That's it.

Whatfashion, dudes!
:07:15
- Hey, girls!
- Hi you all!

:07:30
When my mother
was pregnant with me...

:07:33
..the Ku Klux Klan surrounded
our house in Omaha, Nebraska.

:07:37
They brandished guns and shouted
for myfatherto come out.

:07:42
Come on out, nigger!
:07:44
My motherwent out and told them that
my father was in Milwaukee preaching.

:07:49
But the hooded Klansmen
told herwe had to get out of town.

:07:58
- We'll burn you out! Niggers!
- Stop it!

:08:03
- We warned you!
- We don'twant you here!

:08:09
Agitator!
You'll payforthis!

:08:12
They broke every window
and rode off into the night.

:08:18
They rode off into the moonlight
as suddenly as they had come.

:08:23
My fatherwas not
a frightened negro as most were.

:08:28
He was 6 feet 4, a very strong man.
:08:31
He believed, as did Marcus Garvey,
that freedom and independence...

:08:35
..could never be achieved
by the negro in America.

:08:38
We must build
a great nation in Africa.

:08:43
Therefore black men should leave
America and return to Africa.

:08:48
My father saw 4 of his 6 brothers
die violently.

:08:55
Three killed by white men
and one lynched.

:08:58
There were 9 children in our family.
My motherwas proud and educated.
