[intense dramatic music]

- [Willie Lynch] If used
intensely for one year,

the slaves themselves
will remain

perpetually distrustful
of each other.

- [Announcer] Serial number 158.

- [Reporter] In 1940, the first
peacetime draft in America.

- [Reporter] The
Japanese have attacked

Pearl Harbor, Hawaii by air,

President Roosevelt
has just announced.

- [Roosevelt] Yesterday,
December 7th, 1941,

a date which will
live in infamy.

No matter how long
it may take us

to overcome this
premeditated invasion.

- [Reporter] The attack
at Pearl Harbor united,

the American people as
never before in its history.

- [Reporter] An era of
the greatest opportunity

and prosperity in
our nation's history.

[intense dramatic music]

- [Roosevelt] There
have always been those

who did not believe
in the people,

who attempted to block

their forward movement
across history.

- [Harry Truman] Beyond
any shadow of a doubt,

America will continue
to fight for freedom

until no vestige of
resistance remains.

[intense dramatic music]

- Oh, look, you and daddy kinda

have on the same color today.

Very pretty.

- Welfare Officer Richard
Huggins will see you now.

- Okay, there we go--

- Not you.

Men have to stay here.

- Excuse me, Ma'am?

- Men are not allowed.

- Ma'am, I know we
are not married,

but we have been living
together for four years.

- Well, you can speak to
Mr. Richard about that.

You can come with me.

- It's okay.

We'll stay out here and have
fun while they go in there

and take care of
all the adult stuff.

[somber music]

- Officer Huggins, sir.

- This is Neia Clipshim,
your three o'clock.

- Neia, Ma'am, why don't you
have a seat here at the desk?

Would you like some water?

- Yes.

Yes, that would be very nice.

- Pam, could you please get
Miss Neia a cup of water?

Neia, have a seat and let's
talk about your situation.

- Yes.

- I understand you
have a daughter?

- Yes, sir.

- What's her name and how old?

- Well, her name is Carol and
she's three years old, sir,

I swear she's been here before.

She's such an old soul.

- What is it that you do
exactly, Miss Clipshim?

- Excuse me, sir.

- How do you make money?

- Oh, I would love to be
a beautician, to do hair.

That's actually
part of the reason

that David and I moved up north.

- Is David the child's father?

- Yes, sir.

She looks just like her daddy.

- Do you love him?
- Sir?

- Sorry about her.

I love children,
especially little girls.

And you know, to be honest,

that's why I took this job

because I want to help women
like you and save children.

Where does David live, with you?

- Yes, sir.

- The law says that a
man can't live with you

if you're gonna take our help.

- I don't understand.

Why not, sir?

- If a man lives in the house,

that man should be able
to provide for his family.

- Well, sir, I know that
if he would, he could.

It has been very hard
to find work up here.

We thought it would be easier
than the south, but ...

- Listen, it's not my
job to find him work.

It's my job to help you raise
a healthy, happy baby girl.

- Sir, what if we were married?

- Then it'd be for sure no.

And ma'am, would
you marry that bum?

- Sir, David is no bum.

- I'm not trying to tell you
what to do, but it's the law.

And if you accept our services,

and we come to find out that
David is still living there,

then we're gonna cut
that check right off.

And even worse than that,

we're gonna send
both of you to jail.

You said you wanted to
go to beauty school.

Oh well, okay.

Did you know we had a program
that would pay for that?

- No. No, sir.

I had no idea.

- You can take care of that
girl and live your dream.

That's what we could do for you.

What could he do for you?

I'll bet when you
go home and tell him

that he has to move
out, he's gonna say

"That white man's trying
to drive wedge between us."

But I'll tell you right now,

it has nothing to do
with blacks and whites.

It's about what's the
right thing for Carol.

[tense music]

[pan sizzles]

- Nah, nah, nah.
[little girl singing]

You know, Neia,
what I'm saying is,

did that white man
give you any reason

as to why I can't
live in my own home?

Hmm?

- Carol, will you please
stop jumping on the bed?

- He said if you live here,
you have to provide for us.

And he said, you
are not providing

Carol, Come on love.
Let's eat.

- Careful, baby.
There you go.

- Come on baby, sit down.

Eat your food.

I love you.

I do.

But where has that gotten us?

Wha-?

- Where has it gotten us?

It's gotten us here.

It's gotten us to the north.

It's gotten us Carol.

Maybe it's gotten us happiness.

- David ...

I'm not happy.

I'm worried.

I'm stressed.

I'm barely feeding my child.

Do you know how that makes
me feel as a mother, David?

We're outta money paying
for this month's rent.

- Do you hear your self?
You sound like one of them.

- I sound like one of them?

- You mean white, David?

Is that what you're saying?

Because I want better
for myself and our child,

I'm sounding white?

You know what?

You are just as stupid
as he said you are.

- I'm not leaving.

I'm not.

- And we'll starve
to death, David.

In this winter we will
die because of your pride.

- Don't you see?

Don't you see what that
man is doing to us!

- David, I see what
you're doing to us.

I see that!

[David breathes heavily]

- So when do I gotta go?

- As soon as I sign the papers.

they could come at
any time to check.

- [David] When you planning
on signing the papers?

- I signed them this afternoon.

- Come here, I give your
daddy a big old hug.

- I love you, daddy.

- I love you too, babygirl.

Okay.

Okay, let's go see your mom.

- Come on, baby.

It's all right, baby.

We are gonna be all right.

[upbeat music]

- Look, I took this
job to help children,

especially little girls.

I really did.

And even if he is giving
you money here and there,

the moment his face gets up a
new skirt that all will stop.

Trust me.

And you'll be right
back here complaining

about not doing
this the first time.

- How much can I get?

- How much do you need?

I can tell you right
now, I work for you.

So no matter what
he's giving you now,

you know we can get more.

And the moment he slips up,
we send his ass to jail.

So does he have to
sign onto this also?

- No.

The moment you sign this,

it's whatever you
want to happen.

This is about you.

[upbeat music]

- Hi.

- Oh, wow.

Look at you.

[Carol roars]
- Yes.

Oh, I love that.

All right little lady,
go wash your hands.

And potty, 'cause I know you do.

- Okay, mom.

- I'm telling you,
she legit loves hippos

the same way I did at her age.

Like, I really gotta look
into getting a zoo membership.

- Thanks for taking
her to the zoo.

- For like the seventh time.

But it's always better
when you come too though.

[indistinct muttering]

How was your meeting?

Or I guess the better question
is, what was your meeting?

- So are you still not sure
about us getting married?

- Oh. [chuckles] umm...

I wasn't expecting that.

Uhh...

You go see a pastor
or something?

- I'm serious.
I need to know.

- We're doing okay, we
just got back together.

We're still working on
this parenting thing.

- So just say you
don't wanna marry me.

- No, I'm not saying never.

- Well, until that happens,

I need to protect
myself and Carol.

- What are you talking about?

- Look, I might as
well just tell you

'cause you're gonna
get the letter anyway.

I filed for child support today.

- What the fuck?

- And I don't think
it's a good idea

that you stay here anymore.

- Yeah, that shit is
for like dead beat dads.

I have Carol every day.

- Well, what am
I supposed to do?

Until you put a
fucking ring on it

it's the only way I
can protect myself.

- Protect yourself from what?

- From you, not taking care
of your responsibility.

- Are you outta
your fucking mind?

You refuse to pay for even
half of her school or her camp.

That shit is all on me!

- And what happens when
you decide to stop paying?

Fuck.

[somber music]

- Yo, this is bullshit.

So you're saying, because I said

I don't think we
should get married yet,

you're using this
shit against me.

- You know what?

I think you should leave.

- Fuck you, Neia.

- I'm not playing for shit--

- Get off me!

You know what? Then
you're going to jail.

[Neia screams]

- No!

- Daddy!

[upbeat music]

- You got this.

- Hey, today is
your first day too?

- Yes. I'm so excited.

- Where are you starting at?

- Sports Line Live.

- Oh my God. Me too.

- What? That's crazy.

I guess they're really
trying to fill the quota.

- Ugh.
Where'd you go to school?

- Temple.

- Oh wow, girl. They are good.

- Yeah, what about you?

- Syracuse.

What? Girl, that
was my first choice.

- Hey, I know these things
can become super competitive.

Let's agree to not
let that mess us up.

I mean, probably only
gonna be two black women

on the air anyways.

- Yes. I'm totally
down with that.

We gotta have each
other's backs, you know?

- Okay.

- All right, good.

- Last thing we need is to
be looking over our shoulder.

- Girl, that's right.

- I'll see you up there.

- Okay.
[upbeat music]

- We are so excited
to have you here.

- I'm really excited
to get started.

- You were really highly
recommended by your professor.

Says here you were at
the top of your class.

- I was. I was.

I know that I'm
starting fresh here

and I will work very hard.

- Okay, well just so you know,

a lot of people
want this position

and we take our
diversity very seriously.

- I understand.

- Well, let me just
tell you some facts.

In one month, Bobby P
is gonna move networks.

He's going to do some
podcast, something like that.

Now that opens up a spot with
Todd on the morning broadcast.

We need to answer our
calls to be more diverse.

I mean, we want to.

We need to make
sure we're engaging

with the urban community.

- I think that's very important.

- I know you and
everyone at Sports Line

will make the right choice.

- Well, welcome to Sports Line.

Let's get to work.

Let's get to work.

- Let's do it.

- So I really
think there's a way

to tie in the mother's drug use.

- So you're saying on a
show that Buzzfeed says

does not get the culture vibe.

Let's start off the show

showing a black
crack addicted mom?

- No.

I'm saying let's
show the struggle

of what he came from
to make it to the NBA.

Everyone loves a
rags to riches story.

- His fucking mother died.

Okay? He's in the NBA.

Now what?

It's not like she's on
a private jet with him.

- Listen, Francine, I see
where you're trying to go.

Great idea. Let's just
keep them flowing, people.

Who else has got something?

Come on.

- I have an idea.
- Go ahead.

So there's this great
program out in Oakland.

Basically, they teach
these little kids

how to join the union.

So by the time they
graduate high school,

if they don't wanna
go to college, boom.

They have a job.

- Okay, anyone else?

Hello?

Come on, ideas, people. Ideas.

- What if we played up the
whole retired giving back angle?

Like last year,
Marshawn Lynch retired

and he started this
amazing charity

where he raises money and
gives it all to teaching youth

from his neighborhood
how to get jobs

and how to connect to the union.

- Now that is a great idea.

- That's a story I can sell.

- Especially the being
back at home angle.

This is brilliant.

- Malyka, that's exactly the
kind of idea we're looking for.

- [Man] Way to go.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Why weren't you at
Bobby's send away party?

- I didn't know there
was a send away party.

[crowd yelling]

- Did you not get the email?

-Ummm

- No, I don't see anything.

Hmmm

Thanks for the cake.

Can I ask you something?

- What's up?

- I mean, did you
see what happened

back there in the
broadcast meeting?

I mean, come on.

Girl to girl, like you
totally stole my idea.

- Joann, I have no idea
what you're trying to say.

You gave a pitch,
I gave a pitch.

- Is that what happened?

- Of course.

All on the same team, right?

Hmm.

God, I really have to stop
eating this, seriously.

God, it is good.

[ominous music]

[printer beeps]

- Hey, Malyka.

Oh my God, you look
so pretty today.

I love everything about this.

Like I just, I love it.

It's my favorite thing ever.

- Yeah, your outfit is cute.

- Thank you.
You look pretty too.

- Oh my God, Joann, I
didn't even see you there.

Hmm.

And is it just me or does she
always seem kind of angry?

- You know, I didn't notice.

- That's because
you're just so nice

and her hair kind of stinks

and I'm not sure
what the smell is.

But anyways, can I ask
you a personal question?

My god, your lips.

Is that a filler?

I knew it. I knew it was filler.

Oh my God, I love you.

[clock ticking rapidly]

- Hey Joann. If you're there,

you can come in and please
close the door behind you.

- Hi.

- Hi, there.

So in just a month's time,

you've risen to be one of
our most talented writers.

- Thank you.
- Your voice is so unique.

It's so raw.

I mean, the work you've did
on the Aaron Rogers piece.

So articulate.

- Thank you.

- Malyka, you know,
it's no secret

you're well liked
here in the office.

I've been really impressed
with the progress you made.

- Wow. Thank you.

You know, there's only one
spot open on the morning show.

Well, look, I'm just
gonna cut to the chase.

How'd you like to
be a lead writer.

- It's a great opportunity.

I did hope to be
an on-air talent.

- We want it to be you.

- Are you serious?

Yes, it's all yours.

Well, let me just tell
you the whole picture.

We see your voice, your words.

That raw, amazing storytelling.

- Yeah.

- Matched with Malyka's face,

I mean, that's an Emmy
waiting to happen.

What do you say?

You ready to have
millions of fans

and represent this network?

- Oh my God.

Yes.

Thank you.

I won't let you down.

- And you two are
friends, right?

So everybody wins.

- Thank you.

- Hey, we'll see you out there.

[staff applauding and cheering]

- I just gotta say, thank
you for the support.

You all have welcomed me
with open arms since day one.

It has really been a dream.

- [Woman] You're great, Malyka!

[crowd cheering]

- I mean, I did see the
competition for the position

and I was pretty sure
I was gonna get it.

[staff laughing]

But you guys know
I'm just playing.

I hope I make you proud.

Thank you again for everything.

And I will see you
all next Monday,

bright and early, 4:00 AM.

[staff applauding and cheering]

- Why do you think you
got that spot and not me?

Do you actually think you're
a better journalist than me?

- Wow, that's a
strange question.

But if I must
answer, I guess so.

- Every story you wrote,
every single one of them,

none of them were picked up.

The only ideas that
were chosen in the room

that you pitched were my ideas.

- Sounds like you have
a bit of jealousy,

which is sad because we said

we would root for each other.

- You don't get it, do you?

They only chose you because
you're white enough.

I mean black, kind of.

But white enough to make
them feel comfortable.

- You're saying I'm not
black enough for you?

- I'm saying you're not
black enough for Wayne Brady.

Matter of fact, Ted Cruz
is blacker than you.

Hmm.

- Joann ...

I'm sorry you were passed over.

Maybe if you smiled
a little bit more

or were introduced
to a fucking perm,

your life would've been better.

But until then,

I will see you Monday
bright and early 4:00 AM

with my caramel macchiato

made with almond milk
size grande, bitch.

[somber music]

[Malyka snaps her fingers]

- Yes?

- In this sentence you wrote,

"She is in Facebook
star overnight."

Did you mean to say that she ...

- Sorry, I was up late typing.

It was a typo.

- Okay, so you meant to say

"She became a Facebook
star over night."

- Not necessarily, she--

- [Producer] Two
minutes to show time!

- I knew you seeing me in
this role would be hard,

but I never thought you
would try and sabotage me.

Go away, I'll fix it.

Watch out, you might
not be black enough.

[staff laughing]

She's gonna give you
the boogieman touch

and make you darker.

[staff laughing]

- Okay, everybody.

Today is a big day.

It's Malyka's first
day in the big seat.

[staff applauding]

Okay.

In five,

four,

three,

two ...

[upbeat music]

- Hi, I'm Malyka Bradshaw
with my colleague Todd Jensen,

and we are very
excited to catch you up

on all the latest
highlights from last night.

- [Commentator] Oh my God!

- I have to take a moment

and congratulate
Malyka on her first day

in the anchor here
at Sports Line.

And now those Laker highlights.

You know, why don't
you do the honors?

- Wow, thank you, Todd.

So grateful to be here and
yeah, let's jump into it.

- Let's do it.

[distorted voice]
Uh Yea

[tense music]

[tense music]
let's jump into it

[tense music]

- No shocker here.

The Lakers lose again, this
time to the Sun's, 100 to 92.

- I tell you, I could feel the
heat coming from that gate.

- Holy shit!

[Malyka screaming]

[tense music]

[ominous music]

[family chattering]
[ominous music]

[upbeat music]

- [Nate] What's up?

- [Aunty Terry] What's up?

- [Nate] How y'all
doing? How y'all doing?

- [Aunty Terry] How you doing?

- [Nate] How you doing?

- I don't even know
how long, what's up?

- What's up? What's up?

Hey.

That should cover for
what you got today.

You feel that?

You know I got your back, Aunty.

- All this land this
woman got around

and all these kids wanna do
is run around in the house.

I tell you, my hip been
bothering me something crazy.

- Man, what up Doh?

I know you hear me, what up Doh?

- What up, Doh?

- [Rob] Yeah.

- Boy, what's my name?

- Uncle Nate.

- How you feeling young fella?

Looking good.

- You know what it is, we cool.

Maintaining, you know?

- Yeah, yeah.
- Yeah.

Man, what you drinking, man?

You got a box of
the Corona virus?

- [Nate] I bought this case.

- Yeah, I know you
did. It figures.

- Boy, what you bring?

- Oh, you mean besides the food

three plates on?

Ay yo, go to the car,

- Got you.

- Yeah, you like that?

- You really think you

- Don't you?

Don't be jealous.

- [Nate] Jealous?

- Yeah, you had your time.

- Had my time?

Boy, I'm still on time.
I'm still on top.

You look 30 years older than me

running around with the top of
your head looking like a mop.

[Rob laughs]

Hey, hey and listen,

I don't even know why
I'm talking to you about being on time

or having anything like
that or having a time.

You don't know nothing
about Uncle Nate.

You don't know how I
used to put it on 'em.

Used to take 'em down
to the [indistinct]

Y'all know nothing about
getting to know a girl.

First and last
name, her mama name.

What her sign is.

What I'm trying to tell
you is I come from the era

where we used to take a
woman out, hold her hand.

Take her for a slow
walk, get to know her,

get to know her mama and
her daddy, her brothers,

in case they wanted
to beat you up.

I come from the era where
you actually had to earn it.

Let's be real, son.

Y'all don't get no pussy
unless it come with a app.

- [Aunt Terry] Hey,
watch your mouth!

- I'm sorry, sis.
You know how it is.

I just had to let
him know one time.

- Y'all are always arguing.
That's enough now.

Now Rob, did you get a plate
for you and your friends?

- You always talking that
we don't know shit this,

we don't know shit that.

Aunty, I'm gonna eat later.

What did you do all your life?

- What I do?

Boy, I was a plumber.

20 years, union job.

- So why you ain't
teach me that?

- Teach you what?

- Why you ain't teach me that?

You knew when my
pa got locked up

you could have said something.

You could have done something.

You could have talked--

- Don't talk about
my brother like that.

- Stop, stop.

- No, no.
Let him go.

What you want? What
you, embarrassed?

You gonna fuck who up?

Yeah, I ain't one of
your little friends,

that you can give
$20 to and impress.

I'm a real man.

You don't know shit about that.

Matter of fact, none of
the niggas you roll with,

know shit about that.

I'm on top because
I do for mine.

You on top because
they scared of you

or they want some money from
you or something like that.

Tell you what, next time you
wanna do some real man shit,

come holler at your Uncle Nate.

I can show you how we get down.

- You gonna show
me how to get down?

I'm gonna show that's
how I get down, nigga.

- [Aunty Terry] Was
all that necessary?

Come on.

- I'm tired of him
acting like he's tough.

That's your nephew who I
haven't seen in over a year.

[family yelling]

[intense music]

- If used intensely
for one year,

the slaves themselves
will remain

perpetually distrustful
of each other.

- What the fuck is happening?

- Here, you dropped this.

Take it, man.

- You must use the
dark skin slaves

versus the light skin slaves.

- Why am I here?

- Listen, all right?

- [Willie Lynch] That distrust
is stronger than trust.

- My favorite part coming up.

- And envy is stronger
than admiration.

Don't forget, you must use

the old nigger versus
the young nigger.

This will break the opportunity
of generation teaching.

There will be no
line to learn from.

This will create a true fall
of anger, jealousy and hate.

You will have no
protection with each other.

Pay little attention
to original breaking

and concentrate on
future breaking.

You must keep the body
and take the mind.

In other words, break
the will to resist.

Break the female horse until
she is tender and kind.

And when it comes to breaking
the uncivilized nigger,

I use the same process

but step up the pressure.

You must use the
female versus the male

and the male versus the female.

You must castrate the male
in full view of the female.

If the woman raises the male

to be strong in body
and weak in mind,

it will be easier to control
for future generations.

- [A.O] Pull yourself together.

- [Willie Lynch] This will
only happen if you separate

the male nigger
from his family ...

- What is happening to me?
What is happening to me?

What is happening to me?

What happening to me?

What is happening to me?

What's happening to me?

What is happening to me?

What is happening to me?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Who are you?

- I'm A.O.

That's what they call me.

- You trying to make me a slave.

- You are a slave.

I pulled you aside for one
reason only my brother.

I need you to understand that
your melanin is a godly gift.

It can never be
taken away from you,

but they will constantly keep
you from playing the game

because they know
that banded together,

if they give you a chance to
play, you'll win every time.

They will always
change the rules

because you are not unified.

Do you understand?

- Yes, sir.

What can I do?

- I'm gonna teach you

how to systematically reverse

the teachings of Willie Lynch.

Let's get started, my brother.
