[sighs]

[water running]

Oh, hey. Hey. Where you guys going?

We're just gonna head out, man.

I got some cereal
if you guys want to stay.

I think we're good. But thanks, man.

Thanks. Thanks for the party.

All right.

[door closes]

Sorry.

L-I'd say something, but, you know,
I'm kind of hungover.

[pills rattling]

Medicine cabinet.

Appreciate that.

Coffee?

I know a place.
It's not too far from here.

It's a bit of a walk,
but it's really good.

Cool. I-It's just over the hill in Noe.

Seriously, not too far.

[traffic passing]

[Micah] So -- So what do you do?

Like, what do you do?
What's your -- What's your occupation?

Where do I work, or what do I do?

- Both.
- [waiter] Americano.

Double macchiato.

Food will be out in just a minute, okay?

Appreciate that.

I don't have a job.

How do you pay rent?

Who says I pay rent?

No-Nobody. Nobody said you pay rent.

I was just --
I was just asking questions, um --

You don't have a job. That's cool.

I'm figuring it out.

Figuring it out.

You're not gonna ask me?

- Ask what?
- What I do.

No.

This is a little embarrassing,
but I -- I kind of forgot your name.

I don't know if we ever got there.

Yeah. I know we didn't.

We were pretty drunk.

I'm -- I'm Micah.

Angela.

Nice to meet you, Angela.

And here you go.

Eggs over easy on wheat

and one Belgian waffle for the lady.

Do you guys need anything else?

I think we're good, man. Appreciate it.

So -- So which way are you headed?

- Why?
- We can share a cab.

Marina? Cow Hollow?

I'm just saying 'cause, you know,
I'm also headed that way.

So... w-we could --

You know what? I'll get us a cab.

Unless you want to race cabs or something.

Excuse me. Left, right here?

- To the right.
- To the right.

- At the curb.
- Okay.

It's $12.50, please.

Oh, I got it. I got it. It's cool. It's...

Ang -- Wait, Angela. Angela.

Keep it running.

Angela!

[cabbie] Sir? Sir?

Meter's still running.

[Micah] I know, man.

How far you have to go?

Tenderloin.

I thought you lived here.

- Man, just drive.
- Okay.

[scoffs] Think you slick.

Uh, yeah, I'm looking for an address.

Joanne Hardwicke.

Yes, Hardwicke.

No, no, not the J. Hardwicke in San Mateo.

Uh, it's Joanne Hardwicke.

Hardwicke, um, is -- is spelled, uh...

H-A-R-D-W-I-C-K-E.

Yes, ma'am, with an E at the end. Yeah.

Cornelius Street in Oakland?

No, I got that one already.

London.

London.

Yes, London.

Would you stop repeating me?

Oh, all right.

What's he do?

He's a curator.

A curator.

Sorry. Sorry.

It just seems weird that as a curator,

he doesn't really have
any art on the walls.

Like, none.

I mean, it just seems like,
they probably got,

like, an extra painting
or a sculpture lying around

that he could have brought home.

Sorry. Sorry.

Is he white?

- Does it matter?
- Yes and no.

What if I told you he is white,

and we met in a volunteer program
in Bayview?

Would that matter?

- Yes and no.
- Oh, okay. I see.

- You're one of those people.
- "Those people"?

Yes, those people

that think that Black History Month
is in February

because it's the shortest month
in the year.

It is.

Black History Month is in February

because Carter G. Woodson
wanted Negro History Week

to coincide with the births
of Frederick Douglass and Lincoln,

both in the same week in February.

Okay, well, thank you for returning
my wallet, but, um, you have to go.

- Well, we're just getting started.
- You need to leave.

- What did I say?
- Nothing.

- I need to take a shower.

Yes. What you should have done

Okay, well, all right.

Excuse me, sir.

What's up?

What now?

Let's go to MOMA.

I don't want to go to MOMA.

- What's wrong with MOMA?
- No comment.

Okay, Black man.

So what do two Black folks do
on a Sunday afternoon?

Go to church, eat fried chicken.

What do two Black folks not do
on a Sunday afternoon?

- What?
- Go to a museum.

- That is not funny.
- It is funny.

- It's not funny.
- It's funny 'cause it's not funny.

- [Micah] Sylvia Striplin.
- [Jo'] What?

Sylvia Striplin. It's a game.

Name a song that she had sampled
and by who.

Come on. Sylvia Striplin.

I don't listen to music like that.

All right, Sylvia Striplin,
"You Can't Turn Me Away"

or Lil' Kim's "Get Money"?

How's it go?

[imitates jazz funk riff]

♪ You can't turn me away ♪

Okay, I think I remember.

It's basically the same song, right?

Yeah, yeah.
You might have a push on that one.

[imitates high-pitched trumpet, snickers]

Why does yours sound
like a farting trumpet?

MOAD, mama. Not MOMA.

[attendant] Hey, good afternoon.
Welcome to MOAD.

- Thank you.

I'm all right, yeah.

[somber orchestral music playing]

[music swells]

[recorded voice]
The first objects which saluted my eyes

when I arrived on the coast

were the sea and the slave ship,

as well as the multitude of Black people
of every description

chained together,

every one of their countenances
expressing dejection and sorrow.

No, I no longer doubted my fate.

But I was not long-suffered
to indulge my grief,

for I was soon put down under the decks.

There I received such a salutation

as I had never experienced in my life.

Wait.

We should walk somewhere.

Okay.

Have you been there before?

The opening. A few times after that.

I didn't even know it was there.

[water rushing]

[Micah] it looks like LA.

Never been.

Yeah, like the view from the hills.

It's like the hills in LA.

This is a one-night stand.

It's only been one night.
Can't do nothing about that.

I mean, it is what it is.

[scoffs]

[speakers: calliope
playing "Auld Lang Syne"]

[bell clangs]

Watch out for the plant there.

- You got it?
- Yes.

Cool, cool.

You can put your bike right here.

Watch out for the aquarium.

That's cute. Whose bike is that?

It's my ex's.

Oh.

I took it back.

Do you want something to drink
or something?

- No, I'm fine.
- Some -- Some water?

Fine.

- What are you doing?
- I gotta pee.

Okay, well, pee then.

Cool.

[toilet flushes]

- You familiar with that?
- Um, kind of.

I'm a transplant.

Born and raised.

My folks lived out there.

Imagine the Lower Haight,
nothing but Black folks and white artists.

Hmm.

But why would you put it on your wall?

I know you're not supposed to forget,

but it's not like you'd forget
without seeing it every day.

Oh, no, no. It's not like that.

You know, people just walk around
this city like everything is so perfect,

and it's all good and everything.

I don't know, this just reminds me,
you know, poor folks still got it hard.

Like, you look at Mission Bay,
and this poster's still relevant.

Oh, I'm just saying.

You want some tea or something?

Cool. I washed my hands. I promise.

- You can check.
- Stop.

- Do you even like it here?
- What?

It seems like this city
just pisses you off.

[chuckles] No, I love this city.

I hate this city, but I love this city.

I mean, the hills, the fog.

Any man who can find a street corner
has got himself a view.

San Francisco is beautiful,
and it's got nothing to do with privilege.

It's got nothing to do with beatniks
or hippies or yuppies.

It just is.

You shouldn't have to be
upper middle class to be a part of that.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Were you sleeping?
- Maybe.

What are you doing?

- Getting in my bed.
- [chuckles] No, you're not.

- Yes, I am.
- No, you haven't showered.

- So? It's my bed.
- Not while I'm in it.

[laughs] You don't pay rent here.

All day today, last night, no shower.

That's disgusting.

I've been with you all day.
You know where I've been.

Exactly.

- For real?
- Yes.

Fine. I'm not using soap.

And I might not dry off either.

I'm all clean. Are you happy now?

I can get in my own bed?

So... what do you do?

I'm the number two aquarium guy
in the whole Bay Area.

Number two what?

Aquarium installer.
You know, fish tanks and stuff like that.

But more than that. Like, there's a guy,
he's the number one guy.

And he does all kind
of high-end corporate shit.

But then after that,
I'm point man on everything else.

It's mostly doctors' offices,
stuff like that.

What's it like?

Well, I got a little setup over on Fulton.

I send my tanks there.
I go get the right rock.

And then I go over to San Leandro

where there's a warehouse
where I get all my fish.

I get 'em straight from Fiji, Indonesia.

It's cool.

But you can go to a store,
and you might be looking for an angelfish.

They might have one angelfish
in that whole store.

You're married to that angelfish.

But the warehouse,
they got all kinds of angels.

For a lot of people,
getting an aquarium is like set dressing.

Like, they know
the type of fish they want.

You know, they got the tank
already set in place.

But for other folks, it's like curating.

They don't know what they want.
They just want it to be beautiful.

That's my job, to make it beautiful.

How'd you get into it?

When I was a kid,
we had a tank in our house,

and you could hear it
through the whole place.

I used to leave my door open
and just fall asleep to the sound of it.

[water bubbling]

That's sweet.

Thanks.

Where you going?

I make T-shirts.

What?

It's kind of what I do.

Like this one.

Okay.

Did you wonder what this name meant?

I just thought it was a name
of some Ikea furniture.

Like a Loden sofa.

It's the name of a filmmaker.

I screen-print them,
different women directors.

I do it at a friend's studio.

You make money off that?

It's not about that.

[strumming guitar]

- I'm gonna play you a song.
- All right.

- What you gonna play?
- Okay.

[strumming slowly]

- I can't play with you looking at me.
- [chuckles]

Okay. Uh... I'll -- I'll turn around.

There. I'm -- I'm not looking at you.

I'm gonna turn around too.

I'll cover my eyes anyway,

just to show you
that I'm a trustworthy guy.

[Jo'] I'm hungry.

[Micah] Say what?

Hey.

Hey.

[Micah groans] Yeah?

We need to eat.

- We need an onion.
- Onion?

Your breath is gonna be kicking
after that.

I'm just -- No, you can get an onion.

I'm just saying, you know,
don't try to tell me any secrets.

[chuckles]

Oh, and check it out. Check it out.

[imitating Bill Cosby]
How do you do today?

Me and the boy have to talk about things,

because he doesn't understand
responsibility.

[Jo' chuckles]

[normal voice] I do impressions.

Every Black guy
has a Bill Cosby impression.

- I think so.
- Yeah.

I won a Cosby-tition in Oakland.

It was part chili cook-off,
part Bill Cosby competition.

I took first place for my Cosby.

Second place
for the chili cook-off, though.

We good?

Cool.

[committee member]
...a neighbor objecting to

a shelter in the neighborhood,
a food court and all these other services.

And we were like,
"What are you talking about?

It's the afternoon, right?"

And they were like, "Property values..."
and blah, blah, blah. I was like, "What?

Property values mean more
than human lives?"

And I think, unfortunately, I think
that's what happened to the Castro.

As the upscale people moved in,
the attitudes became, you know,

more of the attitudes of the upper class.

There is this sense in this town
that we are becoming a city

of the very rich and the very poor.

We all know people have been
pushed out at an alarming rate.

I would say thousands
and thousands of people

have been pushed out in the last 12 years

from mainly the eastern side of the city
where all the renters are.

The mayor, in this last election campaign,

and all the people opposing him never
used the words "rent control" at all.

There were nine or ten other people
opposing the mayor.

None of them mentioned it in
the description of what they believed in

and what they were interested in.

And the mayor, who's been in office
for how many years now,

has never used the words "rent control."

So they are trying to make this
into something

that no one can put their fingers on --
it's just gonna happen.

They're already building
market-rate condos in Bayview,

and you know that they're not gonna have
market-rate condos next to projects.

You know what's gonna go, and it ain't
gonna be the market-rate condos.

We're already seeing that.

Bayview is gonna go
the way the Fillmore did,

and they're gonna gentrify
the neighborhood

and push out the people
who are living there now

and bring in more upscale people.

Well, from when the Fillmore
and the Western Addition

and all that gentrification happened,
we're still feeling those effects.

And then anyone who's gone
through the dot-com boom

knows that, you know,
it looks good now in comparison,

because then people
literally were renting out closets.

Literally renting out closets
for, like, $600 to $800.

They still are.

Is there any, like, options
for people that make --

I mean, there's no affordable housing
for actual poor people?

Move to the East Bay,
which is what people are doing.

I lived in Berkeley and Oakland,

and that has been the tale
of the last ten years.

And unfortunately, a lot of us
from the East Bay are getting pushed out

by people who have been
pushed out of San Francisco.

There's a ballot initiative
that supposedly is about

eminent domain issues

but actually will repeal rent control
throughout the state.

So San Francisco could lose
rent control next June.

Think of over 350,000 apartments

suddenly losing rent control
in San Francisco

and all the people
that could get displaced

potentially by something like that.

As far as I'm concerned,

it's the end of the whole East Side
of San Francisco.

The whole East Side
will just gentrify overnight.

And all of the great things
that we love about San Francisco

would be gone overnight.

the videos.

- Oh, oh, shit.
- Yes.

Rick James in a big white room
with some Euro hos

just grinding on him and his guitar?

- Right?
- Yes. Right. [chuckles]

Uh, all right, I'm gonna
have to pay my respects

and go with Rick James on this one.

[chuckles]

Like, Hammer -- Hammer was tight and all,

but Big Rick, he got --
he got that high angle going.

And he was just --
he was working it on that guitar.

Like, them girls was just in the way,
and he was still just playing

and just calling 'em out by name,
just saying, "You're a super freak."

Like, they can get mad and walk out.

[laughing]

That's how hard he was.

[Jo' chuckling]

Hey, I'm gonna fix your bike for you.

What's wrong with my bike?

- Your brakes were sticking.
- Hmm?

You should get yourself a fixed-gear bike.

[chuckles]

No, you'd be real hot.

You could be like Mae Jemison.

"First Black woman to ride
a fixed-gear bike through the Marina."

Hell, you're probably the first
Black woman in the Marina.

Hey, you ever think about how Black folks
are only 7% of this city?

You have a real issue with race.
You know that?

Obviously, but I'm serious.
And this ain't the weed talking.

You ever think about
how we're only 7% of this city?

You're not 7%. You're Micah.

You know what I mean.

Like, if Black folks are 7% of this city,

and then you take whatever 1% or 2%

considers itself, like, punk
or indie or folk

or, you know,
just not what you see on BET,

like, you ever realize
just how few of us there really are?

Mmm, no.

I mean, check it. You might go to a show,

and for every, like, 300 people,
there's probably one Black person.

And they damn near guaranteed
to have their arm around somebody white.

I'm just saying.

All right, check it.

How do you define yourself?

- Excuse me?
- How do you define yourself?

If you had to describe, you know,
your idea of how you see the world,

like, how would you do it in one word?

That makes no sense.

People aren't that simple.
How can you define yourself in one word?

Easy. Me? I'm a Black man.

That's how I see the world.
That's how the world sees me.

But if I have to choose one,
I'm Black before I'm a man.

So therefore, I am Black.

I don't see it that way.

- Why not?
- [scoffs]

That's your problem.

You feel you have to define everybody.

You limit them to the point where
they're just a definition and not people.

- How do you figure?
- You just said it.

You went from "I am Micah"
to "I am Black."

I'm not?

Yes, but you're everything else too.

That's not how society sees it.

Well... [scoffs]

...who gives a shit
about what society thinks?

I don't -- I don't want to talk anymore.

Let's -- Let's do something.

- What you want to do?
- I want to dance.

All right.

White folks or Black folks?

My bad.

Mm-mmm. But you are not taking this.

No, no, you are much too high
to ride a bicycle.

Mm-mmm.

- No, you can't toke and ride.
- [chuckles]

No, if you do that,
you'll give marijuana a bad name.

[chuckles]

Go ahead and put those shoes on.

You don't want to go out there
in sock feet.

- [Jo' chuckles]
- Then everybody will know you're high.

- Hey, buddy, how you doing?
- [Micah] Good.

- What are you having?
- Two tacos.

- Hot sauce or mild salsa?
- Hot.

- I'll have mild, mild, mild.
- Mild.

For here or to go?

To go, to go, to go.

Hey, what's going on, bro?
You need something?

Oh, no, we're good, man. We're good.

No, check it, check it.
Bust 'em out, bust 'em out.

You know, we got that Formula 50, man.

Arizona tea, kombucha, and SOBe.

You know you need some of that up in you.

No, we're good, man.
We're good. Appreciate it.

Man, you look like you need
some hydration in you, man.

[Micah] No, man, I'm hydrated enough.

All right, man, all right.

I'm already hydrated.

Two tacos, hot sauce.

- Oh, yeah.
- Okay.

And then two tacos with mild salsa.

- Oh, cool, man. Cool.
- Thanks a lot.

How much do I owe you?

- [stomping]
- [Jo' laughs]

Ooh.

[cell phone chimes]

Who was that?

What?

Is it any surprise?

I mean, is it -- is it any surprise
that folks of color in the scene

date outside their race?

- Okay.
- I mean, think about it.

- Like, everything --
- No.

- Every -- Think about it.
- It's not.

Everything about being indie
is all tied to not being Black.

I don't want to talk about this.

Like, everything is all tied
to not being Black.

Like, friends who are indie, white.
Bands who are indie --

Like, okay, you got TV on the Radio,
but the rest of them are white.

Okay.

No, it's not okay.

It's not. Like, everything.

I mean, people call it interracial dating,
but there's nothing interracial about it.

Nine out of ten times,
it's-it's-it's somebody of color

hanging on to a white person.

Like, you never -- you never see --

- Watch your step.
- Fuck my step.

You never see, like, a --

You never see a fucking, like,
a Black girl and an Asian dude.

You never see an Indian guy
and a Latino girl.

It's always one of us
clinging on to one of them.

I mean, look at you.

Why the fuck you gotta date
some white dude?

Why are you doing this?

What do you want from me?

You think just because I'm Black
and you're Black

that we should just be together.

We're just one, right?

We fucked, and I didn't even know you.

I've been spending the last 24 hours
cheating on my boyfriend,

and you think because I'm Black
and you're Black

that we should be together.

Fucking crazy.

[taxi door opens]

[water bubbling]

Wait. I have to go to the bathroom.

[water running]

[water shuts off]

[door opens]

I have to go too.

[urinating]

[toilet flushes]

[water running]

[water shuts off]

I'm leaving.

Wait.

I have to go.

- I have to leave here.
- It's okay.

- I gotta go.
- Why?

Just... Just stay here tonight

and go back to your life tomorrow.

Just stay.

Stay.
