Wednesday (10/14) would have been George Floyd's 47th birthday, and to commemorate the date and pay homage, Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello teamed up with Brave New Films (an organization whose "mission is to champion social justice issues by using a model of media, education, and grassroots volunteer involvement that inspires, empowers, motivates and teaches civic participation and makes a difference") to release a short film entitled No Justice, No Peace.
The film was created with the intention of shedding light on the current racial injustices occurring in the United States in contrast to the Trump administration's position on these issues, with Floyd's and other cases of police brutality serving as the film's backbone. It finds Tom's track, "Marching on Ferguson" played over footage of Floyd's murder, protests that occurred recently, and news footage covering the related murders of Oscar Grant, Eric Garner, and Breonna Taylor. The track was initially released in 2014 after the shooting and killing of Michael Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson to raise money to "support defending the protestors in the Ferguson area who have faced attacks, wrongful arrest, and violence from the police."
