violence has come up again
46

with the shooting
of a teenage Negro boy
47
00:01:56,942 --> 00:01:58,335
by a police lieutenant.
48
00:01:58,466 --> 00:01:59,597

this situation now

to the crisis point?

Tell us what happened.
51
00:02:02,818 --> 00:02:04,124
[man] Well, I think
it would be largely a matter
52
00:02:04,254 --> 00:02:07,214
of wanton acts of murder
and police brutality.
53
00:02:07,344 --> 00:02:08,650
And one of them
drew a knife.
54
00:02:08,780 --> 00:02:10,260
- That is the deceased.
- I would sincerely hope so.
55
00:02:10,391 --> 00:02:12,784
We have to have law and order
in this city of ours.
56
00:02:12,915 --> 00:02:14,351
[reporter] Do you feel
that the majority
57
00:02:14,482 --> 00:02:15,787

are trigger-happy?
58
00:02:15,918 --> 00:02:17,702
[man] No,
we have never claimed that,
59
00:02:17,833 --> 00:02:19,617
nor have we ever claimed
that there is an official...
60
00:02:19,748 --> 00:02:21,315
Please, B.

00:02:21,445 --> 00:02:23,752
Nothing good
can come out of this.

We're going.
63
00:02:25,406 --> 00:02:27,625
A protest at
the police station right now
64
00:02:27,756 --> 00:02:29,279
is a bad idea.
65
00:02:29,410 --> 00:02:31,063
A bad idea is the cops
66
00:02:31,194 --> 00:02:33,457
shooting an innocent Black boy
for no reason,
67
00:02:33,588 --> 00:02:36,112
whether they say
he was holding a knife or not.
68
00:02:36,243 --> 00:02:37,244
What do you think's
gonna happen?
69
00:02:37,374 --> 00:02:38,680
The suspension
of Officer Gilligan.
70
00:02:38,810 --> 00:02:40,856
They don't suspend cops
for killing Black people.
71
00:02:40,986 --> 00:02:42,162
That has to change.
72
00:02:42,292 --> 00:02:43,380
Yeah, well, the only thing
that's gonna change
73
00:02:43,511 --> 00:02:45,252
is the names of the victims.
74
00:02:45,382 --> 00:02:48,342
Cops only understand one thing,
and that's violence.
75
00:02:48,472 --> 00:02:49,734
You sound like Malcolm.
76
00:02:49,865 --> 00:02:51,258
Well, he's right.
77
00:02:51,388 --> 00:02:52,998
You gotta fight fire

00:02:53,129 --> 00:02:54,565
That is not true.
79
00:02:54,696 --> 00:02:58,221
The Civil Rights Act
is going to pass at any moment,
80
00:02:58,352 --> 00:03:00,223
and without a single shot
being fired.
81
00:03:00,354 --> 00:03:01,790
Yeah, well,
it hasn't passed yet,
82
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:04,923
and there's still time
for the shots to be fired.
83
00:03:05,054 --> 00:03:07,230
We are going to this protest
84
00:03:07,361 --> 00:03:09,363
even if you think
it's pointless.
85
00:03:09,493 --> 00:03:11,234
I'm not saying it's pointless.
86
00:03:11,365 --> 00:03:13,497
I admire
what you guys are doing.
87
00:03:13,628 --> 00:03:17,501
But to be honest,
when I was in Alcatraz,
88
00:03:17,632 --> 00:03:21,853
we'd suffer
a thousand outrages each day.
89
00:03:21,984 --> 00:03:23,246
But then, one day,
90
00:03:23,377 --> 00:03:27,294
there'd just be
one too many.
91
00:03:27,424 --> 00:03:30,253
And the guards
and the prisoners
92
00:03:30,384 --> 00:03:32,386
would try to
rip each other apart.
93
00:03:34,736 --> 00:03:37,608
That's what I feel is going on
in the streets right now.
94
00:03:39,784 --> 00:03:41,656
Peaceful protest is vital.

responded violently.

from Canada today,

our piece when it arrives.

Mr. Wallace,
barely a hundred years ago,
1003
