I'm here right down the street.

But I ain't out here to tear it up, you know what I'm saying?

I mean, I understand protesting, you know?

For a peaceful cause but, you know, they, they just tearing it up, man, you know?

They say it's justice but it's like, you know, what is the justice in this?

You know, ain't no justice in it.

You had your knee on a Black man's neck.

You had your knee down on him for nine minutes straight, until he lost his life.

That was a human life.

They can take all that Ku Klux Klan stuff home cause it's over.

Slavery is over.

We're not accepting it no more.

We have resources.

We have purpose and we're just not accepting it anymore.

You gotta have the balance.

You have to have the yin and a yang to make something happen and, yeah.

- You're right.

- So.

- You mean, they're stashing stuff?

- Yes.

They're stashing stuff.

So they said, look in the ah, in the bushes and everything.

And then, what we're looking for is any car that's coming down, they don't have license plates on it.

- I have a report of a silver Prius.

No license plate, driving eastbound on 38th street.

Turn northbound on 42nd Avenue.

- And so, we put out a few more things on the streets so to slow them down.

But he's, it's the same truck.

Just one light works, the other one is damaged.

- So, if there's any infiltrators.

Make them show their, their ID, that they live here and go from there.

- What's your thoughts of me turning all my lights on in the inside of my place?

- We should.

For sure.

- Just light the whole thing up.

- It's insane.

- It is.

It is.

It's crazy that we gotta do this, so.

- Yeah, it is.

- I just can't believe that they're, like, they're actually in our neighborhood.

- I saw these guys standing up here from my, from my stoop and I was just like, 'Wait, hold on.

What is happening at the Riverview?'

So, I came down here and everybody's protecting that, so.

I decided to stay.

(chuckles) Yep.

Everything we had they just took away from us.

(melancholy music) - This is sad, man.

This is.

This is our home, man.

This, the, we're supposed to take care of our (...) city, man.

Not destroy it.

(car horns beeping) (engine roaring) - I worked at Aldi's over there.

You know it tears me down to see that my job is gone.

I was getting paid $16 an hour and it kills me to see that my job is gone.

But it also uplifts me to see that my community came together to change, to change.

- [Crowd] I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!

(explosion) (crowd cheers) (explosion) (spiritual humming music) (instruments begin) (music continues) (humming fades into silence) - Well, we're gonna do a prayer for- gathering part here before we leave.

- The Migizi Communications.

This Native youth organization that was lit on fire last night.

But it'll be rebuilt.

Brick by brick.

We will rebuild again.

(crowd cheers) - Where do you want it, Raj?

- On top.

Top corner.

- Top corner?

Okay.

You gotta wait.

I gotta grab some screws.

- This is the laundromat.

They destroyed, bashed up everything, you know?

Even the, they steal the clothes, even.

Inside the, expensive clothes there.

Steal everything.

And the, all glass is broken and.

Crazy.

(melancholy music continues) - I sat out here all night long last night cause I didn't want them to burn my building down.

I just moved in, in January and I don't want to be homeless again, so.

It's like, I wanted people to know that somebody, people lived here.

That this wasn't just a like a, you know a, a building, you know?

- [Attorney] Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is in custody.

He had been charged with third-degree murder.

We are in the process of continuing to review the evidence.

There may be subsequent charges later.

- (microphone) This is the Minnesota State Patrol.

You are in violation of unlawful assembly.

You are ordered to cease your unlawful behavior and disperse peaceably from the area immediately.

- No respect on either side.

We getting disrespected, they getting disrespected because they took so long to put different people in jail and they ain't done.

They got to finish.

- They should just put the other three officers in jail.

- And the people'll go home!

- And people'll go home.

It's just that simple.

(explosion) - [Cameraman] How's it going?

- Good.

How are you doing?

- We live over by Sanford.

And we were out for a little bike ride this morning and I was confused by why there are so many cars around.

And then I saw all the people carrying bags of groceries and, I mean, I just lost it.

- You need any help loading up?

- It started, there wasn't any bags of food over here and now the whole, like, lot underneath the trees is packed with food and people are still coming to drop off food.

- I'll take it to the peoples on the North side so the North side can have something.

North side don't have anything.

- What mostly, what you need?

Cleaning detergent.

- Cleaning detergent, they probably need pampers over there.

They need.

- Yeah.

I was gonna say diapers, for sure.

- Diapers and stuff.

- We have nowhere to go get food and, you know, there's no, like, like, my mom relies on public transportation.

She can't get to the grocery store.

She can't get her, her medication because they broke in Walgreens and stole it.

- When you feel like there's nothing else that you can do, pitching in and doing what you can and trying to help out your community is what we got left.

- The city needs it, man.

Our city is under siege.

We are on fire and the people want to help.

- Yeah.

We'll keep those separated out for you.

Thank you.

- Yeah.

- Thanks for bringing that for us.

- We want to call our city to stand up, to rise up both for justice and for healing.

- We, we set everything up.

We're giving it out a little bit of here a little bit there.

And I thought we were going to run out really quick.

- Yeah.

- Then all of a sudden, somebody said.

Hey, you know, 'Oh, you want some.

Here's some potatoes.'

He got a bag of apples, he goes, 'No.

I'm donating this.'

And they're apples and oranges and people just bringing food and more food.

The Second Harvest is bringing stuff.

It's just absolutely amazing.

- Yeah.

It is.

- It is.

- It, I'm sorry.

It, it's a blessing.

It's a blessing that people really care about you in this world.

You know?

It's a blessing.

- Oh.

Okay.

That's all right.

- All the people coming from outside our neighborhood to clean and you know, do the best they can to make our place you know, livable again, because it is utterly devastated.

- If this is what it takes then this is what it takes but, I'm also here and I'm back that next day, in the same community, and I'm going to help clean up after you.

I'm gonna help clean up after us.

And this is what the, we, as a community, we are responsible for everything that takes place here.

- Yeah.

- We're gonna move the line!

- Yep.

- Let's, let's start pushing it out.

Bag down here.

- Bag.

Bag.

- People need a bag over here.

If you could, please.

(store alarm blares) - Yeah.

I've lived here for about 20 years.

In this neighborhood, in the 3rd precinct.

Crazy.

It's crazy.

- There it is!

It looks good.

It looks good.

Target.

Target gave us the okay to donate the food.

- Yay!

So, right now, we have people who are calling the non-profits and the food pantries, so they can start sending out trucks.

Started with a couple of people and then we got an army of individuals who want to help.

There's some people on both sides.

Some people who are participating in the riots, some people who aren't, some people who care about peaceful protest.

But what matters is that there are people out here coming together to help fix something that is wrong.

And that's the same thing that needs to happen with the justice system.

We see the problems.

We need people to come together.

I'm so happy for the people that we have out here.

I am just a random person.

These people are phenomenal.

(melancholy music begins) - We ain't gotta give what they looking for.

We could get united, man.

I came over here, man.

I seen everybody united.

All colors, shapes, and sizes.

- I'm not standing here by my own while I've cried every single day this week.

I'm exhausted!

I am tired!

But I'm here.

- Amen.

- I showed up.

Y'all showed up.

We showed up.

- Amen.

(melancholy music merges into optimistic music) - If you see everybody having a broom, sweeping up water, trying to break down every single flame that we have caused, as a community, then that should tell you something.

That we need justice for George Floyd.

And that's the voice that we're pleading for.

(optimistic music merges into suspenseful music) (crowd chants: Say His Name, George Floyd) - [Crowd] George Floyd.

George Floyd.

George Floyd.

George Floyd.

(chanting becomes increasingly louder) - Say his name.

- [Crowd] George Floyd.
