00:00:01.340 - 00:00:24.780

a lot of people are wondering how this could have developed, how could it have come to the point where there would be a riot I'd love to you about. Okay, once again, a lot of people are wondering how the situation could have come to the point

00:00:24.780 - 00:00:42.520

where a riot would have happened? How could it have, Well, it happened as a result, I think of nobody really believe in the conditions existed in honest point. And uh in other ghetto ized areas as it. In fact, did I say that uh the uh watch

00:00:42.520 - 00:00:56.660

disturbance calls a considerable amount of programs to be put into Watts? Well, that's the same kind of programs uh are needed in Hunts Point area, more intensified uh in the Hunts Point area, just as it is in any other area of deprived conditions. And uh apparently

00:00:56.660 - 00:01:10.580

though it takes uh serious demonstrations to create the feeling within all of the greater community that there has something has to be done. So what are we talking about? New legislation, uh federal money, things of this matter. That is exactly what we're talking about. We're talking

00:01:10.580 - 00:01:24.850

about an M. D. T. A. Training program. That is realistic. We're talking about the summer Youth project is extended into a year round project. We're talking about uh 10 times the amount of funds that are currently be given to youth for service for that kind of

00:01:24.850 - 00:01:41.000

programs so that people have an attachment to the community and are involved uh in society as such and are willing to participate in saving society. The best demonstration of that was the performance of the members of youth for service on thursday night and on last night

00:01:41.010 - 00:01:57.220

uh they spend all of their time. They their physical appearance is not changed in any manner from uh their their physical appearance is not changed in any manner from any other matter. Um let's move please. Now you see, we're already getting me, we're already getting it.

00:01:57.220 - 00:02:15.900

If we let you talk they want to talk or we're in trouble now we can't have any more trouble, you know? Well, you know as well as how long how long? I don't want trouble. Let's go. Let's go to an interview set up to get in

00:02:15.900 - 00:02:31.300

touch with us. And we will set up a spot that way. I don't want nobody coming and you don't want to do it. We don't want to talk to you. Gonna keep agitating. We don't want to talk to you. We want to talk to these men

00:02:31.300 - 00:03:00.760

here. Who can talk? Who can do you? Can you take the camera way? Okay then take the camera. We don't want to talk to you. We don't want to talk to you. Take care of you. Ain't doing them withdrawing the ground yourself. Nothing heavy. Do I

00:03:00.760 - 00:03:14.150

want to kill somebody? Yes. Do I want to kill some white people? Not as of yet. No. Not yet. Unless something don't be done about this and today, right today, I might change my viewpoint about wanting to kill some white people. I know there's certain things

00:03:14.150 - 00:03:25.970

I might say now that it would incriminate me. May give me a police record. I've never been in police trouble before. Yeah. I'm not trying to make a name for myself. I'm out trying to help my people, the people. I was going back and I'm proud

00:03:25.970 - 00:03:36.730

to be black and I think everybody else who's black should be just as proud as I am. I don't think they should have any Uncle Tom's on the police force or in the the white man's army. I don't think they should send a *** over there

00:03:36.730 - 00:03:49.320

to Vietnam to kill the Vietnam knees. When when they over here gettin killed at their own home. Their brother, their sister, their mother, their family getting killed at their own home. And they are over there fighting for a white man. I think they are looking brothers

00:03:49.320 - 00:04:00.880

come back over here and shoot and start fighting for their own people, for their own home, for their own property, their own family, for their own pride, for their own cause it's gonna be more trouble tonight. I don't know if it's going to be trouble. If

00:04:00.880 - 00:04:11.120

I did know. I wouldn't say because I don't think that I wouldn't trust a white man as long as I live. Never again. I know I got to go to them for a job. I know I got to go to a white man school. All right.

00:04:11.120 - 00:04:17.760

I'll go. But if they don't want to treat me right? I ain't got too big because I wasn't a customer begging. I'm I got pride
