"Voices on the left, voices on the right... What I’ve not heard is a unanimous commitment to atone for the sins of this country. ... It was an 18-year fight to (make) Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday a national holiday. ... Systemic racism can have an ending. Police brutality can have an ending. Economic repression of Black and brown people can have an ending. ... A movement without action is a movement standing still. To those who say they care: Move more than your mouth. ... Black lives do matter. And this is not another digital, viral trend, moment or hashtag. ... Yes, all lives do matter, but they only matter when black lives matter too."
