Honey.
9
00:00:24,257 --> 00:00:27,426
Oh, Mrs. O. Your face is lookin' fine.
10
00:00:27,451 --> 00:00:28,452
Thank you.
11
00:00:28,570 --> 00:00:31,255
So, fundraiser in the DMV.
12
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,783
- Yep. The usual.
- All right, so the usual then?
13
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,911
We've been using a lot of heat
on your hair lately.
14
00:00:37,662 --> 00:00:39,080
The edges need a break.
15
00:00:40,164 --> 00:00:43,042
But you're really rocking
this natural look.
16
00:00:45,420 --> 00:00:47,422
Could you wear this to the fundraiser?
17
00:00:48,506 --> 00:00:52,328
You want me to wear this
to a DNC fundraiser?
18
00:00:52,427 --> 00:00:54,153
So you want me to stroll on in there
19
00:00:54,178 --> 00:00:57,724
in my Reem Acra
and Jimmy Choos rockin'...
20
00:00:58,266 --> 00:01:00,226
Yeah!
21
00:01:00,602 --> 00:01:02,245
...my natural texture?
22
00:01:02,270 --> 00:01:05,373
You would break Twitter.
23
00:01:05,398 --> 00:01:07,250
That's not the only thing I would break.
24
00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:11,696
Oh.
25
00:01:13,031 --> 00:01:15,860
You know, it... it...
It do look good though.
26
00:01:15,885 --> 00:01:18,011
- Hmm.
- But we're trying to get
27
00:01:18,036 --> 00:01:20,221
these white folk to give us some money.
28
00:01:20,246 --> 00:01:21,931
Mm, and scared white people
29
00:01:21,956 --> 00:01:24,517
- don't open their pocketbooks.
- Mm. Mm-mmm. So...
30
00:01:24,542 --> 00:01:26,753
Straighten the Black right on out.
31
00:01:29,580 --> 00:01:33,276
For sassy Sasha, french fries,
chicken legs.
32
00:01:33,301 --> 00:01:35,528
- Been working on the golf swing?
- Thank you for your information.
33
00:01:35,553 --> 00:01:37,280
Yes, and I'm ready for a rematch.
34
00:01:37,305 --> 00:01:39,073
Oh, you think so? Hey, honey.
35
00:01:39,098 --> 00:01:41,678
Ah, Ms. Obama. So the next time
you're in New England,
36
00:01:41,703 --> 00:01:43,163
please come join us at the club.
37
00:01:44,062 --> 00:01:45,955
- You're gonna get on the course?
- Yes.
38
00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:48,141
- She's not...
- Mr. President.
39
00:01:48,166 --> 00:01:49,737
May I steal your wife for a second?
40
00:01:49,762 --> 00:01:50,888
Please.
41
00:01:52,070 --> 00:01:54,380
Oh, if we could only have you
for another four years.
42
00:01:54,405 --> 00:01:56,215
That we can't do.
43
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,593
- Mrs. Obama?
- But, donations like yours
44
00:01:58,618 --> 00:02:00,637
are an investment
in the future of the party.
45
00:02:00,662 --> 00:02:03,665
Mrs. Obama. Mrs. Obama, I'm Jennifer.
46
00:02:03,803 --> 00:02:05,281
Excuse me.
47
00:02:05,718 --> 00:02:08,656
And it is an absolute
honor to donate today.
48
00:02:09,003 --> 00:02:13,054
- Thrilled that you're...
- Jennifer, so nice to meet you.
49
00:02:13,079 --> 00:02:15,972
- Nice to meet you.
- So good to meet you, too.
50
00:02:15,997 --> 00:02:17,278
- Erica.
- Erica. Erica.
51
00:02:17,303 --> 00:02:19,113
It is an honor to meet you, Mrs. Obama.
52
00:02:19,138 --> 00:02:20,949
- Call me Michelle.
- Oh, Mrs. Obama,
53
00:02:20,974 --> 00:02:22,951
I'm so glad you're here today.
54
00:02:22,976 --> 00:02:25,995
We appreciate your generosity.
Gorgeous necklace.
55
00:02:26,020 --> 00:02:29,123
Oh, thank you. That means a lot.
56
00:02:29,148 --> 00:02:32,652
My daughter will be so mad
she's missed seeing you today.
57
00:02:35,989 --> 00:02:37,298
Girl.
58
00:02:37,323 --> 00:02:39,300
At least she didn't assume I was a maid.
59
00:02:43,121 --> 00:02:44,263
- Oh, my God.
- Mm.
60
00:02:44,288 --> 00:02:45,974
It is funny
61
00:02:45,999 --> 00:02:50,353
how you got two,
uh, uncomfortable Black women
62
00:02:50,378 --> 00:02:53,746
bending over backwards
so she doesn't feel discomfort.
63
00:02:53,771 --> 00:02:55,523
- Um, yeah.
- Right?
64
00:02:55,633 --> 00:02:57,026
Two terms in office,
65
00:02:57,051 --> 00:02:59,153
and she still don't know
what I look like.
66
00:02:59,178 --> 00:03:02,828
I could've been Aretha Franklin,
and she would've said,
67
00:03:02,853 --> 00:03:04,033
- "Hey, Michelle!"
- Uh, I mean,
68
00:03:04,058 --> 00:03:06,452
probably more like Halle Berry.
69
00:03:06,477 --> 00:03:09,497
- Nah, nah, nah. Oprah.
- Oprah?
70
00:03:09,522 --> 00:03:11,499
- We all look like Oprah.
- Naomi Campbell.
71
00:03:11,524 --> 00:03:13,151
- That's what you look like.
- What?
72
00:03:13,485 --> 00:03:16,279
You look real good, actually.
73
00:03:17,572 --> 00:03:19,507
So what time you gotta be up?
74
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:38,280
- Synced and corrected by synk -
- www.addic7ed.com -
75
00:04:40,655 --> 00:04:42,423
We have some returns now
76
00:04:42,448 --> 00:04:45,218
from the states that have had
polls closed in them.
77
00:04:45,243 --> 00:04:48,471
Uh, the polls aren't all closed
in any state yet in the country,
78
00:04:48,496 --> 00:04:52,141
but here are some of the returns
that we have so far.
79
00:04:52,166 --> 00:04:55,436
In, um, Indiana, we have
projected Ford the winner...
80
00:05:01,425 --> 00:05:04,278
...the polls have all
closed now in Kentucky.
81
00:05:04,303 --> 00:05:07,408
And 9 electoral votes
for Kentucky are now,
82
00:05:07,433 --> 00:05:10,446
by our calculations,
belonging to Jimmy Carter.
83
00:05:10,471 --> 00:05:12,721
- Shucks!
- And peanut farmer.
84
00:05:12,746 --> 00:05:14,694
Let's not be mean, Steven.
85
00:05:14,719 --> 00:05:17,099
It's the truth.
His whole family farms peanuts.
86
00:05:17,124 --> 00:05:19,000
Honey, will you
hand me my drink, please?
87
00:05:19,139 --> 00:05:22,568
Mr. Ford, where in the world
did your voice go?
88
00:05:22,593 --> 00:05:25,071
He left it on the campaign trail.
89
00:05:25,096 --> 00:05:26,806
I'm gonna make you a hot toddy.
90
00:05:26,831 --> 00:05:28,499
Thank you.
91
00:05:28,524 --> 00:05:29,756
Carter is now ahead with
92
00:05:29,781 --> 00:05:32,491
21 electoral votes, and Ford with 13.
93
00:05:33,492 --> 00:05:37,083
It's okay. It's early, we have time.
94
00:05:44,490 --> 00:05:46,701
Jimmy Carter has won in Mississippi.
95
00:05:46,993 --> 00:05:49,595
51% to 49%,
96
00:05:49,620 --> 00:05:51,973
uh, we believe
the final returns will be.
97
00:05:51,998 --> 00:05:54,767
And that puts Jimmy Carter over the top,
98
00:05:54,792 --> 00:05:57,562
uh, to be the next president
of the United States.
99
00:05:57,587 --> 00:05:59,480
He is the president-elect tonight.
100
00:05:59,505 --> 00:06:03,968
He now has 272 electoral votes.
101
00:06:05,761 --> 00:06:08,656
One reason for this move
back to the Democratic party
102
00:06:08,681 --> 00:06:11,784
may be that Watergate still
seems to be alive as an issue.
103
00:06:11,809 --> 00:06:13,453
Carter voters in our sample
104
00:06:13,478 --> 00:06:15,663
said Carter would restore trust
to government,
105
00:06:15,688 --> 00:06:18,124
though Ford voters said
the same thing about their man.
106
00:06:18,149 --> 00:06:20,084
And the Carter voters cited Watergate
107
00:06:20,109 --> 00:06:21,919
and the Nixon pardon as a big reason
108
00:06:21,944 --> 00:06:23,463
for voting for Carter.
109
00:06:23,488 --> 00:06:25,590
Asked what they disliked about Ford,
110
00:06:25,615 --> 00:06:27,758
again, the thing
those Carter voters said most
111
00:06:27,783 --> 00:06:30,119
was that Ford had pardoned
Richard Nixon.
112
00:07:08,741 --> 00:07:12,578
You fought an incredible race, Jerry.
113
00:07:13,538 --> 00:07:16,541
I'm very proud of you.
114
00:07:30,930 --> 00:07:32,557
I love you.
115
00:07:39,605 --> 00:07:41,566
Mm.
116
00:07:42,275 --> 00:07:43,693
It's, um...
117
00:07:45,403 --> 00:07:48,239
perfectly obvious that, um...
118
00:07:49,206 --> 00:07:54,092
my voice isn't up to par,
119
00:07:54,117 --> 00:07:58,432
and I shouldn't be making
120
00:07:58,457 --> 00:08:00,960
very many comments, and I won't.
121
00:08:02,477 --> 00:08:04,228
Let me call on the, um...
122
00:08:05,298 --> 00:08:08,134
the real spokesman for the family.
123
00:08:08,801 --> 00:08:10,094
Betty?
124
00:08:17,143 --> 00:08:21,856
The president asked me to tell you
125
00:08:22,898 --> 00:08:27,612
that he telephoned
President-elect Carter
126
00:08:28,154 --> 00:08:29,755
a short time ago,
127
00:08:29,780 --> 00:08:33,284
and congratulated him on his victory.
128
00:08:35,140 --> 00:08:39,602
It's been the greatest honor of
my husband's life
129
00:08:40,944 --> 00:08:43,461
to have served his fellow Americans
130
00:08:44,086 --> 00:08:49,258
during two of most difficult years
131
00:08:50,009 --> 00:08:52,011
in our history.
132
00:08:54,819 --> 00:08:58,059
I still can't believe
it's coming to an end.
133
00:08:58,084 --> 00:09:00,212
Do you know what you'll do next?
134
00:09:00,710 --> 00:09:02,287
I'm not sure yet.
135
00:09:02,813 --> 00:09:04,553
But whatever it is,
it won't hold a candle
136
00:09:04,578 --> 00:09:06,789
to documenting my favorite First Family.
137
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,361
Aw.
138
00:09:08,986 --> 00:09:11,514
Now, is there any room in particular
139
00:09:11,539 --> 00:09:13,958
you'd like to shoot
these last few images?
140
00:09:16,246 --> 00:09:17,789
Actually, yes.
141
00:09:25,678 --> 00:09:29,965
- May I help you?
- No, I am perfectly fine.
142
00:09:33,302 --> 00:09:35,054
There we go.
143
00:09:35,079 --> 00:09:40,030
Oh, I should've done
this a long time ago.
144
00:09:48,859 --> 00:09:52,029
I don't think there are many women
145
00:09:52,488 --> 00:09:54,490
who have had the chance
146
00:09:54,825 --> 00:09:57,537
to even sit at this table,
147
00:09:58,202 --> 00:10:01,414
let alone dance on it.
148
00:10:02,415 --> 00:10:04,041
Think you're probably right about that.
149
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:06,752
Here's hoping that changes.
150
00:10:09,968 --> 00:10:12,233
- Mr. President.
- Hello, Jerry.
151
00:10:12,258 --> 00:10:14,468
Is my wife dancing on tables again?
152
00:10:14,493 --> 00:10:16,303
Oh, I was just...
153
00:10:17,127 --> 00:10:20,533
celebrating all that we accomplished.
154
00:10:20,558 --> 00:10:22,243
It's the perfect way to do it.
155
00:10:22,268 --> 00:10:24,078
Mm. Care to join me?
156
00:10:24,103 --> 00:10:26,163
Oh!
157
00:10:26,188 --> 00:10:28,733
And give Chevy Chase more ammunition?
158
00:10:47,084 --> 00:10:48,419
Beautiful.
159
00:10:51,464 --> 00:10:54,400
Again, as at
the beginning of World War I,
160
00:10:54,425 --> 00:10:57,344
we had proclaimed
our traditional neutrality.
161
00:10:58,212 --> 00:11:00,366
Millions of Americans
were more interested
162
00:11:00,391 --> 00:11:02,532
in Joe DiMaggio and the New York Yankees
163
00:11:02,557 --> 00:11:05,411
taking four straight from
Cincinnati in the World Series
164
00:11:05,436 --> 00:11:07,646
than they were in the deadly games
165
00:11:07,671 --> 00:11:09,487
being played in Europe and Asia,
166
00:11:09,512 --> 00:11:11,764
where aggressors were out to take all.
167
00:11:29,418 --> 00:11:31,420
Thank you for seeing us.
168
00:11:31,445 --> 00:11:33,147
You remember Martha?
169
00:11:33,172 --> 00:11:34,774
Of course. Mrs. Hemingway.
170
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:36,425
It is very kind of you to take the time.
171
00:11:36,450 --> 00:11:37,618
Please.
172
00:11:37,973 --> 00:11:39,183
Mr. President...
173
00:11:40,638 --> 00:11:42,890
the SS Quanza
174
00:11:43,401 --> 00:11:47,488
is filled with Jewish refugees
fleeing Hitler's regime.
175
00:11:48,768 --> 00:11:50,562
They've been sailing port to port
176
00:11:50,748 --> 00:11:52,708
looking to be granted asylum.
177
00:11:52,795 --> 00:11:56,030
But even with the work
of the lawyer we've retained for them,
178
00:11:56,055 --> 00:11:59,058
Jacob Morewitz, no one will take them.
179
00:11:59,498 --> 00:12:01,442
If we don't get them legitimate visas,
180
00:12:01,467 --> 00:12:05,999
they will be sent back to Europe
and a horrible fate.
181
00:12:06,032 --> 00:12:08,349
As you know, Franklin, last year
182
00:12:08,374 --> 00:12:10,518
the MS St. Louis was turned away
183
00:12:10,543 --> 00:12:14,964
and 254 innocent lives were lost.
184
00:12:16,048 --> 00:12:20,135
We have an opportunity
here with the Quanza
185
00:12:20,511 --> 00:12:22,154
to right that wrong.
186
00:12:22,179 --> 00:12:26,016
We've exhausted every other
avenue, Mr. President.
187
00:12:26,851 --> 00:12:29,353
- The ship is due here any day.
- Yes.
188
00:12:33,524 --> 00:12:36,235
Thank you for bringing those to me.
189
00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:39,029
A horrific plight indeed.
190
00:12:39,864 --> 00:12:42,717
Yet still, I am afraid
I cannot help you.
191
00:12:42,742 --> 00:12:45,302
Franklin, we cannot turn a blind eye
192
00:12:45,327 --> 00:12:47,246
to this atrocity again.
193
00:12:48,372 --> 00:12:51,183
The people elected you to office to act.
194
00:12:51,208 --> 00:12:53,974
The American people
have chosen not to act
195
00:12:53,999 --> 00:12:55,450
in this European conflict.
196
00:12:55,475 --> 00:12:57,060
Therefore I cannot act.
197
00:12:58,382 --> 00:13:01,594
Mrs. Hemingway, again, I am very sorry.
198
00:13:02,420 --> 00:13:03,904
I wish I could do more,
199
00:13:03,929 --> 00:13:06,515
but right now my hands are tied.
200
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,018
Anna!
201
00:13:09,043 --> 00:13:10,578
Yes?
202
00:13:10,603 --> 00:13:12,646
Tell my two o'clock that I am ready.
203
00:13:13,272 --> 00:13:15,316
Will you wait for me outside,
please, Martha?
204
00:13:15,539 --> 00:13:17,501
Mrs. Hemingway, I am very sorry.
205
00:13:17,526 --> 00:13:20,070
- Good day, Mr. President.
- Good day.
206
00:13:24,199 --> 00:13:27,094
I think you are making
a mistake, Franklin.
207
00:13:27,119 --> 00:13:29,928
Why is it the people that are
supposed to be the closest to me
208
00:13:29,953 --> 00:13:32,998
cannot understand that
I cannot simply wave my hand
209
00:13:33,023 --> 00:13:34,319
and make things happen?
210
00:13:34,344 --> 00:13:36,694
Well, you certainly can't make
things happen
211
00:13:36,719 --> 00:13:38,756
if you insist on sitting on them
212
00:13:38,781 --> 00:13:40,651
while the rest of the world
is falling apart.
213
00:13:40,676 --> 00:13:43,277
Eleanor, stop! Stop right there.
214
00:13:43,302 --> 00:13:46,280
You need to stop thinking about
me like some man without a soul.
215
00:13:46,305 --> 00:13:49,575
I can be emotional and practical
all at the same time.
216
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,298
You cannot insulate yourself
217
00:13:51,323 --> 00:13:54,201
against people's suffering, Franklin.
218
00:13:54,226 --> 00:13:55,565
- Mother.
- Anna.
219
00:13:55,590 --> 00:13:58,125
- We must move the day along.
- Mrs. R,
220
00:13:58,150 --> 00:14:00,544
your radio broadcast is in 14 minutes.
221
00:14:00,569 --> 00:14:03,614
Thank you, Tommy. Franklin.
222
00:14:08,661 --> 00:14:10,871
Anna, please close the door behind you.
223
00:14:13,082 --> 00:14:15,250
What did the papers say
about the photographs?
224
00:14:15,992 --> 00:14:19,271
Hearst won't print them.
Propaganda through omission.
225
00:14:19,296 --> 00:14:21,774
And Sulzberger's afraid
they will incite something.
226
00:14:21,799 --> 00:14:23,484
What? Empathy? Action?
227
00:14:23,509 --> 00:14:25,986
Panic, paranoia, anti-Semitism.
228
00:14:26,011 --> 00:14:27,878
Not all fascists live in Europe.
229
00:14:27,903 --> 00:14:29,739
Yes. Tommy,
230
00:14:30,516 --> 00:14:33,477
who here grants the power to have visas?
231
00:14:33,846 --> 00:14:35,621
I believe that is Patrick Malin
232
00:14:35,646 --> 00:14:37,545
with the political refugees' committee.
233
00:14:37,570 --> 00:14:38,613
Let me make a call.
234
00:14:39,358 --> 00:14:41,126
Uh, Mrs. R, we really have to go.
235
00:14:41,151 --> 00:14:42,628
- Yes.
- Thank you.
236
00:14:42,653 --> 00:14:45,364
Well, don't lose heart, Martha.
237
00:14:45,728 --> 00:14:47,881
I will think of something.
238
00:14:48,403 --> 00:14:50,897
"It may seem to you
239
00:14:50,995 --> 00:14:54,032
that a racial or religious prejudice
240
00:14:54,057 --> 00:14:56,299
that does not touch you
241
00:14:56,324 --> 00:15:00,620
is something about which
you need not concern yourself.
242
00:15:01,130 --> 00:15:02,991
But unfortunately,
243
00:15:03,016 --> 00:15:06,733
one prejudice engenders another,
244
00:15:06,844 --> 00:15:09,342
and people soon find themselves
245
00:15:09,367 --> 00:15:12,579
prey to fears of all kinds.
246
00:15:13,350 --> 00:15:17,920
We must do all we can
to prevent the rise
247
00:15:17,945 --> 00:15:21,667
"of racial or religious hatred
in this country."
248
00:15:21,692 --> 00:15:23,926
Here at home,
outrage over the fatal shooting
249
00:15:23,951 --> 00:15:25,409
of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin
250
00:15:25,434 --> 00:15:27,214
is spreading now around the country.
251
00:15:27,239 --> 00:15:29,383
On Wednesday,
marchers took to the streets
252
00:15:29,408 --> 00:15:31,176
in New York City and in Miami.
253
00:15:31,201 --> 00:15:33,512
Protesters are calling
for the arrest of the shooter.
254
00:15:33,537 --> 00:15:37,182
Cleveland police this weekend
shot a 12-year-old boy
255
00:15:37,207 --> 00:15:40,389
who was seen waving a gun
at a local playground.
256
00:15:40,502 --> 00:15:43,230
The boy later died.
The gun turned out to be fake.
257
00:15:43,255 --> 00:15:45,315
Attorney General Eric Holder said today
258
00:15:45,340 --> 00:15:47,568
the Justice Department
is monitoring the case
259
00:15:47,593 --> 00:15:50,738
of a New York City man who died
in police custody last month.
260
00:15:50,763 --> 00:15:52,431
The dramatic cell phone video
261
00:15:52,456 --> 00:15:54,408
shows 50-year-old Walter Scott
262
00:15:54,433 --> 00:15:56,702
running away
from Officer Michael Slager.
263
00:15:56,727 --> 00:16:00,222
The 33-year-old officer fires
eight shots at Scott's back.
264
00:16:00,247 --> 00:16:01,506
Thought that my brother
265
00:16:01,531 --> 00:16:04,251
was gunned down like an animal.
266
00:16:04,276 --> 00:16:07,421
It was just unbelievable to
me to see that.
267
00:16:07,446 --> 00:16:10,090
The amateur video
paints a different picture
268
00:16:10,115 --> 00:16:12,092
than the one
that first emerged Saturday.
269
00:16:12,117 --> 00:16:14,762
Authorities originally said
Scott tried to run
270
00:16:14,787 --> 00:16:17,389
and the two men struggled
over the officer's Taser.
271
00:16:17,414 --> 00:16:20,059
Slager said he feared for his life.
272
00:16:20,084 --> 00:16:22,269
An hour after city officials
saw the footage,
273
00:16:22,294 --> 00:16:24,396
North Charleston mayor Keith Summey
274
00:16:24,421 --> 00:16:27,066
announced that Slager
would be charged with murder.
275
00:16:27,091 --> 00:16:30,094
When you're wrong, you're wrong.
276
00:16:31,021 --> 00:16:33,389
And if you make a bad decision,
277
00:16:33,430 --> 00:16:35,662
don't care if you're behind the shield,
278
00:16:35,687 --> 00:16:37,936
you have to live by that decision.
279
00:16:38,102 --> 00:16:40,662
Late Tuesday, Slager was denied bail...
280
00:16:40,687 --> 00:16:42,576
Malia, you finished your homework?
281
00:16:42,815 --> 00:16:45,150
No.
282
00:16:47,152 --> 00:16:50,850
Malia, you don't have to watch
every single one of these videos.
283
00:16:50,875 --> 00:16:52,697
Mom, they shot him in the back
284
00:16:52,722 --> 00:16:54,997
and left him in the streets
for four hours,
285
00:16:55,022 --> 00:16:56,866
like his life just didn't matter.
286
00:16:56,891 --> 00:16:58,931
I mean, how many more?
287
00:16:58,956 --> 00:17:01,747
Trayvon, Tamir, Eric.
288
00:17:01,772 --> 00:17:04,269
I-I just don't understand
why this keeps happening.
289
00:17:04,294 --> 00:17:06,480
I know. Malia, I know.
290
00:17:06,505 --> 00:17:09,069
Trust me, I understand, honey. I...
291
00:17:09,094 --> 00:17:12,431
Mom... Look at us.
292
00:17:13,345 --> 00:17:16,140
I mean, look at this house
that we live in.
293
00:17:17,432 --> 00:17:21,854
If we can't make a difference, who can?
294
00:17:33,405 --> 00:17:35,592
Aw, thank you!
295
00:17:35,617 --> 00:17:38,345
And we appreciate you all
coming down to see our new home.
296
00:17:38,370 --> 00:17:41,265
- Oh, of course.
- Been real nice here so far.
297
00:17:41,290 --> 00:17:43,060
Cocktails with the neighbors
and everything.
298
00:17:43,085 --> 00:17:44,810
- Oh!
- Yeah.
299
00:17:44,835 --> 00:17:47,646
Whoa, the real life George and Weezy.
300
00:17:47,671 --> 00:17:49,772
Y'all really did move on
301
00:17:49,797 --> 00:17:52,317
up out of the neighborhood
right into one of theirs.
302
00:17:52,342 --> 00:17:54,486
Except the Jeffersons don't have...
303
00:17:57,182 --> 00:18:00,728
Daddy! Daddy, look.
304
00:18:03,729 --> 00:18:06,356
Well, ain't that a bitch.
305
00:18:09,186 --> 00:18:11,837
Come on. Get in the car.
It's time for us to go.
306
00:18:11,862 --> 00:18:13,100
I am so sorry.
307
00:18:13,125 --> 00:18:15,215
I think you could probably
get that buffed out.
308
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,784
- That's some bullshit.
- Craig.
309
00:18:17,809 --> 00:18:19,178
But...
310
00:18:19,203 --> 00:18:21,663
It's fine. It'll come out.
311
00:18:21,877 --> 00:18:23,235
You know, just reminds me
312
00:18:23,260 --> 00:18:25,851
of how gorgeous this beauty really is.
313
00:18:25,876 --> 00:18:28,086
You know, sometimes when folks see
314
00:18:28,111 --> 00:18:29,589
something they hate
looking so beautiful,
315
00:18:29,614 --> 00:18:31,537
first thing they wanna do
is scuff it up.
316
00:18:31,562 --> 00:18:33,655
But Robinsons,
we just buff that right out.
317
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,016
- Get in the car.
- You heard your daddy. Let's go.
318
00:18:38,366 --> 00:18:42,392
Well, have a nice easy drive.
319
00:18:43,936 --> 00:18:46,688
You guys have a safe trip home now.
320
00:19:09,101 --> 00:19:10,311
Mm.
321
00:19:12,965 --> 00:19:14,299
Hello.
322
00:19:15,300 --> 00:19:17,761
I thought you were coming Thursday.
323
00:19:19,054 --> 00:19:20,781
It is Thursday.
324
00:19:20,806 --> 00:19:23,225
Oh, dear.
325
00:19:23,809 --> 00:19:26,186
How long do I have you for this time?
326
00:19:26,770 --> 00:19:30,399
Mm, about seven hours.
327
00:19:30,424 --> 00:19:32,135
Oh, hmm.
328
00:19:37,489 --> 00:19:40,316
I'm sorry I won't be with you later on.
329
00:19:40,341 --> 00:19:42,803
Sara's having one of
her dinner parties tonight
330
00:19:42,828 --> 00:19:44,972
and I'll be forced to trade small talk
331
00:19:44,997 --> 00:19:47,474
with the British ambassador and his wife
332
00:19:47,499 --> 00:19:51,044
over a plate of aspic or some such.
333
00:19:51,198 --> 00:19:53,918
What is aspic anyway?
334
00:19:53,943 --> 00:19:56,035
Aspic is
335
00:19:56,531 --> 00:20:00,744
a lukewarm, gelatinous, punitive insult.
336
00:20:00,769 --> 00:20:04,783
Oh, well. Mm.
337
00:20:04,808 --> 00:20:07,661
- Delicious.
- Very. That was very good.
338
00:20:07,686 --> 00:20:11,148
Clearly you should have been a...
A restaurant critic.
339
00:20:14,443 --> 00:20:16,945
If I could just do this one thing, Hick.
340
00:20:18,363 --> 00:20:22,743
If I could just help
these 86 souls on the Quanza,
341
00:20:23,300 --> 00:20:24,969
then that would be something.
342
00:20:26,673 --> 00:20:29,718
I am sure you'll think of a way.
343
00:20:31,376 --> 00:20:33,003
You always do.
344
00:20:36,048 --> 00:20:37,858
The White House has become
345
00:20:37,883 --> 00:20:40,027
something of a family affair these days.
346
00:20:40,052 --> 00:20:41,528
The Roosevelts may well be
347
00:20:41,553 --> 00:20:43,488
America's answer to our royal family.
348
00:20:43,513 --> 00:20:44,973
- Oh.
- Absolutely not.
349
00:20:44,998 --> 00:20:46,949
Well, that's why we thought
it might be nice
350
00:20:46,974 --> 00:20:49,953
to have you to our private
dining room, Mr. Ambassador.
351
00:20:49,978 --> 00:20:51,997
Please consider yourself
part of the family.
352
00:20:52,022 --> 00:20:53,730
It's our honor to have you as our guest.
353
00:20:53,755 --> 00:20:55,425
- Yes.
- Ladies and gentlemen,
354
00:20:55,450 --> 00:20:57,953
Mr. Malin, Ambassador.
355
00:20:58,375 --> 00:21:00,047
I believe that dinner is served.
356
00:21:00,072 --> 00:21:02,549
If you would please join us inside.
357
00:21:03,909 --> 00:21:05,552
- After you.
- Thank you so much.
358
00:21:09,886 --> 00:21:11,053
Oh, hello.
359
00:21:11,078 --> 00:21:13,685
Mr. Ambassador, you are over here.
360
00:21:13,710 --> 00:21:16,505
- Thank you so much.
- Hello.
361
00:21:17,381 --> 00:21:19,716
It's so nice to
see you. Thank you for coming.
362
00:21:20,175 --> 00:21:21,760
Mr. Malin, you're next.
363
00:21:23,032 --> 00:21:24,867
Everybody, please sit.
364
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,368
Oh, look. Ooh, a photo exhibit.
365
00:21:29,393 --> 00:21:31,603
- Oh.
- How modern.
366
00:21:32,223 --> 00:21:34,581
- My, May, what have you got?
- Oh, Lord.
367
00:21:34,606 --> 00:21:37,501
Quite disturbing images.
What ones do you have here?
368
00:21:37,526 --> 00:21:38,752
Mine are sort of...
369
00:21:38,777 --> 00:21:40,612
Honored guests,
370
00:21:41,446 --> 00:21:45,059
Ambassador Lindsay, Mr. Malin,
371
00:21:45,450 --> 00:21:47,244
I would like to introduce you
372
00:21:47,510 --> 00:21:49,929
to two personal friends of mine,
373
00:21:50,872 --> 00:21:55,250
Martha Gellhorn Hemingway,
a brilliant journalist
374
00:21:55,275 --> 00:21:59,071
who has provided
these photographs this evening,
375
00:21:59,965 --> 00:22:02,884
and Mr. Jacob Morewitz,
376
00:22:03,048 --> 00:22:05,612
a wonderful young lawyer
377
00:22:05,637 --> 00:22:09,074
who is representing some of the refugees
378
00:22:09,099 --> 00:22:12,602
that you will see in these photographs.
379
00:22:13,645 --> 00:22:16,457
Some of these individuals are trapped
380
00:22:16,565 --> 00:22:20,527
at this very moment on the SS Quanza,
381
00:22:21,179 --> 00:22:25,590
having been denied the right
to safely disembark.
382
00:22:25,615 --> 00:22:28,427
We feel very fortunate
to be here tonight
383
00:22:28,452 --> 00:22:30,324
at this vital crossroads.
384
00:22:30,349 --> 00:22:32,699
Had I known we'd be discussing
politics this evening,
385
00:22:32,732 --> 00:22:35,976
- I'd have paced myself.
- And I wish I had not.
386
00:22:39,462 --> 00:22:42,607
Earlier today, I was able
to win an injunction in court
387
00:22:42,632 --> 00:22:44,776
for the ship to remain
in American waters,
388
00:22:44,801 --> 00:22:46,319
but only for six more days.
389
00:22:46,344 --> 00:22:49,781
Six days before these human beings
390
00:22:49,806 --> 00:22:51,950
will be forced back to Europe,
391
00:22:51,975 --> 00:22:54,176
where they will have a terrible fate,
392
00:22:54,201 --> 00:22:57,939
not unlike some of the other
images you see before you.
393
00:22:58,382 --> 00:23:01,460
And that is where Mr. Malin comes in...
394
00:23:01,485 --> 00:23:04,629
Eleanor, you are
making our guests uncomfortable.
395
00:23:04,654 --> 00:23:07,674
Uncomfortable dinner parties
are a British tradition.
396
00:23:07,699 --> 00:23:11,411
You can act, Mr. Malin,
397
00:23:11,870 --> 00:23:13,231
even if my husband
398
00:23:13,256 --> 00:23:15,502
and the other men
in this White House will not.
399
00:23:15,527 --> 00:23:17,976
- Eleanor, enough!
- Mr. President,
400
00:23:18,001 --> 00:23:20,020
there must be something we can do.
401
00:23:20,045 --> 00:23:23,048
I'm afraid there isn't.
My hands are tied.
402
00:23:23,585 --> 00:23:26,760
Larger issues are at play
and Eleanor knows this.
403
00:23:27,500 --> 00:23:30,822
Please, remove these photographs
from the table immediately.
404
00:23:30,847 --> 00:23:34,701
These people are suffering.
They are dying.
405
00:23:34,726 --> 00:23:38,163
If they were your children,
your parents,
406
00:23:38,188 --> 00:23:41,708
uh, your brothers and sisters,
just think, what would you do?
407
00:23:41,733 --> 00:23:44,569
Ambassador Lindsay, am I to understand
408
00:23:45,158 --> 00:23:48,340
that Winchester City is
your football club of choice?
409
00:23:48,365 --> 00:23:50,175
Unfortunately, it is.
410
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,178
Unfortunately indeed.
I've seen them play.
411
00:23:54,913 --> 00:23:56,465
There we have it.
412
00:23:56,490 --> 00:23:59,518
Just denying the reality
of the world around us
413
00:23:59,543 --> 00:24:01,561
and enjoying the duck confit.
414
00:24:01,586 --> 00:24:03,838
Well, I adore duck confit.
415
00:24:03,863 --> 00:24:05,348
As do I.
416
00:24:05,373 --> 00:24:07,734
Our chef at home makes a quail confit.
417
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:11,863
He also makes the most
delightful deviled quail eggs.
418
00:24:11,888 --> 00:24:13,371
Little teeny tiny things.
419
00:24:13,396 --> 00:24:15,606
How can we be so utterly complacent?
420
00:24:20,576 --> 00:24:24,042
Eleanor, there is
no complacency in this room,
421
00:24:24,067 --> 00:24:25,710
only decency.
422
00:24:25,735 --> 00:24:29,756
And I do wish you would
exercise some restraint
423
00:24:29,781 --> 00:24:32,613
so our friends can enjoy their dinner.
424
00:24:32,638 --> 00:24:35,220
Ah, wonderful. Endive is here.
425
00:24:35,245 --> 00:24:38,098
- I hope you all like endive.
- Thank God.
426
00:24:38,123 --> 00:24:40,934
Mrs. Roosevelt, is Bendel's in New York
427
00:24:40,959 --> 00:24:43,598
still the place to go
for the latest fashions?
428
00:24:43,623 --> 00:24:46,273
I did hear that they have
some lovely gowns this year.
429
00:24:46,298 --> 00:24:49,609
Mrs. Roosevelt, would you join us
for a day of shopping in New York?
430
00:24:49,634 --> 00:24:51,278
We can take the train.
431
00:24:51,303 --> 00:24:53,905
Well, I'll certainly
consult my schedule.
432
00:25:00,924 --> 00:25:02,134
Anna?
433
00:25:03,982 --> 00:25:06,109
Close the door, please.
434
00:25:10,822 --> 00:25:14,284
I asked you to arrange an
appointment with Mrs. Rutherfurd.
435
00:25:15,034 --> 00:25:16,660
I do not see it in my calendar.
436
00:25:16,685 --> 00:25:17,895
Um...
437
00:25:23,668 --> 00:25:24,794
About Lucy...
438
00:25:28,131 --> 00:25:30,008
I...
439
00:25:31,134 --> 00:25:32,986
After all this time, are you sure...
440
00:25:33,011 --> 00:25:35,930
Of course, I'm sure. That's why
I asked you to arrange it.
441
00:25:36,087 --> 00:25:37,463
Now, please get it done.
442
00:25:39,270 --> 00:25:40,605
Now.
443
00:25:45,276 --> 00:25:48,654
Anna, I'm sorry.
444
00:25:49,319 --> 00:25:53,156
I-I don't expect you to understand. I...
445
00:25:55,325 --> 00:25:56,968
And I know you think
446
00:25:56,993 --> 00:25:59,329
I'm putting you in
a terrible position, but...
447
00:26:02,178 --> 00:26:05,014
I... I need her.
448
00:26:08,046 --> 00:26:11,675
I need something too.
449
00:26:14,135 --> 00:26:15,387
I see.
450
00:26:19,638 --> 00:26:21,182
Thank you.
451
00:26:33,863 --> 00:26:36,866
Yes, the Rutherfurd residence
of New York City.
452
00:26:38,475 --> 00:26:39,642
I'll hold.
453
00:26:48,420 --> 00:26:50,021
This is Lucy Rutherfurd.
454
00:26:50,046 --> 00:26:53,258
Hello, Mrs. Rutherfurd.
This is Anna Boettiger.
455
00:26:54,641 --> 00:26:57,902
Anna Roosevelt. How are you?
456
00:26:57,929 --> 00:27:00,974
I am very well. Thank you for asking.
457
00:27:00,999 --> 00:27:02,167
And yourself?
458
00:27:03,618 --> 00:27:05,077
Very well indeed.
459
00:27:06,271 --> 00:27:08,581
Uh, the president has instructed me
460
00:27:08,606 --> 00:27:11,234
to arrange a meeting with you.
461
00:27:11,776 --> 00:27:14,779
I'd be delighted.
462
00:27:17,044 --> 00:27:19,046
Let me tell you when he's available.
463
00:27:25,957 --> 00:27:27,417
Oh.
464
00:27:33,555 --> 00:27:35,599
Psst, psst, psst. Psst, psst.
465
00:27:36,072 --> 00:27:40,743
There are just not enough hours
in the day.
466
00:27:43,241 --> 00:27:45,243
You do so much.
467
00:27:45,268 --> 00:27:49,689
And yet somehow, it always feels
like a drop in the bucket.
468
00:27:50,273 --> 00:27:52,400
Let's just enjoy each other...
469
00:27:53,485 --> 00:27:56,321
while I'm here. Rest.
470
00:27:57,447 --> 00:27:59,866
It's hard, Hick...
471
00:28:01,467 --> 00:28:04,304
...when thousands are being forced
472
00:28:04,329 --> 00:28:06,706
from their homes every day.
473
00:28:07,290 --> 00:28:10,627
Can you allow yourself just a...
474
00:28:10,986 --> 00:28:13,062
Just a moment of satisfaction?
475
00:28:13,087 --> 00:28:17,509
Do you know
what a concentration camp is?
476
00:28:19,302 --> 00:28:20,887
- Do you?
- Yes, I do.
477
00:28:21,513 --> 00:28:26,223
And yet you're fine
to while away the hours
478
00:28:26,248 --> 00:28:29,293
drinking bourbon in the afternoon.
479
00:28:32,273 --> 00:28:33,416
Where are you going?
480
00:28:33,441 --> 00:28:35,068
To find somewhere else to while.
481
00:28:35,443 --> 00:28:37,862
Don't leave, Hick.
482
00:28:40,490 --> 00:28:42,133
I'm really beginning to understand
483
00:28:42,158 --> 00:28:44,369
how your husband
and your children must feel.
484
00:28:44,994 --> 00:28:49,874
Constantly judged,
scrutinized, abandoned.
485
00:28:50,834 --> 00:28:54,504
That is an unkind thing to say.
486
00:29:03,012 --> 00:29:04,472
I'm sorry.
487
00:29:12,564 --> 00:29:14,357
Um, Mr. Malin for you.
488
00:29:14,876 --> 00:29:17,126
Oh, yes. Mr. Malin.
489
00:29:17,151 --> 00:29:20,046
Madam First Lady, I wanted
to thank you in person
490
00:29:20,071 --> 00:29:22,490
for inviting me to that
rather uncomfortable dinner.
491
00:29:22,515 --> 00:29:23,855
Well...
492
00:29:24,576 --> 00:29:27,137
But comfort isn't appropriate
when discussing great suffering.
493
00:29:27,162 --> 00:29:30,999
No, it's so true. Would you have a seat?
494
00:29:36,319 --> 00:29:38,196
I've brought you the visas you need
495
00:29:38,631 --> 00:29:40,984
for everyone onboard the Quanza.
496
00:29:41,009 --> 00:29:42,694
- Oh, my!
- Human rights are indeed
497
00:29:42,719 --> 00:29:44,512
not reserved for Americans.
498
00:29:44,537 --> 00:29:46,137
Thank you.
499
00:29:47,056 --> 00:29:49,726
I hope you know how brave this act is.
500
00:29:49,751 --> 00:29:51,027
It's...
501
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,784
- Yes, I hope it was worth it.
- "Worth it"?
502
00:29:55,899 --> 00:29:59,252
There were ships coming in all the time
503
00:29:59,277 --> 00:30:02,881
and we've only
just gotten started here, so...
504
00:30:02,906 --> 00:30:04,616
Unfortunately not.
505
00:30:05,241 --> 00:30:07,493
I have now been stripped
of my visa oversight.
506
00:30:08,578 --> 00:30:11,055
- Oh, I am very sorry.
- All requests now
507
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,099
have to go through
Assistant Secretary Long.
508
00:30:13,124 --> 00:30:15,364
Please, if there's
anything that we can do.
509
00:30:15,389 --> 00:30:17,224
I'm afraid that won't be possible.
510
00:30:17,647 --> 00:30:20,607
Mr. Long is so infuriated
by what we did,
511
00:30:20,632 --> 00:30:23,234
he has vowed never to allow
a single refugee
512
00:30:23,259 --> 00:30:24,969
onto our shores again.
513
00:30:25,470 --> 00:30:27,305
Does my husband know of this?
514
00:30:27,639 --> 00:30:29,390
Yes, I'm afraid so.
515
00:30:33,937 --> 00:30:37,440
Well, thank you very much, Mr. Malin.
516
00:30:38,942 --> 00:30:40,109
Thank you.
517
00:30:54,666 --> 00:30:58,086
Missy, can you put me through
to Franklin, please?
518
00:30:58,628 --> 00:31:00,421
Yes, I'll hold.
519
00:31:23,889 --> 00:31:25,964
Pa is on his way.
520
00:31:25,989 --> 00:31:28,144
He'll be here in a couple of hours.
521
00:31:28,169 --> 00:31:31,172
Oh, good. Thank you, dear.
522
00:31:32,662 --> 00:31:33,997
And Eleanor?
523
00:31:35,331 --> 00:31:36,708
I'm here.
524
00:31:39,335 --> 00:31:40,670
Oh.
525
00:31:57,395 --> 00:31:58,730
You know...
526
00:32:01,187 --> 00:32:03,314
I never thought you were
527
00:32:04,889 --> 00:32:08,643
the right wife for my Franklin.
528
00:32:09,250 --> 00:32:13,296
I always pictured someone less...
529
00:32:14,034 --> 00:32:16,870
...complicated.
530
00:32:19,208 --> 00:32:24,074
You've always done what you believed in.
531
00:32:27,550 --> 00:32:30,678
Nobody could fault you for that.
532
00:32:36,768 --> 00:32:41,522
I'm grateful that Franklin found you.
533
00:32:43,133 --> 00:32:44,468
Huh.
534
00:32:45,724 --> 00:32:50,020
An extraordinary man deserves...
535
00:32:51,908 --> 00:32:54,452
an extraordinary woman.
536
00:32:59,951 --> 00:33:01,453
Oh, Mother.
537
00:33:05,755 --> 00:33:09,133
You're quite extraordinary yourself.
538
00:33:09,801 --> 00:33:11,135
Hmm.
539
00:33:15,431 --> 00:33:16,724
Thank you.
540
00:33:26,442 --> 00:33:27,777
Ah.
541
00:33:40,123 --> 00:33:41,808
Deep inside Alabama
542
00:33:41,833 --> 00:33:44,980
is a famous school
called the Tuskegee Institute.
543
00:33:45,005 --> 00:33:48,147
It has graduated
many thousands into agriculture,
544
00:33:48,172 --> 00:33:50,149
into science, into industry.
545
00:33:50,174 --> 00:33:52,652
This school was the first of its kind,
546
00:33:52,677 --> 00:33:55,238
and its founder, Booker T. Washington,
547
00:33:55,263 --> 00:33:59,283
was a pioneer who broke open
a road for others to follow.
548
00:33:59,308 --> 00:34:02,059
He lifted the veil of ignorance
from his people,
549
00:34:02,084 --> 00:34:06,464
and pointed the way to progress
through education and industry.
550
00:34:13,036 --> 00:34:14,371
Dang it.
551
00:34:35,386 --> 00:34:38,681
Excuse me. It's Michelle Robinson.
552
00:34:41,851 --> 00:34:43,285
Oh, hi, Michelle.
553
00:34:43,310 --> 00:34:46,146
Uh, we were supposed to meet
27 minutes ago.
554
00:34:47,231 --> 00:34:49,542
Oh, my goodness. I'm so sorry.
555
00:34:49,567 --> 00:34:51,861
Our meeting must've
just fallen through the cracks.
556
00:34:51,886 --> 00:34:53,546
Please, come in.
557
00:34:53,571 --> 00:34:56,549
I've just been so busy
filling out this report.
558
00:34:56,574 --> 00:34:59,218
I'm so sorry about that.
Here, please have a seat.
559
00:34:59,243 --> 00:35:01,245
I'll be with you in just one second.
560
00:35:17,253 --> 00:35:21,365
Okay. Oh. What am I looking at here?
561
00:35:21,390 --> 00:35:24,493
Uh, my report cards, test scores,
562
00:35:24,518 --> 00:35:27,413
a few news clippings
about my accomplishments.
563
00:35:27,438 --> 00:35:30,249
Um, as you can see,
I've excelled in academics,
564
00:35:30,274 --> 00:35:33,402
in extracurricular activities
and community service.
565
00:35:34,612 --> 00:35:36,072
Oh, I almost forgot.
566
00:35:36,097 --> 00:35:38,758
I'm also a member
567
00:35:38,783 --> 00:35:41,077
of the National Honor Society.
568
00:35:41,619 --> 00:35:45,665
Wow. Uh... Thi...
569
00:35:46,123 --> 00:35:49,435
I love this spirit.
570
00:35:51,295 --> 00:35:55,925
I have... Um, yes.
571
00:35:57,121 --> 00:35:59,862
I have some info
on some local universities
572
00:35:59,887 --> 00:36:03,616
that I think would be
a great fit for you.
573
00:36:03,641 --> 00:36:07,436
Oh. Uh, that's not necessary.
I already know where I'm going.
574
00:36:07,942 --> 00:36:11,415
Princeton,
and then Harvard Law after that.
575
00:36:13,153 --> 00:36:15,406
Well, that's certainly
a very ambitious goal.
576
00:36:15,431 --> 00:36:17,755
Yeah.
577
00:36:17,780 --> 00:36:20,591
But I think it would be a good idea
578
00:36:20,616 --> 00:36:23,286
to widen your search just a bit.
579
00:36:23,645 --> 00:36:25,972
Uh, but that's where I wanna go.
580
00:36:25,997 --> 00:36:27,807
I mean, why should I waste my time
581
00:36:27,832 --> 00:36:30,309
applying to schools
I'm not interested in?
582
00:36:30,334 --> 00:36:32,812
Well, your accomplishments
at a school like Whitney
583
00:36:32,837 --> 00:36:35,965
are certainly... very impressive.
584
00:36:36,465 --> 00:36:38,467
I, um...
585
00:36:38,900 --> 00:36:41,152
I'm not...
586
00:36:42,013 --> 00:36:46,017
I'm not sure that
you're quite Princeton material.
587
00:36:52,315 --> 00:36:54,834
- Um...
- Look, I know
588
00:36:54,859 --> 00:36:57,795
your brother, Craig, is there
now on a basketball scholarship.
589
00:36:57,820 --> 00:37:00,765
But I don't see any
involvement in athletics and...
590
00:37:00,790 --> 00:37:03,509
Princeton doesn't give out
athletic scholarships.
591
00:37:03,534 --> 00:37:06,345
How do you not know that?
You're a guidance counselor.
592
00:37:06,370 --> 00:37:09,707
Okay. There's no need to
have an attitude, miss.
593
00:37:11,876 --> 00:37:14,086
Remember, I'm here to help you out.
594
00:37:15,046 --> 00:37:17,356
And my advice is that you consider
595
00:37:17,381 --> 00:37:20,509
whether your school of choice
is the right...
596
00:37:21,095 --> 00:37:23,973
culture fit. Hmm?
597
00:37:27,558 --> 00:37:30,811
Think about it.
These are wonderful schools.
598
00:37:32,461 --> 00:37:33,754
I'm so sorry.
599
00:37:34,224 --> 00:37:36,375
I've got to get back,
600
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,903
but thank you so much
for coming in, Michelle.
601
00:37:55,544 --> 00:37:58,731
I'm sorry. Uh, what exactly about me
602
00:37:58,756 --> 00:38:02,026
isn't the right culture fit
for Princeton? Hmm?
603
00:38:02,051 --> 00:38:06,430
Is it the way that I dress
or talk or my hair
604
00:38:07,098 --> 00:38:09,433
or something else
you're just not saying?
605
00:38:10,257 --> 00:38:12,593
Please, be specific.
606
00:38:16,524 --> 00:38:19,568
I just don't want
you to be disappointed.
607
00:38:37,586 --> 00:38:40,398
- Hey, Mich.
- Santita! Hey, girl.
608
00:38:40,423 --> 00:38:43,401
- How you doing?
- I'm good. Can't complain.
609
00:38:43,426 --> 00:38:45,358
Or I can, but I'm not going to.
610
00:38:45,383 --> 00:38:46,843
I hear that.
611
00:38:47,054 --> 00:38:49,615
- Yeah, what's up?
- I saw your email
612
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,909
about the commencement speech
at Tuskegee.
613
00:38:51,934 --> 00:38:54,453
Yeah, I already told them
that you were probably too busy.
614
00:38:54,478 --> 00:38:56,856
I am too busy, but...
615
00:38:56,881 --> 00:38:58,624
...I wanna do it.
616
00:38:58,649 --> 00:38:59,750
For real?
617
00:38:59,775 --> 00:39:01,877
I will make the time.
618
00:39:01,902 --> 00:39:04,088
Oh, they're gonna be over the moon.
619
00:39:04,113 --> 00:39:05,965
I'll get my team to get in touch.
620
00:39:05,990 --> 00:39:09,493
Oh, great. This is huge, Mich.
621
00:39:09,952 --> 00:39:11,120
Thank you.
622
00:39:11,208 --> 00:39:12,626
Bye, girl.
623
00:39:27,636 --> 00:39:31,348
You are in some hot water with Val.
624
00:39:31,373 --> 00:39:33,492
- Tuskegee?
- Uh-huh.
625
00:39:33,517 --> 00:39:35,619
You're not consulting
the West Wing any more?
626
00:39:35,644 --> 00:39:38,606
I know exactly how
that conversation would go.
627
00:39:39,815 --> 00:39:42,918
"The West Wing is concerned
that white people..."
628
00:39:42,943 --> 00:39:47,465
White voters might be scared
that a Black First Lady
629
00:39:47,490 --> 00:39:51,076
is talking to a Black audience
about race"?
630
00:39:51,702 --> 00:39:54,830
Yeah, that's about the sum of it.
631
00:39:55,206 --> 00:39:57,137
Yeah. So...
632
00:39:57,500 --> 00:40:00,836
So, I... I probably can't stop you.
633
00:40:00,861 --> 00:40:02,902
Damn right.
634
00:40:03,363 --> 00:40:07,276
Well, hey, I understand that
it's a Black college, right?
635
00:40:07,301 --> 00:40:10,654
But as you know, we're always
talking to a national audience.
636
00:40:10,679 --> 00:40:12,031
- Right?
- Mm-hmm.
637
00:40:12,056 --> 00:40:15,098
So, hit 'em with those
hard truths, sure.
638
00:40:15,123 --> 00:40:18,787
All right? But I think
it will be more effective
639
00:40:18,812 --> 00:40:24,068
if you can tie 'em to
our common goals as a nation.
640
00:40:25,929 --> 00:40:27,305
Just my two cents.
641
00:40:37,665 --> 00:40:39,850
I want those Black kids at Tuskegee
642
00:40:39,875 --> 00:40:43,420
to know that we feel their pain,
share their fears,
643
00:40:43,445 --> 00:40:45,856
and that their lives matter too.
644
00:40:45,881 --> 00:40:48,859
And I want our own children
to know how we feel.
645
00:40:48,884 --> 00:40:51,820
And I want those news channels
to listen and eat it,
646
00:40:51,845 --> 00:40:54,657
and to hell with their,
"This isn't the America I know."
647
00:40:54,682 --> 00:40:56,742
- Fuck holding back.
- So you just wanna play
648
00:40:56,767 --> 00:40:59,078
right into the hands of
the conservative media?
649
00:40:59,103 --> 00:41:00,829
Just give 'em what they want?
650
00:41:00,854 --> 00:41:03,249
Those murders happened
while we were here, Barack.
651
00:41:03,274 --> 00:41:05,943
I know that, Michelle.
652
00:41:07,236 --> 00:41:10,089
I am still a Black man in America.
653
00:41:10,114 --> 00:41:12,258
You don't think I wanna pop off
654
00:41:12,283 --> 00:41:15,953
every time I see another
unarmed Black kid get shot?
655
00:41:16,980 --> 00:41:19,598
You know I wanna be out there
on those streets,
656
00:41:19,623 --> 00:41:22,293
marching right along with those kids.
657
00:41:23,127 --> 00:41:26,689
But that's not our reality.
658
00:41:26,714 --> 00:41:28,799
- Because we're the First Family?
- Yeah.
659
00:41:29,633 --> 00:41:33,304
But, Barack, we're
the first Black First Family.
660
00:41:35,055 --> 00:41:39,768
And we've been called nigger
in every way possible.
661
00:41:41,307 --> 00:41:43,934
For once, let's be the niggers.
662
00:41:56,827 --> 00:41:58,162
Okay.
663
00:42:05,127 --> 00:42:06,979
Now, how many of them...
664
00:42:08,969 --> 00:42:11,233
Uh-oh, Craig. Mich just got home.
665
00:42:11,258 --> 00:42:13,677
Look like something got her
good and mad.
666
00:42:16,112 --> 00:42:18,072
I'm gonna see about your sister.
667
00:42:19,685 --> 00:42:21,619
Bye, Mom.
668
00:42:21,644 --> 00:42:23,496
All right, now that your mother's gone,
669
00:42:23,521 --> 00:42:27,625
tell me how's it going with the ladies?
670
00:42:27,650 --> 00:42:29,360
How much time you got?
671
00:42:31,862 --> 00:42:34,365
So, what happened?
672
00:42:36,033 --> 00:42:39,662
Counselor said I wasn't
"Princeton material."
673
00:42:40,691 --> 00:42:42,943
That's what she said.
674
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:44,857
What do you think?
675
00:42:47,211 --> 00:42:49,046
I don't know.
676
00:42:50,172 --> 00:42:51,799
What if she's right?
677
00:42:52,675 --> 00:42:54,301
Let me ask you a question.
678
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,764
Why did hearing that from your counselor
679
00:42:59,106 --> 00:43:01,035
make you so angry?
680
00:43:02,017 --> 00:43:05,037
Because why can't a Black kid
go to an Ivy League school
681
00:43:05,062 --> 00:43:06,689
without playing a sport?
682
00:43:06,994 --> 00:43:08,543
I mean, she's wrong.
683
00:43:09,358 --> 00:43:12,444
And there it is. She's dead wrong.
684
00:43:12,903 --> 00:43:14,296
And if there's two things
685
00:43:14,321 --> 00:43:18,534
I know about Michelle LaVaughn Robinson,
686
00:43:18,559 --> 00:43:20,844
she's sharp as a whip.
687
00:43:20,869 --> 00:43:25,207
And nobody is gonna tell her
what she's not gonna do.
688
00:43:25,833 --> 00:43:27,726
So I don't wanna hear any more of this
689
00:43:27,751 --> 00:43:29,853
"What if I'm not good enough?"
690
00:43:29,878 --> 00:43:31,880
Ma...
691
00:43:35,050 --> 00:43:36,760
You understand me?
692
00:43:41,223 --> 00:43:42,241
Yes, ma'am.
693
00:44:05,508 --> 00:44:07,266
I know many of you
694
00:44:07,291 --> 00:44:09,768
will be thinking of the many heroes
695
00:44:09,793 --> 00:44:12,296
that Tuskegee has produced.
696
00:44:13,255 --> 00:44:15,899
The airmen who faced bigotry
697
00:44:15,924 --> 00:44:19,470
even as they fought
for our country in World War II.
698
00:44:21,096 --> 00:44:25,142
Perhaps you feel pressure
to live up to that legacy.
699
00:44:26,393 --> 00:44:30,147
Pressure to meet
the expectations of others.
700
00:44:31,033 --> 00:44:32,653
I get it.
701
00:44:33,484 --> 00:44:37,488
And all that is gonna be
a heavy burden to carry.
702
00:44:38,097 --> 00:44:39,849
It can feel isolating.
703
00:44:40,423 --> 00:44:41,967
It can make you feel like
704
00:44:41,992 --> 00:44:44,369
your life somehow doesn't matter.
705
00:44:45,496 --> 00:44:48,207
And we've seen over the past few years,
706
00:44:48,624 --> 00:44:50,209
those feelings are real.
707
00:44:51,502 --> 00:44:54,813
They're rooted in decades
of structural challenges
708
00:44:54,838 --> 00:44:59,485
that have made too many folks
feel frustrated and invisible.
709
00:44:59,510 --> 00:45:03,013
As the first
African American First Lady,
710
00:45:03,565 --> 00:45:07,910
I was the focus of speculations
and conversations
711
00:45:07,935 --> 00:45:12,481
rooted in fears
and misperceptions of others.
712
00:45:13,953 --> 00:45:17,586
Was I too loud, or too angry,
713
00:45:17,611 --> 00:45:19,530
or too emasculating?
714
00:45:20,864 --> 00:45:23,642
My indignities are nothing compared to
715
00:45:23,667 --> 00:45:27,622
what many Black folks
deal with every single day.
716
00:45:27,647 --> 00:45:31,850
Police brutality
and severe racial injustice,
717
00:45:31,875 --> 00:45:35,043
decades of institutional inequality
718
00:45:35,068 --> 00:45:37,279
playing out in communities.
719
00:45:37,922 --> 00:45:41,217
Like you, I am pained
720
00:45:42,493 --> 00:45:45,871
and exhausted
by these heartbreaking videos.
721
00:45:46,768 --> 00:45:50,004
It is not enough to bear witness.
722
00:45:50,477 --> 00:45:53,730
This war on Black people must stop.
723
00:45:58,569 --> 00:46:00,571
She's really going for it.
724
00:46:01,045 --> 00:46:02,881
Yeah, she is.
725
00:46:02,906 --> 00:46:06,009
My daughters have taught me so much.
726
00:46:06,034 --> 00:46:09,054
And I am inspired by the strength
727
00:46:09,079 --> 00:46:11,223
and the fortitude of young people.
728
00:46:11,248 --> 00:46:13,709
You are our conscience.
729
00:46:14,251 --> 00:46:15,894
You hold us to account
730
00:46:15,919 --> 00:46:18,338
and you urge us to do better.
731
00:46:18,922 --> 00:46:23,427
And I want every one of you to know
732
00:46:24,592 --> 00:46:27,804
your dreams matter.
733
00:46:29,558 --> 00:46:32,436
Your hopes matter.
734
00:46:32,957 --> 00:46:35,751
Your future matters.
735
00:46:36,814 --> 00:46:39,209
You matter.
736
00:46:41,069 --> 00:46:42,529
Thank you.
737
00:46:46,074 --> 00:46:48,702
Thank you.
738
00:46:48,727 --> 00:46:50,387
Thank you.
739
00:46:50,412 --> 00:46:52,097
Sir, if I may say,
740
00:46:52,122 --> 00:46:54,625
you should be very proud of your wife.
741
00:46:59,254 --> 00:47:00,464
Sir.
742
00:47:01,548 --> 00:47:04,635
Thank you, Wilson. And yeah...
743
00:47:05,260 --> 00:47:06,470
Thank you.
744
00:47:08,221 --> 00:47:09,597
...I am.
745
00:47:27,491 --> 00:47:31,428
What do you think?
The, uh, Indian raw silk,
746
00:47:31,453 --> 00:47:34,665
or Kravet silk?
747
00:47:35,624 --> 00:47:37,626
Uh, the first one?
748
00:47:40,671 --> 00:47:43,607
Hmm. Though the Kravet
749
00:47:43,632 --> 00:47:46,443
does blend in nicely with
the evening light,
750
00:47:46,468 --> 00:47:49,543
don't you think? Oh, I forgot to ask.
751
00:47:49,628 --> 00:47:52,157
If... If it were up to you,
would you choose
752
00:47:52,182 --> 00:47:56,019
wrought iron fireplace tools or brass?
753
00:47:56,512 --> 00:47:58,313
What would the president like?
754
00:47:58,689 --> 00:48:00,457
I haven't the foggiest
755
00:48:00,482 --> 00:48:04,528
and since he's out of town
once again, I can't ask him.
756
00:48:07,155 --> 00:48:08,365
Brass?
757
00:48:09,491 --> 00:48:13,453
I think you're right. Thank you, Bruce!
758
00:48:13,881 --> 00:48:15,216
Ma'am.
759
00:48:21,485 --> 00:48:25,113
Thank you, dear. I missed you.
760
00:48:34,339 --> 00:48:36,466
- Cheers, darling.
- Cheers.
761
00:48:39,688 --> 00:48:40,973
Mm.
762
00:48:41,189 --> 00:48:44,209
Fresh lime
from our tree in the backyard.
763
00:48:44,234 --> 00:48:45,736
Isn't that something?
764
00:48:46,705 --> 00:48:48,123
Look at that.
765
00:48:50,699 --> 00:48:53,493
We really are retiring
in paradise, aren't we?
766
00:48:53,702 --> 00:48:55,495
Mm.
767
00:48:56,246 --> 00:48:57,801
House looks wonderful.
768
00:48:58,195 --> 00:49:01,020
Yes, well, I can't take all the credit.
769
00:49:01,209 --> 00:49:03,420
Agent Bruce has a pretty good eye.
770
00:49:07,737 --> 00:49:10,193
I've got a couple other
quick trips this week.
771
00:49:10,218 --> 00:49:12,237
I'm going to Detroit
for a speech at Stroh's,
772
00:49:12,262 --> 00:49:14,197
and then over to Casper, Wyoming,
773
00:49:14,222 --> 00:49:16,658
- for a golf barbecue event.
- When are you leaving?
774
00:49:16,683 --> 00:49:18,602
I told you, Betty. Tomorrow morning.
775
00:49:18,627 --> 00:49:20,587
I'll be back before you know it.
776
00:49:23,038 --> 00:49:24,666
Now, mother.
777
00:49:24,691 --> 00:49:27,652
Don't "mother" me, Jerry.
778
00:49:28,828 --> 00:49:33,801
Retirement isn't going
out of town every week.
779
00:50:10,112 --> 00:50:11,571
Good night, ma'am.
780
00:50:13,158 --> 00:50:14,618
Good night, John.
781
00:50:54,823 --> 00:50:57,200
Oh, for Chrissake.
782
00:51:30,872 --> 00:51:35,547
Well, hello there.
Hey, everybody, look who's here.
783
00:51:35,572 --> 00:51:39,509
It's the First Lady
right in my own backyard!
784
00:51:41,578 --> 00:51:44,247
Betty Ford.
785
00:51:44,748 --> 00:51:46,850
It's Barbara Knickerbocker.
786
00:51:46,875 --> 00:51:50,020
I mean, Firestone. Leonard's wife.
787
00:51:50,045 --> 00:51:51,730
Barbara, nice to see you.
788
00:51:51,755 --> 00:51:54,399
Oh, please call me Nicky.
Everybody else does.
789
00:51:54,424 --> 00:51:57,194
Oh, we were wondering
when we would run into you.
790
00:51:57,219 --> 00:51:59,237
I guess a party
finds everyone eventually.
791
00:51:59,262 --> 00:52:02,224
- Eventually.
- What are you drinking?
792
00:52:03,016 --> 00:52:06,828
Oh, uh, gin and tonic.
793
00:52:06,853 --> 00:52:08,236
Gin and tonic coming up.
794
00:52:08,261 --> 00:52:10,388
We have that.
795
00:52:23,576 --> 00:52:25,388
- Betty!
- To Betty!
796
00:52:25,413 --> 00:52:27,624
Cheers!
