Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:06,206 --> 00:00:07,205
Good morning.
2
00:00:07,207 --> 00:00:09,975
Oh, good morning, nina.
3
00:00:09,977 --> 00:00:12,444
Say, I have a 2-for-1
Dinner coupon
4
00:00:12,446 --> 00:00:14,246
At cafe de boeuf--
5
00:00:14,248 --> 00:00:18,250
That's french
For "Cafe of beef,"
6
00:00:18,252 --> 00:00:20,185
And mary
Refuses to come.
7
00:00:20,187 --> 00:00:23,722
We've been
4 times this week.
8
00:00:23,724 --> 00:00:25,157
So how does 7:00 sound?
9
00:00:25,159 --> 00:00:26,758
Sorry, dr. Solomon.
I'm busy.
10
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:28,793
No. Let me explain.
11
00:00:28,795 --> 00:00:32,831
If I buy a steak dinner,
You get one for free.
12
00:00:32,833 --> 00:00:34,666
And then when the garcon
Turns his back,
13
00:00:34,668 --> 00:00:38,536
You can just slip me
A few bucks under the table.
14
00:00:38,538 --> 00:00:40,105
That's very generous
Of you,
15
00:00:40,107 --> 00:00:41,106
But I have a meeting
16
00:00:41,108 --> 00:00:42,307
Of the black
Student union.
17
00:00:42,309 --> 00:00:44,109
Nina, this coupon
Expires tonight.
18
00:00:44,111 --> 00:00:46,611
You'll still
Be black tomorrow.
19
00:00:48,014 --> 00:00:49,981
That's true, but I'm
Gonna have to pass.
20
00:00:49,983 --> 00:00:51,316
But--I'll tell you what.
21
00:00:51,318 --> 00:00:52,918
I'll come to the meeting,
22
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:53,919
And then we can
Go grab
23
00:00:53,921 --> 00:00:55,854
Some half-priced
Boeuf.
24
00:00:57,758 --> 00:01:00,725
Dr. Solomon, I don't think
You'd get a lot out of it.
25
00:01:00,727 --> 00:01:02,360
The meeting's
A discussion group
26
00:01:02,362 --> 00:01:04,463
For black members of
The pendleton community.
27
00:01:04,465 --> 00:01:06,932
Sort of like
Weight watchers?
28
00:01:06,934 --> 00:01:08,567
I'll be in my office.
29
00:01:08,569 --> 00:01:10,902
But--but nina--
30
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:15,107
I don't get it.
Why won't she admit
31
00:01:15,109 --> 00:01:16,408
That the black
Student union
32
00:01:16,410 --> 00:01:19,611
Is just a blatant ripoff
Of weight watchers?
33
00:01:19,613 --> 00:01:22,280
Because it's not!
34
00:01:22,282 --> 00:01:23,815
Dick, you've got
To accept the fact
35
00:01:23,817 --> 00:01:24,916
There are certain
Things in life
36
00:01:24,918 --> 00:01:27,185
You will never
Understand.
37
00:01:27,187 --> 00:01:28,953
Oh, I accept that.
38
00:01:31,859 --> 00:01:32,858
But what are they
39
00:01:32,860 --> 00:01:34,726
And why won't I
Understand them?!
40
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:14,700
Hey, harry,
How was the library?
41
00:02:14,702 --> 00:02:17,369
You are looking
At a free man.
42
00:02:17,371 --> 00:02:18,536
I returned the book,
43
00:02:18,538 --> 00:02:21,839
Paid the $14
In late fees,
44
00:02:21,841 --> 00:02:24,075
Checked it right
Back out again.
45
00:02:25,279 --> 00:02:26,544
Oh, but get this.
46
00:02:26,546 --> 00:02:28,880
The library is having
A poetry contest,
47
00:02:28,882 --> 00:02:30,382
And the topic is
48
00:02:30,384 --> 00:02:32,250
"If I could change
The world."
49
00:02:32,252 --> 00:02:33,585
Isn't that
Perfect for us?
50
00:02:33,587 --> 00:02:34,853
Yeah, sure.
51
00:02:34,855 --> 00:02:37,355
We've got a keen third-party
Observer perspective.
52
00:02:37,357 --> 00:02:40,258
Too bad poetry's stupid.
53
00:02:40,260 --> 00:02:41,660
I don't think it's stupid.
54
00:02:41,662 --> 00:02:43,729
I think it's boring.
55
00:02:43,731 --> 00:02:46,164
The sign said
There would be prizes.
56
00:02:46,166 --> 00:02:47,899
Prizes?
57
00:02:47,901 --> 00:02:49,634
You mean like
A trip to hawaii?
58
00:02:49,636 --> 00:02:51,637
Or like a dune buggy?
59
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,505
Hey, it's
The public library!
60
00:02:53,507 --> 00:02:54,506
Sky's the limit!
61
00:02:54,508 --> 00:02:55,507
I'm in.
62
00:02:55,509 --> 00:02:57,008
In!
In!
63
00:03:00,114 --> 00:03:02,047
[laughter]
64
00:03:02,049 --> 00:03:03,682
Uh-oh,
Solomon's here.
65
00:03:03,684 --> 00:03:04,750
Check, please.
66
00:03:04,752 --> 00:03:06,317
Oh, oh, good.
67
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:07,853
Listen, I've got
To talk to caryn,
68
00:03:07,855 --> 00:03:09,988
So if you guys wouldn't
Mind hitting the bricks.
69
00:03:12,726 --> 00:03:13,825
Did you happen to go
70
00:03:13,827 --> 00:03:15,994
To the black student
Union meeting last night?
71
00:03:15,996 --> 00:03:17,362
Oh, yeah, I went.
72
00:03:17,364 --> 00:03:19,797
Did you happen to take
Any notes or photos?
73
00:03:19,799 --> 00:03:22,801
You know how important
Those meetings are to me.
74
00:03:22,803 --> 00:03:27,205
Yeah.
Um, dr. Solomon,
75
00:03:27,207 --> 00:03:28,873
You're not black.
76
00:03:28,875 --> 00:03:31,376
Well, how black
Do you have to be?
77
00:03:31,378 --> 00:03:33,812
I mean, you're
A milky cocoa at best.
78
00:03:35,616 --> 00:03:37,649
This isn't
Really about color.
79
00:03:37,651 --> 00:03:39,384
I should have just said
African-american.
80
00:03:39,386 --> 00:03:41,086
Well, what happened
At the meeting? Tell me.
81
00:03:41,088 --> 00:03:43,221
Yeah,
I'm leaving now.
82
00:03:43,223 --> 00:03:44,356
I'll tell you
What happened
83
00:03:44,358 --> 00:03:46,358
On "The jeffersons"
Last night.
84
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,059
Weezy almost
Started a fire.
85
00:03:48,061 --> 00:03:50,995
Oh, oh, and they
Changed lionels.
86
00:03:52,066 --> 00:03:53,164
If I could
Change the world,
87
00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:54,800
I'd have
Every swimming pool
88
00:03:54,802 --> 00:03:56,735
Have a shallow end,
A deep end,
89
00:03:56,737 --> 00:03:59,571
And an unbelievably
Deep end.
90
00:03:59,573 --> 00:04:00,739
That is excellent.
Yeah.
91
00:04:00,741 --> 00:04:03,275
Ok, if I could
Change the world,
92
00:04:03,277 --> 00:04:06,144
I'd make every guy
Look like don.
93
00:04:08,582 --> 00:04:11,016
Then how would you tell
Which one was don?
94
00:04:11,018 --> 00:04:13,985
They wouldn't all
Be named don, dumbass.
95
00:04:15,656 --> 00:04:17,388
I wonder what
I'd look like
96
00:04:17,390 --> 00:04:19,858
If I looked
Like don.
97
00:04:19,860 --> 00:04:21,425
Oh. You guys,
Here comes dick.
98
00:04:21,427 --> 00:04:22,527
Check, please.
99
00:04:23,864 --> 00:04:26,297
You know what?
I've been thinking--
100
00:04:26,299 --> 00:04:27,298
We should all attend
101
00:04:27,300 --> 00:04:28,800
The next black student
Union meeting.
102
00:04:28,802 --> 00:04:30,168
Whatever.
Ok.
103
00:04:30,170 --> 00:04:32,170
Well, maybe
There's, like,
104
00:04:32,172 --> 00:04:33,972
A white one
We could go to.
105
00:04:35,042 --> 00:04:36,441
You think?
Why not?
106
00:04:36,443 --> 00:04:37,809
Bartender...
107
00:04:37,811 --> 00:04:39,778
Excuse me, are there
Any white support groups
108
00:04:39,780 --> 00:04:42,113
In this area?
109
00:04:42,115 --> 00:04:43,848
You mean like those
White power guys
110
00:04:43,850 --> 00:04:45,249
Who meet out
In hendersonville?
111
00:04:45,251 --> 00:04:47,018
White power.
112
00:04:47,020 --> 00:04:49,888
That sounds
Uplifting. Yeah.
113
00:04:49,890 --> 00:04:52,824
Thank you,
My white brother.
114
00:04:52,826 --> 00:04:56,360
We'll have two orders
Of buffalo wings, please.
115
00:04:56,362 --> 00:04:58,096
You people
Disgust me.
116
00:04:58,098 --> 00:05:00,732
All right, make that
One order of wings
117
00:05:00,734 --> 00:05:02,533
And one
Mozzarella sticks.
118
00:05:06,239 --> 00:05:07,405
Anyway,
It sounds like fun.
119
00:05:07,407 --> 00:05:09,507
Yeah. White people
Playing white games.
120
00:05:09,509 --> 00:05:10,842
Having
White discussions.
121
00:05:10,844 --> 00:05:12,143
Yeah, where
Do white people go
122
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:13,144
For really
Good pizza?
123
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:15,546
I'd be interested
To know.
124
00:05:15,548 --> 00:05:16,548
Hey...
125
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:20,018
You think barry white
Will sing?
126
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:22,454
Why wouldn't he?
127
00:05:22,456 --> 00:05:23,555
Man over megaphone:
Look to ourselves
128
00:05:23,557 --> 00:05:25,022
And the future generation
129
00:05:25,024 --> 00:05:27,492
To seize control
Of our nation's destiny.
130
00:05:27,494 --> 00:05:29,260
[cheering]
131
00:05:29,262 --> 00:05:30,329
You say, what's involved?
132
00:05:30,331 --> 00:05:32,030
This is our nation.
We were here first.
133
00:05:32,032 --> 00:05:33,965
We aren't goin' anywhere!
[cheering]
134
00:05:37,604 --> 00:05:40,872
Well, it's a good thing
Barry white wasn't there.
135
00:05:43,744 --> 00:05:46,578
Those guys
Were kind of creepy.
136
00:05:46,580 --> 00:05:47,746
Why do you think
They burned
137
00:05:47,748 --> 00:05:49,847
That giant lowercase
Letter "T"?
138
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:53,351
I don't want to be
A part of any group
139
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:55,887
That hates the lowercase
Letter "T."
140
00:05:55,889 --> 00:05:57,889
No, they hated
More than that.
141
00:05:57,891 --> 00:05:59,457
They hated
Just about everybody.
142
00:05:59,459 --> 00:06:00,959
You know
What would be good?
143
00:06:00,961 --> 00:06:03,060
If people
From different races
144
00:06:03,062 --> 00:06:04,963
Could live together
In peace
145
00:06:04,965 --> 00:06:07,031
And, oh,
I don't know...
146
00:06:07,033 --> 00:06:09,801
Say, harmony?
147
00:06:09,803 --> 00:06:12,871
Harry, how did you
Come up with that?
148
00:06:12,873 --> 00:06:15,073
That is so brilliant.
149
00:06:15,075 --> 00:06:19,945
You guys, that's the topic
For our poetry contest!
150
00:06:19,947 --> 00:06:20,946
Uncharted territory!
151
00:06:20,948 --> 00:06:22,280
Get a pen!
Get a pen!
152
00:06:27,254 --> 00:06:28,453
Oh, here comes dick.
153
00:06:28,455 --> 00:06:30,255
Check, please.
154
00:06:30,257 --> 00:06:32,423
Oh, nina, good.
155
00:06:32,425 --> 00:06:34,492
I wanted
To ask you,
156
00:06:34,494 --> 00:06:36,061
Did people
Dress up in robes
157
00:06:36,063 --> 00:06:37,796
At your black student
Union meeting?
158
00:06:39,767 --> 00:06:40,798
No.
159
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,167
And, uh, was there
A guy with a microphone
160
00:06:43,169 --> 00:06:45,036
Shouting unattractively?
161
00:06:45,038 --> 00:06:46,204
No.
162
00:06:46,206 --> 00:06:48,239
Ok, good.
One last question--
163
00:06:48,241 --> 00:06:49,307
Will you only rest
164
00:06:49,309 --> 00:06:50,809
When the blood
Of white people
165
00:06:50,811 --> 00:06:52,343
Overflows
The rivers of america
166
00:06:52,345 --> 00:06:54,679
And runs out to sea?
167
00:06:54,681 --> 00:06:57,182
No, I'll probably
Rest before that.
168
00:06:57,184 --> 00:06:58,717
Any reason you ask?
169
00:06:58,719 --> 00:06:59,884
No, it's just
That last night,
170
00:06:59,886 --> 00:07:01,719
I went to this rally
In hendersonville--
171
00:07:01,721 --> 00:07:02,753
You what?!
172
00:07:02,755 --> 00:07:04,422
You went to
A white power rally?
173
00:07:04,424 --> 00:07:05,824
Because of you.
174
00:07:05,826 --> 00:07:07,759
What?!
What?!
175
00:07:07,761 --> 00:07:09,461
I--I didn't like it!
176
00:07:13,533 --> 00:07:16,301
Ok, so what rhymes
With racism?
177
00:07:19,906 --> 00:07:20,972
Weigh station!
178
00:07:20,974 --> 00:07:22,874
All: yeah!
179
00:07:22,876 --> 00:07:24,676
Uh, that doesn't rhyme.
180
00:07:24,678 --> 00:07:25,844
Yes, it does.
181
00:07:25,846 --> 00:07:27,912
Ok, you know what rhymes
With weigh station?
182
00:07:27,914 --> 00:07:29,180
Playstation.
183
00:07:29,182 --> 00:07:30,582
That's it!
184
00:07:30,584 --> 00:07:31,649
Yeah, but, you guys,
185
00:07:31,651 --> 00:07:34,352
We already rhymed
Weigh station with racism.
186
00:07:34,354 --> 00:07:35,420
They don't rhyme.
187
00:07:35,422 --> 00:07:37,522
Playstation and weigh station
Rhyme better.
188
00:07:37,524 --> 00:07:38,956
Yeah, and that way
We can avoid
189
00:07:38,958 --> 00:07:43,728
The whole racism
Thing.
190
00:07:43,730 --> 00:07:45,163
It's such a downer.
I know.
191
00:07:45,165 --> 00:07:46,230
Isn't it the point
192
00:07:46,232 --> 00:07:48,433
That we want to talk
About racism?
193
00:07:48,435 --> 00:07:52,003
Yes. Poetry's hard.
194
00:07:52,005 --> 00:07:53,004
Well, you know,
195
00:07:53,006 --> 00:07:55,072
Poetry doesn't
Have to rhyme.
196
00:07:55,074 --> 00:07:57,475
What?
197
00:07:57,477 --> 00:07:59,944
Yeah, poetry that
Doesn't win prizes.
198
00:07:59,946 --> 00:08:01,980
You got that right.
199
00:08:01,982 --> 00:08:03,148
I mean,
Read walt whitman.
200
00:08:03,150 --> 00:08:04,516
He never rhymed.
201
00:08:04,518 --> 00:08:05,717
Look, either
Rhyme something
202
00:08:05,719 --> 00:08:07,619
With playstation
Or leave.
203
00:08:07,621 --> 00:08:10,421
Claymation?
204
00:08:10,423 --> 00:08:11,890
Finally something
We can use!
205
00:08:11,892 --> 00:08:12,891
All right.
206
00:08:12,893 --> 00:08:15,793
Racism is as bad
As claymation.
207
00:08:15,795 --> 00:08:17,462
That is a...
208
00:08:20,233 --> 00:08:21,866
Maybe we don't
Have to rhyme.
209
00:08:21,868 --> 00:08:22,867
That's
A great idea.
210
00:08:22,869 --> 00:08:24,636
Breakthrough.
Yeah.
211
00:08:27,741 --> 00:08:29,874
Ok, class,
Here's your exam.
212
00:08:29,876 --> 00:08:31,243
Just pass it around.
213
00:08:31,245 --> 00:08:33,211
I only have one
Because my assistant nina
214
00:08:33,213 --> 00:08:37,048
Refuses to make me copies.
215
00:08:37,050 --> 00:08:38,449
Did you do something rude
216
00:08:38,451 --> 00:08:41,353
Like accuse her of not
Being completely black?
217
00:08:41,355 --> 00:08:43,388
All I did was go
To a white power rally,
218
00:08:43,390 --> 00:08:45,090
And now she
Won't even talk to me.
219
00:08:45,092 --> 00:08:47,191
You went to
A white power rally?
220
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:49,261
Well, I am white.
221
00:08:49,263 --> 00:08:50,395
[groans]
222
00:08:50,397 --> 00:08:53,365
That is such a white male
Rationalization.
223
00:08:53,367 --> 00:08:55,933
Just deny the entire history
Of white oppression
224
00:08:55,935 --> 00:08:57,201
And then have the nerve
225
00:08:57,203 --> 00:08:59,037
To say that you
Want equality.
226
00:08:59,039 --> 00:09:01,172
Oh, yeah, right.
White oppression.
227
00:09:01,174 --> 00:09:03,642
I'm sure history really
Backs that one up.
228
00:09:04,944 --> 00:09:06,310
Well, yeah.
There's, like, slavery.
229
00:09:06,312 --> 00:09:07,345
Racial quotas.
230
00:09:07,347 --> 00:09:08,446
Japanese internment camps.
231
00:09:08,448 --> 00:09:09,447
Glass ceilings.
232
00:09:09,449 --> 00:09:10,448
What are you
Talking about?
233
00:09:10,450 --> 00:09:12,283
I didn't do any
Of those things.
234
00:09:12,285 --> 00:09:13,784
Let me ask you something.
235
00:09:13,786 --> 00:09:16,087
Do you even have
One black friend?
236
00:09:16,089 --> 00:09:18,389
Well, there's,
Uh, nina.
237
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:19,591
She's your assistant.
238
00:09:19,593 --> 00:09:22,126
Well, there's
You, caryn.
239
00:09:22,128 --> 00:09:23,528
I'm your student.
240
00:09:23,530 --> 00:09:27,699
Well, then,
There's...Al roker.
241
00:09:27,701 --> 00:09:29,267
He's on television!
242
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:31,369
You're kidding,
Roke's on tv?
243
00:09:31,371 --> 00:09:33,104
I got to give him
A call!
244
00:09:38,678 --> 00:09:40,745
[gasps]
245
00:09:40,747 --> 00:09:42,880
Ok, what?
246
00:09:42,882 --> 00:09:44,716
My students are right.
247
00:09:44,718 --> 00:09:47,084
I colonized
Every continent.
248
00:09:47,086 --> 00:09:49,721
I enslaved
An entire people,
249
00:09:49,723 --> 00:09:52,122
And even after
I abolished slavery,
250
00:09:52,124 --> 00:09:54,659
I--I continued
To marginalize minorities
251
00:09:54,661 --> 00:09:56,494
With economic
Disincentives.
252
00:09:56,496 --> 00:09:58,697
Don't let this
Eat you up.
253
00:09:58,699 --> 00:10:00,398
Angel food cake
Is white.
254
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,468
Devil's food cake--
Black!
255
00:10:03,470 --> 00:10:05,737
I know how you feel.
256
00:10:05,739 --> 00:10:07,271
Who gets to make
The first move in chess?
257
00:10:07,273 --> 00:10:09,474
The white guys.
258
00:10:09,476 --> 00:10:12,310
Dick, I've been through
This white guilt thing, too.
259
00:10:12,312 --> 00:10:13,611
White guilt?
260
00:10:13,613 --> 00:10:15,212
Oh, yeah.
261
00:10:15,214 --> 00:10:16,814
As a matter of fact,
One of my ancestors
262
00:10:16,816 --> 00:10:18,549
Was a proponent
Of slavery.
263
00:10:18,551 --> 00:10:19,617
Who?
264
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:22,253
Well, actually...
265
00:10:22,255 --> 00:10:24,655
My mom.
266
00:10:24,657 --> 00:10:27,058
How do you live
With yourself?
267
00:10:27,060 --> 00:10:28,793
She's not me,
268
00:10:28,795 --> 00:10:31,762
And I've learned
By observing her behavior
269
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:34,532
That we have the power
To do whatever we want.
270
00:10:34,534 --> 00:10:38,369
We have the power
To make changes in society.
271
00:10:38,371 --> 00:10:39,870
We do?
272
00:10:39,872 --> 00:10:41,940
Absolutely.
273
00:10:41,942 --> 00:10:44,909
So stop feeling guilty
And do something.
274
00:10:47,513 --> 00:10:50,448
After all, it's not
Like you picked
275
00:10:50,450 --> 00:10:52,917
The color
Of your skin, right?
276
00:11:00,427 --> 00:11:01,993
So, mrs. Dubcek,
277
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:04,596
What do you think
Of the poem?
278
00:11:04,598 --> 00:11:06,831
Well, the thing
About this contest is
279
00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:10,201
Everybody in it
Is under the age of 10.
280
00:11:10,203 --> 00:11:12,971
They're all kids?
281
00:11:12,973 --> 00:11:14,706
We are gonna kick ass.
282
00:11:14,708 --> 00:11:16,507
Yes!
Yeah!
283
00:11:16,509 --> 00:11:18,810
Uh, miss dubcek,
There's a man downstairs
284
00:11:18,812 --> 00:11:20,045
Pounding on your door.
285
00:11:20,047 --> 00:11:21,946
Oh, he woke up.
286
00:11:21,948 --> 00:11:23,381
Maybe I should
Let him out.
287
00:11:26,586 --> 00:11:27,585
Hey, dick.
288
00:11:27,587 --> 00:11:29,153
Hey.
289
00:11:29,155 --> 00:11:33,424
Does anyone remember why
We all decided to be white?
290
00:11:33,426 --> 00:11:35,359
Oh. Um,
I went with white
291
00:11:35,361 --> 00:11:36,393
'cause I thought
I'd be a little cooler
292
00:11:36,395 --> 00:11:38,696
In the summer.
293
00:11:38,698 --> 00:11:39,964
Well, don't
You remember, dick?
294
00:11:39,966 --> 00:11:41,065
All the television
Signals
295
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:42,900
That we picked up
In outer space
296
00:11:42,902 --> 00:11:44,068
Were filled
With white people.
297
00:11:44,070 --> 00:11:46,304
Oh, except for that, uh,
That black nerd
298
00:11:46,306 --> 00:11:48,772
With the hiked-up pants
And the oversized glasses.
299
00:11:48,774 --> 00:11:49,807
What was his name?
300
00:11:49,809 --> 00:11:50,975
Bryant gumbel.
Right.
301
00:11:55,582 --> 00:11:57,014
Well, guess what?
302
00:11:57,016 --> 00:11:58,650
We've unwittingly
Aligned ourselves
303
00:11:58,652 --> 00:11:59,817
With the most
Despicable force
304
00:11:59,819 --> 00:12:01,519
In western
Civilization.
305
00:12:01,521 --> 00:12:02,987
Bummer.
306
00:12:02,989 --> 00:12:03,988
Yeah, but, dick,
307
00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:05,523
We can't do anything
About that.
308
00:12:05,525 --> 00:12:07,192
We can't change society.
309
00:12:07,194 --> 00:12:08,193
And that's where
You're wrong.
310
00:12:08,195 --> 00:12:10,528
Mary says we can,
And you know what?
311
00:12:10,530 --> 00:12:11,796
I'm gonna do it.
312
00:12:11,798 --> 00:12:13,198
Well, how?
313
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,201
I'm gonna revitalize america's
Urban education system.
314
00:12:16,203 --> 00:12:17,968
I'm gonna create
Enterprise zones
315
00:12:17,970 --> 00:12:19,937
To draw in investors.
316
00:12:19,939 --> 00:12:23,641
I'm gonna set up a $1 billion
Minority scholarship fund,
317
00:12:23,643 --> 00:12:25,876
And I'd like us,
As a family,
318
00:12:25,878 --> 00:12:29,981
To kick it with sean
"Puffy" combs more often.
319
00:12:29,983 --> 00:12:33,217
No, dick, I meant
It's against the rules
320
00:12:33,219 --> 00:12:35,820
Of our mission
To change society.
321
00:12:35,822 --> 00:12:38,389
Oh, damn, you're right.
322
00:12:38,391 --> 00:12:40,892
I guess I'll just have
To concentrate on nina.
323
00:12:44,731 --> 00:12:48,298
Oh, nina, good.
I'm glad I caught you.
324
00:12:48,300 --> 00:12:49,433
Can I talk to you?
325
00:12:49,435 --> 00:12:51,002
What is it,
Dr. Solomon?
326
00:12:51,004 --> 00:12:52,670
No, no.
I'll just be a minute.
327
00:12:52,672 --> 00:12:55,540
It has come to
My attention, nina, dear,
328
00:12:55,542 --> 00:12:57,074
That you
Have been placed
329
00:12:57,076 --> 00:12:58,643
In a servile role.
330
00:12:58,645 --> 00:12:59,644
This job has put you
331
00:12:59,646 --> 00:13:01,979
On the fast track
To nowhere,
332
00:13:01,981 --> 00:13:04,449
But all that
Is about to change.
333
00:13:04,451 --> 00:13:06,984
I have some
Wonderful news for you.
334
00:13:06,986 --> 00:13:09,353
What?
335
00:13:09,355 --> 00:13:11,022
Nina...
336
00:13:11,024 --> 00:13:12,690
You're fired.
337
00:13:12,692 --> 00:13:14,058
What?!
338
00:13:14,060 --> 00:13:16,160
Fly!
Fly like a bird!
339
00:13:16,162 --> 00:13:18,095
Oh, you have
Finally lost it!
340
00:13:18,097 --> 00:13:19,496
Harsh medicine,
I know,
341
00:13:19,498 --> 00:13:20,532
But it's
What you need.
342
00:13:20,534 --> 00:13:22,000
This job is what I need.
343
00:13:22,002 --> 00:13:23,367
This job pays for
My health insurance,
344
00:13:23,369 --> 00:13:24,803
And I get to take
Free classes.
345
00:13:24,805 --> 00:13:26,037
Nina, sweetheart,
Trust me.
346
00:13:26,039 --> 00:13:27,906
I know what's best
For you.
347
00:13:27,908 --> 00:13:29,507
You don't know
What's best for me.
348
00:13:29,509 --> 00:13:30,841
You don't even know me.
349
00:13:30,843 --> 00:13:33,011
You think I'm some
Little helpless black girl
350
00:13:33,013 --> 00:13:34,345
Who can't make it
In the world
351
00:13:34,347 --> 00:13:36,781
Without the help of
Some enlightened white guy
352
00:13:36,783 --> 00:13:38,149
Showing her the way.
353
00:13:38,151 --> 00:13:41,052
And you say
I don't know you.
354
00:13:41,054 --> 00:13:45,489
Dr. Solomon,
When I look at you,
355
00:13:45,491 --> 00:13:47,625
I don't see color.
356
00:13:47,627 --> 00:13:50,995
I see a jackass.
Good night.
357
00:13:55,334 --> 00:13:59,837
"It takes me everywhere,
To places that I like.
358
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:05,109
And that is why, my friends,
Why I love my bike."
359
00:14:05,111 --> 00:14:06,110
Thank you.
360
