at the moment it arrived as a nation where we face deep racial inequities in america and system systemic racism that has plagued our nation for far far too long i said that over the course of the past year that the blinders have been taken off the nation the american people what made what many americans didn't see or had simply refused to see couldn't be ignored any longer those uh eight minutes and 46 seconds that took george floyd's life opened the eyes of millions of americans and millions of people around all over the world it was the knee on the neck of justice and it wouldn't be forgotten stirred the conscious and of tens of millions of americans and in my view it marked a turning point in this country's attitude toward racial justice when the six-year-old six-year-old daughter gianna who i met with when i met with the family i leaned down to say hi to her and she said look to me she said daddy changed the world that's what gianna said this daughter daddy changed the world and i believe she was right not because this kind of injustice stopped it clearly hasn't but because the ground has shifted because it changed minds and mindsets because it laid the groundwork for progress cover 19 has further ripped a path of destruction through every community in america but no one has been spared but the devastation in communities of color has been nothing short of stunning just look at the numbers forty percent of frontline workers nurses first responders grocery store workers are americans of color and many are still living on the edge one in ten black americans is out of work today one in 11 latino americans is out of work today one in seven households in america about one in four black one in five latino households in america report that they don't have enough food to eat in the united states of america black and latino americans are dying of cover 19 and rates nearly three times that of white americans it's not white american's fault but just a fact and the americans now know it especially younger americans one of the reasons i'm so optimistic about this nation is that today's generation of young americans is the most progressive thoughtful inclusive generation that america has ever seen and they are pulling us toward justice in so many ways forcing us to confront the huge gap in economy and excuse me economic inequity between those at the top and everyone else forcing us to confront the existential crisis of climate and yes forced us to confront systemic racism and white supremacy it's just been weeks since all america witnessed a group of thugs insurrectionist a political extremist and white supremacist violently attack the capital of our democracy and so now now is the time to act it's time to act because that's what the faith and morality call us to do across nearly every faith the same principles whole we're all god's children we should treat each other as we would like to be treated ourselves and this is time to act and this time to act because it's what the core values of this nation call us to do and i believe the vast majority of americans democrats republicans and independents share these values and want us to act as well shepherd smith here thanks for watching cnbc on youtube
