:59:03
Where do you go from here?
:59:06
South Carolina,
another little nigger club.

:59:08
No, I meant in life.
Where do you go?

:59:11
In life?
:59:12
I'm happy.
:59:14
Got me a pretty woman.
:59:16
Got a little money in my pocket.
:59:19
Got me some tonic.
:59:20
I'm above ground.
I'm ahead of the game.

:59:23
And you know what
I always taught you.

:59:25
Every nigger is an entertainer.
:59:30
The question is...
:59:32
What are you going to do,
Peerless?

:59:33
And one more thing.
:59:36
Nigger, where the fuck
did you get that accent?

:59:42
Why do you always use
that word "nigger" so much?

:59:46
I say "nigger"
a hundred times every morning.

:59:50
Keeps my teeth white.
:59:52
Come on, Junebug.
:59:53
My father.
:59:55
I'm not mad at him--
not at all.

:59:58
Or the stock market crash--
Black Monday.

1:00:00
Junebug was the reason...
1:00:02
I had gotten into this business
in the first place.

1:00:04
You hear white folks
all the time--

1:00:05
"lt was the darkest day
of my life."

1:00:07
When they faint--"l blacked out.
I don't remember anything."

1:00:10
And I thank him for that.
1:00:13
However, it did me no good
seeing him in that state.

1:00:17
Father was a broken man.
1:00:18
...broke or lose our money--
1:00:20
"lt was the whitest day
of my life."

1:00:21
He had been a strong man...
1:00:24
with conviction,
integrity, principles...

1:00:28
and look
where it had gotten him.

1:00:31
Even the cartoons are racist.
1:00:32
Have you noticed that?
1:00:34
Why do they treat us like that?
1:00:36
I had to ask myself--
1:00:38
Did I want to end up
where he was?

1:00:41
Laughing and grinning...
1:00:42
Hell, emphatically, no.
1:00:46
Broke and the happiest people
on the planet.

1:00:49
That was the last time
I ever saw Junebug.

1:00:52
A damn shame.
1:00:53
Remember, son...
1:00:56
always keep 'em laughing.
1:00:58
Keep 'em laughing.
