Now, question:
:59:09
Did you write this paper?
:59:13
You really feel like insulting
my intelligence, don't you?
:59:17
I worked my ass off on that paper.
I rewrote it three times.
:59:21
-Shouldn't be one misspelled word.
-Okay, Mr. Williams, I believe you.
:59:30
Are you having problems
here at Columbus?
:59:36
It's all right.
:59:39
I got a problem with the way fools
be tripping when they see a black face.
:59:44
Someone spit in your face
when you first came to campus?
:59:49
Was there a cross burned
outside your dormitory?
:59:51
No. I know what you're
trying to get at.
:59:54
Just 'cause it ain't up in my face,
that don't mean it's not happening.
:59:58
It's less physical now.
It's more mental.
1:00:01
I gotta run and study, man.
1:00:04
I don't see these white folks worrying
about nothing but going to class...
1:00:09
...talking about skiing.
They don't have the same worries.
1:00:13
Then your problem is financial.
Not racial, but economic.
1:00:20
These type of problems
can be worked out.
1:00:24
For example,
you are a runner, are you not?
1:00:29
-One of the best.
-A big-time track star, huh?
1:00:33
All right.
1:00:35
Let us say you are running a race...
1:00:38
...and you suspect the opposing team
has a member who is faster, stronger...
1:00:43
...more big-time than yourself.
1:00:46
What do you do then?
Do you leave the track?
1:00:49
Hell, no.
1:00:53
-What do you do?
-Run faster.
