This is a powerful video. Tamika Mallory gave this speech in Minneapolis shortly after George Floyd

was murdered. It was probably posted here at the time, but with the trial underway, and more senseless police killings happening, it seemed right to post it now. As far as I’m concerned this is one of the great speeches in American history. (The sound at the beginning is a little muted, though not bad, but it clears up about three minutes in.)
