Killer Mike's Emotional Speech at Atlanta Mayor's Press Conference (May 29, 2020)


Killer Mike spoke at the Atlanta's Mayor’s press conference.

"I'm mad as hell. I woke up wanting to see the world burn down yesterday because I'm tired of seeing Black men die. He casually put his knee on a human being's neck for nine minutes as he died like a Zebra in the clutch of a Lion's jaw, and we watch like murder porn over and over again. So that's why children are burning it to the ground: they don't know what else to do. And it is the responsibility of us to make this better. Right now. We don't want to see one officer charged. We want to see four officers prosecuted and sentenced. We don't don't want to see Target's burning, we want to see the system that sets up for systemic racism BURNT TO THE GROUND."
