Yeah!

Hey, Pa.

- Come on. You can do it. - Whoa!

Okay, Mike. What you got for me? Let's see what you done.

Check it out.

What y'all up to in there?

Reopening this here theater.

Well, it's about time someone opened something around here.

Cooper, don't you even think about it.

- Come on, stop it! - Hey.

Let him up, now.

I'm just playing.

How about I come in there and do that to you, huh? Treat him nice.

Hey, Rock! Stop messing with kids over there.

Help me figure out this burp in this tranny.

- Hey, baby. - Hey there, Dawn.

Oh, that looks so good.

What's going on?

Eat this pie before it gets cold.

You getting to be quite the man, ain't you?

I just want to get the shop open, you know.

Here.

You hear that?

What?

The sound of nothing.

Just you, me and the crickets.

Yes, sir.

Now, you sure there ain't nothing I can do

to persuade you gentlemen not to take my stereo?

Ma'am.

Yeah... Yeah, I'm real sorry

about skipping the payments, boys.

Ever since I hurt my back, I can't work.

I can't work, can't make money.

It's all right. We understand.

Sorry to have to do this to you.

Uh, y'all sure you don't want a little something to drink before you leave?

- Little something might be nice. - All right, take it.

Clint.

What the heck's going on here? Huh?

You and your buddies hanging out in my house?

Can't a man visit his boy when he wants to?

You know Franklin ain't home this time of day.

What, your mama ran out of whiskey? Huh?

I don't know what he done told you, but he don't live here no more.

So y'all better get to steppin'.

We're from the Plantation repo.

Oh, for the love of sweet Jesus, Dale.

Franklin's gonna be devastated when he can't watch the race on Sunday.

Are you just gonna fucking sit there?

Huh?

Are you just gonna fucking sit there and let them take all my stuff?

Well, I-I mean, it's not really your stuff, now, is it?

I mean, y'all didn't even need to break the door down or nothing, did you?

He just let you in, just gave you a drink.

Oh, you just lay down. You lay down, Dale.

- Yeah, why don't you just shut it? - Lay down like you always do.

Just shut it! Just shut it 'fore I make you shut it!

Oh, big man's got his whiskey talking, huh, Dale?

When they throw me and your son out on the street,

you're gonna be out there flipping burgers on the fucking barbecue!

Fuck y'all.

Some of us got work to get with, so...

Sorry to spoil your fun,

but, uh, this piece of shit's done paid for.

Want me to give her a try?

When it comes to stubborn engines, got a good touch.

Keep doing that, you're gonna flood her.

Fine. Yeah.

Go on.

Well...

Thank you.

Hey, I'm sorry. It just feels like everything's being stripped away.

Just pulled away, you know?

And sometimes I...

think how much we got to lose before we got nothing left.

Maybe I can see if there's something I can do for y'all.

Boy's into NASCAR, huh?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, he lives for it.

You just do what you got to do with the TV, all right?

Don't mess yourself up on my account.

I won't mess myself up.

Why you being so nice to me?

Let's just say you seem like a decent person.

You know?

And I don't lay down.

Better get on now.

Well, thank you.

Hey, Clint, come on! Let's go.

Looks like you're a little light here.

Well, there's this person.

I was just hoping maybe we could cut her a break just now.

Maybe talk to Stewart or something.

"Her"?

So, uh... this is a woman, huh?

It ain't nothing like that.

Well, sure sounds like something like that.

Well, you never ask for too much, so, yeah,

I'll talk to Stewart and get him to cut this person a break.

If that's what you want.

- Ronny, why don't you hand me one of them. - There you go.

Today is the first day of a new dawn for all of us.

We'll remember it always.

All right, Mike, put the cherry on it.

Yes, sir.

Yeah.

They saying we can't fly the flag from the state capitol.

Yep.

Well, tell the goddamn NAACP this here's the new capitol.

Looking good, boy.

We're in the midst of an epidemic right here in Laurens.

More than 150 years of injustice from the plantations...

to where I stand today.

And I ask y'all to keep silent no longer

and join me in this fight.

How can we prevent this kind of thing from happening again?

Well, she could start by bringing a receipt.

I seen three people ahead of me getting no-hassle returns just like the ad say.

- Not a receipt in sight. - Mm-hmm.

Now, how you explain that?

I tell you. They white.

Gina, tell her you didn't mean nothing by it, and we can all be on our way.

I'm not apologizing for doing my job.

Can we please clear this up? We are getting slammed out there.

I ain't even got an apology yet.

Jesus Christ, Gina. I had to clock off for this shit.

On behalf of all the cashiers in the world, I'm...

I'm sorry.

Let me do your return.

- God bless you. - Mm.

At least one of you's got some sense.

Y'all go ahead and clock back in now.

Now, I hope you don't think that giving her a refund is gonna fix this.

Gina, hang back.

Well...

I know you're not talking about firing me because of this nonsense.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

I could hear it now. "The black man gets the poor white girl fired."

Reverend, why don't you just tell me what it is you'd like me to do.

Like you to teach your staff to stop seeing color.

Scrumptious meal, Rami. Catch you later.

Hey, Reverend. See you at the opening.

I'm expecting you to be the first customer.

- Want some more? - I'm good, Ma.

- You won't believe... - I heard. Been getting calls.

- I spoke to the Mayor. - Mm-hmm.

- To Councilman Edwards. - Mm-hmm.

Called the NAACP.

There ain't no way that Tom Griffin

is getting a business license in this town for that.

It's illegal, then.

That old movie theater, with it... with its...

- ugly history... - Mm-hmm.

...of segregation, with its "colored only" sign

on the side, still legible,

cannot be allowed to be resurrected into an institution

celebrating the terrorizing of our community.

What he's saying is that it's not illegal.

Were you excused from the table?

I know it's been a crazy, crazy day...

but you missed his big game.

It's all right. I got it.

- You go ahead, talk to him. - All right.

You sure you don't want no company?

Would you mind sitting with me for a little while?

I'll check on Kelvin and be right back.

Uh-uh. Here, baby. Come on.

Y'all must be lost.

Sorry, miss. We come from the rent-to-own.

We'll have to take that television back.

But... But, well, you see, my husband went...

Let me... Let me talk to him real quick, okay?

Look, man, um, you think we can let this one slide, man?

I, uh... I... I just...

Mike? Mike Burden?

You don't remember me from school, man?

We was kids together, man.

Sure about that?

Yeah.

Uh, Clarence Brooks, man. I, uh...

I ain't see you in years, man.

How's your mama?

Hey, Clint, why don't you go sit in the truck.

I'll handle this one.

Okay.

Yeah, it's been a while. Things are different now.

My mama ain't been around for a good long while.

Since I got back from the army,

got myself a job at the rent-to-own.

About the only thing I can do around here.

Yeah. Sure, man. I...

I got laid off when they closed Groggins, man.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

But I got a job.

Uh, just, you know, few and far between,

construction and...

You know, I got a check, man. It, uh, comes the end of the month, and by...

Hey, look, I'm with you, man, but this is my job.

If I don't do it, my ass gonna get repo'd.

He said he got a check coming from the state.

Yeah? Welfare check.

One, two.

These niggers, always with their goddamn handouts.

So you and him were buddies, huh?

Said I knew him. Didn't say I'd eat with him.

There is no fear in love,

but perfect love casteth out fear.

Because fear cannot exist

in the same universe of our hearts.

These forces are at war with one another...

- Mm-hmm. - That's right.

...and the weapons that we use to fight fear...

- They're not revenge. - No.

They're not hate!

- Right. - That's right.

They are and will always be... love.

Can I get a "hallelujah" up there?

Hallelujah!

- Perfect love drives out fear. - Yes.

- Reminds fear that it doesn't belong here. - That's right.

- Tells fear that it's time to move on and go away. - Go, sin! Go!

Go somewhere else.

- Get out, fear! - Use him, Lord.

Go away, fear!

Hallelujah up there.

Hallelujah.

Hallelujah up there.

Come on, Ray, get a little closer.

Hey!

- Yeah! - Oh!

Oh!

Look familiar?

Damn it, lard-ass. Quit horsing around, get them racks finished up.

I tell you, we're gonna make a fortune.

Fifty bucks each.

Look what I found.

- That's amazing. - What is it?

Well, it says right here. Uh, "To Tom and Mike.

From the man who first came up with the KKK

to the men who came up with the first KKK museum.

- Good luck, Horace King." - Horace King.

Well, look at that.

Okay, Mike, take it away.

- Put it somewhere special. - Yes, sir.

That's hot. That's hot.

The timing belt does exactly, but I know...

- Adjusts the carb. - Yeah.

Looks like that carburetor there.

- Yup. - Says 101.

- Does it? 101? - Yeah. You see it?

And then the red, black and green says...

a hundred.

You're so funny.

Evening, ma'am.

Hi. Hey.

Saw you come up. Figure I'd come over and say hey.

Yeah. Well, I'm glad you did.

I, uh...

Well, you know, I didn't want to cause any problems for you,

stopping by the rent-to-own,

but I wanted to say thank you

for what you done the other night.

It was no big deal.

Well, uh, maybe I can return the favor.

Hey, y'all, uh...

want to come on down to the pits with the guys?

- Yeah. That'd be so cool. - Oh, yeah.

- Can we, Ma? - We can.

You like that?

That's kind of you.

Come on, little man.

Thank you.

- Can we cross here? - You're with me, you can.

It's not dangerous or nothing?

Only if you eat the hot dogs.

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen!

- Who's that woman? - That's her.

That's the girl Mike put up for the other day at the job.

- This here's Tom, Clint, Ronny. - Hey.

Got a name?

Franklin.

Franklin, these are the boys.

- Make yourself at home. Want a beer? - No.

Come with me.

Here comes Tom Griffin's own car number four!

Why don't you give her a spin.

Okay.

- Now you get ready for bed. - You're welcome.

All right there, little Speed Racer.

Why don't you motor on in, huh?

I'll be in in a minute.

Well...

Well...

I can't thank you enough for tonight.

You know, seeing him like that with all your friends and the race and all.

Well, thank you. That was... You have no idea how much that means to him.

Look, I had fun.

You did?

Yeah.

Well...

Good night.

Good night.

Oh, hey. Sweatshirt.

- Oh, you can hold on to it. - No. It's all right.

I don't know. One of us had to do something.

They got the Martin Luther King museum.

They got the Jew museum.

Hell, they got Armenian museums and the Native American museums

and Hispanical cultural centers right here on American soil.

- That's right. - And here we are,

the chosen people of God and Jesus,

fighting for the right to celebrate the white man.

Yeah!

We're gonna fight for God's will for racial purity,

to keep our families safe

- from dark-skinned murderers and rapists. - Yeah.

- Keep our blood pure. - Amen!

We're gonna fight for the Klan museum with God on our side.

- Yes! - Amen!

- And fire in our souls. - Yes, sir!

And we are gonna do whatever it takes

for the cause of justice for the white man.

- Right on! - That's right!

Turn.

To God!

To country!

To Klan!

We will remember Saint Paul Methodist.

Yes, we will. We will remember.

Mount Zion.

Yes.

Countsville African.

Yeah.

And Century United.

Yes, sir.

Remember them?

- Remember them? - Yes, sir.

And we must make sure it never happens again.

Hallelujah.

- Hallelujah. - In Jesus' name.

The church bombings.

Killing of innocent children.

But in the midst of it all...

- Jesus Christ said, "Love thy enemies." - Yes, he did.

But when it's time to fight, we will fight!

- Yes, sir! - Yes, we will. Yes, we will.

Yes, we will, now.

Come on, everybody, now.

- Jesus Christ said, "Rebuke evil." - Yes, sir!

And the Redneck Shop is evil.

- In the name of the Lord. - Come on!

They may set crosses burning in the middle of the night,

but we will fill the night with a different kind of fire.

- Yeah! - The fire of love.

And it's gonna take all the love in our hearts tomorrow, y'all.

Yeah, it is. You know that's right.

That's a dead nigger, just hanging from that tree.

Best picture we got. Now come over here.

And while you're here, you realize you're making a choice.

You're gonna respect yourself. You're gonna respect the flag.

Looks like we got a bona fide recruitment magnet right here.

It's a good day.

Look around you. Doesn't it make you sick?

Don't you want that white American dream

that they're taking away from you?

Now, I can't hear you.

- Yeah! - Sure do, sir.

Not "yeah." Yes!

- Yes! - All right. Very good.

Now, I... I need to make an announcement.

Y'all know that this day has been

a dream of mine for a long time.

But this dream would have been impossible

without a special person's loyalty, hard work and vision.

And I believe that in this life,

you reap the reward of hard work.

I'd like to announce that I am gonna give the deed

to this here building to Mike Burden.

Go on. Take it.

That deed gives me a lifelong lease on this shop.

At least I know that when I'm dead and gone,

our legacy will continue.

Mike Burden.

- Yeah! - Let's go, Mike.

- White pride! - White pride!

White pride, yeah!

Hey.

How's it going on with you?

Just excited to see you is all.

Hey, uh... you want to get a beer?

Or coffee?

Or water?

You know...

Franklin's, uh, at his friend's,

and I'm watching them both tonight, so I can't, but, uh...

you can give me a ride if you want.

Come on.

It's just right here.

Whose kid is Franklin playing with, anyway?

Clarence Brooks' boy.

- Clarence? - Yeah.

I told you I wasn't gonna spray you.

Like that.

Duane is Frankie's best friend.

We've been doing this ever since they was little.

Hey.

I'll call you later.

Hey.

How are you? Yeah.

What you doing with him?

Oh, you know, just...

spend some time. Why?

Hey, Toosie, bring me a towel.

I know Mike Burden. Uh, we used to hang out just like these two.

- Yeah? - Yeah, a long, long time ago.

But things are different now, you know.

Why's that?

Klansmen don't play with no black man.

Oh, man, I'm sweating my balls off.

- I'm sweating? - A little bit.

The food's spicy.

- It's got a little kick to it. - A little kick to it, huh?

Hey, it stings going in, it's gonna sting going out.

It's good, though.

Can't believe we haven't been here.

Oh.

Well, it's right next door.

Tom and I... we were thinking, "What the hell?"

- Now we come back here all the time. - Yeah.

Most folks are scared on account of Rami looks like

a-a mongrel, you know, a half-breed.

He ain't. He's a full-blooded Indian guy.

Speak of the devil.

Ah, Mr. Tom, how is everything tonight?

Couldn't be better, my man.

You sure there ain't no dog in this?

No, my friend. I think you think of the Chinese.

Oh, you got to be careful of them now. They're sneaky.

Remember that there Pearl Harbor?

Honey, that's the Japanese.

Remember them Japanese in Pearl Harbor?

Okay. Everyone, enjoy. Dessert is on my treat.

- Thank you. Thank you. - Thank you.

Okay. So, this, um...

A woman goes into a welfare office to register her dog.

And a woman behind the counter says,

"You can't register a dog. Dogs can't apply."

And the woman looks in her eye and says,

"Why not? Got all the qualifications.

One, he's black. Two, he don't do nothing but sit on his butt all day.

And three, he has no idea who his pa is."

Shoot, Mike, if I didn't know better,

I'd say that woman didn't like my sense of humor.

Stop.

Michael, I don't like that Tom Griffin.

Come on. He was just kidding. Everybody's laughing.

Do you think it's funny?

Do you?

Tom's like a father to me.

He looks after me.

These people are like my family.

And they're Klan, right?

My granddaddy was Klan.

All right. So you know, then.

Yeah, I do know.

I can't, Michael. I can't.

Hey, listen.

Come here.

Come here.

Yes, you can.

I can't think straight around you.

If the blacks don't like it, there are plenty of boats and planes.

They can go back to Africa any day.

We'll take their redneck asses to the hood.

- Shit, that's our Africa. - That's right. That's right.

No justice, no peace! No justice, no peace!

Ignoring the problem just leads to its growth, like cancer.

You got to attack it where it starts.

And for the people of Laurens who must explain why the KKK

is allowed to celebrate this dark division.

Amen.

The citizens of this town

should be able to walk through the streets

without the looming presence of hatred and bigotry.

Fucking niggers.

No justice, no peace! No justice, no peace!

Yeah, I was just calling for the reverend.

Yeah, I just wanted to, uh, remind you that you're just a man,

and to my knowledge, you ain't bulletproof.

You know, he just outgrew them all.

Let me tally them up, and I'll let you know.

- All right. - Okay.

Hey.

What do you think of this?

Oh, my sweet Lord.

What are we gonna do with that?

What, Franklin don't fish?

Shit, when I was his age...

I'd go fishing all the time for catfish.

My grandpa used to take me out and he'd say,

"Look, if you could sit on a boat all day

and not catch a bite, you're gonna grow some patience."

Maybe he needs some of that.

What do you think of this one here?

- Who, you? - No.

- What do you think of it? - For me?

Uh-huh.

I don't know.

You like it?

Yeah, I like it.

I'll get it.

- I'll get more than that. - Mm-hmm.

$9.78 for all that.

Spent, like, ten times that when I bought it.

I'll get him something from the shop.

There's all kind of stuff for him over there.

Uh, I don't know.

You really want to take Franklin fishing, huh?

Yeah.

Where y'all go fishing at?

Over there in Muddy Creek Lane.

We can't go down there now, though.

Why's that?

'Cause all the niggers done taken over that neck of the woods.

- Damn it, Michael. - Oh, come on. I'm a Klansman.

You gonna drive all the blacks out of Laurens?

I don't know.

Let's say they did all leave.

We'd still be white trash, with no one to step on to make us feel better.

Yeah, get that re!

Oh, all right! All right!

Hey, Daddy.

- Gonna give it to me? - Yes, sir.

Hey, why don't you come a little closer with that shit there, punk? What's up?

Hey.

Fucking niggers.

If them fools weren't Klan, we'd be dragging their white ass through the streets.

- Kel, what's up, man? - And guess whose black asses would be in jail then.

They got police ties.

Everybody, just relax. Let's go home.

Okay. Hit the dump quick. Meet you back at the store.

I'll be getting on. I was thinking about surprising Judy,

picking her and the kids up from school.

Well, why don't you leave them alone for a minute?

I mean, they've been getting back from school just fine all this time.

Yeah, you're right.

Hey.

I was kind of wondering...

You know, I've always appreciated having a place to live.

But ain't no place to raise a family.

Well, I was thinking about moving on in with Judy.

She's a little back on the rent.

Well, I was thinking maybe I can help catch her up, sort it out with the landlord.

Do my part.

Well, look, I'll tell you what. I'll...

I'll help you square up the landlord, and, uh...

It'd be, uh, good for you to be the man around the house.

So, this is you moving in, huh?

Yeah.

Hey. Who wants to go catch some dinner?

Oh, my sweet Lord.

Hey. So, you really gonna take Franklin down to Muddy Creek, huh?

Franklin!

- I'll meet you back at yours. - Hey.

Mike?

Hey! Mike!

Fuckers!

Rami called my dad soon as he heard the crash.

Police are there, the whole Channel 6 News team.

They smashed the whole front of the shop. Motherfuckers!

They catch 'em?

A dead nigger. Better pray he's in police custody.

Is he slowing down?

He is.

This asshole's slowing down.

That fucking coon is mocking us.

Stop.

Come on.

Come on, Clint.

Come on, now, get up.

I think it's better to do this now than to have to look later

at the face of an anguished black woman

whose son has been hung from a tree.

Yeah. Nice how you closed that shop.

And they're right.

Violence and the destruction of property

never puts an end to things.

Come on, now.

Think of the churches burning.

Bible says an eye for an eye.

That's Old Testament thinking.

That's not the preachings and the teachings of Jesus Christ.

You mean that blue-eyed Jesus white folks got hanging on their walls?

I mean the Jesus who's your Lord and Savior,

who says love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.

Oh, so you pray for those assholes.

Kelvin, seriously now, watch your mouth, boy.

See, Dad's saying that we're meant to be praying for the Klan.

Is that what you want? What, you want Ma using her prayer time on the Klan?

I don't need to be telling your mama what to pray for.

Right answer.

I'm not even gonna comment on Mr. Hunter's driving abilities.

All I know is that the shop is closed right now, and that's what we want, right?

I mean, that's what you asked us to pray for, right?

- Right? - Right. Yeah. Yes, ma'am.

Right.

- Hello? - Yo, man, it's Grant.

He got beat down real bad. He in the hospital.

Yo, come right now.

We got to go. It's Grant.

The kids are playing in the back.

- You want to come on through? - Yes, ma'am.

I don't believe you've ever been here before.

Well, come and let me show you. This is... This is our museum.

Isn't it wonderful?

Well, you know, blacks are welcome here, too, just like the whites.

Blacks fought and died for the Confederacy.

Where is Mike?

Oh, I'm s... Mike had a tow, so he had to leave.

But the kids are all in the back.

Okay, come on.

Stick it into that dark meat. Go.

Go, go, go. That's good. Stick it in that dark meat.

That's good, boy.

Stick it in there.

Franklin. Franklin, here.

Come here.

You give that back. Give that knife back.

Uh, no. That knife is a gift to your son from me.

No, we don't need it. You give that back.

No, it's fine. A gift is a gift.

- Be careful. - What?

Be careful.

Hey, baby.

Hey.

What's up? Hey, hoss.

Nice little bowie you got there.

Tom Griffin gave it to him. Told him to cut dark meat with it.

- Isn't that right, son? - Yes, Mom.

Go to your room.

Just a figure of speech.

Are you out of your freaking mind?

I saw Tom teaching him with my own two eyes.

That is it. It's over. I don't give two damns what you did when you was alone.

- You ain't alone no more. - I know.

When that son of a bitch starts messing with my son's mind,

that's where I draw the line.

It's just a knife. I had one when I was his age.

Yeah. Look where it got you.

Straight in the arms of Tom Griffin.

Michael...

you know, I...

I know you're Klan.

I still love you.

Do you really think that Tom Griffin would love you if you weren't?

I hate saying this because I'm so afraid of losing you...

but you gotta choose.

No justice, no peace.

No justice, no peace!

No justice, no peace! No justice, no peace!

- No justice, no peace. - No justice, no peace!

- More love. More love. - More love.

- More love! - Hate won't win.

- Hate won't win! - Love, not hate!

Love, not hate!

That's right. That's right.

Now, I was hoping

not to be back at this place.

But here we are.

I think they was hoping

that we wouldn't be back in this place, too.

Yeah, they were.

- But here we are. - That's right.

Thank you...

- Be careful. - ...for lending your body, not just in the protest

of the glorification of the Ku Klux Klan...

- ...and all the ugliness and hatred that it represents... - Yes.

...with their history of murder, of rape...

- Yeah! - ...of inciting terror

in the hearts of people of color,

but towards the march of equality...

...towards peace, towards unity

for all men and women in this great country.

That's right.

- There we go. - Amen.

The niggers are coming. They're coming up the street.

All right. Here we go. Uh, Clint, you and the boys wait here.

Mike, come with me.

You're up on the roof.

Remember, a man has a right to protect himself.

Yeah.

No, no, no, no, no, boys. My brothers. My sons.

Calm down. Remember why we're here.

Stay calm.

How long are we gonna let this go on?

Either you protest peacefully or you go on home.

Why don't you go on and tell Grant about peace.

Son, what are you thinking about? What are you doing?

Hold on.

Y'all want to go see the museum, it's gonna cost you ten bucks.

Might want to stop by the bank, though,

'cause we don't take food stamps.

See, that's just...

- Hold on. Hold on. - Right there, man.

Let's not do anything before things get out of hand, now.

Before things get out of hand, go.

Y'all heard Reverend. Go.

Hey, Kennedy.

You come to check out the merchandise? We got some new stuff for you.

You can get your picture taken in full Klan regalia for 15 bucks.

Only for you, it's free of charge.

Don't you want to know what it feels like to have the real power?

He ain't got no power.

Come on! Give it a shot.

I bet your uncle would've preferred to be under this hood than under a train trestle.

- Come on! - Back up! Yo!

- Everybody, let's file out. Let's go on home. - Y'all heard Reverend.

- File on out, everybody. Just go home. - Let's go. Let's go.

File out. Janice, get 'em on out of here.

♪ Kumba, kumba, Kumba vista... ♪

Don't you be eyeballing me, you fucking nigger.

What'd you call me?

- Kelvin! - Come on, fucking nigger!

Let's go. Let's go.

Baby!

Listen, Tom, we're gonna take him down.

We ain't gonna process him, all right?

So he'll be back in an hour and a half.

Okay. Thanks.

Well, at least someone had the balls to try something.

Just can't believe it was Clint and not you.

I think your mama'll understand

when I tell her we're having faggot for dinner.

I know you.

- Let me up! - Fuck you think you're doing?

You forget good, old-fashioned Southern hospitality?

Better late than never, son.

You're out of order, Klansman.

Fine with me. I ain't no Klansman no more.

Now, you just settle down, boy.

Don't go writing no check your ass can't cash.

Michael, honey, maybe you should just sleep this off.

There ain't nothing to sleep off.

You want to leave? That's fine.

Don't mean a thing to me.

Go.

God help you, son.

When was the last time you saw God anywhere around these parts?

I told you, Tom. That Judy must've had some nigger in her.

Anybody else got anything to say? Huh?

Any y'all?

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Hey, you stay here.

I'm out.

What's up, little man?

Go ahead. Want to put this cable back on?

If I can reach.

I ca... Yeah, I can't reach.

Never pull down.

That's the first lesson of mechanics.

How about up and down?

Yup.

And the back.

Y'all got to vacate the premises

by order of the sheriff's department.

- What are you talking about? - Failure to pay rent.

That ain't right. We're all paid up.

It's the middle of the night right now. We got a kid in here.

You can take it up with the judge in the morning.

Meantime, you got 30 minutes to gather your belongings.

You got anything in the kitchen you need?

Up we go.

Lion! We forgot Lion!

I'll go get it.

You're out of time.

- It's the kid's stuffed toy. - Not my problem.

It's a fucking stuffed toy.

No, I think it's okay to go get the kid's toy, but, uh...

we're gonna take the keys to the truck.

Feel like you got them all?

Why don't you rinse that out.

Hold it a little while.

That's good. Now we got to check them.

You know how you check them? Check them like wolves.

Do you happen to have any, uh, jobs available here?

Appreciate you.

Do you happen to have any jobs available here?

Thank you.

Yo, little man. Thank you.

Welcome to Chicken Run.

Oh, yeah. Thank you so much.

Hey.

I got fired!

Klan's reach runs far.

It's gonna be weeks before I see anything from unemployment.

I don't even have an address to send a check to.

Maybe we should leave town.

Well, better the devil you know than the devil you don't, huh?

Should've told me that before you made me leave the Klan.

Well, I didn't.

Now we got to go to the grocery 'cause, uh, all the food I got from the house is all gone.

I put gas in the tank today.

Are you saying there's nothing left?

Maybe a little something for Franklin tonight.

What about tomorrow?

All right.

You say "miss" if she's not married.

- You say "ma'am" if she looks old and respectable. - Drop it.

Hey, you got any change?

- Spare any change, ma'am? - No.

Spare any change?

Got any change?

Hey, you spare some change?

Hey, spare some change?

Hey. Spare some change?

Has the child and woman eaten yet today?

Why don't you ask them.

All right.

That tapioca there... that's my son's favorite, too.

What do you say, Franklin?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You know, Reverend, Mike here... he, uh...

he left the Klan for us, and that...

that's why we're in this...

what you might call predicament.

Where y'all been sleeping?

In the car.

All right, then.

Am I understanding that you would like a room for that man?

And his family.

You know who that man is?

I know him as a brother in Christ, Alvin.

And I know him as a brother in the Knights, Reverend.

I'm sorry. I'm booked up.

You're booked up?

Can't do it, Reverend.

You be careful with your new friend, Reverend.

- Dumbass Negro. - I just want to say the pie was good.

Thank you very much.

- Yeah. - How many pieces you eat this time?

Uh, that was him!

That's him. That is you.

- Hi. What's going on? - Hey, Daddy.

How you doing?

What? I got a booger hanging from my nose?

This here's Michael,

that's Judy, and this is Franklin.

They're gonna be staying with us for a while.

Well, welcome. Uh, let us get your things to...

I figure that, uh, they could stay downstairs in Kelvin's room.

- Kelvin, you can sleep on the couch. - My room?

Kelvin, go and help them with their belongings and show them down.

Yo, we better go home, head out. Thanks for dinner, Ms. Kennedy.

- Yup. - Reverend.

Yeah. Night. God bless.

I guess, just follow me.

I know, I know. I know. You're probably upset

'cause they're under our roof out of wedlock.

And I... I should've... I should've called you

and told you that I was gonna have dinner already.

Oh, shoot, David.

You miss two out of three meals chasing the Lord's work,

but this, this is...

Janice...

they're living out of their car.

They got no food. They got their kid.

You know that Clarence... he knows her pretty good.

You and I both know we are not talking about her or her son.

How could you let that man in this house

and endanger your family like this?

His woman said that he's left the Klan

and that's why they're in this state.

Did he tell you that?

I've been praying.

I've been praying for some kind of sign.

Now, if this ain't a sign, then I don't know what is.

I love your heart...

and you know I share your faith in God,

but I'm just not sure I share your faith in men.

Yeah, go talk to your son.

Yeah. Hey, wait up there.

I know you must be bothered, but he...

You know I don't agree with your ways,

but bringing your almighty struggle into our house?

- He left the Klan. - Left what? You don't leave the Klan, Daddy.

It's in you.

See, you see nothing from up in those pulpits.

I deal with guys like him every single day on these grounds.

They hate us.

And now he's sleeping in my bedroom.

Son.

Mm-mm. You don't have to be doing that.

It's all right.

Come in. Come in.

Oh. What, he asleep already?

- Yeah. - All right.

Try to get yourselves some sleep,

and we'll... we'll see you in the morning.

Reverend, thank you so much.

All the praise go to God.

Michael, gonna tomorrow see if we can fix you up with some work.

- Have a good night. You sleep well. - You, too.

So, what did that little deer ever do to you?

That's the best thing you could do for him.

That's what my daddy taught me.

One time, we was hunting.

I must... must've just been about Franklin's age.

I was out in the woods, all alone,

and this deer come right up to me.

And I was thinking, how cute...

oh, how cute this little thing was.

Like old Bambi and all that other shit, you know?

And I knew in that moment that he knew something about me,

that he could sense something about me.

And I knew we was gonna be friends, and he knew it.

And all of a sudden, just bam!

My daddy blows its head right fucking off.

And he called me a pussy when I cried.

I realized then that's the worst thing you can do for them...

make friends with them.

'Cause they get comfortable with you,

they're just gonna end up getting killed.

All right, then. Start tomorrow.

Ma, there ain't no hot sauce?

I forgot the hot sauce.

You can't have no pork chop with no hot sauce, now.

- I'll go get it. I'll go get it. - What you gonna do?

Something's wrong with this. It don't taste right.

What did I say, G? You tell them what I said.

- Hey! It's good, though. - Thank you.

- Hey. - Hey.

- Mike! Look who came for dinner! - Y'all good?

- Hey, Mike. - What's up there, little D?

Hey.

- Hey, baby. - Hi.

Can I get the hot sauce, please?

- Hot sauce? - It's hot, now.

I know. That's why it's called "hot sauce."

Oh.

I'll go wash up.

We got some plates in there for y'all.

I'm not hungry. Thank y'all.

- Be careful, now. - It might be too hot for you, Franklin.

- Ooh! - Oh, that's good.

Number four, Ronny. He's finally gonna do it.

There he goes. Waiting on the outside.

That's what you've been waiting for. Look at him go. Yes, sir.

Oh! Couple more cars to pass and he'll be in the lead!

Look at him coming back right there on the front.

Can we go down into the pits? I want to play in Tom's car.

- We got to sit up here. - There he goes, folks.

- Now, you want to get some roasted nuts or something? - No, I'm okay.

Another great turn. He's making his final move.

And now he's got the lead, folks! He's got the lead!

That's what I'm talking... Oh! Oh!

...banks off the wall.

Stay back.

You sit right there. You don't move, all right?

- Yes, sir. - Keep an eye on him.

Well, they didn't say a damn thing.

I got a feeling if there was something bad,

- they would've come on out. - Oh, good Lord.

Hello, Mike.

Come here.

Saw you at the races. Hoped you'd come down, see if he was okay.

Well, no matter what's gone down between us, it's still Ronny, you know?

Listen, I know I can be a pigheaded son of a gun.

But when you split, I...

I mean, I'm just... I'm just too old to lose a son.

That's how I think of you, Mike.

So, come on home.

You don't belong living with niggers.

I'm just here for Ronny.

- Hazel misses you something awful. - Look, it's just harder now.

Yeah, of course it is. That fucking Kennedy bossing you around and shit.

Christ, I thought you were gonna get rid of him for this town.

Now you're his whipping boy. Well, that ain't no way to live.

- Look, it ain't nothing like that. - Yes, it is.

You hear that?

It's that old sound of nothing... again.

The sound of nothing, huh?

Man, your bullshit's so loud right now, my fucking ears is ringing.

Yeah!

Hey, Burden! Got a visitor!

- Judy? - What you doing here?

Well, you know, we had leftovers from the dinner drive,

so I thought y'all could use them.

That's so thoughtful of you, Judy. You shouldn't have.

Can't take all the credit. Toosie and Jan cooked their behinds off.

Y'all enjoy your lunch.

- Yeah. - Thank you.

Ah, appreciate you.

- Hey. - Hey.

Seems like a good gig for you.

- It's a paycheck. - Mm-hmm. Well...

I'm real proud of you.

Tell your old lady thanks for us.

- Appreciate you. - One fine meal.

I'll tell her you say that.

Fine meal from a fine woman.

What? Ain't no shame in that.

Man, you think you're fucking funny?

- What you gonna do? - Let that go, man.

Just keep your mouth shut about my girl, everything be cool.

I don't think you get it. I'm the boss here, boy.

I ain't nobody's boy, man.

Listen, it's been one hell of a hot morning,

and we need to just chill. Mike, chill out, man.

Al, come on, man.

Shit, I'm just fucking with you.

But I'd sure love to tap that ass.

What'd you say, nigger?

Get off me! Get him off of me!

- Get off him, Mike! - Say it again!

- Get him off of me! - Say that again! I fucking dare you!

Chill out. Chill out. Chill out.

- You out your goddamn mind? - Did you hear what he said?

- Get him out of here. - Come on, Clarence.

Let's get out of here.

- Come on! - Nah, Mike!

Oh, fuck y'all.

He said "nigger," huh?

- Yeah. - So, he got fired, then?

Well, yeah.

He needs to go back to where he belongs.

- Back to the Klan? - He actually said "nigger"?

Sister Kennedy, it weren't like that. All right, so he...

I don't think the man know what he saying half the time.

And it was over Judy. It was all over the place.

Clarence, that man don't know nothing but how to hate.

Can't get rid of hate unless you replace it with something else.

H-He love Judy and Franklin.

That should be the first step to help to let go.

The boy is Klan.

And he's not all that smart to boot.

You know, I feel sorry for boys like that.

They've been told that being born white is the end-all, be-all.

But then they got to look at their sorry-ass lives.

White, male, poor,

raised up in... in brutality and addiction,

lacking education, lacking...

Teeth. Lacking teeth.

What you gonna do?

So, what you gonna do?

I'm gonna pray.

Klan... bastard!

I do not want him here.

What?

I, me, the man...

do not want that man in our house.

But...

this family, that man...

If I abandoned him now...

I won't be able to preach no more.

Are you drunk?

More drunk than sober. Not as drunk as I ever been.

Goddamn it, Mike! I already got one child to deal with!

- I don't need a-fucking-nother! - I was protecting your ass. None of this would've...

Protecting me by getting your ass fired? By calling him a fucking nigger?

None of this would've happened if you didn't come on down there

wearing that goddamn dress, trying to flirt with all those fucking guys!

Are you fucking crazy?

Is that what's going through your fucked-up mind? That's what you think of me?

You think I'm some fucking whore trying to get over on your foreman?

Is that what you think? Is that what you...

God. Yeah... Maybe I should just...

Maybe I should just go and get me another guy to get with.

Oh, yeah, you get yourself another guy.

- It's like you ain't never had a woman. - Well, I haven't!

I got all this shit coming down on me!

How am I supposed to deal with that, huh?

I don't even know what I'm fucking doing here,

with you, Franklin and all these fucking people!

Yeah, maybe I am crazy because this ain't my fucking life!

This is our life! This is our life, and you keep fucking it up!

Yeah! I'm fucking crazy, huh? I'm mad! I'm bad! I'm evil!

Yeah, out of my fucked-up mind, huh?

You stay...

stay away from me.

Been looking for you.

What you doing over there?

My uncle's grave.

On his birthday, I go out, I throw him a little party.

Them flowers is from my wife.

He loved them balloon just about as much as he loved that wine.

Is this your uncle you said...

Was lynched by the Klan.

Aren't you ever worried that's gonna happen to you?

Should I be?

Michael, if you truly want to leave the Klan,

then your first step is admitting what you done.

Here you go, uncle.

You know, when I was growing up...

my mama used to take the bus to work.

And on that route she took home,

there was a dog

that was staked to the yard of this man's house.

Many times, she'd see that dog being brutally beaten by that man.

One day, when that man wasn't home...

she got off the bus and she stole that dog,

and she brung him home and she named him Solomon.

That dog... he was so grateful.

And if ever somebody went through

the tiniest little squabble with my mama,

she'd have to put Solomon in another room.

Otherwise, that dog, he would bite.

You can come with me if you want.

Now, I could tell you ain't had the best of life.

But you can't go through life thinking like a beaten dog.

I ain't a thinking man like you, Rev.

All I was trying to do was just find a nice little place

for me and Judy to just have a home.

Have a family.

So I don't have to keep looking over my shoulder,

feeling like I got to keep choosing sides.

Align yourself with love,

with God, and there will be no more sides.

But you must take responsibility for your actions.

Then you can repent and find redemption.

I appreciate everything you done for us.

I just know that being with you, it ain't safe.

It's time for us to just move on.

Saw a trailer on the side of the street

that was selling for about a thousand bucks.

I was wondering if maybe you knew somebody

that might want to buy a building for about that much.

Sir, if I call you my enemy, I'll walk through Heaven

and I will punch God just to get to you.

If I call you my friend...

I'll walk through hell and I'll slap the devil for you.

Hey there, Bob.

Just in time for the end of lunch.

Got no time for the good stuff today.

I thought you ought to know, your boy Mike Burden...

he done sold the deed to the shop over to that church.

Well, maybe I got a minute to get off my feet.

Want to go for a walk or something?

Mm-hmm.

Get back, dude.

Block him!

Ah! Oh, no. He got it. That's first down.

How'd you let him get by you, Franklin?

I was over in the army.

I was parachuting down.

Landed on a big ol' tree.

Hit the ground pretty hard. Ended up breaking almost every bone in my damn body.

Got titanium in my knee here.

Broke my collarbone, just like...

- Get the fuck up! - Hey, man, get up!

Look at me. Look at me.

Well, this is a pleasant surprise.

We was talking about you, and here you all are.

It's a pity, though. We were gonna have a bonfire,

maybe roast up some marshmallows.

Because y'all is here, there ain't enough for everybody.

The only way y'all burning anything down is over my dead body.

Well, lookee here, son. You might just get what you're asking for.

I ain't your son.

You're damn right.

All my life, I've been treated like one of them pit bulls

y'all got staked to your lawn,

grateful for everything Tom gave me, snarling at nothing.

I ain't getting down on all fours for you no more.

This time, you ain't sneaking up on nobody.

You're right, Gus.

'Cause this time I ain't raising a finger.

I like my marshmallows burnt.

Like that.

I said let him be. This has nothing to do with him. It's me.

It's about him. You ought to know that.

- No. - You like that, you motherfucker?

- Fucking piece of shit. - Let's get on with this.

I'll take that shit. Now we're gonna watch them burn.

- No. Enough! - What the fuck?

Stop!

It's over.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Get the fuck out of here.

You think you won something tonight?

You think this is ever gonna end?

Never. We ain't ever gonna stop.

That reverend, that church, that boy...

we're gonna burn 'em down.

And that woman of yours... I'm gonna enjoy that.

You're a poison in the well of these folks.

Anybody who takes you in.

Can you please state your full name for the record?

Michael Roderick Burden.

You are aware that you're being deposed

in the case of Kennedy v. Griffin?

I am.

In April, do you recall Tom Griffin

signing over the deed to the property

at 108 West Laurens Street to you?

Yes, sir.

And while staying with the Reverend Kennedy,

you sold this property to the New Beginnings Baptist Church

for $1,000?

Yeah.

While you were with the Kennedys,

you also informed the Reverend Kennedy

about a plot to kill him involving Tom Griffin?

Yeah. He asked me to kill him.

- "He"? - Tom Griffin.

Is there anything more you would like to add to your statement, Mr. Burden?

Yeah.

June 23...

1996.

I beat a man real bad.

His name was... Grant Davis.

You realize you're incriminating yourself in a felony?

I acted alone.

I am sorry.

Done a lot of bad things in my life.

Things I now regret.

I've hurt a lot of people.

Hurt a...

hurt a lot of black people.

Hurt you people.

And I... I carried the cross, wrapped the cross and lit the cross.

I was gonna kill your preacher here.

Have mercy, Lord.

I was up on that roof...

rifle in my hand, and I couldn't do it.

Thank God I didn't.

- Amen. - Oh, yeah.

Amen.

Couldn't. That's the truth.

So now here I is, standing before you

as a man that can't go back.

Because I don't want to.

I want you to know I'm sorry.

Hope maybe one day y'all can forgive me.

Hope God can forgive me.

Hey.

Hey.

I don't like saying it, really. They call me a nigger lover.

We see the Klan moving and we see the skinheads

and the neo-Nazi groups moving all throughout America,

and we get discouraged.

I bear witness in my spirit. There's hope!

I see the other side of Mike that no one else sees.

Behind closed doors, he's a different person.

I can't see me hating someone just because of the color of their skin.

She changed me.

She's the one that started chipping

at that itty-bitty hole that was in that wall.

And eventually, that itty-bitty hole got bigger

and it got bigger and it got bigger.
