00:15 Today's protest is really an act of cross-movement solidarity.

00:19 It's joined by Hong Kongers, Tibetans, Uyghurs, Chinese dissidents,

00:23 because over the years we have learned we have one common goal we're fighting for,

00:27 which is democracy and freedom, and there's one common enemy that we're all facing with it,

00:32 which is the Chinese Communist Party.

00:34 And that's why we're bending here today, and we're going to welcome,

00:38 unwelcome Xi Jinping in the largest anti-Xi protest we're going to see in years to come,

00:42 because we don't know when he's going to be here again in the United States.

00:46 So this is our one and only shot.

00:48 [Music]

01:02 It's about Tibet's independence.

01:04 It's about stopping the military-style colonization.

01:08 It's about ending the killing of Tibetans in Tibet, the imprisonment of Tibetans in Tibet,

01:14 and most importantly, bringing His Holiness the Dalai Lama back into Tibet in the Potala Palace in Lhasa,

01:21 where he rightfully belongs.

01:24 He is not going to get away with this. Truth is on our side.

01:28 They're just leading because they have money, but humanity will win at the end.

01:34 We truly believe in that. We are not going to be scared.

01:37 We're not going to silence. We're going to continue until our last breath.

01:44 [Silence]
