Last on Roots:
3
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,719
- Master made me head trainer today.
- That nice.
4
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:10,555
I'll pit them birds
until I can buy myself free.
5
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,109
You'll stay and fight chickens.
6
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,715
It don't matter how much I saves.
7
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,558
You're mine, George.
8
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,718
Can't you get that
through your thick skull?
9
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,878
It got through that time.
10
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,435
- You'll be worse.
- Killing massa?
11
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:30,792
- That's no more than killing a dog.
- No, damn it! No!
12
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,718
He's your daddy.
13
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,432
Don't know about you,
but I want to win and be champion.
14
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,272
If Speckled Red wins...
15
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,357
...I'll set you free.
16
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:46,518
The bird of Sir Eric Russell
is the winner!
17
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,752
Don't want no crying.
None of you all.
18
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,793
Your husband and your pappy
and I'm telling you now.
19
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,958
A few years. That's no time at all.
20
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,758
Be back.
21
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,112
I'm married to a free man,
George Moore.
22
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,510
I ain't about to live
with no slave ever again.
23
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,671
War, boys, it's war!
24
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:17,117
Are we gonna whup them Yankees?
25
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,428
I believe you want a whipping.
26
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,437
You won't do nothing...
27
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:25,029
...because I won't let you, Brent.
28
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,033
Captain's brother has been missing.
29
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,879
If any of you seen him, speak up.
30
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,795
You ain't seen the last of me, nigger.
31
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,436
"To all commanders in the field,from General Robert E. Lee:
32
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,319
After four years of arduous service...
33
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,069
... marked by unsurpassed courageand fortitude...
34
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,192
... the Army has beencompelled to yield...
35
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,630
... to overwhelming resources.
36
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,992
I need not tell the survivorsof many hard-fought battles...
37
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,432
... who remained steadfastto the last...
38
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:16,390
... that I have consented to thisresult from no mistrust of them...
39
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,157
...but feeling that devotion
could accomplish nothing...
40
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,115
...that could compensate for the loss
that attends the continuance.
41
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,472
I determined
to avoid the useless sacrifice...
42
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:35,760
...of those whose past services have
endeared them to their countrymen.
43
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,150
You will take with you...
44
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,312
...satisfaction coming
from consciousness...
45
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,034
...of duty faithfully performed.
46
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:49,830
And I earnestly pray that
a merciful God will extend you...
47
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,389
...his blessing and protection."
48
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,230
It's over, folks. The war is over.
49
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,315
God save the Confederacy.
50
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,672
Freedom. Freedom.
51
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,472
We's free!
52
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,312
Freedom!
53
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,433
Freedom!
54
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,872
Free! We's free!
55
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,471
Freedom! Freedom!
56
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,950
Hey, we're free! We're free!
57
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,148
Freedom!
58
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,950
- Who that, Rufus?
- Lewis, from the Harvey place.
59
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,550
- What was he bellowing?
- Something about freedom.
60
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:53,994
Free?
61
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,637
- Nigger must be crazy.
- Yeah, must be.
62
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,676
Come on, mule. Come on!
63
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,832
Lewis, what you standing around for?
64
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,838
We's free.
65
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,353
- Who say that?
- Came over the telegraph.
66
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,120
The war's over. The South gave up.
67
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,753
Slavery's no more!
68
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,276
- You be fooling with me, I'll...
- Not fooling you.
69
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,956
I's here to tell you.
It is the God's truth.
70
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:39,798
Free?
71
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,999
- Mama?
- Yes?
72
00:06:11,280 --> 00:06:14,352
Why you look so sad?
This is a celebration.
73
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,551
Thinking about your dad.
74
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,915
Wishing he was here.
75
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,472
Don't fret. Chicken George
be coming back...
76
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,513
...now that freedom's come.
77
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,793
You come dance with me instead
of slaving at the table.
78
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,073
Come on, just one dance.
79
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,798
I guess I don't have
to ask if you've heard the news.
80
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,270
I don't know what it means,
what it'll do.
81
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,710
I guess no one does right now.
82
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,109
I'll try to hold on to the farm.
I'm not sure how.
83
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,833
You all may want
to go off on your own.
84
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,479
But you can stay if you want.
I can't pay you anything.
85
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,632
Everything I have is tied up
in the crops.
86
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,591
Maybe you could
farm some of the land...
87
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,075
...and share the crop with me.
88
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,078
We all have to think about what to do.
89
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,196
I don't know what it means.
90
00:08:32,560 --> 00:08:34,869
Say hello to your mom for me.
91
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,191
What'll it be, Harry?
92
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,239
Well, let's see now.
93
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,356
- I need...
- Mr. Brent.
94
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,996
I been waiting a long time.
95
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,638
- I'll take care of you when I'm ready.
- I was here first.
96
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,749
Now look here, you no-account black.
97
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,192
It's all right, Evan.
I'll drop by a little later.
98
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,271
No need for that now.
99
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:17,588
Well?
100
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,278
Loaf of bread and a bag of grits.
101
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,433
Thirty-six cents.
102
00:09:58,640 --> 00:09:59,993
Hello, Evan.
103
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,233
Senator! Doggone,
it's good to see you!
104
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,597
Like old times.
I thought you was in England.
105
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,594
- I've just returned.
- Did you see that? Did you see?
106
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,394
You won't believe how they carry on.
107
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:18,593
Can't even call them niggers.
At least, not to their faces.
108
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,470
Well, I wouldn't fret, Evan.
109
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,910
Let the "niggras"...
110
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:26,949
...have their day.
- What you mean?
111
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,234
The same thing as old Uncle Richard
told me as a boy.
112
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,752
Old Brer Rabbit, when he can't
get through one way...
113
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,434
...he change his way...
114
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,189
...and by and by,
he get where he want to be!
115
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,789
I get you now, sir! I get you!
116
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,910
That's right. We is free at last.
117
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,314
All right. We is free at last!
118
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,192
- Yeah! We's free!
- Free.
119
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,638
Ain't got no more massas.
Nobody going to whup us again.
120
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,149
Nobody gonna abuse our women.
121
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:03,389
No...
122
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:04,919
That's right.
123
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,270
Freedom taste good, don't it?
124
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,516
- Yeah, I can taste it!
- Baby!
125
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,311
Well, maybe it taste good...
126
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,710
...but it sure ain't gonna
fill our bellies.
127
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,473
How is we gonna feed our children?
128
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,071
How we gonna find shelter?
129
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,791
Now we is free,
what's we gonna do?
130
00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:33,597
I say we go
where the pickings is better.
131
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,597
Yeah, yeah.
132
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,080
Go where? Do what?
133
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,074
Well, I don't know right off.
134
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,593
- Must be someplace.
- You is ignorant.
135
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,756
- Bone ignorant.
- Here now.
136
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,599
Ain't your fault, we's all ignorant.
137
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,992
We is just what
the massas wanted us to be.
138
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,591
None of us been taught to earn
our keep in the white man's world.
139
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,838
We gonna leave, we better learn...
140
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,759
...how to do for ourselves first.
141
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,988
Well, what you say, Tom?
What you say we do?
142
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,428
I say we stays here...
143
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,871
...and farms, like
we been doing all our lives.
144
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,354
Not for Harvey.
145
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,354
It gonna be part
our own land for our own selves.
146
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,272
Our dirt we farms!
147
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,439
Well, now, hold on a moment, Tom.
All I knows...
148
00:12:33,680 --> 00:12:36,638
...all I ever seen
is this plantation...
149
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,229
...and that little town of shops.
150
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,749
I want to see the world, Tom.
151
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,793
What is freedom
if you can't go nowhere?
152
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,270
Of course you can go.
153
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,238
That the whole idea of freedom.
154
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,830
You wants to wander for a while,
ain't nobody gonna stop you.
155
00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,832
Same for all of you.
156
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,118
But maybe we don't have to go.
157
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,998
Maybe now we can find
what we wants right here.
158
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:11,472
I say we gotta give freedom a chance.
159
00:13:11,680 --> 00:13:15,116
And here is as good a place
to start as any.
160
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:17,594
Besides...
161
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:25,316
...what's our daddy gonna do
when he gets back and we's all gone?
162
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,998
How we know he coming?
163
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,916
All them years he been gone,
and no word.
164
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:40,235
He coming back because
he say he gonna come back.
165
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,910
Your dad ain't never
said nothing in his life...
166
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,951
...he don't mean. Hear me?
167
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:48,593
Just asking, Mama.
168
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,997
I don't want to hear
no more about leaving.
169
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,636
Ain't nobody going nowhere
till my man come back.
170
00:13:57,680 --> 00:13:59,671
We is a family...
171
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,278
...and we is gonna stay a family.
172
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,872
Tom? Martha and me sure would like
to throw our lot in with you.
173
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,071
If you wants us, of course.
174
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,948
Wants you?
175
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,516
You just try getting away.
176
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:38,157
And you'll hear hounds baying
at your heels before long.
177
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,960
- Come with me.
- Where we going?
178
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,509
I's gonna spark you in moonlight.
179
00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:00,235
Yes, you is! That gonna be some
sparking with two young ones.
180
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,312
Don't argue with me. Just come along.
181
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,314
Damned if I'll give
my niggers any part of my farm.
182
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,796
It's been in my family
over a hundred years.
183
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,077
I'd as soon sell out
to some carpetbaggers.
184
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,829
I'm with you. The niggers
is putting on enough airs...
185
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,792
...without owning land.
186
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,992
They can all own land,
far as I'm concerned.
187
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,158
- What you saying, Archie?
- Their graves.
188
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,959
They can own them all they want.
189
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,113
I respect your sentiments,
but we gotta be realistic.
190
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,359
Somebody has to work our land
and niggers are done as slaves.
191
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,757
I don't like it either,
but I got no cash for wages.
192
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:46,996
I got to parcel out shares.
193
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,516
I'll never owe a black nothing
except a whipping.
194
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,438
I always pay my debts.
195
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:54,955
You are living in the past.
196
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,680
You can't go around whipping blacks.
197
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,478
Feds won't allow it.
198
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,671
He's talking sense, boys.
199
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,469
There'll be a judge here,
and the Army'll back him up.
200
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,232
We ought to string up a few of them.
Just to set an example.
201
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:11,999
Now you're talking.
202
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,273
There's more minus than plus to that.
203
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,759
It sounds good...
204
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,833
I'll tell you about plus and minus.
205
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,679
"Plus" is what
I come out of the war with.
206
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,636
I come out "plus"
a Yankee ball in my knee.
207
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,154
Come out "plus" a limp
I'll have the rest of my life.
208
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,438
And I'm "minus" my brother, sheriff.
209
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,711
And I'm telling you
no white man killed him.
210
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,993
No white man killed another in the
last month of war. Niggers did it!
211
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,596
Every step I take,
every time my leg twinges on me...
212
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,320
...I recollect who's responsible...
213
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,513
...for the "pluses" and "minuses"
I gotta live with now.
214
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,314
I recollect who done it to me.
215
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:07,795
Niggers!
216
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,156
Well, gentlemen,
I think I'd better leave now.
217
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:22,673
I'm bound to uphold the law.
Gave my solemn word to do that.
218
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,112
It seems to me that the law
ain't what this meeting is about.
219
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,231
Just a minute, sheriff.
220
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,072
I'm going with you.
221
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:36,909
Senator.
222
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,153
These men respect you,
and surely you're not for violence.
223
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:46,478
I agree that misdirected violence
is dangerous, Mr. Jackson.
224
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,278
What do you say?
We ain't heard from you.
225
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,636
What should we do, senator?
226
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,630
It's my intention to acquire property.
A great deal of property.
227
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:07,592
If it was anybody but you,
I'd say you was plumb crazy.
228
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,588
The land ain't worth
a horse's apple without slaves.
229
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,594
Our niggra, under the misguided
new business arrangements...
230
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,877
...is to receive a share
of crops he works.
231
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,674
But before that profit is paid...
232
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,836
...his costs are deducted:
233
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,834
Grain, tools, wagons,
mules, horses, feed.
234
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,397
Somehow he never manages
to catch up on the costs, right?
235
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:38,392
It doesn't matter who works land.
What counts is who owns it.
236
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,909
Property is power, always.
237
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:43,920
Whoever has the land has the people.
238
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,879
I guess you know what you're doing.
239
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,229
Be assured I do.
240
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:53,077
By and by, Brer Rabbit,
he gonna get where he want to be.
241
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,438
Tom! Tom!
242
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,469
Where've you been with the water?
243
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,676
We got some thirsty mouths.
244
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,750
- Tom!
- Reeny?
245
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,436
What? What is it? What?
246
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,319
Rufus just came in from town.
247
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,948
Telegraph say...
248
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,914
...a white man killed
President Lincoln last night.
249
00:19:27,120 --> 00:19:29,634
Shot him in the back of the head.
250
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:31,953
He's dead, Tom.
251
00:19:40,360 --> 00:19:43,238
Still daylight left to work.
252
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,916
Did you hear her, Tom?
253
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,916
- Lincoln's dead!
- I heard. I know he's dead.
254
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,356
It won't be for nothing!
255
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,637
I won't let his dying be for nothing!
256
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,394
Tom? What is it?
257
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,199
To your cabins, everybody. Quick!
258
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,031
- Tom?
- I don't know.
259
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,035
You keep out of this, Harvey!
260
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,993
Lewis! Tom! Come on, come on!
261
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,476
Let's get a line here.
Get some water on this!
262
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,070
Jesse, come on, come on!
Everybody! Hannah!
263
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,111
The barn's on fire!
264
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,949
- Everybody move.
- Come on. Hurry up!
265
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,037
Pass the bucket. Pass it.
266
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,356
Move it, move it, everybody.
267
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,909
Buckets! It's getting bigger!
268
00:24:45,120 --> 00:24:46,872
Hurry, before it spreads!
269
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,638
Get the bucket! Back! Get back!
270
00:24:58,120 --> 00:25:00,634
- Back! Watch out!
- Faster, faster!
271
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,511
Free at last.
272
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:26,276
I don't understand it.
I just don't understand it.
273
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,359
We won't let them get away with this.
274
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,398
We worked too hard to raise our crops.
275
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,313
Nobody gonna ride
in here and trample...
276
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,034
...everything we got in the world.
277
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,713
We ought to get guns and fight back.
278
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,911
Who we gonna fight?
279
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,555
Damn! I don't know.
280
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,829
We can't let them do this.
281
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,878
They won't let us live here.
We should get out!
282
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,471
No! We ain't gonna do no such thing.
283
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,229
We's staying because
we has a right to stay.
284
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,313
This changes nothing.
285
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,752
It means there's some rebs around
don't know the war is over.
286
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,428
They won't push us off our land.
287
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,153
We is free men.
288
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,033
Besides...
289
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,630
...they won't get away with it.
- What you mean?
290
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,114
Look here.
291
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,632
- I don't see nothing but hoofmarks.
- Right.
292
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,354
- What's so special then?
- Nothing.
293
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,030
Hoofmarks are all the same.
But suppose they weren't?
294
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,753
Suppose each hoofmark had something...
295
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,552
...that set it apart.
296
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,239
- What you getting at, Tom?
- Those nightriders, that's what.
297
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,838
Stands to reason...
298
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,998
...these riders
is some of our neighbors.
299
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:09,591
Also, most of them bring
their horses to me for shoeing.
300
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:14,630
Now suppose every horse
I shoes me from this day on...
301
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,838
...I put a little special mark on it.
302
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:19,754
Maybe here.
303
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,796
Then we'd have a way of knowing
what horse the shoe belong to.
304
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:33,030
And if we know where the shoe fits...
305
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:48,952
Why are you selling?
306
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,118
The place got run down during the war.
307
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,312
I parceled shares to the niggras...
308
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,272
...but nightriders came.
309
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,512
You don't know who?
310
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:04,316
No. They've been rampaging through
the country, destroying crops...
311
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,750
...scaring the niggras half to death.
312
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,270
Last week they tore up
everything I planted.
313
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,790
I don't have the heart
for farming anymore, senator.
314
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,118
I'm sorry to hear about
your troubles, Samuel. Very sorry.
315
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,360
But business is business.
316
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:26,316
In anticipation of our discussion,
I had this contract drawn up.
317
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,949
$5000 isn't much
for a man's life work, senator.
318
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,840
I couldn't agree with you more.
319
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:46,074
Unhappily, that's quite
beside the point.
320
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:51,795
You've indicated that the place
isn't in the best of condition.
321
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:55,908
And in all good faith, 5000...
322
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,156
...is the best I can manage.
323
00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:04,596
Think about it. You might wait
for a more satisfactory offer.
324
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,110
We both know there won't
be any better offers.
325
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:10,198
I'll accept.
326
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,913
Good. That's it, then.
327
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,390
There's just one other thing.
328
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,673
My niggras owe me for seed.
A couple hundred dollars.
329
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,316
They've worked hard.
I wanna wipe the slate clean.
330
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:46,115
- Consider it done. Here's my hand.
- Thank you.
331
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,190
Ain't you done yet, boy?
332
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,156
Yes, sir, Mr. Drake. I's trying, sir.
333
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,518
Got to fix it just right.
334
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,672
I guess that's about it.
Much obliged, boys.
335
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:26,959
Lila.
336
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,277
It's time, Lila.
337
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,273
Lila...
338
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,629
Oh, Sam, how can we? All those years.
339
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,758
I know, honey.
There's nothing we can do.
340
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,399
I'm gonna miss this place,
and you folks.
341
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,433
I'm sorry I had to sell,
but I didn't have much choice.
342
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,830
The new owner will come
in a few days to talk to you.
343
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,589
Meantime, I suggest you put
in your new crops.
344
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,833
I'm sure you'll find Senator Justin
a decent man to work for.
345
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,273
He agreed to wipe out your debts
so you can start from fresh.
346
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,349
Mrs. Harvey and I want to thank you
for your kindness...
347
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,676
...and your help over the years.
348
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,630
Goodbye and good luck to you.
349
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,470
Goodbye, Mr. Harvey.
350
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,991
Mrs. Harvey.
351
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,114
Now, what's the matter with y'all?
352
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,557
Where's your manners?
353
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,552
Say goodbye to the Harveys
and wish them well.
354
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,073
- Bye, Massa Harvey.
- Bye, massa.
355
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,118
- Bye, Massa Harvey.
- Bye, Massa Harvey.
356
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:35,273
You was better than some, massa.
357
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,908
Now that we know who they is,
I say let's kill them!
358
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:25,308
No.
359
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,593
Why not? I didn't know you was
particular about killing whites.
360
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,754
There will be no killing.
We go to the law.
361
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,148
White man's law?
362
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:39,789
That's right.
363
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,116
Sorry I'm late. I had
to help Martha with some chores.
364
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,629
- What we got to do...
- What's that white man doing here?
365
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:52,915
What white man?
366
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:56,396
They's only one white man
in here as I can see.
367
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,037
Old George?
368
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,391
When the killing starts,
like holds to like.
369
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,832
You got no call to talk like that.
He can't help it he white.
370
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,271
I don't care. I want him out.
371
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,950
And who is you to
be giving orders around here?
372
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,960
I ain't the only one
that feels that way!
373
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:31,272
I ain't listening to nobody
say a word against Old George!
374
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,396
No, Tom, it's all right.
375
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,155
I ain't one to tarry
where I ain't wanted.
376
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,038
Old George...?
377
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,557
Now I say we ain't going to no law!
378
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,752
I say we even up our own tally!
379
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:57,115
Lewis, you best sit down and shut your
mouth. You said enough for one day.
380
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,711
You're lucky that Mama
weren't here to hear you.
381
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:09,400
I said, sit down, little brother.
382
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,473
I ain't finished with you
about Old George.
383
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,799
We gots to go to the law,
don't you see?
384
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,518
Ain't supposed to be
no white man's law.
385
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,275
Only supposed to be one law.
386
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,433
- The law!
- You daft, Tom?
387
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,229
You try to set the law on whites,
they gonna lynch you.
388
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,558
Maybe, maybe not.
But we got to find out, don't we?
389
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:50,512
If we don't give the law a chance,
freedom ain't worth a damn!
390
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:03,037
Who going into town with me
to see the sheriff?
391
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,874
You is a plumb stubborn fool.
392
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,435
- Damn you!
- What are you so all fired up about?
393
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:56,790
Why you got to be the one to step
forward? You ain't even the oldest.
394
00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:00,237
Why you got to be
the big man every time?
395
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:09,193
'Cause I wants to look my daddy
in the eye when next we meet.
396
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,233
'Cause I want our children
growing up in freedom.
397
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:19,716
'Cause too many suffered
to bring us this far to go back.
398
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,398
'Cause somebody got
to stand up, Irene.
399
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,318
Is that so?
400
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,950
Well, somebody got to mind
his wife and babies too.
401
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,956
Now who gonna do that after
they shoots you or hangs you up?
402
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,071
- Irene...
- Oh!
403
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,196
- Don't go!
- Irene.
404
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:48,075
- Oh, please. Please.
- I gots to.
405
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,990
Oh, Tom. I'm so scared.
406
00:37:55,920 --> 00:38:00,835
Tom... I don't want them
to hurt you.
407
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,274
I ain't nothing without you, Tom.
408
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,595
I's scared too...
409
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:15,233
...but I just can't not go.
410
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,959
I hate you for doing this.
411
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:32,070
I'd give anything, say anything,
do anything to make you stay.
412
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,433
But I's proud of you, Tom Harvey.
413
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:49,115
Oh, I's terrible proud of you.
414
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,509
- Now...
- What?
415
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,719
There's only one thing.
416
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,229
I am going with you.
417
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,273
- You's talking crazy...
- I'm going.
418
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,917
- Woman, you is...
- Yes, Tom?
419
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,709
One fine woman.
420
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,716
That's what you is.
421
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,635
You's one fine woman.
422
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,710
Well, well, well.
423
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,679
You are one smart man, Tom Harvey.
424
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:06,959
Fancy you figuring out
something like this.
425
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,796
There's no doubt about it.
426
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,997
You got them dead to rights.
You did good coming to me, though.
427
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,952
Had you told anybody else about this?
428
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,838
Just my kin.
429
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:30,150
What you gonna do, sheriff?
430
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:35,189
I'm gonna get after them, Tom,
but I gotta handle this careful.
431
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,279
This is not just locking up
some Saturday night drunk.
432
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,797
I gotta study. I got to figure out
how to handle this.
433
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,154
I tell you what I want you to do.
434
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:02,353
You go on home and just go on
about your business.
435
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:06,394
Best that folks don't know you got
anything to do with this.
436
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,637
Yes, sir. Take care of it, then?
437
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:16,715
Well, I guess I got to, Tom.
I guess I got to.
438
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,588
- Tom?
- I think we done right.
439
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:41,350
- I think the law is the law.
- What happened?
440
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,717
He heard me out,
and he going after them.
441
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:47,678
What you two doing here?
442
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:53,712
Well, you one crazy fool.
443
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,197
But you still our brother.
444
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,995
- You sure?
- He going after them. Don't worry.
445
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,433
Yeah?
446
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,752
Can I come in?
447
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:23,754
Sure.
448
00:42:31,240 --> 00:42:32,798
You all right?
449
00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:40,433
I sorry about what happened.
You knows how we feel about you.
450
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,629
Yeah, I guess I do.
After last night, I guess I do.
451
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,879
Don't go on like that. Lewis got
no more sense than a bee...
452
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,758
...when his blood's up.
453
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,188
Don't mean nothing.
454
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,075
If Lewis didn't mean what he said,
why ain't he here?
455
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,996
He come around. He just needs
more time to collect himself.
456
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,393
Well, Tom.
457
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,514
I guess maybe I need some time too.
458
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:09,676
Well, sure you do.
459
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,990
- George?
- What?
460
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,108
Maybe we been here long enough.
461
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:33,874
Maybe we best be thinking
of striking out for ourselves...
462
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,675
...while we still young enough.
463
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,071
I'm sure you've been concerned
about what'll happen...
464
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:45,953
...now that Mr. Harvey has left.
465
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,790
Let me reassure you
that nothing is going to change.
466
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,151
Mr. Harvey's agreement with you
will be honored.
467
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,670
You'll receive a percentage
of the crops you raise.
468
00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,192
Well, what do you say to that?
469
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,630
It's very kind of you, sir.
470
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:07,914
But if Mr. Brent gonna be in charge,
I don't think my people wanna stay on.
471
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,833
Well.
472
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,591
You're free to go, of course.
473
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,511
Just as soon as you pay up your debt.
474
00:44:20,720 --> 00:44:22,153
What debt?
475
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,316
According to the farm's ledger,
you was advanced $235...
476
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,876
...in seed, grain and supplies
against future crops.
477
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,790
But Mr. Harvey said he fixed that.
Told us we was free and clear.
478
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,113
The agreement's on file
at the county clerk's office.
479
00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,993
I didn't see
that in the deed of sale.
480
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:50,874
Now you work hard on your share,
it'll reduce your debt considerably.
481
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,839
$235 dollars ain't all that much.
482
00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:58,199
But in the meantime,
don't nobody try leaving here.
483
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,949
This is a legal matter
and the sheriff will lock you up.
484
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:04,672
Senator, sir?
485
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,558
Is this what you wants?
486
00:45:08,720 --> 00:45:11,188
I thought I made it clear, boy.
487
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,115
Mr. Brent speaks for me.
488
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:19,716
Mr. Johnson.
489
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,118
We're wondering what your plans are,
now that Mr. Harvey's left.
490
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,518
I ain't got no special plans.
I'll just go on working my share.
491
00:45:28,720 --> 00:45:32,030
That won't do. Me and the senator,
we got feelings...
492
00:45:32,240 --> 00:45:35,550
...about whites sharecropping
with niggers.
493
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,276
Why should a smart boy
wanna work like a field hand...
494
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,677
...when there are
other opportunities to consider?
495
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:48,274
We need someone to keep his eye on
things, make sure the work gets done.
496
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,790
The job's yours if you want it.
497
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,599
I ain't much about overseeing.
498
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,998
I'll pay you a good wage and if
it works out, maybe your family...
499
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:02,990
...can move into the main house here.
Now that's fair, ain't it?
500
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:17,515
- All right. I'll do it.
- Good boy, Georgie. Good boy.
501
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,917
We'll settle the details later.
Senator?
502
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,588
I think that's everything
for now, Evan.
503
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,270
I'm looking forward to a long
and happy association.
504
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:30,835
You'll find me a fair man
to work for...
505
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,796
...if you're willing
to meet me halfway.
506
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,589
Next time I'm here,
I expect to see all these darkies...
507
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,234
...out in the fields
where they belong.
508
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,028
I want you reporting to me regular.
509
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:56,476
I do hope you're gonna
behave yourself, boy.
510
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,671
I surely do.
511
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,070
Oh, howdy, sheriff. Come on in.
512
00:47:16,240 --> 00:47:17,673
Howdy, Evan.
513
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,999
You know, Evan, we've been friends
for a long time.
514
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,111
I want you to know that.
515
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:35,117
I know that, Charlie.
What's got into you?
516
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,636
And I'm on your side.
517
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,116
You understand that, don't you?
518
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:43,750
Sheriff, you been drinking?
519
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,916
No, I don't think
I could get drunk tonight.
520
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,913
No. Why? Why can't you get drunk?
521
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,595
I know who every single one
of them nightriders is.
522
00:47:55,800 --> 00:48:00,396
I got proof I'm gonna turn over
to the Federal Circuit Court judge...
523
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,199
...when he comes next weekend.
- You got what?
524
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:08,311
You heard me, Evan. I got proof.
Tom Harvey gave it to me.
525
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,911
I don't want to know what I know.
But I know it for a real fact...
526
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,918
...unless somebody does something.
527
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:20,471
I'm sworn to do something that'll
make me a hated man in this county.
528
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:25,948
Unless somebody does something to make
Tom Harvey pull back his evidence.
529
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:27,718
Do something like what?
530
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:32,755
Evan, I'm sick enough as it is!
At myself, for letting it go this far.
531
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,428
Do I have to lay out the plan too?
532
00:48:36,240 --> 00:48:39,437
No. No need for that.
533
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,595
You've done enough, sheriff.
You've done enough.
534
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,110
I guess I'll just have to see...
535
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,880
I don't wanna know another word.
536
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:04,515
I'm an officer of the law.
Sometimes an officer of the law...
537
00:49:04,720 --> 00:49:09,510
...just ain't got no choice in some
things. You understand what I mean?
538
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:16,113
Won't nobody misunderstand, sheriff.
I'll see to that.
539
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:24,159
Well, thank you, Evan.
I'm much obliged to you.
540
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:28,999
Good night, Evan.
541
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:36,717
Tom Harvey!
542
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,516
We want you, nigger!
543
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,278
Tom. Tom!
544
00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:01,995
Get yourself out here, boy.
Or we're gonna burn your kinfolk.
545
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,158
Tom.
546
00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:37,269
Move.
547
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,718
Now!
548
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:21,869
George.
549
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,838
They's six of them, Martha. Six!
550
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:31,308
Why should I? Like holds to like.
That's what they told me, ain't it?
551
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:32,953
Ain't it?
552
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:42,269
Thought you was smart going
to the sheriff, didn't you?
553
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:48,234
This here's a bad nigger!
554
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:53,520
Talking about the law instead of
doing his work, paying his debts.
555
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,988
So we're gonna teach him
how to be a good nigger!
556
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:03,188
It's best you study hard what's gonna
happen, so you won't make mistakes.
557
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,870
Because you ain't never
gonna leave here! Never!
558
00:53:07,080 --> 00:53:09,230
All right! Get on with it!
559
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,034
Damn it! Now you leave my nigger be!
560
00:53:27,240 --> 00:53:29,959
Stay out of this.
Boy needs a lesson.
561
00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:33,516
- What's he done?
- He's fixing to set the law on us.
562
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:38,956
All right, he's got it coming!
563
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:43,796
But you put me in charge here
and nobody whips my niggers but me!
564
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,319
Let him do it.
565
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,872
- Why you stopping?
- No use. He's senseless!
566
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:33,035
It don't matter.
He'll remember when he wakes up.
567
00:54:33,240 --> 00:54:36,437
If he wakes up. Now get on with it.
568
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,274
Looks like you're on top of that!
569
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,631
Make sure you teach him
how to be a nigger now!
570
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:22,512
- Tom! Tom!
- God, let him be alive!
571
00:55:22,720 --> 00:55:27,430
Oh, God, let him be alive!
Please. Help him.
572
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,716
Let him be alive.
573
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:44,757
Irene? Irene. I'm sorry, Irene.
I was just trying...
574
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,238
...to make them think
I was doing their job.
575
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:53,153
You ain't got nothing to be
sorry about, Old George Johnson.
576
00:55:53,720 --> 00:55:56,075
You just saved my man's life!
577
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,790
You just saved my man's life.
578
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:04,788
I'm sorry, Old George.
I was wrong. Dead wrong.
579
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,918
- Let's get him inside.
- He'll be all right.
580
00:56:12,720 --> 00:56:15,029
- He's gonna be all right.
- Easy.
581
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,637
- Careful now. Be careful.
- Easy.
582
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:20,558
Oh, Tom.
583
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:29,512
What we gonna do? What we gonna do?
584
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,477
Ain't nothing we can do.
585
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:35,434
We ain't never gonna get away
from here. Never!
586
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,835
At least not alive, anyway.
587
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:39,914
All my fault.
588
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,078
I should've let y'all go
when you wanted.
589
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,073
- Instead of...
- Now you just hush, Mama.
590
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:52,035
Don't you go blaming yourself.
We stayed here because we wanted to.
591
00:56:52,240 --> 00:56:55,630
Tom? What we gonna do?
592
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,549
Get my boy out of here.
593
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,954
I don't want him to see me like this.
594
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:11,913
Martha.
595
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:20,319
Lewis?
596
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:22,475
Yeah, Tom?
597
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:28,353
Take that shovel
and dig up the floor...
598
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:30,152
...under Bud's bed.
599
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,037
- What you want me to do that for?
- Do it!
600
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:48,514
Bud, don't worry about your daddy.
He's gonna be fine.
601
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,076
He's a strong man.
602
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,515
Ain't none stronger.
603
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:58,432
He'll be up and around in no time.
604
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,598
I'm gonna kill
those white men someday.
605
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:10,596
- You shouldn't talk like that.
- I'm gonna kill them.
606
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:15,596
Bible says it ain't right
to kill people, Bud.
607
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,957
Do it say it right
for them to whip my daddy?
608
00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:25,670
It don't say that neither.
609
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,390
Then I'm bound to get them.
610
00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:36,713
Which ones, Bud?
Couldn't see their faces.
611
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:39,798
I'll find a way
to get the ones who done it.
612
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,395
Suppose you make a mistake?
613
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:48,833
Suppose you hurt white folks
that ain't done your daddy no harm?
614
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:50,837
I'll do what I gotta do.
615
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,996
Then I guess you might as well
start with me.
616
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:01,557
I didn't mean you.
617
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,995
Well, I sure am white.
618
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,355
I'm white as a cotton ball.
619
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,399
If you start hurting whites
for being white...
620
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,353
...then soon you'll get
to me and Old George.
621
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:17,119
I don't wanna kill you.
622
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:21,359
That's what happens when you
hurt folks for their skin color.
623
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:25,118
You won't be any better than them.
624
00:59:25,320 --> 00:59:27,231
I hate them. Hate them!
625
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:31,355
Hate them for what they done...
626
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:34,599
...not because they's white.
627
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:38,955
Me and mine is white.
628
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:42,036
But we love you...
629
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,151
...just like our own.
630
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,475
If you'll let us love you.
631
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:55,593
Oh, Bud.
632
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:00,274
Oh, my poor little Bud.
633
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:21,915
This is a cavalry officer's pistol.
634
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,959
Got "J.B." carved in the handle here.
635
01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:30,032
Lord God!
636
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:34,432
- It be Jemmy Brent's. Put it away.
- Give it to me.
637
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:37,954
Husband, what is you thinking of?
638
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:41,835
They catch you with that gun,
they gonna kill you.
639
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:44,755
I only knows one thing:
640
01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,957
Ain't nobody ever gonna whip me again!
641
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:51,359
Ever!
642
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:53,195
Someone's coming!
643
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,395
Blow out the candles.
644
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:22,358
Open the door slow, whoever you is...
645
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:24,875
...or I'll blows you apart.
646
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,596
You don't wanna do that, son.
647
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,031
Not unless you gonna make yourself
an orphan child.
648
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:42,035
Daddy?
649
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:47,437
My man.
650
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:49,075
Grandpa.
651
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:50,838
Chicken George!
652
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:58,153
What's this?
653
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:00,877
I got news for you.
654
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,952
The old chicken-fighter
has come home to roost!
655
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:06,112
Look at you.
656
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:12,275
Good thing you come home
after dark, George.
657
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:13,669
Why you say that?
658
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:18,960
I's so old and ugly I might scare you
to death in God's proper light.
659
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,153
I don't see you with my eyes...
660
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:25,920
...I sees you with my heart.
661
01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,510
- So I is old and ugly?
- What you talking about?
662
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:33,508
Was a time when you used to
look at me with your eyes.
663
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,915
All right, I'll look at you now.
Come on.
664
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,350
I say come on around here.
665
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,676
You still is beautiful, Tildy.
666
01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,998
You still my beautiful woman.
667
01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:58,597
Sure, time has left a few tracks
in its passing...
668
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:00,677
...like it's done me.
669
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:05,596
But you got a sprinkling
of moonbeam in your hair. Look.
670
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:09,118
And your eyes...
671
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:14,638
Your eyes still have that
little girl looking out of them.
672
01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:18,674
I feel like
a little girl tonight, George.
673
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:20,872
Been so long.
674
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,998
It's just like the very first time.
675
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,071
What's going on here?
676
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,477
Tom whipped, and this
Evan Brent in charge.
677
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:44,559
Nothing that won't keep till morning.
Hush now.
678
01:03:45,720 --> 01:03:49,952
Brent and his like done stole
most our lives away.
679
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:53,717
Let's keep this one night
for ourselves.
680
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,718
Oh, my sweet, sweet Mama.
681
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:12,195
Yes, indeed. The family sure owes
a lot to these two birds.
682
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:16,598
With the money they won me,
I bought us some land in Tennessee.
683
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:19,394
Land so rich and black
you can plant...
684
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:22,672
...a pig's tail and a hog will grow!
685
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:24,554
Daddy...
686
01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:27,793
...ain't you heard a word we said?
687
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:32,270
We can't go to Tennessee,
can't go nowhere.
688
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,591
You mean Brent and his bunch?
689
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:39,270
I wouldn't worry about that none.
690
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,233
I been in worse situations in the war.
691
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:49,111
What you getting at?
692
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:52,869
All right.
693
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:57,516
Let's look at it
like it was a military operation.
694
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,072
Here we are,
surrounded by the enemy...
695
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,589
...outnumbered, outgunned...
696
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:06,678
...and half our troops
is women and children.
697
01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:10,196
On the face of it, it looks bad.
698
01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:13,836
Look like we in a hopeless position.
699
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:17,239
And that's our one strong point.
700
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,160
Don't sound like
no strong point to me.
701
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:23,754
Way I figure it...
702
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:27,794
...Brent and this senator must be
feeling mighty smug.
703
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,309
Like they got us
where they want us.
704
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:33,597
Toeing the line, scared to death.
705
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:36,872
Well, from now on...
706
01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:39,190
...we gonna do everything we can...
707
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,790
...to make sure they go
right on feeling that way.
708
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:49,832
Clumsy fool!
709
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:51,871
Look after Mrs. Randall.
710
01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:54,594
I wanna see what's going on out there.
711
01:05:57,640 --> 01:06:00,916
You dumb black boy.
Can't I trust you to do nothing?
712
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:04,317
I want every grain of that
back in the sack!
713
01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:10,996
I's trying, Mr. Johnson.
714
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:15,591
You ain't trying hard enough.
I don't want no sacks full of dirt.
715
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:16,749
Those darkies...
716
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:21,038
...they was bad enough under slavery,
but now they's useless.
717
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:23,399
I's done, sir.
718
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,556
What are you waiting on, boy?
719
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,797
Get the rest of the sacks
out of there!
720
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,591
Would you move your black backside?!
Move it! Move it!
721
01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:42,234
- Well, George.
- Oh, Mr. Brent.
722
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:43,833
I see you've learned.
723
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:46,952
I wasn't too sure about
overseeing them darkies...
724
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:49,993
...as you well know,
but I wanna tell you...
725
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:52,549
...it beats farming all to hell.
726
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,632
- I wanna thank you.
- That's all right, son.
727
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,598
Just don't you let up.
728
01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:01,509
Don't you worry.
I keeps on them all the time.
729
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:04,035
You'll do, Georgie, you'll do.
730
01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:06,951
Oh, please, sir.
731
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:08,394
Please.
732
01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:14,356
We don't want no more trouble.
733
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,957
If my man goes up
in front of the judge...
734
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,550
...they'll kill him, sure.
735
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:27,230
I got two little babies, sir.
736
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:32,236
Now what we gonna do
if they kills my man?
737
01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:36,312
Oh, please, sir.
738
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:41,436
You mean Tom wants to
forget this whole thing...
739
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:45,959
...and drop the charges?
740
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:51,035
I swears to God you won't never
hear from him again.
741
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,149
Well, you seem like a good girl...
742
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:58,636
...so I'm gonna do something
that I hadn't ought to do.
743
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:08,755
This is your husband's property.
744
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:12,479
You do with it what you want to do.
745
01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:25,958
God bless you, sir.
746
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:51,793
I think that's about everything
he asked for.
747
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:54,874
Thank you, sir.
748
01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:57,078
Just a minute there, boy.
749
01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,316
I ain't done with you yet.
750
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:06,036
- Yes, sir?
- Fetch me a dipper of water, nigger.
751
01:09:11,440 --> 01:09:12,873
Yes, sir.
752
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:40,518
I do believe that's the sweetest water
I ever tasted.
753
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:42,153
Yes, sir.
754
01:09:42,480 --> 01:09:44,391
Fetch you some more, sir?
755
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:46,195
No.
756
01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,190
But I sure did appreciate it.
757
01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:53,949
You're shaping up into a good boy.
758
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,276
Thank you, sir. I's trying.
759
01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:58,471
You can run along now.
760
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:22,395
You see that uppity Tom fetch me
a dipper of water, nice and polite?
761
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,636
- Yes, I did.
- Did my heart good.
762
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,553
Charlie tells me Tom's wife was in...
763
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,633
...begging to have them charges dropped.
764
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,479
We can rest easy
about the Harvey place.
765
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:37,719
- Yes, it looks that way.
- Something troubling you, senator?
766
01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,918
It's been my experience
one should not depend...
767
01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:43,680
...on an unbroken series
of fortunate events.
768
01:10:44,480 --> 01:10:49,031
This idyllic behavior is either
to conceal furtive activity...
769
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:54,511
...or a tribute to George Johnson's
ability to work a miracle.
770
01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:59,271
- Johnson seems to have things in hand.
- I do not reject the miracle.
771
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:02,880
I simply think
it should be put to the test.
772
01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:07,591
- Have you been to the farm yourself?
- Not recently.
773
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:10,194
I've been busy at the store.
774
01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:16,954
A little drive out there, unannounced,
might teach us something.
775
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,438
Stop lollygagging.
Put your backs into it!
776
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:30,756
You think this is a picnic?
777
01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:32,439
I got my eye on you.
778
01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:35,950
You put your black back into it,
or I'll do it for you!
779
01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:49,438
Good day, senator. Mr. Brent.
780
01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:50,914
Hello, young man.
781
01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:53,799
Wanted to see
how you're getting on.
782
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:58,630
Ain't as far long with
the planting as I'd like to be.
783
01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:00,836
We's cleaning up
what the nightriders did.
784
01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:04,231
But things is coming along.
It's coming along.
785
01:12:04,480 --> 01:12:06,869
- Massa Johnson?
- Lewis, what is it now?
786
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:11,915
We'd like you to look
at the fence we's fixing.
787
01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:16,517
Go on back and keep working,
and I'll be there directly.
788
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,114
- Thank you, sir.
- Go on, now.
789
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,869
The blacks, they just
like little kiddies.
790
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:28,588
Can't do nothing on their own.
791
01:12:32,480 --> 01:12:35,517
I guess we ought to get
back to town.
792
01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:39,030
Seems like Mr. Johnson's
got his work in order.
793
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,237
Be seeing you, George.
794
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:46,838
- You keep after them, you hear?
- Don't you worry none.
795
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:49,031
Good day, senator.
796
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:56,759
Oh, Mr. Brent!
797
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,714
Mr. Harvey's mules
is on their last legs.
798
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:07,196
They ain't hardly pulling
worth their feed.
799
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,239
If I could have me six young mules...
800
01:13:10,440 --> 01:13:13,034
...I could plant another 100 acres.
801
01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:14,589
Senator?
802
01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:19,432
I think Mr. Johnson's enterprise
ought to be encouraged.
803
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:23,634
I'll get them out here
as soon as I can. Anything else?
804
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:27,117
No, I think I got
everything I need now, sir.
805
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:31,558
- I'll get six mules out tomorrow.
- I'm much obliged.
806
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:00,153
Mr. Brent!
807
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:05,714
You gotta come out to the farm.
It's Georgie!
808
01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:09,873
All right, missy. Just calm down.
Tell me what happened.
809
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:14,318
Georgie had an accident.
I think his leg is broke.
810
01:14:14,480 --> 01:14:17,870
- We better go get Doc Farrell.
- I went there first.
811
01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:21,197
He's on his way. But my husband
want you to come.
812
01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:24,557
He's afraid the darkies will
take advantage and run off.
813
01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:28,554
- Mr. Brent, you gotta come.
- All right! Calm down.
814
01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:31,832
It'll be all right.
Get back to your husband.
815
01:14:32,040 --> 01:14:36,079
I'll ride out soon as I can.
Get! Get, you hear!
816
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:48,911
Over here, Mr. Brent.
817
01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:04,636
How's he doing, doc?
818
01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:07,998
He all right, Mr. Brent.
But you ain't.
819
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,348
What are you doing? Put that gun down.
820
01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:16,670
We leaving this county.
We're making sure you won't stop us.
821
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:20,357
You been bamboozled, Mr. Brent!
822
01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:22,995
Why, you dirty nigger lover!
823
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,072
Mr. Brent...
824
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,117
...it ain't I loves niggers so much...
825
01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:30,830
...it's just I don't like you at all.
826
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,355
You're not as smart as you think.
827
01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:35,073
That ain't the point.
828
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:38,995
The point is, we ain't as dumb
as you think we is.
829
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:42,795
Because if we's that dumb,
what's that make you?
830
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,798
We're taking charge. Drop that gun.
831
01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:53,797
Think I'm crazy enough
to ride out here alone?
832
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:59,435
I didn't live through no war to walk
into an ambush with eyes wide open.
833
01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:01,954
Boy...
834
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:07,311
...if you got any skin left
on that black carcass of yours...
835
01:16:07,520 --> 01:16:09,112
...you're about to lose it.
836
01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:14,318
Where's the rest of them
no-account niggers?
837
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,236
Believe I asked you a question.
838
01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:25,473
- Did you hear me?
- No! Please! They're in the barn.
839
01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:46,838
Come on out of there!
840
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,349
I know you're in there.
841
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,393
I'll be hard on you
if I have to go in there.
842
01:16:54,640 --> 01:16:56,392
Break that door down.
843
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:07,431
Hold it right there, boss.
844
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:10,439
Now...
845
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,878
...I'd drop them guns...
846
01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:17,238
...kind of nice and easy like.
847
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,116
Pick up the pop pistols.
848
01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:27,833
Now, what if...?
849
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:31,630
This is the way my captain
used to teach us to think.
850
01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:37,437
"What if the enemy figures out
your first plan?
851
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:40,319
What you gonna do?
852
01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,597
Get yourself another plan!"
853
01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:48,077
Who the hell are you?
854
01:17:50,440 --> 01:17:52,715
I'm the daddy of these boys.
855
01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:56,839
Don't you remember me?
You chased me out of the county once.
856
01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,634
Now, all I wants to do...
857
01:17:59,880 --> 01:18:03,236
...is leave the county peaceably.
858
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:06,235
Tie them up, boys.
859
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:09,633
Tom, he all yours now.
860
01:18:47,840 --> 01:18:50,149
How do it feel, Mr. Brent?
861
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:53,997
To be tied up
like a hog for slaughter...
862
01:18:54,800 --> 01:18:57,553
...waiting for your flesh
to turn to jelly?
863
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:02,834
What do you feel like to be
on the other side of the lash?
864
01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:04,832
No, Tom...
865
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:09,035
Please.
866
01:19:57,880 --> 01:19:59,598
Time to go.
867
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:10,958
Get moving.
868
01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:14,633
Get the children back there.
Sit down.
869
01:20:15,920 --> 01:20:17,239
Maria Jane!
870
01:20:17,440 --> 01:20:18,839
Come on up, Bud.
871
01:20:19,200 --> 01:20:21,156
Got your young'uns, Tom?
872
01:20:26,480 --> 01:20:32,874
My boy Tom has a good heart
and I admire his thinking.
873
01:20:33,760 --> 01:20:38,550
If you bother me or mine ever again...
874
01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:40,552
...I'll kill you.
875
01:20:56,720 --> 01:20:58,631
- Let's go.
- No.
876
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:00,279
Not yet.
877
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:05,317
I know you's sorry to be leaving.
We got to get moving.
878
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:08,592
I been sitting here,
trying to remember.
879
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:15,912
Been living here maybe 14, 15 years.
880
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,037
I lost count.
881
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:23,516
I helped Irene birth
all the grandchildren.
882
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:25,873
Seen them grow.
883
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:31,674
I held her second baby in my arms
when she die.
884
01:21:33,040 --> 01:21:37,272
We buried that sweet lamb
by the willow.
885
01:21:38,640 --> 01:21:44,033
I knows every chink in every wall
the winter wind blow through.
886
01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:46,669
I know...
887
01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:50,197
...it hard, old woman, leaving.
888
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:52,231
Hard?
889
01:21:57,360 --> 01:21:59,271
Chicken George...
890
01:21:59,440 --> 01:22:02,477
...you is a foolish old man.
891
01:22:03,440 --> 01:22:07,399
There ain't nothing hard
about being happy.
892
01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:12,716
This ain't never been our home.
893
01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:16,112
Never belong to us no way!
894
01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:21,477
This here is Massa Harvey's
nigger quarters.
895
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:28,954
When we ride out of here, I ain't
never gonna think of it again!
896
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:34,313
Go on there, mule!
897
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:39,671
Let's move on.
898
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:46,030
Mr. Brent! Thank the senator
for these new mules.
899
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:49,033
We never could've made it
without them!
900
01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:07,597
We's here!
901
01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:10,678
This here our land.
902
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:14,470
Go on, mule, go on!
903
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:18,873
Hold up there.
904
01:24:27,480 --> 01:24:30,233
You get down easy, honey.
905
01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:33,072
Here's home.
906
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:34,639
Bud.
907
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:40,037
The first slave in this family
was my granddaddy...
908
01:24:40,480 --> 01:24:42,277
...Kunta Kinte.
909
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:44,955
But he weren't always a slave.
910
01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:48,598
Before he was a slave
he was a free man...
911
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:50,472
...in another country.
912
01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:53,598
A country called Africa.
913
01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,232
But then the slavers,
they catch him...
914
01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:01,599
...when he went to find some wood
to make a drum...
915
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:05,116
...and they brung him to America.
916
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:08,357
To a place called Annapolis.
917
01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:10,996
But Kunta Kinte...
918
01:25:11,480 --> 01:25:13,914
...he never forget where he come from.
919
01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:16,714
He never forget Africa.
920
01:25:16,880 --> 01:25:20,953
He never forget
the words he spoke as a child.
921
01:25:21,160 --> 01:25:23,515
How ko mean a fiddle...
922
01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:26,439
...and Kamby Bolongo mean a river.
923
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:30,315
He never stop fighting against
his chains to be free again.
924
01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:36,032
Not even after they cut off half his
foot to keep him from running away.
925
01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:43,800
And before he die,
he give that dream of freedom...
926
01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:45,633
...to his daughter.
927
01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:48,354
Kizzy.
928
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:51,398
My mama.
929
01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:57,438
And before she die,
she give that dream to me.
930
01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:03,029
And I've tried to keep that dream
alive in all you children...
931
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:05,794
...till that day come.
932
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,871
Hear me, old African...
933
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:11,957
...the flesh...
934
01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:13,991
...of your flesh...
935
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:17,355
...has come to freedom.
936
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:21,077
You is free at last.
937
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:26,836
We is free!
938
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:24,630
The family did settlein Henning, Tennessee.
939
01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:27,912
Matilda passed awaybefore Chicken George.
940
01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:31,914
And he enjoyed life amonghis children and grandchildren...
941
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:35,993
... until he diedat the ripe old age of 83.
942
01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:40,438
The blacksmith, Tom,and his talented Irene prospered.
943
01:27:40,640 --> 01:27:47,034
Their daughter, Cynthia, marrieda quiet black man named Will Palmer...
944
01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:50,277
... who came to ownthe town 's lumber mill.
945
01:27:50,480 --> 01:27:52,789
They had a daughter named Bertha...
946
01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:54,991
... who attended Lane College...
947
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,909
... where she met and marriedSimon Alexander Haley.
948
01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:02,829
In 1921, the Haleys welcomed a son...
949
01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:06,953
... the seventh generation descendantof Kunta Kinte.
950
01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:10,194
That boy was me, Alex Haley.
951
01:28:10,400 --> 01:28:14,632
I never forgot those stories which
my grandmother Cynthia told me.
952
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:19,920
And in 1963, after I had retired from
a career in the U.S. Coast Guard...
953
01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:24,352
...I became obsessed with knowing
more about our family...
954
01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:26,118
...more about its history.
955
01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:30,199
It was a search that would take me
12 years to complete.
956
01:28:30,400 --> 01:28:35,269
And those things that I learned,
I wrote in a book called Roots.
