...and the whole monologue will end up
with the word "heritage"!

:58:03
Your heritage is nothing
but a bunch of raggedy spirituals...

:58:07
...and some grass huts!
:58:09
Grass huts?
:58:11
You see, George...
:58:14
...you would rather stand there
in your splendid ignorance...

:58:16
...and know absolutely nothing
about the people...

:58:18
...who were the first to smelt iron
on the face of this earth.

:58:21
Why, the Ashantis were performing
surgical operations...

:58:26
...when the English were still
tattooing themselves with blue dragons!

:58:36
Have a seat, George.
:58:50
Would you like an ice-cold beer?
:58:53
No, thanks.
I don't care for beer.

:58:57
I hope she hurries up.
:58:59
What time is the show?
:59:00
It's an 8:30 curtain.
:59:03
That's just Chicago. In New York,
standard curtain time is always 8:40.

:59:08
You get to New York a lot?
:59:09
Sure.
A few times a year.

:59:11
That's nice.
I've never been to New York.

:59:14
New York.
:59:16
New York ain't got nothing
Chicago ain't...

:59:18
...except a bunch of hustling people all
squeezed together being Eastern.

:59:22
So you've been?
:59:24
- Plenty of times.
- Walter Lee...

:59:26
Plenty!
:59:27
What you got in this house to drink?
Offer the man some refreshments.

:59:32
You're not entertaining enough.
:59:34
No, thank you.
I don't care for anything.

:59:40
How come all you college boys wear
them faggoty-Iooking white shoes?

:59:45
Walter Lee!
:59:52
Excuse him.
:59:53
They look funny as hell.
You know?

:59:55
Bad as them black knee stockings
Beneatha wears all the time.

:59:58
It's the college style.
