Keep talkin', talkin',

What?

[confused murmuring]

[Oliver]
Okay, let's get started.

Great.

Uh, welcome, parents,
to Canonical Studies.

If you're unfamiliar,

this is
an interdisciplinary course

that exposes freshmen
to the Western canon.

Our focus on fundamental texts
fortifies their foundations

before they continue
their studies

or go off to run the world.

[light laughter]

Professor Reynolds, please?

So this week,

we are dissecting Invisible Man.

Show of hands... how many parents
here have actually read it?

Oh, um... [chuckles]

...it's been a while,
but I think I recall

how the book portrays not only
the effects of overt racism,

but also the depersonalization
of race blindness.

- Mom.
- [Jabari] Very well put.

I certainly see
where Lauren gets it from.

[Phillip]
How is this book relevant

in a course about
fundamental texts?

- Dad!
- [Oliver] The text

is a metaphor to illustrate

the racial divide in America.

How is that not relevant?

Ooh, I like him. Mm-hmm.

You can turn around.

[Jabari] Ralph Ellison writes,

"I've been trying to look
through myself.

"And there's risk in it.

I was never more hated than
when I tried to be honest."

How do we interpret that?

Mr. St. Patrick,
what do you think?

Well, I think he's right.

You know, that's how life works.

People only like to hear
what they wanna hear.

The truth is usually ugly,
and they don't wanna hear that.

They wanna hear
their own version of it.

[Lauren clears throat]

I think a mature person
is always honest,

even if other people
don't like it.

Mm, nice answer, honey.

Nobody is always honest.

Mm, better answer, honey.

[Oliver] So, students, maybe we
should share with our parents

some of the excerpts
from our Invisible Man papers.
