"I Can't Breathe" were the last words of both George Floyd in Minneapolis, and Dunghutti man David Dungay Jr in Long Bay Prison (Sydney, Australia) right before they were murdered at the hands of police. Five years since his (filmed) murder, not one officer in the footage of David Dungay's murder has been convicted. In this song DOBBY and BARKAA call for immediate action to bring justice to the families of the 438 Indigenous people who died in police custody since the 1991 Royal Commission into Indigenous Deaths In Custody.
"I’m so grateful to have created this track with sister BARKAA. Our I Can't Breathe video really captures that frustration of ignorance felt constantly in our community. There are staunch appearances by some very talented mob, and I’m so thankful to have them all a part of this. The direction and creative vision of Luke Currie-Richardson and Benjamin Ling resulted in a powerful, vibrant music video that screams of urgency". - DOBBY
