:34:00
Now where you gonna go?
Your friend go to jail. No beepers in here.
:34:05
Don't make no scene.
:34:07
Arthur is accepted
at the public high school near his home.
:34:11
he's been out of school for two months
and lost a whole semester's credit.
:34:19
here you have a youngster caught
:34:21
in the middle of two
separate school systems.
:34:24
had he stayed at St. Joseph's...
:34:27
he would have been able to receive
credit for that first semester.
:34:32
Doesn't seem fair,
but then that's the system.
:34:38
If he was going out there and he was playing
like they had predicted him to play...
:34:42
he wouldn't be at Marshall.
:34:44
Economics wouldn't have had anything
to do with him not being at St. Joe's.
:34:48
Somebody would have made some kind of
:34:49
arrangement, and the kid
would've still been there.
:34:52
he's not making it like they thought he was
gonna make it on the basketball court...
:34:56
so he's not there, simple as that.
:34:58
It doesn't take no brilliant person
to figure that out.
:35:07
It's mid-season
when Arthurjoins the sophomore team.
:35:12
he was so depressed and devastated,
hejust closed himself off in the room.
:35:16
I would go in there and tell him
every day, "hey, things will look up. '"
:35:25
Coming off the bench,
Arthur wears number 11...
:35:28
Isiah Thomas's number.
:35:45
What kind of techniques were being used...
:35:48
to take away the freedoms
that had been earned?
:35:52
- Jeannetta.
- Poll tax.
:35:55
Poll tax. Okay, Arthur,
what other techniques were used...
:35:59
to keep black Americans from voting?
