Did they give you a crown?

but I only wear it on
official state business.

that Detroit is next.
331

ARETHA: Well, I hope not.
332
00:15:27,135 --> 00:15:31,722
ALAN: Some people think that
things are better for the negro
333
00:15:31,722 --> 00:15:35,393
now then they've been,
let's say, a few years ago.
334
00:15:35,393 --> 00:15:37,436
Can you explain the
reason for the riots?
335
00:15:37,979 --> 00:15:41,149
ARETHA: Well, what I wanted to
say that I agree with Dr. King.

I know you was raised
to respect your elders,
529

but you don't need to give
them mean gals the time of day.
530

ARETHA: I'll remember that.
531
00:24:04,902 --> 00:24:08,072
SAMMIE: Next time they
come for you, look for me.
532
00:24:08,072 --> 00:24:10,908
Cause I'm going
to look out for you.
533
00:24:10,908 --> 00:24:12,284
I knew your mother;
534
00:24:12,284 --> 00:24:15,287
she had that
same shine you got.
535
00:24:15,287 --> 00:24:16,997
She'd be proud of you.
536
00:24:16,997 --> 00:24:19,375
ARETHA: I don't think
Momma would be proud
of me having a baby.
537
00:24:19,375 --> 00:24:24,088
SAMMIE: If your
momma was around that baby
wouldn't have happened.
538
00:24:28,217 --> 00:24:30,219
Is the father helping?
539
00:24:30,219 --> 00:24:33,722
You ain't got to tell me who
he is, all I want to know is,
540
00:24:33,722 --> 00:24:35,140
is he helping?
541
00:24:35,140 --> 00:24:36,475
ARETHA: It's all right, Sammie.
542
00:24:36,475 --> 00:24:38,894
You don't have
to worry about me.
543
00:24:45,901 --> 00:24:47,319
SAMMIE: What do you
like to do for fun when you
544
00:24:47,319 --> 00:24:49,697
not on the road?
545
00:24:49,697 --> 00:24:52,282
ARETHA: Roller skate,
listen to the radio.
546
00:24:52,282 --> 00:24:54,994
SAMMIE: Have you heard that
song Loveable by Dale Cooke?
547
00:24:54,994 --> 00:24:56,662
ARETHA: You don't know?
548
00:24:56,662 --> 00:24:58,998
There's no such
thing as Dale Cooke.
549
00:24:58,998 --> 00:25:01,417
It's Sam Cooke
using a pretend name.
550
00:25:01,417 --> 00:25:03,836
SAMMIE: So, he can get
away with singing pop music?
551
00:25:03,836 --> 00:25:05,045
No!
552
00:25:05,045 --> 00:25:07,131
Sam Cooke
is a gospel singer.
553
00:25:07,131 --> 00:25:09,299
Ain't no way he
going to be going around
singing no pop music.
554
00:25:10,050 --> 00:25:11,552
ARETHA: I'd know
his voice anywhere.
555
00:25:11,552 --> 00:25:13,012
He used to sing
at Daddy's church.
556
00:25:13,012 --> 00:25:16,056
SAMMIE: Oh, if folks found
out they would pitch a fit.
557
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:17,850
ARETHA: Folks like
Darlene and her friends?
558
00:25:17,850 --> 00:25:20,811
SAMMIE: They would say he's
singing that devil's music
559
00:25:20,811 --> 00:25:22,855
and run him out
of town on the rail.
560
00:25:22,855 --> 00:25:24,023
ARETHA: Would you?
561
00:25:24,023 --> 00:25:26,233

was singing, ooh,
562
00:25:26,233 --> 00:25:29,403
the minute he start to sweat,
I start fanning myself.
563
00:25:32,031 --> 00:25:34,992

You sang really
beautifully tonight.
660

Turns out, Daddy doesn't
want to be on the road with us.
667
00:31:39,773 --> 00:31:42,818
KING: It's because he has
his own flock to attend to.
668
00:31:42,818 --> 00:31:44,945
ARETHA: And he
wants me to come home.
669

He and the mayor are
organizing an event that
he wants me to attend.
670

KING: Having a preacher
for a father is a blessing.
671
00:31:52,077 --> 00:31:54,996
But it comes
with its challenges.
672

you were quite young.

I learned a lot.

ARETHA: Well, these hotels
like to keep the air way up and
676
00:32:09,052 --> 00:32:10,470

00:39:44,966 --> 00:39:46,676
ARETHA: Don't you
worry about that.
847
00:39:46,676 --> 00:39:49,053
KING: Oh, I see what you do.
848
00:39:49,053 --> 00:39:51,890
Between your father and your
husband, you make it all work.
849
00:39:55,268 --> 00:39:57,270
ARETHA: Do I?
850
00:39:58,813 --> 00:40:00,857
KING: I know you've heard me
speak probably more times than
851
00:40:00,857 --> 00:40:03,526
you care to over
the past many months.
852
00:40:03,526 --> 00:40:06,404
But every time I talk about
freedom for our people,
853
00:40:06,404 --> 00:40:09,324
I'm also talking
about freedom of the mind,
854
00:40:09,324 --> 00:40:11,534
psychological freedom.
855
00:40:11,534 --> 00:40:13,703
To achieve what we
want to as a people,
856
00:40:13,703 --> 00:40:16,748
we need to start
with personal freedom.
857
00:40:20,209 --> 00:40:22,712
Where did the bone break?
858
00:40:22,712 --> 00:40:25,798
ARETHA: Uh, here
was the worst of it.
859
00:40:27,634 --> 00:40:30,261
I felt like a bird
with a broken wing.
860
00:40:37,477 --> 00:40:39,687
CL: There you are.
861
00:40:42,231 --> 00:40:44,275
Ya'll done
snuck out the party.
862
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:45,944
Come on,
let's go back in.
863
00:40:45,944 --> 00:40:49,530
Do you want folks to
think you chose Dr. King
over your own father?
864
00:40:49,781 --> 00:40:51,199
Come on.
865
00:40:51,199 --> 00:40:52,450
KING: I'll be in, in a minute.
866
00:40:52,450 --> 00:40:53,701
CL: All right, thank you, Doc.
867
00:40:53,701 --> 00:40:56,329
KING: Get well now,
cause we need you.
868
00:41:00,959 --> 00:41:02,919
SAMMIE: And he
gave you his jacket!
869
00:41:02,919 --> 00:41:04,629
ARETHA: Only because he
knows me from when he used to
870
00:41:04,629 --> 00:41:06,005
come sing at Daddy's church.
871
00:41:06,005 --> 00:41:07,548
But the way he
was singing tonight,
872
00:41:07,548 --> 00:41:09,550
he never
sang like that before.
873
00:41:09,550 --> 00:41:11,135
You think I could
be a pop singer?
874
00:41:11,135 --> 00:41:13,346
SAMMIE: Sam Cooke
sure think you can be.
875
00:41:13,346 --> 00:41:15,932
ARETHA: And then I'll
throw my coat on the ground,
876
00:41:15,932 --> 00:41:17,725
just like he does.
877
00:41:17,725 --> 00:41:20,228
SAMMIE: Oh, you better pick
that up or I'm going to take it.
878
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,355
ARETHA: He never sang
like that in church.
879
00:41:22,355 --> 00:41:24,148
And he never looked
that way in church.
880
00:41:24,148 --> 00:41:27,318
SAMMIE: If I married
him it'd be Sam and Sammie.
881
00:41:28,403 --> 00:41:30,321
Ooh.
882
00:41:30,321 --> 00:41:32,031
CL: Where the hell you been?
883
00:41:32,407 --> 00:41:34,575
Oh, you grown now,
huh, you grown.
884
00:41:34,575 --> 00:41:36,703
SAMMIE: It's my fault,
Reverend Franklin.
885
00:41:36,703 --> 00:41:41,249
Re didn't even want to go
out but I talked her into it.
886
00:41:41,958 --> 00:41:44,836
CL: Did I ask you
for your explanation?
887
00:41:46,045 --> 00:41:50,425
Go on back in your room and
let me have a conversation
with my daughter.
888
00:41:51,217 --> 00:41:52,385
Go on now.
889
00:41:52,385 --> 00:41:54,470
SAMMIE: I'm sorry.
890
00:41:55,096 --> 00:41:58,099
ARETHA: I'm sorry, Daddy.
891
00:41:58,349 --> 00:42:00,268
CL: Went to a juke joint, huh?
892
00:42:00,268 --> 00:42:01,811
(chuckles).
893
00:42:01,811 --> 00:42:03,021
You're 13.
894
00:42:03,021 --> 00:42:04,647
ARETHA: I wanted to
see Sam Cooke perform.
895
00:42:04,647 --> 00:42:07,191
CL: I asked
you to stay inside.
896
00:42:07,191 --> 00:42:08,651
ARETHA: I was just
listening to music.
897
00:42:08,651 --> 00:42:09,902
CL: Oh, you fixing
to get in trouble,
898
00:42:09,902 --> 00:42:11,446
that's what you doing now.
899
00:42:11,446 --> 00:42:12,655
Now, I'm going to
send you back home.
900
00:42:12,655 --> 00:42:14,115
ARETHA: No!
901
00:42:14,115 --> 00:42:15,783
CL: You need to be with
the baby you have rather than
902
00:42:15,783 --> 00:42:19,203
be out here trying
to have another one.
903
00:42:19,495 --> 00:42:22,373
Now, take that jacket off.
904
00:42:24,042 --> 00:42:26,169
Give me that jacket.
905
00:42:28,087 --> 00:42:30,089
And what, what
you got on your lips?
906
00:42:30,631 --> 00:42:32,216
Come here.
907
00:42:35,470 --> 00:42:38,556
Go on and
get inside now, go on.
908
00:42:43,394 --> 00:42:46,397
MRS. JOHNSON: Hey, little Re.
I heard you had a late night.
909
00:42:46,397 --> 00:42:48,483
I hope you don't
mess up your song.
910
00:42:48,483 --> 00:42:50,902
CL: Mrs. Johnson.
911
00:42:50,902 --> 00:42:52,820
MRS. JOHNSON:
Evening, Reverend Franklin.
912
00:42:52,820 --> 00:42:54,822
CL: Mm‐hmm.
WOMAN: Reverend.
913
00:42:58,576 --> 00:43:01,412
ARETHA: Please
don't make me go home.
914
00:43:02,830 --> 00:43:06,501
CL: Well, why you want to stay?
ARETHA: I want to keep singing.
915
00:43:07,085 --> 00:43:08,920
CL: Hmm.
916
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,219
Would Sam's jacket help?
917
00:43:16,219 --> 00:43:18,012
ARETHA: Yes.
918
00:43:18,471 --> 00:43:19,889
CL: I bet it would.
919
00:43:19,889 --> 00:43:22,058
Come on.
920
00:43:22,058 --> 00:43:24,352
You better put this thing on.
921
00:43:25,019 --> 00:43:29,190
Turn around, let me see you.

00:43:30,691 --> 00:43:32,193
All right.
923
00:43:33,486 --> 00:43:35,279
You better sang, baby singer.
924
00:43:40,576 --> 00:43:42,662

KENNEDY (over TV):
Martin Luther King was shot
976
00:46:57,315 --> 00:46:59,734
and was killed
tonight in Memphis, Tennessee.
977
00:46:59,734 --> 00:47:01,360
(crowd gasps)
978
00:47:05,865 --> 00:47:08,409
In this difficult day,
979
00:47:08,409 --> 00:47:11,829
in this difficult
time for the United States,
980
00:47:11,829 --> 00:47:14,206
it is perhaps well to
ask what kind of a nation
981
00:47:14,206 --> 00:47:17,585
we are and what
direction we want to move in.
982
00:47:19,337 --> 00:47:24,091
For those of you who are
black considering the evidence
983
00:47:24,633 --> 00:47:27,470
there evidently is that
there were white people
984
00:47:27,470 --> 00:47:33,142
who were responsible, you
can be filled with bitterness,
985
00:47:33,142 --> 00:47:36,812
and with hatred,
and a desire for revenge.
986
00:47:39,482 --> 00:47:42,651
We can move in that
direction as a country,
987
00:47:42,651 --> 00:47:45,946
and greater polarization,
988
00:47:46,781 --> 00:47:50,743
or we can make an effort
as Martin Luther King did,
989
00:47:50,743 --> 00:47:54,246
to understand
and to comprehend,
990
00:47:54,955 --> 00:47:57,833
and replace that violence,
991
00:47:57,833 --> 00:48:02,213
that stain of bloodshed
that has spread across our land
992
00:48:04,423 --> 00:48:10,429
with an effort to
understand compassion and love.
993
00:48:12,098 --> 00:48:16,477
I had a member
of my family killed but
he was killed by a white man.
994
00:48:18,938 --> 00:48:22,274
But we have to make an
effort in the United States.
995
00:48:22,650 --> 00:48:25,861
We have to make an
effort to understand,
996
00:48:26,237 --> 00:48:29,824
to get beyond or go beyond
these rather difficult times.
997
00:48:30,616 --> 00:48:34,620
My favorite poem,
my favorite poet was Aeschylus.
998
00:48:35,830 --> 00:48:38,707
He once wrote
999
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:44,588
"Even in our sleep,
pain which cannot forget,
1000
00:48:44,588 --> 00:48:49,677
falls drop by drop upon the
heart until, in our own despair
1001
00:48:51,095 --> 00:48:56,475
against our will, comes wisdom
through the awful grace of God.
1002
00:48:57,726 --> 00:49:02,148
What we need in the
United States is not division.
1003
00:49:02,148 --> 00:49:05,276
What we need in the
United States is not hatred.
1004
00:49:05,276 --> 00:49:08,028
What we need in the
United States is not violence
1005
00:49:08,028 --> 00:49:10,030
and lawlessness.
1006
00:49:10,030 --> 00:49:13,784
But love and wisdom, and
compassion toward one another,
1007
00:49:15,411 --> 00:49:19,039
and a feeling of justice
toward those who still suffer
1008
00:49:19,039 --> 00:49:21,459
within our country,
1009
00:49:21,459 --> 00:49:24,253
whether they be white
or whether they be black.
1010
00:49:26,172 --> 00:49:31,969
