No. I won't come. I don't want it
to look as if the clan was mustering in force.

:59:04
But behave as though
nothing had happened.

:59:07
- Lunch is ready, ma'am.
- Thank you, Mary.

Congratulations.

That was a fine series of articles,
the best things I've read about the island.

:59:33
As for that one today,
that was- that was the goods.

:59:36
You said things
that needed saying.

:59:38
From my point of view,
I can't tell you how grateful I am.

:59:41
- In what way?
- In every way.

:59:45
I've not been trusted.
The people here, West Indian...

:59:47
they thought of me as a Fleury, a feudal planter,
bought their ancestors in the marketplace.

:59:51
But now? I'm standing for the legislature.
Why not?

:59:56
I combine black and white, the new and the old.
I've a foot in both camps.

1:00:01
And your article gave me
the guts that I needed.

1:00:03
- What'll it be, gentlemen?
- Rum and, uh, ginger. Two of them.

1:00:06
Just water.
1:00:08
I didn't see this before. But now I can
look out at those faces and I can say to them...

1:00:11
"My grandmother was
of African ancestry.

1:00:14
She came over in a slave trader
just as yours did."

1:00:17
Yes, I can say to them,
"I'm one of you now."

1:00:24
- Cheers.
- Cheers.

You do?
Who the devil are you?
