1
00:00:24,923 --> 00:00:27,125
He is such a brave boy.
2
00:00:28,593 --> 00:00:32,178
"I am the young man, full
of strength and hope..."
3
00:00:32,179 --> 00:00:35,482
I can not sit idly by in Atlanta...
4
00:00:35,483 --> 00:00:39,235
and not be concerned about
what happens in Birmingham.
5
00:00:39,236 --> 00:00:44,190
You can never whip these birds, if you
don't keep you and them separate.
6
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:48,061
That's a Watson noggin.
7
00:00:48,829 --> 00:00:51,613
I want you to know we
can be outstanding.
8
00:00:55,001 --> 00:01:00,122
Let freedom ring from every hill
and molehill in Mississippi.
9
00:01:01,508 --> 00:01:04,127
This is about how to
survive a tornado.
10
00:01:08,214 --> 00:01:10,631
Y'all be careful, okay?
11
00:01:10,632 --> 00:01:12,600
I draw the line in the dust...
12
00:01:12,601 --> 00:01:15,052
I will not rest...
13
00:01:15,053 --> 00:01:20,057
until we are able to make this
kind of witness in this city...
14
00:01:20,058 --> 00:01:23,561
We did produce a
non-segregated march...
15
00:01:23,562 --> 00:01:25,063
We don't serve your kind here.
16
00:01:25,064 --> 00:01:26,948
1960-what? 1960-who?
17
00:01:26,949 --> 00:01:29,017
Just shut your stupid mouth.
18
00:01:30,234 --> 00:01:31,985
Where's the colored-only
bathrooms downtown?
19
00:01:31,986 --> 00:01:37,407
There's room here for my
children to play and grow...
20
00:01:37,408 --> 00:01:40,327
Outstanding, Mr. Watson...
21
00:01:45,883 --> 00:01:48,717
Without any outside help
from the federal government.
22
00:01:48,718 --> 00:01:51,420
You know where the
entrance is, right?
23
00:01:51,721 --> 00:01:58,043
When Birmingham becomes more equal, the
entire country becomes more equal.
24
00:02:03,850 --> 00:02:08,070
In 1963, when I was 12 years old...
25
00:02:08,071 --> 00:02:11,573
I lived in Flint, Michigan
with my dad, my mom...
26
00:02:11,574 --> 00:02:14,075
my angelic, little sister Joetta...
27
00:02:14,076 --> 00:02:17,078
and my troubled,
older brother Byron.
28
00:02:17,079 --> 00:02:21,081
And by troubled, I mean he was
always getting into trouble.
29
00:02:21,082 --> 00:02:23,083
I remember a lot about that year.
30
00:02:23,084 --> 00:02:25,087
Including the major snow storm...
31
00:02:25,088 --> 00:02:29,874
and freezing cold weather we
had that first day of spring.
32
00:02:29,875 --> 00:02:36,630
It was so cold, that if you spit, the slob
would be an ice cube before it hit the ground.
33
00:02:36,631 --> 00:02:40,217
It was even cold inside our house.
34
00:02:40,218 --> 00:02:44,221
Maybe it was the cold or maybe
it was Byron's troubles.
35
00:02:44,222 --> 00:02:46,807
But somehow, on that March day...
36
00:02:46,808 --> 00:02:50,143
when we all sat close together
to generate some heat...
37
00:02:50,144 --> 00:02:55,348
the idea of going to Birmingham
for the summer was born.
38
00:02:55,565 --> 00:02:58,951
And spring has already
sprung down south.
39
00:02:58,952 --> 00:03:03,373
In Atlanta, Georgia, the temperatures are
expected to reach the mid-70's this week.
40
00:03:03,374 --> 00:03:07,994
Atlanta... that is right around
the corner from my hometown.
41
00:03:07,995 --> 00:03:11,830
- From your Grandma Sands. I miss my mama.
- Wilona.
42
00:03:11,831 --> 00:03:14,916
I haven't seen her in so long.
43
00:03:14,917 --> 00:03:17,252
Maybe I should have
listened to Hank Henderson.
44
00:03:17,253 --> 00:03:20,422
- Who?
- Not that sorry story.
45
00:03:20,423 --> 00:03:21,922
You gotta let me tell about
what happened to him.
46
00:03:21,923 --> 00:03:24,426
Oh, well, there's not a
whole lot to tell...
47
00:03:24,427 --> 00:03:30,931
just a story about a young
girl who made a bad choice.
48
00:03:30,932 --> 00:03:32,817
But if you're gonna tell it, make
sure you get the facts straight.
49
00:03:32,818 --> 00:03:34,818
Oh, boy, here we go.
50
00:03:34,819 --> 00:03:35,853
Come on, Daddy, tell us.
51
00:03:35,854 --> 00:03:36,615
Yeah, tell us.
52
00:03:36,855 --> 00:03:39,189
Kids, I almost wasn't your daddy.
53
00:03:39,190 --> 00:03:44,411
You almost had a clown for a
daddy named Hambone Henderson.
54
00:03:44,412 --> 00:03:45,913
Hambone? What kind of name is that?
55
00:03:45,914 --> 00:03:47,414
Exactly.
56
00:03:47,415 --> 00:03:49,916
Daniel Watson, you stop right there. You're
the one who started that Hambone nonsense.
57
00:03:49,917 --> 00:03:52,918
But it stuck with him, didn't it?
Hambone Henderson.
58
00:03:52,919 --> 00:03:54,920
Me and your granddaddy
came up with that name...
59
00:03:54,921 --> 00:03:57,289
because the boy had a head
shaped just like a hambone...
60
00:03:57,290 --> 00:04:00,677
and more knots and lumps on
his head than a dinosaur.
61
00:04:00,678 --> 00:04:02,963
So when y'all sit here
giving me dirty looks...
62
00:04:03,130 --> 00:04:05,964
ask yourself would you rather
be cool like your daddy...
63
00:04:05,965 --> 00:04:09,052
or would you rather be a clown
like Hambone Henderson?
64
00:04:09,053 --> 00:04:12,020
Mommy, is that true?
65
00:04:12,021 --> 00:04:13,305
Kenny might be a Hambone.
66
00:04:13,723 --> 00:04:17,760
Naw, Kenny, that's a Watson noggin.
67
00:04:18,144 --> 00:04:21,645
Hambone Henderson proposed to your
momma at the same time that I did...
68
00:04:21,646 --> 00:04:23,115
and he fought dirty, too.
69
00:04:23,116 --> 00:04:26,951
He told her a pack of lies about me
and when she didn't believe them...
70
00:04:26,952 --> 00:04:29,320
he started telling her a
pack of lies about Flint.
71
00:04:29,321 --> 00:04:30,789
And this is how he talk, he say...
72
00:04:30,790 --> 00:04:36,660
"Wilona, I heard tell that far up north
supposed to be colder than inside an icebox."
73
00:04:36,661 --> 00:04:40,698
Said, "I seen it in a movie, yeah,
I think it was made in Flint.
74
00:04:40,999 --> 00:04:43,001
"Movie named 'Nanook of the North'.
75
00:04:43,002 --> 00:04:49,006
"Yup, I think it was made up in Flint.
Uh-huh, Flint, Mitch-again."
76
00:04:49,007 --> 00:04:52,007
He said, "Folks up there, they live
in these things called igloos."
77
00:04:52,008 --> 00:04:57,180
He said, "You a 'Bama gal, you ain't gonna
be too happy living up in no igloo."
78
00:04:57,181 --> 00:05:01,151
Living in Flint is like
living in an igloo.
79
00:05:01,152 --> 00:05:03,820
I knew I should have
listened to Hank.
80
00:05:03,821 --> 00:05:07,906
Now maybe you would have had some lumpy
heads instead of peanut heads...
81
00:05:07,907 --> 00:05:09,907
but at least you'd have been warm.
82
00:05:09,908 --> 00:05:11,911
Now you know Birmingham
is a good place.
83
00:05:11,912 --> 00:05:17,116
Life is slower, but people are
good, church-going people...
84
00:05:17,117 --> 00:05:19,118
they're friendly.
85
00:05:19,119 --> 00:05:22,121
Yes, it's just a laugh
a minute up there.
86
00:05:22,122 --> 00:05:24,956
Let's see, where's the
colored-only bathroom downtown?
87
00:05:24,957 --> 00:05:26,175
- What?
- Colored what?
88
00:05:26,176 --> 00:05:27,543
Colored-only.
89
00:05:27,544 --> 00:05:30,996
Nah, you know that's
not what I mean.
90
00:05:31,380 --> 00:05:32,879
Things aren't perfect down there...
91
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,184
but people are more honest
about the way they feel.
92
00:05:36,185 --> 00:05:40,688
And folks down there do know
how to respect their parents.
93
00:05:40,689 --> 00:05:42,023
Mm-hm.
94
00:05:42,024 --> 00:05:44,976
And I really do miss my momma.
95
00:05:44,977 --> 00:05:45,978
Okay, okay, okay...
96
00:05:45,979 --> 00:05:48,980
I'm gonna call the
landlord again...
97
00:05:48,981 --> 00:05:51,732
see if he can get over here
now and fix this furnace.
98
00:05:52,033 --> 00:05:53,732
But if he can't, I'm gonna
call Aunt Cydney...
99
00:05:53,733 --> 00:05:55,819
and we gonna have to go over
there and stay with her.
100
00:05:55,820 --> 00:05:59,290
Byron, get up. Kenny, get up.
Go scrape off that car.
101
00:05:59,291 --> 00:06:02,943
Byron, get up! Come on! Go!
102
00:06:07,331 --> 00:06:09,032
It's cold.
103
00:06:13,837 --> 00:06:17,223
I'm telling you now, Byron,
I'm not doing your part!
104
00:06:17,224 --> 00:06:18,975
You better do it and I'm
not playing, either.
105
00:06:18,976 --> 00:06:20,009
Shut up, punk.
106
00:06:20,010 --> 00:06:23,011
I'm serious, Byron, and I'm
only doing half the windshield.
107
00:06:23,012 --> 00:06:25,096
I don't care what you do to me.
Shut your stupid mouth!
108
00:06:25,097 --> 00:06:27,800
I got something more
important to do right now.
109
00:06:32,354 --> 00:06:34,856
You know what, square?
I must be adopted.
110
00:06:34,857 --> 00:06:37,860
Because there ain't no way two folks
as ugly as your momma and daddy...
111
00:06:37,861 --> 00:06:42,064
could give birth to someone
as sharp as me. Look at that.
112
00:06:42,865 --> 00:06:46,451
Forget you.
Maybe you are a Hambone!
113
00:06:49,505 --> 00:06:54,591
You're not tricking me again!
Hitting me with all those snowballs.
114
00:06:54,592 --> 00:06:57,344
And in front of Buphead, too.
115
00:06:57,345 --> 00:06:59,046
Not right.
116
00:06:59,347 --> 00:07:02,249
Kenny, Kenny, help, help!
117
00:07:02,550 --> 00:07:06,053
Kenny! Kenny!
Help me, help me!
118
00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:10,139
Help me!
119
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,859
I'm not playing, Byron!
I'm not that stupid.
120
00:07:12,860 --> 00:07:15,195
I'm serious, Kenny, go get help!
Go get momma!
121
00:07:15,196 --> 00:07:17,029
Why?
122
00:07:17,030 --> 00:07:19,115
Go get Momma, go get her, help!
123
00:07:19,116 --> 00:07:22,118
Momma! Come on, quick, it's By!
124
00:07:22,119 --> 00:07:25,120
Kenny Bernard Watson, what
is all that yelling about?
125
00:07:25,121 --> 00:07:27,206
- What on earth is going on?
- Quick! Quick! Hurry!
126
00:07:27,207 --> 00:07:28,207
Come on!
127
00:07:28,208 --> 00:07:31,126
Come on, I need help!
Geh me offa 'ere!
128
00:07:31,127 --> 00:07:33,161
Oh, my word.
129
00:07:33,162 --> 00:07:35,080
It's okay, sweetheart.
130
00:07:35,081 --> 00:07:36,130
How did this happen?
131
00:07:36,131 --> 00:07:38,999
Why you asking how it happened?
Can't you tell?
132
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,170
This little knucklehead was kissing
his reflection in the window...
133
00:07:42,171 --> 00:07:44,005
and his lips got stuck.
134
00:07:44,006 --> 00:07:45,507
- Dad, help!
- Daniel, what are we gonna do?
135
00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:46,757
What do y'all do when
this happens up here?
136
00:07:46,758 --> 00:07:49,226
I don't know, I've lived in
Flint, Michigan my whole life...
137
00:07:49,227 --> 00:07:52,179
and I ain't never seen anyone with
their lips stuck to a window.
138
00:07:52,180 --> 00:07:54,180
I don't know what to
do, let him thaw out.
139
00:07:54,181 --> 00:07:55,266
Pull him off, Dad.
140
00:07:55,517 --> 00:07:56,850
No, no, no, no!
141
00:07:56,851 --> 00:07:59,852
What should we do? Should we pour
some hot water on the window...
142
00:07:59,853 --> 00:08:02,273
so it'll warm up and
we can pull him off?
143
00:08:02,274 --> 00:08:04,774
Byron, don't worry, baby.
We gonna get you off of here.
144
00:08:04,775 --> 00:08:07,111
I don't know, pouring hot water
on it might make it worse.
145
00:08:07,112 --> 00:08:11,281
But yeah, get some hot water out of
the tap and I'll see what I can do.
146
00:08:11,282 --> 00:08:12,865
Gimme this.
147
00:08:12,866 --> 00:08:14,367
Okay, lover boy...
148
00:08:17,254 --> 00:08:20,006
I guess you won't be getting
called hot lips, huh?
149
00:08:20,007 --> 00:08:22,090
The last of the red
hot lovers, either.
150
00:08:22,091 --> 00:08:24,711
Don't do that!
Oh, no, don't do that!
151
00:08:24,762 --> 00:08:26,546
No! Let me go!
152
00:08:27,348 --> 00:08:30,299
You better stop banging on this
brown bomber, boy, I ain't playing.
153
00:08:30,300 --> 00:08:32,668
Hey! Come here.
154
00:08:33,553 --> 00:08:36,255
Okay, come on, okay.
155
00:08:36,556 --> 00:08:39,258
It's okay, it's all right.
It's okay.
156
00:08:51,069 --> 00:08:52,653
Oh, no, 'top! 'top!
157
00:08:52,654 --> 00:08:54,155
Daniel, get in the house
and call the hospital...
158
00:08:54,156 --> 00:08:56,657
see what they say we should do.
159
00:08:56,658 --> 00:08:58,359
Joey and Kenny, go with your daddy!
160
00:08:58,627 --> 00:09:02,831
Okay, sweetheart, now you know
we're gonna have to do something.
161
00:09:03,081 --> 00:09:06,134
I'm just gonna warm up your
face a little bit, okay?
162
00:09:06,135 --> 00:09:09,337
All right, just relax, just relax.
163
00:09:09,338 --> 00:09:11,921
Okay, now you know I love you...
164
00:09:11,922 --> 00:09:15,125
and I wouldn't do anything
to hurt you, right?
165
00:09:15,426 --> 00:09:17,928
- Right? Okay.
- Wait, what are you gonna do?
166
00:09:17,929 --> 00:09:21,131
All right, it's okay.
It's okay, baby.
167
00:09:21,432 --> 00:09:25,135
No, no, can't... can't
hurt my mouth! Oh! No!
168
00:09:26,020 --> 00:09:28,055
No, no! No! Come on!
Get off me!
169
00:09:28,939 --> 00:09:30,272
Yee-ow!
170
00:09:31,574 --> 00:09:34,575
I didn't see it, but I bet
Byron's lips stretched a mile...
171
00:09:34,576 --> 00:09:36,078
before he let go of that window.
172
00:09:36,079 --> 00:09:41,484
I bet his lips looked like a giant rubber band
before they snapped away from that glass.
173
00:09:42,285 --> 00:09:44,420
- Hey, Joey, guess what?
- What?
174
00:09:44,421 --> 00:09:45,953
When I get to Aunt Cydney's...
175
00:09:45,954 --> 00:09:48,040
I'm going to start writing
my own comic book.
176
00:09:48,041 --> 00:09:49,458
About what?
177
00:09:49,459 --> 00:09:52,427
Well, it's going to be about
this really mean criminal...
178
00:09:52,428 --> 00:09:55,429
who has a terrible accident that
turns him into a superhero.
179
00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:57,015
Do you know what I'm gonna
call that superhero?
180
00:09:57,016 --> 00:09:58,466
Mm-mm.
181
00:09:58,467 --> 00:10:01,086
The Lipless Wonder.
182
00:10:02,354 --> 00:10:05,807
All he does is beat up other superheroes
who are smaller than him...
183
00:10:05,808 --> 00:10:09,511
and the only thing he's afraid of...
is a cold window.
184
00:10:10,728 --> 00:10:13,263
You wait, I'm gonna kick
your little behind!
185
00:10:14,482 --> 00:10:17,451
As the weather warmed up, Byron
and his friend Buphead...
186
00:10:17,452 --> 00:10:20,319
were happy to be on the streets
after being cooped up inside.
187
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,291
We all were, but Byron and
Buphead together were dangerous.
188
00:10:24,292 --> 00:10:26,777
There's a problem?
189
00:10:27,578 --> 00:10:28,879
What up, punk?
190
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,048
You want to learn something that
may save your stupid life one day?
191
00:10:32,049 --> 00:10:34,133
Er, uh, no.
192
00:10:34,134 --> 00:10:36,419
No? Well, we're gonna
teach you anyway.
193
00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:38,788
Yeah, this is called how
to survive a tornado.
194
00:10:43,927 --> 00:10:46,896
Byron, why would you do that?
195
00:10:46,897 --> 00:10:49,482
Are you okay, Kenny?
196
00:10:49,483 --> 00:10:51,766
I'm fine, get on the bus.
197
00:10:51,767 --> 00:10:53,401
Give my regards to
Clark, Poindexter.
198
00:10:53,402 --> 00:10:54,603
You're not going to school?
199
00:10:54,604 --> 00:10:57,489
School is for punks.
200
00:10:57,490 --> 00:11:00,192
The only thing worse than
when Buphead and Byron...
201
00:11:00,276 --> 00:11:02,576
were around, was when they weren't.
202
00:11:02,577 --> 00:11:05,581
It was like an open season on me
for the other kids to jump me.
203
00:11:05,582 --> 00:11:08,733
Poindexter the punk.
204
00:11:11,586 --> 00:11:14,671
Sometimes when Byron
tried to cut class...
205
00:11:14,672 --> 00:11:16,623
he got busted and
dragged to school.
206
00:11:16,624 --> 00:11:19,960
On those days, it was
particularly rough on me.
207
00:11:19,961 --> 00:11:21,745
Like it was my fault.
208
00:11:27,302 --> 00:11:29,302
I've stressed on
numerous occasions...
209
00:11:29,303 --> 00:11:31,686
the importance of being
familiar with literature.
210
00:11:31,687 --> 00:11:36,609
And I want to remind you of the vital
importance of being able to read well...
211
00:11:36,610 --> 00:11:40,563
and to be able to present
yourselves well in public...
212
00:11:40,564 --> 00:11:42,030
with the highest of standards.
213
00:11:42,031 --> 00:11:47,404
Today I want to give you a demonstration
of your own possibilities in this regard.
214
00:11:47,405 --> 00:11:51,456
I want you to know we
can be outstanding.
215
00:11:51,457 --> 00:11:55,577
Kenneth Watson?
Come on in here.
216
00:11:56,963 --> 00:12:01,633
Respect your fellow students.
Go on, son, show them how it's done.
217
00:12:01,634 --> 00:12:06,138
Because I liked to read, I was a
target for torture and ridicule.
218
00:12:06,139 --> 00:12:09,641
I was so nervous, I couldn't
even open up my book.
219
00:12:09,642 --> 00:12:12,426
Good thing I didn't need it.
220
00:12:14,229 --> 00:12:19,801
This is a poem written by
Langston Hughes in 1935.
221
00:12:21,603 --> 00:12:25,322
Let America Be America Again.
222
00:12:25,323 --> 00:12:30,410
Let America be America again.
223
00:12:30,411 --> 00:12:34,614
Let it be the dream it used to be.
224
00:12:34,615 --> 00:12:39,202
I am the young man full
of strength and hope...
225
00:12:39,203 --> 00:12:44,207
tangled in that ancient,
endless chain of profit...
226
00:12:44,208 --> 00:12:48,011
power, gain of grab the land.
227
00:12:48,012 --> 00:12:52,598
We the people must redeem
the land, the mines...
228
00:12:52,599 --> 00:12:54,601
the plants, the rivers,
the mountains.
229
00:12:54,602 --> 00:12:58,103
An endless plain, all...
230
00:12:58,104 --> 00:13:01,807
all the stretch of these
great, green states.
231
00:13:03,610 --> 00:13:07,814
And make America... America.
232
00:13:09,115 --> 00:13:10,515
Again.
233
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,773
Bravo. Outstanding, Mr. Watson.
234
00:13:19,541 --> 00:13:21,042
Here that little egg head punk is.
235
00:13:21,043 --> 00:13:23,044
Leave the little clown alone.
236
00:13:23,045 --> 00:13:25,662
It's a crying shame, takin' him
around like a circus freak.
237
00:13:25,663 --> 00:13:28,449
Look, at least you oughtta make
them pay you for doing that mess.
238
00:13:28,550 --> 00:13:30,332
If it was me, they'd be
coming out their pockets...
239
00:13:30,333 --> 00:13:33,553
with some serious folding money
every time they took me around.
240
00:13:33,554 --> 00:13:36,557
I figured they were going to
tease me or beat me up...
241
00:13:36,558 --> 00:13:39,559
but just like that,
Byron saved my neck.
242
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:41,061
He could be like that sometimes.
243
00:13:41,062 --> 00:13:44,515
You just never knew which
Byron you were gonna get.
244
00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:49,401
Byron, do you really think the
genie behind the couch...
245
00:13:49,402 --> 00:13:50,853
is gonna fix my doll's arm?
246
00:13:50,854 --> 00:13:53,321
I told you, he will fix it.
Just give it time.
247
00:13:53,322 --> 00:13:54,807
Leave it back there overnight
and see what happens.
248
00:13:55,108 --> 00:13:58,611
Don't believe him, Joey.
He's just making this all up.
249
00:13:58,612 --> 00:14:00,278
Hmm, that's what he's saying now...
250
00:14:00,279 --> 00:14:02,580
but, Joey, remember when Kenny
had that big math test?
251
00:14:02,581 --> 00:14:06,118
- He went behind the sofa to study
and guess what grade he got?
- What?
252
00:14:06,119 --> 00:14:07,836
- An A.
- Really, Kenny?
253
00:14:07,837 --> 00:14:10,338
Byron is the one who made us
believe in magic powers...
254
00:14:10,339 --> 00:14:12,839
that genies and angels
lived behind the couch.
255
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,842
I wasn't sure if I believed,
but just in case...
256
00:14:15,843 --> 00:14:17,846
sometimes I studied back
there for reinforcement.
257
00:14:17,847 --> 00:14:19,180
Yeah, yeah.
258
00:14:19,181 --> 00:14:22,767
Byron, I want you and Kenny to go up
to Mitchell's and get some milk...
259
00:14:22,768 --> 00:14:25,971
a loaf of bread, and a small can
of tomato paste for dinner.
260
00:14:26,055 --> 00:14:27,689
Why can't Kenny go by himself?
261
00:14:27,690 --> 00:14:32,025
Byron, I want some milk,
a loaf of bread...
262
00:14:32,026 --> 00:14:33,809
and a small can of tomato paste.
263
00:14:33,810 --> 00:14:35,861
On Thursday, the Negroes
gave vivid evidence...
264
00:14:35,862 --> 00:14:40,267
that they would no longer tolerate
the patterns of the last 100 years.
265
00:14:40,618 --> 00:14:43,452
The crowd surged into downtown
and outside the south...
266
00:14:43,453 --> 00:14:47,107
voices were roused to ask why the
federal government was not involved.
267
00:14:49,711 --> 00:14:52,295
You shouldn't watch that in
front of Kenny and Joetta.
268
00:14:52,296 --> 00:14:54,797
Yeah, I understand, grown-ups only.
269
00:14:54,798 --> 00:14:56,783
Oh, Byron, please don't start.
270
00:15:12,982 --> 00:15:15,899
After Byron got busted
stealing from Mitchell's...
271
00:15:15,900 --> 00:15:18,403
he wasn't supposed to be
outside of the house at all.
272
00:15:18,404 --> 00:15:20,739
It was like he
couldn't help himself.
273
00:15:20,740 --> 00:15:22,191
He couldn't stay out of trouble.
274
00:15:22,192 --> 00:15:24,609
He kept digging deeper and deeper.
275
00:15:24,610 --> 00:15:26,812
Byron was out of control.
276
00:15:42,844 --> 00:15:44,261
Action!
277
00:15:44,262 --> 00:15:46,847
Enemy parachutes attack America...
278
00:15:46,848 --> 00:15:51,968
shot down over Flint River by Captain Byron
Watson and his flamethrower of death.
279
00:15:51,969 --> 00:15:53,803
Take six.
280
00:15:54,104 --> 00:15:58,841
Ja wohl, mein Fuhrer!
Auf wiedersehen!
281
00:16:02,646 --> 00:16:05,699
Such a brave soldier
deserves our respect...
282
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:08,768
so we give him a burial at sea.
283
00:16:16,576 --> 00:16:19,111
Momma, I...
284
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,001
Come here.
285
00:16:27,086 --> 00:16:32,089
Didn't I tell you, Byron?
I told you... one more time.
286
00:16:32,090 --> 00:16:34,091
One more time!
287
00:16:34,092 --> 00:16:36,811
If I found you burning matches
in this house one more time...
288
00:16:36,812 --> 00:16:40,682
putting this family in danger,
I was gonna wear you out...
289
00:16:40,766 --> 00:16:43,983
and this time, I am going to do it!
You have left me no choice.
290
00:16:43,984 --> 00:16:45,719
Momma, please don't do it!
291
00:16:45,937 --> 00:16:48,022
He won't do it again,
will you, Byron?
292
00:16:48,023 --> 00:16:49,691
- Promise her!
- Joetta, move! Move!
293
00:16:49,741 --> 00:16:51,525
Promise Momma you
won't do it again!
294
00:16:51,526 --> 00:16:55,945
He needs to learn a
very important lesson.
295
00:16:57,665 --> 00:17:00,667
No! No!
296
00:17:00,668 --> 00:17:01,584
Come here.
297
00:17:01,585 --> 00:17:04,871
And what are you doing with
a hat on in this house?
298
00:17:04,872 --> 00:17:06,790
Take it off!
299
00:17:06,791 --> 00:17:09,376
- Momma, I...
- Right now!
300
00:17:19,219 --> 00:17:21,553
What have you done?
301
00:17:21,554 --> 00:17:22,972
Byron had gotten a conk...
302
00:17:22,973 --> 00:17:26,642
a process, a doo, a
butter, a ton of trouble.
303
00:17:26,643 --> 00:17:28,643
Byron, run and get out of here!
304
00:17:28,644 --> 00:17:30,896
- Can't you see she's not playing?
- Joetta, move away from him!
305
00:17:30,897 --> 00:17:32,480
Momma! No!
306
00:17:32,564 --> 00:17:37,351
Hey! Hey!
What is going on?
307
00:17:37,953 --> 00:17:38,820
Oh, man!
308
00:17:38,821 --> 00:17:41,122
Hold your head still, boy.
309
00:17:41,123 --> 00:17:42,991
Take off one of those
ears by mistake.
310
00:17:42,992 --> 00:17:46,994
Kenny, what are you doing?
311
00:17:46,995 --> 00:17:48,880
Uh, nothing, Momma.
312
00:17:48,881 --> 00:17:50,831
What's your daddy doing?
313
00:17:50,832 --> 00:17:55,752
He's whistling... and
cutting off Byron's hair.
314
00:17:55,753 --> 00:17:59,222
Come on with me and
leave them alone.
315
00:17:59,223 --> 00:18:01,425
Yes, Momma.
316
00:18:04,228 --> 00:18:04,895
The genie did it.
317
00:18:04,896 --> 00:18:06,979
The genie did it,
that's pretty amazing.
318
00:18:06,980 --> 00:18:10,183
- Ow!
- Cut it out, it's just a little aftershave.
319
00:18:11,985 --> 00:18:16,856
Mrs. Watson, I would like to introduce
you to your long-lost son from Siam...
320
00:18:16,857 --> 00:18:21,061
his royal highness, Yule Watson.
321
00:18:26,750 --> 00:18:32,253
And Mrs. Watson, you can't possibly
deny that this is your child...
322
00:18:32,254 --> 00:18:34,256
because as you can see, he has
a lot of Sands blood in him...
323
00:18:34,257 --> 00:18:37,542
look at these ears.
324
00:18:37,543 --> 00:18:40,128
Don't try to blame that
on my side of the family.
325
00:18:40,129 --> 00:18:42,097
Someone switched this
child at the hospital.
326
00:18:42,098 --> 00:18:45,133
Hmm, come on.
327
00:18:45,134 --> 00:18:50,137
Hey! I can't believe you, my son...
328
00:18:50,138 --> 00:18:52,723
would want to walk around
looking like some pimp...
329
00:18:52,724 --> 00:18:56,227
or hustler or white boy,
none of which you are.
330
00:18:56,277 --> 00:18:59,363
So you go, you get the
broom, the dustpan...
331
00:18:59,364 --> 00:19:00,863
you clean that bathroom out...
332
00:19:00,864 --> 00:19:03,567
and you go in your room
and stay in your room.
333
00:19:03,868 --> 00:19:05,788
You're old enough now,
you been told enough.
334
00:19:05,870 --> 00:19:09,073
Now we gotta do something
about it! Beat it!
335
00:19:15,379 --> 00:19:17,213
She's a tough, old lady...
336
00:19:17,214 --> 00:19:19,049
but why does she think she
gotta yell into the phone...
337
00:19:19,050 --> 00:19:21,751
every time we talk long distance?
338
00:19:21,752 --> 00:19:23,719
Give me this.
339
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,539
Okay, Momma, we'll be
getting back to you.
340
00:19:26,924 --> 00:19:29,626
I love you.
Bye bye.
341
00:19:34,847 --> 00:19:36,348
I don't know why we
didn't catch on...
342
00:19:36,349 --> 00:19:39,350
that something different was
really going to happen this time.
343
00:19:39,351 --> 00:19:43,354
Momma and Dad started acting real strange
right after they talked to Grandma Sands.
344
00:19:43,355 --> 00:19:44,857
Come on, everybody!
Everybody, all right, now!
345
00:19:44,858 --> 00:19:47,359
Here we go! Come on!
346
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:52,564
Lean in here. Come on,
Byron, what do you think?
347
00:19:53,365 --> 00:19:55,367
Well, what on earth is
that towel doing there?
348
00:19:55,368 --> 00:19:58,035
Kenny, do the honors.
349
00:19:58,036 --> 00:20:03,591
Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the
newest addition to the Brown Bomber.
350
00:20:03,592 --> 00:20:06,260
Our very own...
351
00:20:06,261 --> 00:20:08,796
drive around record player!
352
00:20:09,464 --> 00:20:10,713
Oh, boy!
353
00:20:10,714 --> 00:20:14,384
Oh, man, this is too, too hip!
No one's got one of these.
354
00:20:14,385 --> 00:20:16,387
Speedy don't even have one
in his Cadillac, man.
355
00:20:16,388 --> 00:20:18,271
Too much, way too much!
356
00:20:18,272 --> 00:20:19,856
Turn it on, Dad!
357
00:20:19,857 --> 00:20:24,359
Well, well, well, I see that you
three have the ultimate in taste.
358
00:20:24,360 --> 00:20:27,364
I see you have chosen a
top-of-the-line, the cream-of-the-crop.
359
00:20:27,365 --> 00:20:33,285
The Truetone AB-700
model, the Ultra Glide.
360
00:20:33,286 --> 00:20:38,374
And, as I'm sure such a fine and
intelligent-looking family such as this...
361
00:20:38,375 --> 00:20:42,294
it is Mr. and Mrs. Watson, yes?
362
00:20:42,295 --> 00:20:44,297
And this is your son, isn't it?
363
00:20:44,298 --> 00:20:46,798
Oh, no, this isn't our son...
364
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:50,051
this is just a little juvenile
delinquent boy that we feel sorry for...
365
00:20:50,052 --> 00:20:52,337
and let us follow us
around some of the time.
366
00:20:52,338 --> 00:20:54,372
Our real son has hair.
367
00:20:55,757 --> 00:20:56,841
Hey, hey, hey!
368
00:20:56,842 --> 00:20:59,627
Please, Mrs. Watson, can you
control this little delinquent...
369
00:20:59,811 --> 00:21:01,227
that follows you
around all the time?
370
00:21:01,228 --> 00:21:04,232
Because if I see him over there playing
with the knobs on that record player...
371
00:21:04,233 --> 00:21:07,935
I might just pull his
fingers off his hand.
372
00:21:07,936 --> 00:21:10,520
Well, well, well!
373
00:21:10,521 --> 00:21:18,161
I see you have such a
beautiful, young daughter.
374
00:21:18,162 --> 00:21:20,580
Oh, yes, we are very proud.
375
00:21:20,581 --> 00:21:21,665
Oh!
376
00:21:21,666 --> 00:21:23,034
Daniel, go on and
start that record.
377
00:21:23,035 --> 00:21:24,151
All right.
378
00:21:49,192 --> 00:21:52,276
Did you tell them yet?
379
00:21:52,277 --> 00:21:54,062
No, it can wait.
380
00:21:54,063 --> 00:21:55,564
No, it can't.
381
00:21:56,782 --> 00:21:59,117
Uh-oh, this sounded like the
way Byron and I found out...
382
00:21:59,118 --> 00:22:00,602
we were going to have a sister.
383
00:22:04,656 --> 00:22:10,160
Children, in a few days, your daddy's
gonna get some vacation time...
384
00:22:10,161 --> 00:22:13,163
and we're gonna drive
to Birmingham.
385
00:22:13,164 --> 00:22:18,169
Now y'all know I haven't been back home in a
while, and it's time for us to see our family.
386
00:22:18,170 --> 00:22:22,139
And for you to get to
know your southern roots.
387
00:22:22,140 --> 00:22:26,175
Now when we get there, your daddy will stay for
a few days and we will stay for the summer.
388
00:22:26,176 --> 00:22:28,929
Yeah, that's why I bought the Ultra
Glide, because we have a long trip.
389
00:22:28,930 --> 00:22:31,479
It's 15 hours down there and
once we get around Cincinnati...
390
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,183
ain't nothing but hillbilly
music gonna be playing.
391
00:22:34,184 --> 00:22:36,186
And depending on how things go...
392
00:22:36,187 --> 00:22:40,272
Byron may stay with Grandma
Sands for the school year.
393
00:22:40,273 --> 00:22:44,360
Yeah, you know I didn't want to condemn you
to stay with Grandma Sands like that...
394
00:22:44,361 --> 00:22:46,244
but you left us no other choice.
395
00:22:46,245 --> 00:22:48,164
We had heard so many
horrible stories...
396
00:22:48,165 --> 00:22:50,164
about how strict Grandma Sands was.
397
00:22:50,165 --> 00:22:51,165
The thought of living with
her was so terrible...
398
00:22:51,166 --> 00:22:54,453
that your brain would throw
it out as soon as it came in.
399
00:22:54,454 --> 00:22:56,755
We've been telling you, Byron.
400
00:22:56,756 --> 00:22:59,089
You've been given
warning after warning.
401
00:22:59,090 --> 00:23:01,877
But instead of improving,
you're getting worse.
402
00:23:01,878 --> 00:23:06,881
You've cut school so much, Mr. Williams
has been by here three times...
403
00:23:06,882 --> 00:23:08,383
to see what's wrong with you.
404
00:23:08,384 --> 00:23:11,935
You've been lighting fires,
you've been fighting.
405
00:23:11,936 --> 00:23:14,638
You stole from the
Mitchell Food Fair.
406
00:23:14,639 --> 00:23:18,725
You set mouse traps in the
backyard for the birds.
407
00:23:18,726 --> 00:23:21,228
That's just too much, Byron.
408
00:23:21,229 --> 00:23:24,231
We can't have all that
nonsense going on.
409
00:23:24,232 --> 00:23:27,951
Now I never thought I'd say it...
410
00:23:27,952 --> 00:23:31,404
but maybe a dose of Birmingham will
help you get your priorities straight.
411
00:23:31,405 --> 00:23:37,160
And best of all,
there is no Buphead.
412
00:23:38,245 --> 00:23:39,946
Hey!
413
00:23:40,214 --> 00:23:44,000
No, no, let him go, Daniel.
414
00:23:44,001 --> 00:23:47,454
He better get as much of this
nonsense out of his system as he can.
415
00:23:50,339 --> 00:23:53,842
The University of Alabama Tuscaloosa
campus is on tight security guard...
416
00:23:53,843 --> 00:23:57,845
as Governor Wallace appeals for
calm as he stands in the doorway...
417
00:23:57,846 --> 00:24:01,849
to prevent two Negro students from
registering at the University.
418
00:24:01,850 --> 00:24:04,353
He made a campaign promise
to prevent integration...
419
00:24:04,354 --> 00:24:07,189
of the last all-white
state university.
420
00:24:07,190 --> 00:24:11,275
And I say segregation now,
segregation tomorrow...
421
00:24:11,276 --> 00:24:13,944
and segregation forever.
422
00:24:13,945 --> 00:24:16,030
- Momma?
- Hm.
423
00:24:16,031 --> 00:24:18,233
Is that where we're going?
424
00:24:19,534 --> 00:24:22,536
Go on to your room, Kenny.
425
00:24:22,537 --> 00:24:25,039
Don't you worry about that.
426
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,208
Go on, baby.
427
00:24:29,044 --> 00:24:30,008
It's a tough break, man.
428
00:24:30,009 --> 00:24:32,429
You couldn't figure
your way out, huh?
429
00:24:32,430 --> 00:24:37,934
And dang, down south, you gonna
come back all countrified.
430
00:24:37,935 --> 00:24:40,720
No, I'm not. That old bag
can't do nothing to me.
431
00:24:41,021 --> 00:24:45,358
You watch, when we ride in that stupid car,
I'm not gonna say one word the whole way.
432
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:46,693
That's a long ride.
433
00:24:46,694 --> 00:24:51,196
That's right, I'm not gonna talk.
It'll drive them crazy.
434
00:24:51,197 --> 00:24:55,984
Well, listen, I got room on the floor
in my bedroom if you need it, man.
435
00:24:57,287 --> 00:25:01,039
That might work.
Tonight, after lights out.
436
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,208
I'll be up waiting for you.
437
00:25:03,209 --> 00:25:07,162
That's it. Thanks, man.
438
00:25:07,163 --> 00:25:08,664
What would I do without you?
439
00:25:08,665 --> 00:25:11,833
I keep asking myself
that same question.
440
00:25:17,472 --> 00:25:19,173
Bye, Mrs. Watson, bye, Joey.
441
00:25:19,474 --> 00:25:21,175
Goodbye, Stewart.
442
00:25:21,977 --> 00:25:25,061
Well, I didn't want to keep you, I
just wanted to give Joey this angel.
443
00:25:25,062 --> 00:25:29,848
She's been so wonderful in Sunday School,
and she's just an angel herself.
444
00:25:29,849 --> 00:25:33,019
See, Wilona, didn't I tell you
she looked just like Joey?
445
00:25:33,020 --> 00:25:34,804
Look at that smile.
446
00:25:37,325 --> 00:25:39,894
Let me see that.
447
00:25:40,695 --> 00:25:43,529
The only thing about its smile
that looked like Joey to me...
448
00:25:43,530 --> 00:25:46,984
was that the angel had a little
dimple on her right cheek, too.
449
00:25:48,869 --> 00:25:50,786
Thank you, Mrs. Davidson.
450
00:25:50,787 --> 00:25:54,457
You're welcome, child.
We'll miss you in Sunday School.
451
00:25:54,458 --> 00:25:56,659
Let me walk you out.
452
00:26:00,130 --> 00:26:02,097
Joey, what's wrong?
453
00:26:02,098 --> 00:26:05,134
That doll doesn't
look at all like me.
454
00:26:05,135 --> 00:26:08,938
Well, I can see how it
might remind her of you.
455
00:26:08,939 --> 00:26:10,388
Look at that dimple.
456
00:26:10,389 --> 00:26:12,190
She's white.
457
00:26:12,191 --> 00:26:18,229
Well, I can't say she isn't,
but an angel's an angel.
458
00:26:18,230 --> 00:26:20,114
What do you think?
459
00:26:20,115 --> 00:26:25,820
Maybe, but I know that angel's
name is not Joetta Watson.
460
00:26:29,124 --> 00:26:30,707
Lights out, Kenny.
461
00:26:30,708 --> 00:26:32,709
Byron, you come with us.
462
00:26:32,710 --> 00:26:34,194
What for?
463
00:26:35,046 --> 00:26:36,078
Oh, we thought since this is your
last night in Flint for a while...
464
00:26:36,079 --> 00:26:38,298
you might like to
spend it in our room.
465
00:26:38,299 --> 00:26:40,667
You thought what?
466
00:26:40,668 --> 00:26:43,920
Come on, By, you're
bunking with us.
467
00:26:43,921 --> 00:26:45,672
Man!
468
00:26:48,309 --> 00:26:50,209
It wasn't me.
469
00:26:52,512 --> 00:26:53,980
- Come on, go get him, Kenny.
- Okay.
470
00:26:53,981 --> 00:26:55,015
We gotta get on the road right now.
471
00:26:55,016 --> 00:26:56,482
Come on, guys!
472
00:26:56,483 --> 00:27:00,019
Come on, Byron, what you doing?
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
473
00:27:00,020 --> 00:27:04,190
Baby girl, come, come, come.
Let your little sister in there.
474
00:27:06,243 --> 00:27:07,744
I got you, baby. Here we go.
475
00:27:07,745 --> 00:27:09,445
Thank you.
476
00:27:29,048 --> 00:27:30,214
Okay, listen up.
477
00:27:30,215 --> 00:27:33,600
Day One, today, we
left at 5:00 AM...
478
00:27:33,601 --> 00:27:36,937
so by the time we get to Tennessee, the
sun'll be up and we can travel in daylight.
479
00:27:36,938 --> 00:27:38,439
Travel in daylight?
480
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:43,359
Just to be safe. Travelling in the daylight
in the south is what's best for us.
481
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:46,397
We'll drive for six more hours, and
that should get us to Cincinnati.
482
00:27:46,481 --> 00:27:48,983
Mr. Johnson says there's
some clean rest stops there.
483
00:27:48,984 --> 00:27:51,868
Hey, Momma, can I see your journal?
484
00:27:51,869 --> 00:27:53,570
Mm-hm.
485
00:27:54,872 --> 00:27:57,074
Why is that bird trying
to land on a flower?
486
00:27:58,375 --> 00:28:01,077
That's exactly what I said, but
then she got highly offended.
487
00:28:01,328 --> 00:28:05,949
You all just do not know good art,
that is not a bird, it is a bee.
488
00:28:06,083 --> 00:28:10,052
Well, maybe if I scrunch
my eyes real tight.
489
00:28:10,053 --> 00:28:11,136
Scrunch.
490
00:28:11,137 --> 00:28:13,137
Anything else I can get you folks?
491
00:28:13,138 --> 00:28:13,754
No, thank you, we gotta
get on the road.
492
00:28:13,755 --> 00:28:14,840
Where are you headed?
493
00:28:14,841 --> 00:28:16,341
Down to Alabama.
494
00:28:16,342 --> 00:28:19,845
Wow, that is a long ride.
495
00:28:19,846 --> 00:28:21,762
Well, you all be
careful, all right?
496
00:28:21,763 --> 00:28:23,649
- We will, thank you.
- Thank you.
497
00:28:23,650 --> 00:28:25,350
Thank you.
498
00:28:25,518 --> 00:28:28,103
Let's go.
499
00:28:56,597 --> 00:28:57,764
How we gonna work
this record player?
500
00:28:57,765 --> 00:28:58,715
What do you mean?
501
00:28:58,716 --> 00:29:00,132
We're gonna take turns?
502
00:29:00,133 --> 00:29:02,184
Well, we won't be playing
it for quite a bit yet...
503
00:29:02,185 --> 00:29:04,805
because we can carry WKBO all
the way down into Ohio...
504
00:29:05,106 --> 00:29:06,438
and they play pretty good music.
505
00:29:06,439 --> 00:29:08,442
But when we do play it,
we're gonna take turns?
506
00:29:08,443 --> 00:29:10,010
Sure.
507
00:29:10,226 --> 00:29:13,028
Cool. I'm first?
508
00:29:13,029 --> 00:29:16,648
Sure, okay.
We'll go by seniority.
509
00:29:16,649 --> 00:29:17,983
Cool.
510
00:29:19,619 --> 00:29:21,402
Guess you showed them, didn't you?
511
00:29:21,403 --> 00:29:24,039
Boy, they are begging you to
talk, weren't they, Daddio?
512
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,409
- You little...
- I guess being a lipless wonder
can't stop you from talking.
513
00:29:27,961 --> 00:29:30,495
Stop! Stop!
Stop it!
514
00:29:30,496 --> 00:29:34,715
Hey! Hey! I said no nonsense
and I don't mean maybe.
515
00:29:34,716 --> 00:29:36,167
President Kennedy submitted...
516
00:29:36,168 --> 00:29:38,636
Jack you up in Alabama, punk!
517
00:29:38,637 --> 00:29:42,257
Ssh, ssh. Daniel, turn that up.
What'd they say?
518
00:29:42,508 --> 00:29:44,057
to desegregate schools...
519
00:29:44,058 --> 00:29:49,813
allow federal programs to be cut off in any
area where discrimination was practiced.
520
00:29:49,814 --> 00:29:52,431
And establish a community
relations service...
521
00:29:52,432 --> 00:29:55,519
to help local communities
to resolve racial disputes.
522
00:29:55,903 --> 00:29:58,572
The bill is expected to
be voted on this fall.
523
00:29:58,573 --> 00:30:02,226
And in other news,
yesterday in Birmingham...
524
00:30:03,027 --> 00:30:06,813
there was another bombing in
the North Smithfield section.
525
00:30:39,612 --> 00:30:41,814
Time to use the bathroom.
526
00:30:51,539 --> 00:30:53,824
Byron, help Joey put her shoe on.
527
00:31:07,472 --> 00:31:09,040
Oh, nasty.
528
00:31:18,181 --> 00:31:19,265
What's the word on them toilets?
529
00:31:19,266 --> 00:31:21,267
Oh, you like those, huh?
530
00:31:21,268 --> 00:31:23,268
You better get used
to those, Byron.
531
00:31:23,269 --> 00:31:26,273
That's called an outhouse, and
that's what Grandma Sands has.
532
00:31:26,274 --> 00:31:26,974
What?
533
00:31:28,275 --> 00:31:30,157
Uh-huh, that's where you gonna be taking
care of your business for a while, boy.
534
00:31:30,158 --> 00:31:31,777
Wait, let me dig this.
535
00:31:32,078 --> 00:31:34,078
You mean if I gotta use the
bathroom, I gotta go outside?
536
00:31:34,079 --> 00:31:35,781
Into a little, nasty
thing like that?
537
00:31:36,165 --> 00:31:39,201
Well, ain't they got no
sanitation laws down there?
538
00:31:39,502 --> 00:31:42,003
How you gonna have a hole for a
toilet and not get folks sick?
539
00:31:42,004 --> 00:31:44,422
Don't them things attract flies?
540
00:31:44,423 --> 00:31:46,875
Oh, I remember those outhouses.
541
00:31:46,876 --> 00:31:49,176
We used to go visit my
grandma in the country...
542
00:31:49,177 --> 00:31:52,263
and she used to keep a
catalog inside the outhouse.
543
00:31:52,264 --> 00:31:55,214
So when you were done, you
know, doing your business...
544
00:31:55,215 --> 00:31:57,218
you had to rip off a
page from the catalog.
545
00:31:57,219 --> 00:31:59,136
We get the picture, Daniel.
546
00:31:59,137 --> 00:32:02,340
You had to do it, man.
You had to do it.
547
00:32:07,279 --> 00:32:09,564
Dad, now can we play
my favorite song?
548
00:32:09,698 --> 00:32:16,520
Now, just for Kenny Watson of the famous
Watson's, I'll play his favorite song.
549
00:32:18,906 --> 00:32:21,408
All right.
550
00:32:23,243 --> 00:32:26,245
You can run like a rabbit
Fly like a bee
551
00:32:26,246 --> 00:32:28,631
No matter what you do
You'll never get away from me
552
00:32:28,632 --> 00:32:34,169
Because I'm right behind you
Baby right behind you baby
553
00:32:34,170 --> 00:32:38,674
I'm right behind you baby and
You'll never get away from me
554
00:32:39,926 --> 00:32:42,176
You can make up your face
Dye your hair
555
00:32:42,177 --> 00:32:45,264
No matter what you do
Turn around I'll be there
556
00:32:45,265 --> 00:32:50,434
I'm right behind you baby
I'm right behind you baby
557
00:32:50,435 --> 00:32:52,470
Well I'm right behind you baby
558
00:32:58,527 --> 00:33:00,946
Dad, do you know what
you're listening to?
559
00:33:00,947 --> 00:33:04,281
Kenneth, you know
I've been thinking.
560
00:33:04,282 --> 00:33:07,251
I've been thinking about changing
all our names to country names...
561
00:33:07,252 --> 00:33:08,169
when we go back to Michigan.
562
00:33:08,170 --> 00:33:14,124
So, I'll be Clem. You'll be Homer.
563
00:33:14,125 --> 00:33:18,679
And you know, Joey, you have to have a
cute name, your name will be Daisy May.
564
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,715
And you, you'll be Billy Bob.
565
00:33:21,849 --> 00:33:25,802
And your mother, well, uh, your
mother's name can just stay Wilona...
566
00:33:25,803 --> 00:33:31,473
because I don't believe we could find a
more country name than that if we tried.
567
00:33:31,474 --> 00:33:37,696
Yes, well, I hope you can make sure
and get us the whole ways home, Clem.
568
00:33:37,697 --> 00:33:42,101
Elsin' we'll be some
pitiful folks sho nuff'.
569
00:33:44,788 --> 00:33:46,905
Uh-uh, uh-uh.
570
00:33:46,906 --> 00:33:49,458
Civil rights leader Medgar
Evers was gunned down today...
571
00:33:49,459 --> 00:33:52,160
outside his home in
Jackson, Mississippi.
572
00:33:52,461 --> 00:33:55,714
In his arms was a stack of sweatshirts
that read, Jim Crow must go.
573
00:33:55,715 --> 00:33:57,548
What?
574
00:33:57,549 --> 00:33:59,000
My word.
575
00:33:59,001 --> 00:34:04,756
In 1954, Evers wrote an article
called, "Why I Love Mississippi".
576
00:34:05,057 --> 00:34:07,508
Here is an excerpt.
577
00:34:07,509 --> 00:34:13,013
It may sound funny, but I love the south.
I don't choose to live any where else.
578
00:34:13,014 --> 00:34:18,185
There's land here where a man can raise
cattle and I'm going to do that some day.
579
00:34:18,186 --> 00:34:21,856
There are lakes where a man can
sink a hook and fight bass.
580
00:34:21,857 --> 00:34:25,942
There is room here for my
children to play, and grow...
581
00:34:25,943 --> 00:34:30,446
and become good citizens, if
the white man will let them.
582
00:34:59,191 --> 00:35:00,558
Whoo!
583
00:35:00,559 --> 00:35:02,444
When we finally arrived
in Birmingham...
584
00:35:02,445 --> 00:35:04,945
it didn't seem so different
from Flint after all.
585
00:35:04,946 --> 00:35:08,900
There were no outhouses, but I would soon
learn that when you looked a little closer...
586
00:35:08,901 --> 00:35:11,402
it was like you were
in a different world.
587
00:35:11,403 --> 00:35:15,606
Whoo! Babies, we home!
We home!
588
00:35:26,334 --> 00:35:27,968
Oh, you look so good.
589
00:35:27,969 --> 00:35:28,969
You do, too!
590
00:35:28,970 --> 00:35:33,005
Really? Y'all come over here
and give your grandma a hug.
591
00:35:33,006 --> 00:35:34,707
Oh!
592
00:35:36,009 --> 00:35:41,214
Kenneth Bernard Watson, you best acting
so silly. Give Grandma a good hug!
593
00:35:44,151 --> 00:35:45,651
Whoa.
594
00:35:45,652 --> 00:35:48,521
It's so nice to see you,
Grandma Sands.
595
00:35:48,522 --> 00:35:52,908
Oh, 'Lona, look at this child!
596
00:35:52,909 --> 00:35:56,995
If this ain't you!
Look at this baby!
597
00:35:56,996 --> 00:36:00,949
Just as pretty and sweet
as you want to be.
598
00:36:18,383 --> 00:36:22,086
Oh, you calling this a bad child?
599
00:36:22,387 --> 00:36:26,307
This little saint's about ready to go
back north, go to Sunday School...
600
00:36:26,308 --> 00:36:29,427
go home and scrub all
the floors, aren't you?
601
00:36:29,644 --> 00:36:30,927
Yes, ma'am.
602
00:36:31,228 --> 00:36:34,447
Oh, you grew up to be
a fine looking boy.
603
00:36:34,448 --> 00:36:40,620
You was so puny when you was born, you
nearly worried us crazy. Now look at you!
604
00:36:40,621 --> 00:36:44,207
Strapping man!
605
00:36:44,208 --> 00:36:47,794
Oh, we gonna get on just fine.
What you think, By?
606
00:36:47,795 --> 00:36:49,295
Yes, ma'am.
607
00:36:49,296 --> 00:36:55,584
My family, my beautiful,
beautiful family!
608
00:36:55,585 --> 00:37:01,306
Oh, Wilona, family,
this is Mr. Robert.
609
00:37:01,307 --> 00:37:03,008
Hi, I heard...
610
00:37:03,309 --> 00:37:06,712
Y'all come on inside, let me
get you something to eat.
611
00:37:12,150 --> 00:37:15,886
What you staring at?
612
00:37:17,272 --> 00:37:19,274
What'd you expect?
We just got here.
613
00:37:19,275 --> 00:37:21,659
I gotta feel the old bird out.
614
00:37:21,660 --> 00:37:25,897
She probably got a weak heart or something.
I ain't gonna have her death on my hands.
615
00:37:29,201 --> 00:37:31,402
By, By, By.
616
00:37:40,595 --> 00:37:42,797
By?
617
00:37:49,553 --> 00:37:52,805
- Dad?
- Yeah.
618
00:37:57,611 --> 00:37:59,111
Good morning, Kenny.
619
00:37:59,112 --> 00:38:02,113
Morning, Dad, morning, By.
Morning, Mr. Robert.
620
00:38:02,114 --> 00:38:05,116
- Morning.
- Man, you gotta quit drinking so much water.
621
00:38:05,117 --> 00:38:06,619
He sweated up the
whole bed last night.
622
00:38:06,620 --> 00:38:11,622
I ain't sharing a bed with your leaky,
little b... your leaky, little self again.
623
00:38:11,623 --> 00:38:13,125
When y'all boys gonna
get used to the heat?
624
00:38:13,126 --> 00:38:15,126
So, is he too old to hunt?
625
00:38:15,127 --> 00:38:19,631
Well, he never was a good hunting
dog, but he's a great guard dog.
626
00:38:19,632 --> 00:38:22,633
Old Toddy'd give his life for
anybody under this roof.
627
00:38:22,634 --> 00:38:23,717
Should we be worried?
628
00:38:23,718 --> 00:38:27,923
Oh, no, just some folks want
to cause trouble, that's all.
629
00:38:28,223 --> 00:38:29,641
Uh, trouble?
630
00:38:29,642 --> 00:38:34,228
Well, since colored folks moved up here,
started building all these nice homes...
631
00:38:34,229 --> 00:38:36,563
some folks want to harass them.
632
00:38:36,564 --> 00:38:39,650
Now they gotta integrate all the
elementary schools in September...
633
00:38:39,651 --> 00:38:41,653
they trying to destroy
the whole neighborhood.
634
00:38:41,654 --> 00:38:44,655
Chase everybody away.
635
00:38:44,656 --> 00:38:47,156
But you ain't gotta
worry, we got Toddy.
636
00:38:47,157 --> 00:38:48,692
The mailman won't even
come near this house.
637
00:38:48,693 --> 00:38:53,029
He come up in the backyard
one day, Toddy tore him up!
638
00:38:53,914 --> 00:38:55,413
Nothing like a good dog.
639
00:38:55,414 --> 00:38:59,834
You see a little boy with a big
dog, that dog obey that little boy.
640
00:38:59,835 --> 00:39:01,337
You better not mess with him.
641
00:39:01,338 --> 00:39:04,339
Byron, Kenny, I'm gonna teach
you some of Toddy's tricks.
642
00:39:04,340 --> 00:39:07,342
And he gonna love playing with
you boys while you're here.
643
00:39:07,343 --> 00:39:08,259
When do we eat?
644
00:39:08,260 --> 00:39:11,212
When do we eat? You the only one
that hasn't eaten yet, Kenny.
645
00:39:11,213 --> 00:39:15,166
But Grandma and your mother's
in the kitchen, go eat.
646
00:39:15,468 --> 00:39:21,223
Watch this, Toddy, down! Toddy, down!
He thinking about it.
647
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,025
Four hours... good morning, Kenny.
648
00:39:24,026 --> 00:39:26,028
Good morning, Momma.
Good morning, Joey.
649
00:39:26,029 --> 00:39:28,029
Good morning, Grandma Sands.
650
00:39:28,030 --> 00:39:29,231
You sleep all right?
651
00:39:29,232 --> 00:39:31,115
It was really hot.
652
00:39:31,116 --> 00:39:33,450
I know, I was sweating all night.
653
00:39:33,451 --> 00:39:36,987
Well, what about Calla Lilly Lincoln?
I always wondered what she's doing?
654
00:39:36,988 --> 00:39:38,871
'Lona, didn't I write
you about that?
655
00:39:38,872 --> 00:39:42,576
She and her family moved, too.
Lots of folks are leaving town.
656
00:39:43,378 --> 00:39:44,210
And what about you, Momma?
657
00:39:44,211 --> 00:39:47,081
You think you be all right
up here by yourself?
658
00:39:47,082 --> 00:39:49,382
Now you know you can
always move in with us.
659
00:39:49,383 --> 00:39:51,668
Child, you know I
ain't going nowhere.
660
00:39:51,669 --> 00:39:55,838
This is my home. Ain't nobody
gonna run me out of here.
661
00:39:55,839 --> 00:39:59,058
Plus, I got Robert to look after.
662
00:39:59,059 --> 00:40:01,060
Robert...
663
00:40:01,061 --> 00:40:07,267
Mr. Robert seems like a
nice enough man, but...
664
00:40:08,068 --> 00:40:10,185
I was wondering when we
was gonna get to that.
665
00:40:10,186 --> 00:40:16,274
Robert and I have been good friends
since right after y'all left for Flint.
666
00:40:16,275 --> 00:40:18,527
Good friends, but when
did he move in here?
667
00:40:18,528 --> 00:40:21,028
Wilona Sands, what is it
that's bothering you?
668
00:40:21,029 --> 00:40:23,030
Why don't you just say
what's on your mind?
669
00:40:23,031 --> 00:40:27,501
I just don't understand why you
never told me he was living here.
670
00:40:27,502 --> 00:40:29,121
I mean, where's his house?
671
00:40:29,122 --> 00:40:34,208
'Lona, things are different from
what they were when you left here.
672
00:40:34,209 --> 00:40:36,343
Everything is changing.
673
00:40:36,344 --> 00:40:42,666
Your daddy's been gone for almost 20 years
now and Robert is my dearest friend.
674
00:40:43,468 --> 00:40:45,469
I like having him around.
675
00:40:45,470 --> 00:40:50,273
He protects this house,
him and that dog.
676
00:40:50,274 --> 00:40:53,894
Mr. Robert's gonna show us around downtown,
and Joey and Kenny, you're coming.
677
00:40:54,195 --> 00:40:59,200
So, Kenny, finish up and go get dressed, and
leave these two alone, let them catch up.
678
00:40:59,201 --> 00:41:02,202
Hurry up, go, go, go!
Come on!
679
00:41:02,203 --> 00:41:04,905
This is good.
Y'all have a nice time now!
680
00:41:11,327 --> 00:41:12,828
It's just gonna take
me a little while.
681
00:41:12,829 --> 00:41:15,531
Oh, come on!
682
00:41:16,749 --> 00:41:19,835
Hey, what's that smell?
683
00:41:19,836 --> 00:41:24,840
Fried onions, burgers, hot
dogs and french fries.
684
00:41:24,841 --> 00:41:29,345
Hot dogs? Let's go!
They smell good.
685
00:41:38,987 --> 00:41:42,073
Hi, my family's right behind us, so
we should have five hot dogs, please.
686
00:41:42,074 --> 00:41:46,194
And can we have a side of french
fries with each hot dog? Thank you.
687
00:41:46,278 --> 00:41:48,446
Y'all aren't from
around here, are you?
688
00:41:48,447 --> 00:41:50,481
Was it my accent that gave me way?
689
00:41:51,115 --> 00:41:52,781
See, we don't serve your kind here.
690
00:41:52,782 --> 00:41:54,618
You're gonna have to go around
back to get something to eat.
691
00:41:54,619 --> 00:41:56,287
Now y'all better get on.
692
00:41:56,587 --> 00:41:57,587
What?
693
00:41:57,588 --> 00:42:00,173
Sorry, ma'am, these boys,
they're from Michigan.
694
00:42:00,174 --> 00:42:03,175
They don't know how we do things down
here in Birmingham. Come on, y'all.
695
00:42:03,176 --> 00:42:04,378
Why? I want a hot dog.
696
00:42:04,679 --> 00:42:06,931
Let's go, boy, you heard
Mr. Robert. Let's go, now!
697
00:42:06,932 --> 00:42:09,015
But she said go around back.
698
00:42:09,016 --> 00:42:11,717
I want a hot dog right here,
right now. What's the problem?
699
00:42:11,718 --> 00:42:14,520
Boy, you better get up off your seat.
We done told you nice. Now get out!
700
00:42:14,521 --> 00:42:18,057
Margaret, you don't need to talk to them
like that. They're not from around here.
701
00:42:18,058 --> 00:42:21,059
Please, outsiders come around
all the time startin' trouble.
702
00:42:21,060 --> 00:42:24,097
Now you go on before I have to call
the police and have you arrested.
703
00:42:24,197 --> 00:42:28,201
I was so confused. I couldn't
figure out why the lady was so mad.
704
00:42:28,202 --> 00:42:30,351
What did we do to her?
705
00:42:35,958 --> 00:42:37,442
Come on!
706
00:42:39,545 --> 00:42:42,130
Man, I'm going back there and I'm
throwing a rock through their window!
707
00:42:42,131 --> 00:42:44,131
If Buphead were down here,
we'd tear that store up!
708
00:42:44,132 --> 00:42:46,133
Byron! Violence is not the answer.
709
00:42:46,134 --> 00:42:47,136
I don't care, that was wrong!
710
00:42:47,137 --> 00:42:48,337
Well, you better care!
711
00:42:49,138 --> 00:42:51,637
This is for real down here and if you don't
follow the rules, you can get seriously hurt!
712
00:42:51,638 --> 00:42:55,342
So while we're down here,
follow the rules, period!
713
00:42:55,476 --> 00:42:57,843
And Kenny, you just need to know what
the rules are and you'll be okay.
714
00:42:57,844 --> 00:43:00,245
You just stay out of white
folks' way, you be all right.
715
00:43:00,348 --> 00:43:03,349
Man, how do I know if I'm in their way,
when I just wanted to buy a hot dog?
716
00:43:03,350 --> 00:43:04,852
Well, you'll get used to it.
717
00:43:04,853 --> 00:43:06,353
I don't think so.
718
00:43:06,354 --> 00:43:11,358
Mr. Robert, where can we go to fish and swim
and do something to pick up our spirits?
719
00:43:11,359 --> 00:43:14,561
Great minds think alike, Daniel.
720
00:43:19,199 --> 00:43:23,403
She was the prettiest little thing. She
just went screaming like a little pig.
721
00:43:24,204 --> 00:43:28,040
I thought they gave
me the wrong baby.
722
00:43:28,041 --> 00:43:31,626
Oh, here they are.
Did y'all have a good time?
723
00:43:31,627 --> 00:43:35,629
Uh, we had a little incident, but Mr. Robert
showed us where they fish and swim...
724
00:43:35,630 --> 00:43:38,133
- which seemed to help.
- An incident?
725
00:43:38,134 --> 00:43:41,101
Robert, you didn't take them down
to Collier's Landing, did you?
726
00:43:41,102 --> 00:43:45,807
Well, now, Gloria, you know I'm not gonna take
your grandkids anywhere near Collier's Landing.
727
00:43:46,108 --> 00:43:49,111
I know you'd never forgive me
if these kids was to get hurt.
728
00:43:49,112 --> 00:43:50,611
You got that right.
729
00:43:50,612 --> 00:43:56,317
Children, now you remember, stay
away from Collier's Landing.
730
00:43:56,618 --> 00:44:00,121
That whirlpool in that water
is dangerous, you hear me?
731
00:44:00,122 --> 00:44:02,406
What's a Wooh Pooh?
732
00:44:02,407 --> 00:44:04,959
Hi, Marlene, how are you?
733
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,662
Children, come on over here
and say hi to your cousins.
734
00:44:07,796 --> 00:44:10,129
They've been waiting to meet you.
735
00:44:10,130 --> 00:44:11,331
Hi.
736
00:44:12,633 --> 00:44:17,838
Why don't y'all go play down by those swings
I had Robert put in before you got here.
737
00:44:20,507 --> 00:44:22,008
- What incident?
- Robert, what did you do?
738
00:44:22,009 --> 00:44:24,511
- Well, we were just walking.
- Down at that diner.
739
00:44:29,767 --> 00:44:32,267
What happened to your leg?
740
00:44:32,268 --> 00:44:35,220
Oh, I got hurt during the marches.
741
00:44:35,238 --> 00:44:38,323
You marched? I saw that on TV.
742
00:44:38,324 --> 00:44:39,323
What were you doing out there?
743
00:44:39,324 --> 00:44:42,494
We were fighting for an equal
education, an equal life.
744
00:44:42,495 --> 00:44:44,997
As Junior and Sarah were telling
us about how they marched...
745
00:44:44,998 --> 00:44:47,367
I could vividly picture
what they went through.
746
00:44:47,368 --> 00:44:54,121
Whoo! Good morning, boys and girls!
It's Pauly the "Catman" Carter on WENN.
747
00:44:54,122 --> 00:44:56,090
Make sure you grab
your toothbrush...
748
00:44:56,091 --> 00:44:58,091
head on down to the party
at Kelly Ingram Park.
749
00:44:58,092 --> 00:45:02,013
Why bring your toothbrush you ask?
Cuz lunch will be served!
750
00:45:02,014 --> 00:45:04,014
Hey, wait, I want to march, too.
751
00:45:04,015 --> 00:45:06,132
Let me go today, see how
everything turns out.
752
00:45:06,133 --> 00:45:09,337
You can go tomorrow if
everything goes okay.
753
00:45:19,563 --> 00:45:23,733
What in the world?
754
00:45:31,491 --> 00:45:36,496
Students! When I turn my back, for those of
you who want to leave, I won't stop you.
755
00:45:36,497 --> 00:45:40,049
And since I won't
see you walk out...
756
00:45:40,050 --> 00:45:44,621
I won't be able to mark you absent.
757
00:46:02,488 --> 00:46:05,238
Everybody was so excited
about the march...
758
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,192
that we couldn't keep the
kids away, not even Sarah.
759
00:46:13,164 --> 00:46:15,649
All right, amen.
760
00:46:15,950 --> 00:46:22,122
As Dr. Martin Luther King
has said countless times.
761
00:46:22,123 --> 00:46:26,510
Non-violence is the
key in the fight...
762
00:46:26,511 --> 00:46:29,213
to break the bondage of oppression.
763
00:46:29,597 --> 00:46:31,080
Amen.
764
00:46:31,131 --> 00:46:37,520
In Birmingham, that oppression has
manifested a segregation in our schools...
765
00:46:37,521 --> 00:46:41,391
our stores and our lunch counters.
766
00:46:41,641 --> 00:46:46,278
And when the world sees
you walking in peace...
767
00:46:46,279 --> 00:46:50,565
praying for justice,
segregation will fall.
768
00:46:58,207 --> 00:47:04,329
When Birmingham becomes more equal, the
entire country becomes more equal.
769
00:47:04,330 --> 00:47:08,534
You have the power
to make that happen!
770
00:47:14,339 --> 00:47:18,476
Now when you exit the doors,
we will walk north of 6th Avenue...
771
00:47:18,477 --> 00:47:22,429
and you will go out
in groups of 50.
772
00:47:24,482 --> 00:47:30,019
Now the goal of this march
is to get arrested.
773
00:47:30,020 --> 00:47:36,576
Now when the police approach, you
go with him in peace, no violence.
774
00:47:36,577 --> 00:47:40,579
Our progress in gaining freedom
depends on your ability...
775
00:47:40,580 --> 00:47:43,081
to refrain from any
acts of violence.
776
00:47:43,082 --> 00:47:47,587
You must remove anything that might
appear to be a weapon. Switchblades...
777
00:47:47,588 --> 00:47:52,339
No knives, even a fancy comb or a nail
file could be considered a weapon.
778
00:47:52,340 --> 00:47:56,343
So be sure to throw it all here in
this barrel in front of the church.
779
00:47:56,344 --> 00:47:58,547
Are you ready to move for justice?
780
00:47:58,848 --> 00:48:00,348
Yeah!
781
00:48:00,349 --> 00:48:01,850
Let me hear you move for justice!
782
00:48:01,851 --> 00:48:05,637
All right, ain't gonna let
nobody turn me around!
783
00:48:05,638 --> 00:48:09,057
Turn me around! Turn me around!
784
00:48:09,058 --> 00:48:12,726
Ain't gonna let nobody
turn me around!
785
00:48:12,727 --> 00:48:16,313
Turn me around!
Turn me around!
786
00:48:16,314 --> 00:48:21,235
Ain't gonna let nobody turn me around!
I'm gonna keep on walking.
787
00:48:21,236 --> 00:48:22,736
Thank you, darling.
788
00:48:22,737 --> 00:48:25,489
My brother!
Thank you, brother!
789
00:48:25,490 --> 00:48:30,026
Now! Right now, my brothers and sisters!
Now we're ready.
790
00:48:30,211 --> 00:48:32,580
I couldn't believe
these were my cousins.
791
00:48:32,581 --> 00:48:37,584
They'd experienced things
I'd only ever seen on TV.
792
00:49:04,444 --> 00:49:07,362
That was Day One.
D-Day.
793
00:49:07,363 --> 00:49:11,199
Everybody was talking about how
successful the marches were.
794
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,201
Like 1,000 kids went to jail.
795
00:49:14,202 --> 00:49:15,753
Junior and I didn't get arrested.
796
00:49:15,754 --> 00:49:19,005
There were so many kids from all
over the Birmingham area...
797
00:49:19,006 --> 00:49:21,292
that not everybody could
get arrested in one day.
798
00:49:21,293 --> 00:49:24,879
So Sarah and I went back the next
day, Naomi even came with us.
799
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,346
Our whole class was there.
800
00:49:26,347 --> 00:49:27,916
That was Double D-Day.
801
00:49:51,237 --> 00:49:55,574
Then... everything went wild.
802
00:50:00,330 --> 00:50:03,165
They turned the fire hoses
and the dogs on us.
803
00:50:31,659 --> 00:50:33,110
Weren't you scared?
804
00:50:33,111 --> 00:50:35,611
Our freedom was more
important than anything.
805
00:50:35,612 --> 00:50:38,282
You keep saying that.
What do you mean?
806
00:50:38,283 --> 00:50:40,283
I mean, we want to be equal.
807
00:50:40,284 --> 00:50:42,284
We want everything
the white kids get.
808
00:50:42,285 --> 00:50:46,790
We get their old books. We get their old uniforms
for sports when they get everything new.
809
00:50:46,791 --> 00:50:49,793
They're always gonna be ahead,
because they get everything first.
810
00:50:49,794 --> 00:50:51,794
But people got hurt.
811
00:50:51,795 --> 00:50:55,215
Sometimes people get hurt in a fight, but
you still gotta do what you gotta do.
812
00:50:55,216 --> 00:50:57,099
Did you end up in jail?
813
00:50:57,100 --> 00:50:58,099
For almost two weeks.
814
00:50:58,100 --> 00:50:59,885
- Two weeks?
- Well, what about school?
815
00:51:00,053 --> 00:51:01,387
What did your parents do?
816
00:51:01,388 --> 00:51:02,138
My parents supported us.
817
00:51:02,139 --> 00:51:05,108
They were kind of proud of
us, so were our teachers.
818
00:51:05,109 --> 00:51:07,727
Proud of you for going to jail?
819
00:51:09,396 --> 00:51:12,229
I could see the wheels
turning in Byron's head.
820
00:51:12,230 --> 00:51:16,451
If he could make Momma and Daddy proud of
him for going to jail, he was gonna try.
821
00:51:16,452 --> 00:51:19,119
So what's the story now?
Are you all still marching?
822
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:23,123
We'll see. Some folks are still trying
to keep us out of their schools.
823
00:51:23,124 --> 00:51:25,076
But the law now says they have to.
824
00:51:25,077 --> 00:51:29,464
The law don't matter to some folks. They try
to keep us out, we'll just march again.
825
00:51:29,465 --> 00:51:33,501
Cool. I'd go out
there with you guys.
826
00:51:35,804 --> 00:51:38,506
Slow down, stay together now.
Come on.
827
00:51:45,263 --> 00:51:48,316
Good afternoon, I'd like four
tickets to "To Kill a Mockingbird".
828
00:51:48,317 --> 00:51:51,518
One dollar.
829
00:51:52,319 --> 00:51:56,239
Thank you. You know where
the entrance is, right?
830
00:51:56,240 --> 00:51:58,491
Yeah, I believe I do.
831
00:51:58,492 --> 00:52:03,947
I'm sorry, you know, if it was up to
me, we'd all go through the same door.
832
00:52:04,331 --> 00:52:05,748
Yeah, I understand.
833
00:52:05,749 --> 00:52:07,834
Well, enjoy the show.
834
00:52:07,835 --> 00:52:09,335
Thank you.
835
00:52:09,336 --> 00:52:12,338
Wait, this way, this
way, right around here.
836
00:52:12,339 --> 00:52:16,041
And stay together, okay?
837
00:52:16,342 --> 00:52:18,427
It's this door right here.
838
00:52:18,428 --> 00:52:22,297
Here, let me get ahead of you.
Come on. Come on.
839
00:52:22,298 --> 00:52:24,216
There you go.
840
00:52:24,217 --> 00:52:27,887
Come on. Come on, boy.
841
00:52:35,277 --> 00:52:37,778
Down here.
842
00:52:37,779 --> 00:52:39,480
I think we're right here.
843
00:52:46,404 --> 00:52:49,106
You and me can hare this one.
844
00:52:52,910 --> 00:52:54,409
I couldn't understand
why white folks...
845
00:52:54,410 --> 00:52:57,731
would put colored people right over their
heads when they treated them so mean.
846
00:52:58,833 --> 00:53:01,335
I know what you're thinking.
Don't do it.
847
00:53:19,936 --> 00:53:21,604
That's the film.
848
00:53:22,906 --> 00:53:24,140
Wait a minute.
849
00:53:31,864 --> 00:53:34,416
You know, by the time you wake
up, I'll be halfway home.
850
00:53:34,417 --> 00:53:35,917
Yeah.
851
00:53:35,918 --> 00:53:38,837
So I'm gonna need you to be the man
of this household while I'm gone.
852
00:53:38,838 --> 00:53:43,925
Can you do that for me?
I know you can, but will you?
853
00:53:43,926 --> 00:53:45,259
What do you mean?
854
00:53:45,260 --> 00:53:47,845
I mean, I don't like leaving my family
down here in the segregated south...
855
00:53:47,846 --> 00:53:50,297
not without me, but I
don't have a choice.
856
00:53:50,298 --> 00:53:53,498
I gotta go to work and your mother wants
to spend some time with her mother.
857
00:53:53,551 --> 00:53:54,334
So what do you need from me?
858
00:53:54,635 --> 00:53:57,888
I want you to think before you act.
859
00:53:57,889 --> 00:54:00,892
Because your actions have
real consequences down here.
860
00:54:00,893 --> 00:54:04,895
You are the one I
know I can count on.
861
00:54:04,896 --> 00:54:08,898
Your mother and I are hard on you, because
we see the potential that you have.
862
00:54:08,899 --> 00:54:12,736
You know, if you worked at it, you'd
be just as good as Kenny is at school.
863
00:54:12,737 --> 00:54:19,776
Kenny is just a kid, so, please,
keep an eye on him for me.
864
00:54:20,577 --> 00:54:24,030
I think Birmingham's been
hard on him, all right?
865
00:54:25,332 --> 00:54:28,618
All right.
866
00:54:34,006 --> 00:54:36,840
I couldn't believe how
fast things had changed.
867
00:54:36,841 --> 00:54:39,843
Now Dad was trusting
Byron to look after me?
868
00:54:39,844 --> 00:54:42,547
I had to show them I could
take care of myself.
869
00:54:42,848 --> 00:54:45,550
And that I wasn't just
Poindexter the punk.
870
00:54:52,357 --> 00:54:55,359
Oh, man, Collier's Landing!
Let's go!
871
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:56,860
Uh-uh, Kenny!
872
00:54:56,861 --> 00:55:00,364
You heard what Grandma Sands said about
that little boy who got lost in the water.
873
00:55:00,365 --> 00:55:03,067
Even Sarah said it isn't safe.
874
00:55:03,368 --> 00:55:05,368
What is that thing called
that she said got him?
875
00:55:05,369 --> 00:55:07,572
Didn't you hear what
she said, Joey?
876
00:55:07,872 --> 00:55:09,756
She said he got caught
by the Wooh Pooh.
877
00:55:09,757 --> 00:55:11,090
Is that a fish?
878
00:55:11,091 --> 00:55:13,093
Uh-uh, you know who Winnie
the Pooh is, don't you?
879
00:55:13,094 --> 00:55:14,093
Mm-hm.
880
00:55:14,094 --> 00:55:15,595
Well, the Wooh Pooh is
Winnie's evil twin brother.
881
00:55:15,596 --> 00:55:18,930
Don't no one ever write about him, because
they don't want to scare y'all kids.
882
00:55:18,931 --> 00:55:24,135
And what he does, is hide in the water
and snatches stupid kids down with him.
883
00:55:24,136 --> 00:55:28,107
Now if Kenny wants to take his stupid, little
behind down there and get snatched, let him.
884
00:55:28,108 --> 00:55:30,107
Even our cousin said they
don't swim out there.
885
00:55:30,108 --> 00:55:33,812
But Byron, what if the Wooh Pooh
comes down to where we're going?
886
00:55:33,980 --> 00:55:35,946
Can't he swim down there
and get people, too?
887
00:55:35,947 --> 00:55:39,017
No, the Wooh Pooh don't
come to no public beaches.
888
00:55:39,318 --> 00:55:41,319
What you gonna do, punk?
889
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,373
Come on, Kenny, you know
what Grandma Sands said.
890
00:55:44,374 --> 00:55:47,876
Our cousins said to
be careful here, too.
891
00:55:47,877 --> 00:55:50,577
Uh, I'm going to Collier's Landing.
892
00:55:50,578 --> 00:55:53,881
And I'm not scared of no Wooh
Pooh, and I'm not a scaredy cat.
893
00:55:53,882 --> 00:55:57,719
Go on, I don't need you looking
out for me all the time.
894
00:55:57,720 --> 00:55:59,921
Fine, suit yourself.
895
00:56:00,722 --> 00:56:03,291
I'm not playing!
896
00:56:03,675 --> 00:56:08,679
I'mma show you!
Ain't nothing to be scared of.
897
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,181
I'm going to Collier's Landing.
898
00:56:12,766 --> 00:56:15,551
You're a couple of jive squares!
899
00:57:36,679 --> 00:57:39,148
Momma! M...
900
00:57:39,149 --> 00:57:40,633
Momma!
901
00:58:22,056 --> 00:58:25,759
Come on, Kenny!
Come on.
902
00:58:33,066 --> 00:58:34,267
Breathe, little brother!
903
00:58:39,322 --> 00:58:42,274
Stop, stop!
Get off of me! Stop!
904
00:58:42,576 --> 00:58:44,778
Kenny! Kenny!
905
00:58:50,166 --> 00:58:52,117
By?
906
00:58:56,505 --> 00:58:58,339
The Wooh Pooh's real.
907
00:59:00,226 --> 00:59:03,228
- I saw it.
- Ssh.
908
00:59:03,229 --> 00:59:05,431
Just catch your breath.
909
00:59:07,233 --> 00:59:08,934
Catch your breath.
910
00:59:25,783 --> 00:59:27,167
How you feeling?
911
00:59:27,168 --> 00:59:28,952
Tired.
912
00:59:33,257 --> 00:59:35,258
Hey, By?
913
00:59:35,259 --> 00:59:38,462
Thanks for not telling Momma
about Collier's Landing.
914
00:59:38,762 --> 00:59:40,379
No problem, baby bro.
915
00:59:40,380 --> 00:59:45,668
You probably will be tired all day,
so I'd take it easy if I were you.
916
00:59:47,471 --> 00:59:49,272
Yeah.
917
00:59:49,273 --> 00:59:53,275
Don't worry, I'll cover for you.
918
00:59:53,276 --> 00:59:58,980
They would blame me anyway, so it's in
my best interest to look out for you.
919
00:59:58,981 --> 01:00:04,903
And when they ask, I'll tell them I tired
you out running you around the lake.
920
01:00:06,289 --> 01:00:10,992
Now I'm going back to sleep.
Those crickets kept me up all night.
921
01:00:12,294 --> 01:00:16,498
Hey, By? You ready to go home?
922
01:00:18,300 --> 01:00:20,801
I don't know.
923
01:00:20,802 --> 01:00:23,804
I may be able to do
some good down here.
924
01:00:23,805 --> 01:00:25,306
What?
925
01:00:25,307 --> 01:00:29,310
You'd stay down here,
even if you didn't have to?
926
01:00:29,311 --> 01:00:31,011
I don't know.
927
01:00:32,313 --> 01:00:38,318
But... living down here is much
harder than living at home.
928
01:00:38,319 --> 01:00:41,972
This is your home...
you gotta make it work.
929
01:00:46,327 --> 01:00:49,861
I'm glad Momma left here
and never came back.
930
01:00:49,862 --> 01:00:53,115
I hope it's a long time before
we come back down here again.
931
01:00:58,421 --> 01:01:00,539
You think you're coming
home with us?
932
01:01:02,792 --> 01:01:04,493
We'll see.
933
01:01:24,529 --> 01:01:30,984
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
934
01:01:30,985 --> 01:01:37,991
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
935
01:01:37,992 --> 01:01:43,713
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
936
01:01:43,714 --> 01:01:50,719
Let it shine let it shine
Let it shine
937
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:56,809
Everywhere I go
I'm gonna let it shine
938
01:01:56,810 --> 01:02:01,014
Let it shine let it shine
Let it shine
939
01:02:02,399 --> 01:02:03,399
Mommy!
940
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,685
There's my singer!
You were wonderful!
941
01:02:06,686 --> 01:02:09,188
Thank you.
Guess what?
942
01:02:09,189 --> 01:02:10,688
What?
943
01:02:10,689 --> 01:02:13,892
They asked me to sing and help during their
first Holy Run Youth Service on September 15th.
944
01:02:14,193 --> 01:02:15,193
Oh.
945
01:02:15,194 --> 01:02:17,194
They need to know, 'cause I
have to make sure I practice...
946
01:02:17,195 --> 01:02:19,198
all the songs and know
how to run service.
947
01:02:19,199 --> 01:02:20,198
Mm-hm.
948
01:02:20,199 --> 01:02:21,416
So can I, Mommy?
Please?
949
01:02:21,417 --> 01:02:26,371
Well, we were supposed to be home in time
to get ready for school by the 17th.
950
01:02:26,372 --> 01:02:28,372
Oh, Mommy, we can miss one day.
951
01:02:28,373 --> 01:02:32,377
I love this church. It's even
better than our church in Flint.
952
01:02:32,378 --> 01:02:35,379
I know, I miss this
old church, too.
953
01:02:35,380 --> 01:02:36,880
So?
954
01:02:36,881 --> 01:02:37,882
I'll talk to your daddy.
955
01:02:37,883 --> 01:02:39,383
Yay!
956
01:02:39,384 --> 01:02:42,885
Wait, what? I don't want to spend one
more hot day down here than I have to.
957
01:02:42,886 --> 01:02:45,089
- Kenny.
- Look how happy the little squirt is.
958
01:02:51,395 --> 01:02:52,395
Come on, we all right.
959
01:02:52,396 --> 01:02:54,097
- We all right.
- Down we go.
960
01:03:02,406 --> 01:03:04,408
You think we're okay to walk home?
961
01:03:04,409 --> 01:03:06,409
Oh, don't worry.
962
01:03:06,410 --> 01:03:08,412
Wherever that was, it's in the
opposite direction of where we headed.
963
01:03:08,413 --> 01:03:13,415
Yeah, we'll be all right.
Sound like it was over in Smithfield.
964
01:03:13,416 --> 01:03:16,118
I hope the Shores are all right.
965
01:03:16,419 --> 01:03:17,419
The Shores?
966
01:03:17,420 --> 01:03:19,421
Yes, baby.
967
01:03:19,422 --> 01:03:21,624
He's a lawyer.
968
01:03:21,924 --> 01:03:25,427
And the white folks are mad about all the
work he's been doing in the courts...
969
01:03:25,428 --> 01:03:28,431
to get them five colored
children into the white schools.
970
01:03:28,432 --> 01:03:30,431
Is that near our house?
971
01:03:30,432 --> 01:03:32,934
It's not too close.
Don't worry now.
972
01:03:32,935 --> 01:03:38,439
Oh, so much been going on
this year, we've been lucky.
973
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,941
Pray that wherever that explosion
was, though, nobody got hurt.
974
01:03:41,942 --> 01:03:44,445
Okay, Momma, can we please
change the subject?
975
01:03:44,446 --> 01:03:46,948
We don't need to be talking about these
things in front of the children.
976
01:03:46,949 --> 01:03:51,651
Well, you can't protect them from it.
They live in it, too.
977
01:03:51,952 --> 01:03:54,654
That's why it took me so
long to come back down here.
978
01:03:54,955 --> 01:03:59,459
But you're here now.
979
01:04:06,383 --> 01:04:10,469
By 11:30, there are more than
200,000 filling the Mall...
980
01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:13,689
a crowd that is bigger than the
most optimistic forecasts.
981
01:04:13,690 --> 01:04:18,894
This is amazing. Look at all
those people out there.
982
01:04:18,895 --> 01:04:23,482
It's so wonderful to see all of these
young people, I mean, this entire year.
983
01:04:23,483 --> 01:04:29,488
Stand up and demand something
more for themselves.
984
01:04:29,489 --> 01:04:31,572
I am so proud.
985
01:04:31,573 --> 01:04:35,993
I think it's wonderful, too.
I just worry for their safety.
986
01:04:35,994 --> 01:04:38,579
Especially for the
younger children.
987
01:04:38,580 --> 01:04:41,047
I wouldn't want my babies
out there marching.
988
01:04:41,048 --> 01:04:44,635
Now you can't stop young folk once
they get an idea in they head.
989
01:04:44,636 --> 01:04:46,921
Especially when they know
they on the side of right.
990
01:04:46,922 --> 01:04:49,005
I think it's cool Junior,
Sarah and them marched.
991
01:04:49,006 --> 01:04:50,007
I would have gone out there.
992
01:04:50,008 --> 01:04:55,595
Anywhere trouble is, is where
you want to be, Byron.
993
01:04:55,729 --> 01:04:57,230
What about you, Kenny?
994
01:04:57,231 --> 01:04:59,349
You think you would
have wanted to protest?
995
01:04:59,650 --> 01:05:05,155
Mm, mm, all of them people talking about
making the country better for us.
996
01:05:05,156 --> 01:05:09,727
Ah, it just reminds me
how far I have come.
997
01:05:09,776 --> 01:05:14,279
Y'all have no idea how
lucky you all are.
998
01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:17,366
When I was growing
up in the country...
999
01:05:17,367 --> 01:05:22,371
we had to be up in the dark of
morning before the sun come up...
1000
01:05:22,372 --> 01:05:27,376
to start plowing the dirt to
plant the crops we was growing.
1001
01:05:27,377 --> 01:05:32,513
My Daddy was so poor, we
ain't even had a mule.
1002
01:05:32,514 --> 01:05:33,598
I was the mule.
1003
01:05:33,599 --> 01:05:34,800
Oh, Momma...
1004
01:05:35,100 --> 01:05:36,601
Well, it's true.
1005
01:05:36,602 --> 01:05:40,722
Your momma don't know nothing about no hard
work, either, growing up here in Birmingham.
1006
01:05:40,723 --> 01:05:44,225
Mm, it was hard in them days.
1007
01:05:44,226 --> 01:05:51,014
And now, seeing all the changes everybody's
trying to make so that we can all live better.
1008
01:05:53,317 --> 01:05:56,520
Mm, it's a beautiful thing.
1009
01:05:58,322 --> 01:06:00,322
I tried to picture Grandma
Sands with a plow on her back.
1010
01:06:00,323 --> 01:06:05,329
And I'll I could think was, if this woman
was so strong, what's wrong with me?
1011
01:06:05,330 --> 01:06:09,032
Instead of feeling proud,
I just felt scared.
1012
01:06:20,810 --> 01:06:22,761
You're not going to Sunday School?
1013
01:06:22,762 --> 01:06:25,347
I'm going to church with Momma
instead of Sunday School.
1014
01:06:25,348 --> 01:06:28,351
I'mma walk Joey over there and come
back and change before church.
1015
01:06:28,352 --> 01:06:31,553
Oh, so you a big boy now.
1016
01:06:32,354 --> 01:06:35,356
I don't know what a
shoulder shrug means.
1017
01:06:35,357 --> 01:06:36,858
I guess so.
1018
01:06:36,859 --> 01:06:38,560
Come here.
1019
01:06:39,862 --> 01:06:42,747
I know y'all getting
ready to leave.
1020
01:06:42,748 --> 01:06:46,334
I want you to know I'm really
gonna miss you, Kenny.
1021
01:06:46,335 --> 01:06:49,836
I have enjoyed our visit.
1022
01:06:49,837 --> 01:06:54,624
Maybe next time, I'll come visit
you, up there in Michigan.
1023
01:06:56,427 --> 01:07:00,497
Grandma, what was it that you said was
in the water at Collier's Landing?
1024
01:07:00,632 --> 01:07:03,717
What, the whirlpool?
1025
01:07:03,718 --> 01:07:04,718
Yeah.
1026
01:07:04,719 --> 01:07:09,256
Oh, yes, the whirlpool.
You gotta stay away from that.
1027
01:07:09,557 --> 01:07:10,723
I'm all set, Grandma Sands.
1028
01:07:10,724 --> 01:07:12,725
Well, not quite.
1029
01:07:12,726 --> 01:07:18,765
I got you a little something for
your special day at our church.
1030
01:07:33,496 --> 01:07:35,197
Heels?
1031
01:07:36,499 --> 01:07:39,501
I love them!
Thank you, Grandma Sands!
1032
01:07:39,502 --> 01:07:41,503
Oh, you're welcome, sweetie!
1033
01:07:41,504 --> 01:07:45,708
I never understood why girls
got so excited over shoes.
1034
01:07:47,426 --> 01:07:51,228
But I had to admit, those
heels made Joey shine.
1035
01:07:51,229 --> 01:07:52,813
Let's see.
1036
01:07:52,814 --> 01:07:55,816
Oh, you look good, Joey.
1037
01:07:55,817 --> 01:07:59,970
All right now, but come here,
let me fix that slip, it's hanging.
1038
01:08:02,741 --> 01:08:08,829
All right, okay! Y'all better
get going so you won't be late.
1039
01:08:08,830 --> 01:08:11,531
I'd like some sugar!
1040
01:08:15,836 --> 01:08:16,786
- Go!
- Bye!
1041
01:08:16,787 --> 01:08:18,538
Bye!
1042
01:08:27,715 --> 01:08:30,716
- Hey, Joey!
- Huh?
1043
01:08:30,717 --> 01:08:32,718
You look really pretty.
1044
01:08:32,719 --> 01:08:36,556
And I'm sure you're gonna do good in the
choir helping with the service today.
1045
01:08:36,557 --> 01:08:39,091
Thanks, Kenny.
1046
01:08:41,894 --> 01:08:43,645
As Joey caught up
with her friends...
1047
01:08:43,646 --> 01:08:45,646
I couldn't help but think
that the three of them...
1048
01:08:45,647 --> 01:08:49,234
made up the red, white and
blue of the American flag.
1049
01:08:54,039 --> 01:08:55,457
Can you last one more night?
1050
01:08:55,458 --> 01:08:57,708
Just one more.
1051
01:08:57,709 --> 01:09:00,545
Can you believe I'm ready
to get back to Flint, too?
1052
01:09:00,546 --> 01:09:01,779
Really?
1053
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:03,581
Why do you think I left
here in the first place?
1054
01:09:03,582 --> 01:09:08,753
I couldn't take that "colored water
fountain, back-of-the-bus way of living".
1055
01:09:08,754 --> 01:09:12,338
I didn't want my children
to grow up like that.
1056
01:09:12,339 --> 01:09:13,223
What about Grandma?
1057
01:09:13,224 --> 01:09:15,642
She didn't want to leave.
1058
01:09:15,643 --> 01:09:20,647
She's always said, this is her home
and no one is gonna drive her out.
1059
01:09:20,648 --> 01:09:25,636
She's... stronger
than I am, I guess.
1060
01:09:26,687 --> 01:09:28,855
I don't like it here, either.
1061
01:09:28,856 --> 01:09:33,442
But you had fun with Grandma Sands
and Joetta made some good friends.
1062
01:09:33,443 --> 01:09:35,778
- Hey, hey!
- Dad?
1063
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:38,579
Daniel, what are you doing here?
1064
01:09:38,580 --> 01:09:40,082
I didn't think you'd be
back until tonight.
1065
01:09:40,083 --> 01:09:42,583
I missed you guys,
so I left early...
1066
01:09:42,584 --> 01:09:46,455
put the pedal to the metal and
got here as soon as I could.
1067
01:09:46,456 --> 01:09:47,540
Great, so, can we leave tonight?
1068
01:09:47,541 --> 01:09:53,044
Tonight? After 15 hours straight?
I need some rest first.
1069
01:09:53,045 --> 01:09:56,547
Okay, can we leave
tomorrow morning?
1070
01:09:56,548 --> 01:09:58,049
You are really ready
to go home, huh?
1071
01:09:58,050 --> 01:10:01,552
I think we all miss our
little igloo back home.
1072
01:10:01,553 --> 01:10:03,554
Not you, too.
1073
01:10:03,555 --> 01:10:04,756
Even me.
1074
01:10:08,227 --> 01:10:11,695
Now that Dad was back,
everything felt right.
1075
01:10:11,696 --> 01:10:16,684
I was actually looking forward
to Joey's church service.
1076
01:10:19,487 --> 01:10:22,573
Kenny, you all right? Where's
your brother, where's Byron?
1077
01:10:22,874 --> 01:10:26,444
What? That sounded close!
1078
01:10:34,167 --> 01:10:39,672
Wilona! Robert! The baby!
1079
01:10:48,265 --> 01:10:51,467
Oh, no, no, no. You stay here with
your brother. You watch Kenny.
1080
01:11:01,577 --> 01:11:06,815
By? By! By!
1081
01:11:07,616 --> 01:11:09,818
By, where are you?
1082
01:11:10,118 --> 01:11:11,117
By, what happened?
1083
01:11:11,118 --> 01:11:14,789
Someone called and said
somebody bombed Joey's church!
1084
01:11:30,554 --> 01:11:34,473
By! By, wait!
1085
01:11:34,474 --> 01:11:35,758
By!
1086
01:11:52,408 --> 01:11:54,192
Joey!
1087
01:14:34,445 --> 01:14:40,233
Kenny! Where'd you go!
How'd you get back here so fast?
1088
01:14:41,069 --> 01:14:43,321
Where are Mom and Dad?
1089
01:14:50,627 --> 01:14:52,161
Joey?
1090
01:14:56,833 --> 01:15:00,336
You look so beautiful.
So beautiful.
1091
01:15:00,337 --> 01:15:03,673
What? Where's Momma and Daddy?
1092
01:15:05,475 --> 01:15:07,510
Such a beautiful angel.
1093
01:15:10,596 --> 01:15:14,299
I'm no angel... I'm a girl.
1094
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:16,735
What's wrong with you, Kenny?
1095
01:15:16,736 --> 01:15:21,272
Beautiful girl, angel.
I knew you would be.
1096
01:15:21,273 --> 01:15:24,359
Kenny, please, stop playing!
1097
01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:27,245
We need to do something!
1098
01:15:27,246 --> 01:15:32,750
I'm sorry, Joey...
I just couldn't.
1099
01:15:32,751 --> 01:15:35,870
It almost got me.
It got you, too!
1100
01:15:36,004 --> 01:15:38,589
Stop acting crazy!
1101
01:15:38,590 --> 01:15:43,293
We have to go find everyone!
They may be looking for us!
1102
01:15:43,294 --> 01:15:45,829
I can't go back out there.
1103
01:15:47,715 --> 01:15:49,716
It might get me.
1104
01:15:50,017 --> 01:15:51,718
What, Kenny?
1105
01:15:52,019 --> 01:15:52,969
What might get you?
1106
01:15:52,970 --> 01:15:55,388
The Wooh Pooh.
1107
01:15:56,473 --> 01:16:00,810
The Wooh Pooh?
What are you talking about?
1108
01:16:00,811 --> 01:16:04,280
It was there, I saw it,
as big as the sky.
1109
01:16:04,281 --> 01:16:07,901
It was an explosion, no Wooh Pooh!
1110
01:16:11,621 --> 01:16:15,157
I'm sorry, Joey. I just...
I just couldn't do it.
1111
01:16:15,291 --> 01:16:16,942
Kenny, you're scaring me.
1112
01:16:17,043 --> 01:16:20,078
You and I both know that
bomb went off at the church.
1113
01:16:20,079 --> 01:16:23,165
Mommy and Daddy are
probably looking for us.
1114
01:16:23,166 --> 01:16:25,534
We have to go find them. Now!
1115
01:16:25,835 --> 01:16:29,221
It was the Wooh Pooh.
I told you he was real.
1116
01:16:29,222 --> 01:16:31,388
- Joey!
- Joey!
1117
01:16:31,389 --> 01:16:32,723
Joetta, are you all right?
1118
01:16:32,724 --> 01:16:36,260
I'm fine, but I think something
is wrong with Kenny.
1119
01:16:40,482 --> 01:16:44,567
After the church bombing, we couldn't
get out of Birmingham fast enough.
1120
01:16:44,568 --> 01:16:47,071
Grandma Sands and Mr. Robert
refused to come with us.
1121
01:16:47,072 --> 01:16:51,073
They said Birmingham was their home.
It was an issue of principle, they said.
1122
01:16:51,074 --> 01:16:55,079
Grandma Sands called a couple of times and
said the police didn't know who did it.
1123
01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:59,582
But everyone else had an idea
about who was responsible.
1124
01:16:59,583 --> 01:17:01,585
That bomb killed
four little girls...
1125
01:17:01,586 --> 01:17:06,589
blinded a couple more and sent a bunch
of other people to the hospital.
1126
01:17:06,590 --> 01:17:10,793
I couldn't stop wondering about that little
girl who's shoes I saw in the rubble.
1127
01:17:11,094 --> 01:17:13,596
I sure hope Kenny knows
how proud we are of him.
1128
01:17:13,597 --> 01:17:18,300
He's such a good boy,
and I love him so much.
1129
01:17:28,611 --> 01:17:31,312
He is such a brave boy.
1130
01:17:51,215 --> 01:17:53,717
Hey, check this out, Jack.
1131
01:17:53,718 --> 01:17:57,004
And there's another
one coming in, too.
1132
01:17:57,805 --> 01:18:00,806
I hadn't looked at myself
in a real, long time...
1133
01:18:00,807 --> 01:18:03,010
so maybe it was my reflection.
1134
01:18:03,311 --> 01:18:05,813
I'm not sure, but being
there with Byron...
1135
01:18:05,814 --> 01:18:12,518
it was like the flood gates opened up and all
the pain from the summer just poured out.
1136
01:18:29,002 --> 01:18:30,902
I'm sorry, Byron.
1137
01:18:31,203 --> 01:18:35,206
Just shut up and cry if you want.
1138
01:18:35,207 --> 01:18:37,207
Why would they do that, Byron?
1139
01:18:37,208 --> 01:18:40,212
Why would they hurt some
little girls like that?
1140
01:18:40,213 --> 01:18:45,216
I don't know, Mom and Dad said
they can't help themselves.
1141
01:18:45,217 --> 01:18:49,720
They said they did it because
they sick, but I don't know.
1142
01:18:49,721 --> 01:18:52,221
I ain't never heard of no sickness
that makes you kill little girls...
1143
01:18:52,222 --> 01:18:55,192
just because you don't
want them in your school.
1144
01:18:55,193 --> 01:18:59,013
I went to the church.
I saw what happened.
1145
01:18:59,113 --> 01:19:00,814
I saw one of the girls.
1146
01:19:00,815 --> 01:19:05,284
We all did, Kenny. There's nothing
wrong about being sad about that.
1147
01:19:05,285 --> 01:19:06,987
I mean, I'm sad about it.
1148
01:19:08,289 --> 01:19:11,407
I got real scared about it, too.
1149
01:19:11,408 --> 01:19:12,609
I should have saved her.
1150
01:19:12,909 --> 01:19:17,413
Nothing could have been done.
No way, no how.
1151
01:19:18,715 --> 01:19:21,217
I left that little girl.
1152
01:19:21,218 --> 01:19:22,802
I thought the Wooh
Pooh had her and...
1153
01:19:22,803 --> 01:19:26,671
Man, you ain't gonna start talking about
that Wooh Pooh mess again, are you?
1154
01:19:26,672 --> 01:19:29,475
I told you that the
Wooh Pooh was made up.
1155
01:19:29,476 --> 01:19:32,893
The only one I was fighting in that
water was your little, stupid behind.
1156
01:19:32,894 --> 01:19:36,064
There was no one else in
that water but you and me.
1157
01:19:36,065 --> 01:19:38,350
That's what you think.
1158
01:19:40,653 --> 01:19:44,155
But I know better.
I've seen him... twice.
1159
01:19:44,156 --> 01:19:46,474
Look, Kenny, if you don't stop
talking that Wooh Pooh mess...
1160
01:19:46,475 --> 01:19:48,575
I'mma leave you in here
to cry by yourself.
1161
01:19:48,576 --> 01:19:50,444
And there's no such thing
as magic powers, either.
1162
01:19:50,445 --> 01:19:52,663
You can't stay behind the couch
for the rest of your life.
1163
01:19:52,664 --> 01:19:59,453
But, By, I should have stayed at
the church... and looked for Joey.
1164
01:19:59,454 --> 01:20:04,508
Instead... I let the
Wooh Pooh scare me away.
1165
01:20:04,509 --> 01:20:06,377
I wasn't brave enough
to fight him like you.
1166
01:20:06,378 --> 01:20:09,913
And Joey was all right.
She came looking for you.
1167
01:20:10,214 --> 01:20:11,713
How can you believe in something...
1168
01:20:11,714 --> 01:20:15,217
something so stupid as magic powers
or genies living behind a couch?
1169
01:20:15,218 --> 01:20:18,855
But not believe that there was
something that saved Joey?
1170
01:20:18,856 --> 01:20:21,356
It's not fair what
happened to those girls.
1171
01:20:21,357 --> 01:20:24,310
Kenny, things in life
ain't ever gonna be fair.
1172
01:20:25,612 --> 01:20:30,098
You just gotta understand that's the
way it is, and keep on steppin'.
1173
01:20:33,236 --> 01:20:36,489
Here, man, blow your nose.
1174
01:20:37,490 --> 01:20:41,493
Wipe your face, it's about
time you cut this mess out.
1175
01:20:41,494 --> 01:20:44,495
Mom and Dad are starting to think
your little behind is on the blink.
1176
01:20:44,496 --> 01:20:46,465
And don't let me catch
you back there again.
1177
01:20:46,466 --> 01:20:48,966
You ain't got no cause
to be scared of nothing.
1178
01:20:48,967 --> 01:20:51,469
You smart enough to figure
this one out for yourself.
1179
01:20:51,470 --> 01:20:56,424
Besides, you're gettin' this
from the top dog himself.
1180
01:20:56,425 --> 01:20:58,427
You're gonna be all
right, baby bro.
1181
01:20:58,428 --> 01:21:01,713
Okay? You'll be all right.
1182
01:21:11,655 --> 01:21:15,658
Shoot, I sure wish I knew
who my real folks was.
1183
01:21:15,659 --> 01:21:19,362
There just ain't no way two folks
as ugly as your momma and daddy...
1184
01:21:19,663 --> 01:21:22,866
could ever have a
child as fine as me.
1185
01:21:32,759 --> 01:21:34,760
Is everything okay, Byron?
1186
01:21:34,761 --> 01:21:37,261
Kenny's cool. He's
related to me, ain't he?
1187
01:21:37,262 --> 01:21:40,766
Byron Watson, how many times am I gonna
have to tell you not to say ain't?
1188
01:21:40,767 --> 01:21:42,468
Everything all right, Kenny?
1189
01:21:59,201 --> 01:22:03,404
Hey, Poindexter...
watch yourself.
1190
01:22:03,405 --> 01:22:06,207
You hear me?
1191
01:22:06,208 --> 01:22:07,909
What, you deaf now?
1192
01:22:08,210 --> 01:22:10,327
Yeah, I heard you, Larry Dunn.
1193
01:22:12,830 --> 01:22:14,548
What?
1194
01:22:14,549 --> 01:22:15,950
What?
1195
01:22:16,584 --> 01:22:20,086
Just say what you have to
say and leave me alone.
1196
01:22:20,087 --> 01:22:21,922
You can't hurt me.
1197
01:22:21,923 --> 01:22:23,624
Oh, you're gonna pay
for that after school.
1198
01:22:23,625 --> 01:22:26,627
Oh, yeah? Says who?
1199
01:22:31,515 --> 01:22:34,100
I thought you were a coward.
1200
01:22:34,985 --> 01:22:36,686
Look at you.
1201
01:22:42,359 --> 01:22:45,276
Today President Johnson signed
the Civil Rights legislation...
1202
01:22:45,277 --> 01:22:49,280
outlawing discrimination based
on race, religion and gender.
1203
01:22:49,281 --> 01:22:54,986
Thereby making segregation in schools or any
public place illegal across this nation.
1204
01:22:58,624 --> 01:23:03,460
Byron was wrong about there not being
anything like magic powers and genies.
1205
01:23:03,461 --> 01:23:07,549
There might not be magic powers like when
a magician pulls a rabbit out of a hat.
1206
01:23:07,550 --> 01:23:11,635
But the magic of love could
overcome injustice...
1207
01:23:11,636 --> 01:23:16,340
protect against fear
and heal any wound.
1208
01:23:17,141 --> 01:23:20,344
Hey, hey, hey.98789
