Dialogue: 0,0:00:56.16,0:00:58.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,early '90s. And now, we're practically in
Dialogue: 0,0:00:58.67,0:01:01.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the 21st century. Back in those days,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.93,0:01:03.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I noticed people were more united.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:03.96,0:01:07.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,People cared for each other. They
Dialogue: 0,0:01:07.89,0:01:09.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,respected law enforcement. Law

Dialogue: 0,0:01:23.76,0:01:26.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they'd reach out to us with confidence.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.11,0:01:27.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You know, we would sit down together
Dialogue: 0,0:01:27.47,0:01:29.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with some of the judge readers and
Dialogue: 0,0:01:29.80,0:01:31.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we'll do this once a week. We'll sit down
Dialogue: 0,0:01:31.88,0:01:34.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,at either a church or community center
Dialogue: 0,0:01:34.74,0:01:36.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they'll come up to us and they'll say,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.64,0:01:38.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Hey, listen. We're having these problems
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.24,0:01:40.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with these people and they're
Dialogue: 0,0:01:40.29,0:01:41.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,destroying our neighborhood, and we want

Dialogue: 0,0:01:42.78,0:01:44.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the communication that we had with
Dialogue: 0,0:01:44.79,0:01:46.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,them was fantastic.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:46.84,0:01:48.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So there's like a form of unity and trust?
Dialogue: 0,0:01:48.82,0:01:50.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There was, back then.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:50.73,0:01:52.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, my last question to you is do you
Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.71,0:01:54.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,think that this is something that can simply
Dialogue: 0,0:01:54.96,0:01:56.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,be solved by having conversations like
Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.77,0:01:57.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,these between peers?
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.51,0:02:02.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Simply resolved? I don't know it'll be
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.24,0:02:07.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,simply solved but I think it's a great
Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.11,0:02:10.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starting point. It's definitely a
Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.59,0:02:12.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,great starting point because I think the
Dialogue: 0,0:02:12.90,0:02:15.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,gap that we have right now between
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.50,0:02:19.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,police between religious people between
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.09,0:02:21.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,politics; our gap has gone to the point
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.50,0:02:24.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where it's not going to be fixed just
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.03,0:02:25.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,overnight just by sitting down where we're
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.88,0:02:27.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,doing today. It's definitely a great way
Dialogue: 0,0:02:27.92,0:02:30.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to start. You have to start somewhere.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.11,0:02:32.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You have to close that gap somewhere.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:32.97,0:02:35.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Communication's always been the key to
Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.59,0:02:36.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,everything. You got to sit down and
Dialogue: 0,0:02:36.64,0:02:39.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,communicate. Find out what we're doing
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.05,0:02:40.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,wrong. Find out what needs to be
Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.81,0:02:44.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,corrected. Find out how we can correct
Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.15,0:02:46.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it. Is there-can we do it by sitting down?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.68,0:02:49.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Can we meet with our community leaders?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.07,0:02:50.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Meet with our politicians?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.69,0:02:54.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And decide, "Hey, enough is enough. Okay,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:54.19,0:02:55.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we've been vigor and we've been
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.53,0:02:57.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fighting about every little thing that we
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.35,0:02:59.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can think of and we're not getting
Dialogue: 0,0:02:59.06,0:03:01.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,anywhere." And society's getting worse.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.74,0:03:05.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's getting more ugly. It's getting more
Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.36,0:03:07.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,nasty. It's getting more violent. You
Dialogue: 0,0:03:07.81,0:03:09.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,know, people are getting hurt.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.12,0:03:10.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Innocent people're getting hurt for no
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.86,0:03:12.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,reason, you know. And that's just not
Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.64,0:03:15.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,how--I remember being, y'know, my early
Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.50,0:03:17.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,'90s when I first became into law
Dialogue: 0,0:03:17.60,0:03:20.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,enforcement. You know, back then, there
Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.19,0:03:21.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was the crime. There was the hate, you
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.94,0:03:24.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,know. There was a lot of bickering.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.35,0:03:26.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But there wasn't such a big of a gap.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.31,0:03:29.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Not the way it is now. I mean, you
Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.17,0:03:30.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can't turn the TV on, you can't turn
Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.74,0:03:33.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on social media without seeing violence,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.63,0:03:37.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,any type of violence for the most littlest
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.01,0:03:38.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,things. It's just the violence just
Dialogue: 0,0:03:38.37,0:03:40.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,doesn't end. You know, we need to,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:41.53,0:03:46.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as human beings, we need to sit down
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.56,0:03:48.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,somewhere and I think a lot of it
Dialogue: 0,0:03:48.76,0:03:50.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starts in the community. A lot of it
Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.70,0:03:52.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starts with our politicians. A lot of it
Dialogue: 0,0:03:52.72,0:03:54.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,starts with our community leaders.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:54.12,0:03:55.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You know, that's where we have to
Dialogue: 0,0:03:55.89,0:03:56.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,start.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.34,0:03:58.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And our first step can be just building
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.32,0:04:01.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,trust again and having conversations
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.05,0:04:02.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then going out to our own
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.29,0:04:05.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,neighborhoods and see what happens.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.58,0:04:09.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That is the best way to start. Absolutely,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.29,0:04:10.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I agree one hundred percent (100%),
Dialogue: 0,0:04:10.99,0:04:12.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, to conclude to our video, I still
Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.82,0:04:14.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,think that people need to realize that
Dialogue: 0,0:04:14.43,0:04:16.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,racism is a big issue and I think that
Dialogue: 0,0:04:16.29,0:04:17.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,conversations like these are still
Dialogue: 0,0:04:17.97,0:04:20.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,relevant to have with friends, family,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:20.10,0:04:22.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,peers, and acquaintances. All perspectives
Dialogue: 0,0:04:22.32,0:04:24.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are important to end this racial and
Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.12,0:04:25.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,ethnic divide between us. So, thank you for
