Funeral to Bury Racism – June 6, 2020, Berkeley, CA
ONN – Berkeley Councilmember Ben Bartlett Helped Produce “Funeral to Bury Racism – June 6, 2020, Berkeley, CA”
Here is what Eric Panzer wrote on YouTube:
On Saturday June 6th, 2020, Berkeley held a “Funeral to Bury Racism” in support of the Black Lives Matter movement and to protest discrimination and abuses in police departments across the US.
The demonstration began at Malcolm X Elementary school and proceeded up Martin Luther King, Jr. Way, ending at a rally at Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park in Downtown Berkeley.
This video shows 24 minutes of continuous footage compressed into 2:25. By my estimate 3,000–4,000 participated in this march, converging with hundreds of others who were already at MLK Civic Center or along the march route.
I’m happy to share my footage, especially with community groups and activists. Please contact me by Twitter DM @ericpanzer to inquire about regular-speed video.
Stay tuned.
Note from Zennie62Media and Oakland News Now: this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
