this shit gotta be
fuckin' big, y'all.

1:19:02
It's gotta be some
global blowout shit.

1:19:05
This shit gotta have some
symbolism to it! Sustenance.

1:19:10
This shit gotta be like fuckin'
John Carlos and Tommie Smith...

1:19:15
at the '68 Olympics,
you know what I'm saying?

1:19:17
Put the fists up!
Some big shit!

1:19:19
This is nice.
1:19:21
This is real nice.
1:19:22
This must have cost you
a pretty penny.

1:19:26
Me, I got it like that now.
1:19:27
Oh, you do.
1:19:30
I mean,
a little somethin' somethin'.

1:19:33
A little somethin' somethin'
is right.

1:19:34
I hope you saving
a little somethin' somethin'.

1:19:36
I ain't tryin' to end up broke.
1:19:38
Well, that's good.
1:19:41
See you got your pictures up.
1:19:44
I was just reading
the other day...

1:19:46
at the beginning
of the 20th Century...

1:19:48
how African-Americans
had to perform in blackface.

1:19:51
You know that entertainer
Bert Williams?

1:19:53
He was brilliant.
You know Bert?

1:19:56
Not really.
Maybe before my time.

1:19:59
Do you read?
1:20:01
I mean, not really.
Sort of hurts my head.

1:20:03
Hurts your head.
You should start reading.

1:20:06
Maybe I should start
doing a lot of things.

1:20:10
Well, as I was saying...
1:20:13
Bert Williams and the rest...
1:20:15
they had to blacken up
'cause they had no choice.

1:20:17
And of course,
during that time...

1:20:19
we were considered
3/5 of a human being.

1:20:22
Did you know that was
actually written...

1:20:24
in the Constitution
of the United States?

1:20:26
Sloan, why you flippin' on me
right now?

1:20:29
I mean,
this whole blackface thing.

1:20:31
Don't try to front
like you wasn't down.

1:20:34
It was all part of a deal,
you know?

1:20:36
You was down from the get-go.
1:20:38
You're down with Dela, right?
1:20:41
Yes. I'm down with Dela.
1:20:44
I just thought
you might be interested...

1:20:46
in the origins of blackface.
1:20:48
Look, my man Womack, myself...
1:20:53
we can definitely
handle this business.

1:20:55
I mean, for sure, I know
I can handle my business.
