In Virginia,
:00:55
high school football
is a way of life.
:00:57
It's bigger
than Christmas day.
:01:00
My daddy
coached in Alexandria.
:01:02
He worked so hard,
my mama left him,
:01:04
but I stayed with Coach.
:01:06
He needed me on that field.
:01:10
Up until 1971
in Alexandria,
:01:12
there was no race mixing.
:01:14
Then the school board
forced us to integrate.
:01:16
They combined the white school
and the black school into one
:01:19
called
T. C. Williams High School.
:01:31
Murderer! Murderer!
:01:34
hat summer
a black teenager was killed
:01:36
by a white store owner,
:01:38
and the city was
on the verge of exploding.
:01:40
!! Well, my mind
is goin' through some changes!!
:01:44
You've caused
enough damage!
:01:46
- This is my store!
- Back off.
:01:48
Blue left!
Blue left! Left!
:01:52
Come on, Kurt, don't let Ray
back you down like that!
:01:54
You're twice his size!
:01:56
Aargh!
What are they doing?
:01:58
If they keep playing like that,
we'll lose every game!
