“Your lucky the black community is looking for equality and not revenge” dude that is the quote of the decade that shit floored me

I am 72 years on this Planet...Never in all those years of speeches by Black Leaders...this is the one that stuck me with the same emotions coming through this women's words. It has stayed with me...especially Her comment at the end.

I've listened to this a dozen times and it still hits hard. That's why I work everyday to help create a world where everyone can be free and equally deserving of respect. We broke the contract now we need to make it right and be better. We must be better

Watching this after another young man was murdered.

“Lucky black community is looking for equality not revenge”...said a whole mouthful. Yes love!

She broke it down. It was clear, concise, intelligent and informed. This young woman so clearly articulated what is in the hearts and souls of so many around the world.

That was one of the most powerful analogies in a speech I’ve ever heard in my life! This woman has so much power behind her words. Wow!

And she didn't mention 3,445 lynchings from 1880s to 1964 or mass imprisonment of black men, many through plea bargaining when they were innocent but didn't have resources to fight it. Poverty, segregation, indignities, etc. God forgive us. Thank you for teaching us the truth in a powerful way.

“And they are lucky that what black people are looking for is equality and not revenge”...🙏🏾👌🏾👏🏾🙌🏾 my Lord. That was the stamp of approval. And she has sent it on up. Signed, sealed, and delivered.

She broke this down on a real level! THIS IS WHAT A REAL LEADER SOUNDS LIKE! And people say we have no leaders...Bullshit! I back her all day!

3 years later and this is still the most powerful speech I’ve ever heard

Son this just made me cry, you could feel her pain.

Kimberly, thank you for this. Thank you for helping us understand. I am a woman in my 50's. We were never taught ANYTHING about MLK, blacks, racism, or that piece of history in school. I will be honest...I knew there was racism but never recognized it for what it was. I never really understood. I never understood about what exactly happened for all these years. And it breaks my heart to hear the conversations moms have to have with their kids- especially their sons- just so they get home safely. I also realized it's not just our police system that needs to be rebuilt- it's literally everything. Our laws and opportunities were not created for "equality." That is evident- and must change. Thank you again. Keep up the great work. You are a leader.

I never really completely “got it” - I still don’t. I can’t... because I’m a white American. Like many of the other commenters, this choked me up. I’ve watched it multiple times now... How could I possibly understand the experience of being black and subjected to the subtle yet profound undertones and undercurrents of a society which hasn’t “gotten it” either. Like many others in American society, I’ve always thought of myself as progressive, tolerant, and accepting of all races and ethnicities. But there is that “privileged” hidden part of myself that questions why so many blacks live in poverty and end up in the “criminal justice” system - surely they need to be accountable for their own actions right?? I’ve condemned the looters and disagreed with the violence for defeating the “cause”. I admit it, but this video has opened up doors for me, and I thank Kimberly Jones for turning on a light in me and for providing me with a perspective I never had before I watched this.

They shouldnt have beeped NONE OF HER WORDS OUT! She means what she said and said what she mean and it was powerful!

I haven’t seen this video since last year but looking back at it, she’s spot on. She’s right to this day and she’s right about our history.

When your soul speaks u do not need a script!!!! All our souls get your soul sister ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I start to understand what's going on in US after this video. In Russia I haven't seen this point of view ever. I'll tell everybody I know now about it. Social contract. This is the core thing and this is why those windows are broken. Take care, people. And let me write these three letters for the first time in my life with deep empathy - BLM!

As far as I'm concerned this video has already made history, I will never forget this shit, I will scream it from the rooftops. If you're not mad, youre not listening
