[crowd cheering] [newscaster] There are
calls to rethink who we choose
to honor from our past. Monuments to men
who were once honored, now viewed
by a new generation as symbols of racism and colonialism. [William] People are
protesting because they know it don't have to be like this. People only protest what
they believe can be changed. If folk didn't protest, that meant
we really would be in trouble. [woman] I don't believe
these are just protests against police brutality. We're seeing the convergence
of a class rebellion with racism at the center of it. I believe without a doubt that change will come

00:00:05.296 --> 00:00:07.631
who we choose
to honor from our past.
00:00:08.674 --> 00:00:11.093
Monuments to men
who were once honored,
00:00:11.218 --> 00:00:13.846
now viewed
by a new generation as symbols
00:00:13.971 --> 00:00:15.089
of racism and colonialism.
00:00:17.058 --> 00:00:19.101
[William] People are
protesting because they know
00:00:19.226 --> 00:00:20.728
it don't have to be like this.
00:00:21.052 --> 00:00:24.648
People only protest what
they believe can be changed.

00:00:31.781 --> 00:00:33.616
against police brutality.

We're seeing the convergence
of a class rebellion
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:39.789
with racism at the center of it.
00:00:39.914 --> 00:00:42.997
I believe without a doubt
00:00:42.166 --> 00:00:44.001
that change will come
from this protest.
