00:01Fare thee well, if I never ever see you anymore, fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well, I
00:21meet you now, fare thee well.
00:24How many more tampons are we going to find in ditches or hanging from trees before we do something?
00:35Our lives are precious, we are not property, why does a child have to die to be free?
00:49We don't have to die to be free!
00:51Oh, come on.
01:13Come on.
01:16This half hole saved my life.

01:27in Africa
01:29with your own kind
01:30my kind?
01:32we genuinely thought that the society's plan
01:34to send your people back to their native land
01:37would be a better life
01:40I'm born here
01:41same as you all
01:42three years in Liberia showed me that I'm not meant to be there

01:50that whole American colonization society
01:52is just a tricky little way
01:53of ridding America of free blacks
01:56and that's why I've come back
02:00we try our best
02:02we can't know what'll happen

02:31we can't
02:49can
02:53Let's go.
03:20Let's go.
03:51If we leave evil alone, are we responsible for it growing?
03:56What are you proposing?
03:59Something that will put us all in danger.
04:27I wasn't certain you could come.
04:29I'm being watched.
04:31Have you the two?
04:33Every suspicious eye turns my way.
04:36I'm sorry about the boy.
04:41I'm determined the devil will not have died in pain.
04:45This way of life must end.
04:47That's why we have the underground.
04:49No.
04:50We must do more.
04:52More?
04:53What more is there?
04:55Sort of overthrowing the Confederate government.
04:57Precisely.
04:59How?
05:00Reassembling our railroad.
05:02Reassembling our railroad?
05:03For what?
05:05The dissemination of information.
05:06You intend to turn our underground into a spy network?
05:11Instead of runaways, we shuttle messages up north.
05:15We position loyal patriots to pass information at strategic points,
05:20Confederate headquarters, brothels, camps, hospitals.
05:24Well, why not infiltrate the Greyhouse?
05:28Once President Davis arrives, I assure you,
05:31you will know what he is having for breakfast.
05:35Now that is one ambitious undertaking.
05:40Mother and I have the access, resources, and ability
05:45to move through the city's corridors of power.
05:50Richmond simmers with treachery.
05:54Who can you trust?
05:57That is the risk I'll take.
06:01That is the risk we all take.
06:08I am dubious on your proposal.
06:12I shall let you know.
06:13Quick.
06:24One hundred!
06:26One hundred!
06:27One hundred!
06:27One hundred!
06:28One hundred!
06:28One hundred!
06:29One hundred!
06:30One hundred!
06:30One hundred!
06:30Got yourself a good bargain there, Zeke.
06:33Oh, that's damn it.
06:33No, no, no, no.
06:35Come on.
06:36Oh, ho, ho!
06:38Oh, we got a prime young buck here, folks.
06:41Go by the tag of Jeremiah.
06:45Very important.
06:46Oh, wait.
06:47Elfie is a mule.
06:49Don't want me about a few dollars a pound.
06:52That's all I'm up with, folks.
06:53All muscle.
06:55You know what?
06:56A few dollars more, I'm going to throw in the missing.
07:02And you know what?
07:03A little pickin' in it, too.
07:06That's a real good bargain, folks.
07:08Martin!
07:09You son of a bitch, you've been keeping your mouth shut all morning.
07:12You're going to start the bidding at one hundred!
07:15One hundred!
07:16Give me a hundred twenty-five, one hundred twenty-five, two hundred twenty-five, three hundred.
07:21Three hundred, four hundred.
07:22Three fifty here.
07:22We got three fifty, but that ain't going to do it.
07:25Not going to do it.
07:26Here, four hundred.
07:27Four hundred!
07:27That's the original problem.
07:28Not going to do it.
07:30Gentlemen, gentlemen, this here is a genuine Virginia-born, Virginia-bred docking.
07:35One hundred dollars.
07:40That's a good one, Mr. Wise.
07:43I was about ready to have my boys toss you out.
07:46A hundred for the girl.
07:48Sell the buck, and we don't need him.
07:50We're on pickin' in it.
07:51Please, mess us up.
07:53Take us all.
07:54Let your people go off your wing.
07:56Oh, yeah, give him the, give him, take the baby.
07:58Take the baby.
07:59Come on.
08:01It'd be better if you just take the whole lot, you know.
08:04I ain't being mocked or nothing, but, uh, they, they'd work longer and harder if you,
08:09if you, if you, if you just, uh, keep them all together, you know.
08:13Just the gals, she'll do fine.
08:15Five hundred dollars.
08:17That's good.
08:18For the whole family.
08:19That's even better.
08:22Five hundredths, boneless.
08:24Do I hear six hundred?
08:26Five hundredths, five.
08:28I got five hundred going once.
08:30Going twice.
08:31Sold.
08:33Fine, Lou.
08:43Why God means black?
08:45She say, cause that's, that's the way it is.
08:50Chosen.
08:50Next ten.
08:52That one, that one, and that one.
08:54Hurry!
08:55Yes, sir.
08:56Can't let that slave master see us.
08:59But after we stood up here in that day,
09:02that man swore him.
09:03He'll kill us both.
09:05Oh, he can't tell one donkey from another.
09:11Even you say so.
09:12He's all the same, the wife-o.
09:17I am forever grateful for you saving me and my Eula.
09:23I'm awful sorry.
09:25I wasn't this soon to help that pole.
09:30I'm sorry, father.
09:33Darryl call!
09:40Goddammit, cap pop, look at your lolligangs!
09:42We got niggas' now!
09:53See these papers?
09:54Yes, sir.
09:55Yes, sir.
09:55If I sign them, it's called manumission.
09:57Yo, legal release.
09:59You can never be enslaved again.
10:03For go free?
10:04If I sign them.
10:06Well, where we gonna go, sir?
10:08We ain't got no place to be.
10:09What we gonna do?
10:11That's up to you.
10:13Being free means you're on your own.
10:15Or, you can work for me and my family at a fair wage.
10:19Your choice.
10:21Sir.
10:31William, what are you doing back there?
10:33You trying to hide or something?
10:41Well, let's see them teeth.
10:44You.
10:45Move it.
10:47Let's go.
10:50You ain't fooling nobody, Junior.
10:52Except your old maid sister.
10:58Yeah.
10:59Fuck, get your ass back here.
11:01Yeah.
11:02Damn it, William.
11:03What's going on?
11:04You acting like you've seen a ghost.
11:06Yes, sir.
11:06Sorry, sir.
11:07You know how Mrs. Eliza did even later.
11:10She'll be more upset if you kill her only son.
11:12Now, slow down.
11:13Mary Jane.
11:16Will you know, killed slave hunters saw me?
11:18You recognize me?
11:20How do you know he recognized you?
11:21I just know.
11:22I'll tell Miss Lizzie.
11:26I need your old gargling clothes.
11:28What?
11:29What are you for?
11:31William says Lumpkin's slave hunter recognized him and are coming for him in Eula.
11:36Is he certain of that?
11:38William's been all over town since that day.
11:40We can't risk it.
11:42I need to get them out as soon as possible.
11:43You.
11:44You can't.
11:45There's a war commencing at any moment.
11:47I'm taking him out of the temple.
11:51Anything happens.
11:52I couldn't live with myself.
11:54Mary Jane, have they should get the special wagon ready?
11:57Shh.
12:01Shh.
12:01Shh.
12:02Shh.
12:04Yes.
12:07William.
12:08Eula.
12:09I'm taking the trail.
12:11It's too risky on the road.
12:13You all right in there?
12:15Yeah, I'm going to make me a risk.
12:17When we get to the farm, you must proceed on foot to the railways.
12:21Look for a green kacheef hanging on the plow by the barn.
12:25But if you see a red one...
12:26Turn back and run.
12:27No.
12:28Hide and survive.
12:32I bet they don't even know we're going.
12:36Hey, look what's coming here.
12:39Whoa, whoa!
12:45What are you doing out here, ma'am?
12:47I'm going on back out to my farm.
12:51Trying to get a first piece down the road away from all this racket.
12:56War started, lady.
12:57You got a pass?
12:59Ain't nobody saying I need one.
13:01So says Deputy Marshal Reeves.
13:04Is that right?
13:06Check the wagon.
13:07Wagon them.
13:08Accept them for a few taters and turnips and stuff.
13:13I said, check the wagon.
13:33Ain't nothing back here.
13:52Evolutionist smugglers!
13:54You look up!
13:56You look up!
14:01Here.
14:03Shut up!
14:11All right.
14:13Let's go.
14:13Never.
14:13No!
14:14Yes!
14:21Oh!
14:24Yes!
14:26It's too close!
14:27No!
14:59Uh...
17:28Pull back!
17:30Pull back!
17:32Take cover where you can!
17:34We got them running, boys.
17:35Yeah.
17:36Cut them off!
17:37Talk around and flank them!
17:42Carter, throw them in, boys!
17:44Get out of here!
17:47Get out of here!
18:08Oh
18:50Welcome to the old dominion captain I'm waiting for you
19:04I think we have the advantage
19:18What's the message general mr. President general Jackson says that the yanks ran like dogs
19:29Perhaps now the north will lose hard and negotiate for peace
19:33No choice
19:35No choice
19:41That's a naive assessment
19:43Our troops are proving only slightly less green and disorganized than mr. Lincolns
19:47The generals are now believed we must press the attack
19:50Parry the enemy all the way to Washington
19:52We lose the advantage of fighting our own ground and have to face their entrenched artillery
19:56If we take their capital they'd have to sue for peace
19:58We make quick work of this war
19:59Mr. President
20:00We cannot confuse the fantasies of our penny alarm press with hard realities
20:04You think I don't know that?
20:05You did win the day
20:06Our first class with the enemy we've emerged victorious
20:19Welcome home
20:33Thank you
20:43We don't hear you
20:45Stop it
20:47You can't hear you
20:48You can't hear you
20:52I think we're gonna do this though. There's a whole dollar. I don't know that we're gonna prefer that one.
21:00Let me take this
21:19I know that Amanda and I do the same if you were mine. We are Southern gentlemen, Jasper. That is
21:25not how we behave. Oh, would you stop with that? I'm a proud Virginian through and through. As such, it
21:35is incumbent upon all of us to act accordingly. Those men are soldiers too.
21:57I don't know.
22:27I don't know.
22:28I don't know.
22:29I'm gonna do it.
22:30I'm gonna do it.
22:45I see a chair.
22:47Yeah, yeah.
22:48New silver pocket wash.
23:07Why won't the men propose, Mama?
23:11Why won't the men propose?
23:15He seems to be coming to the point
23:19But then away he goes
23:24It is no fault of yours, Mama
23:28That everybody knows
23:31He fed the finest men in town
23:35But oh, he won't propose
23:37He won't, he won't, he won't, he won't propose, Mama
23:44He won't, he won't, he won't propose
23:57I'm sure I've done my best, Mama
23:59To make a proper match
24:03For the coronets and eldest sons
24:06I'm always on the watch
24:08I've hoped one's undistinguable
24:12A glance upon me throws
24:17Though he'll smile and learn and dance
24:20But oh, he won't propose
24:23He won't, he won't, he won't propose, Mama
24:29He won't, he won't, he won't propose
24:42I've tried to win by languishing
24:45And dressing like a blue
24:49I've bought big books and talked of them
24:51As if I've read them through
24:56Then I throw away the books
24:59Thought ignorance was bliss
25:03I'll convince that men preferred
25:06A simpler sort of man
25:11But oh, he can't, he can't, he can't
25:16Oh, he won't, he won't, he won't
25:23He won't, he won't, he won't
25:34And what is to be done, Mama, oh, what is to be done
25:41I have no time to lose, Mama
25:44For I am 31
25:47At balls I am too often left
25:51Where spinsters sit in rows
25:53Why won't the men propose, Mama
25:57Why won't the men propose
26:00They won't, they won't, they won't
26:05They won't propose, Mama
26:07They won't, they won't, they won't
26:12They won't propose
26:28To our glorious new confederacy
26:33A-ha, drink your food and Yankees eaters
26:37Woo!
26:43Yeah!
26:46Peter, I can only accommodate one of yours
26:50Unless y'all's real good friends, you know what I'm saying
26:54Seems you fellas understand the value of an auction
26:59Too bitch
27:01She makes one of one at least twice that I mean
27:04I'm a girl of men and tricks and trains
27:06I can bake pie, I can make grown men cry
27:08Gotta get three!
27:15Well, I didn't expect to see you in such low company
27:18Now that you're our big and important secretary of war
27:21No, too big to find you
27:23Curious appointment
27:24A Louisiana Bayou lawyer
27:27With all the prudence of a whoremonger
27:29And you
27:30I am no man
27:32I require only your attention
27:34Let me out a bad man up here
27:36I want to give him up three bits
27:38Can I get a dollar?
27:39Two bits
27:41Keep it
27:43You're too old and dirty for a man anyway
27:46So come on boys
27:47Get out here three dollars
28:13Mrs. Van Loo
28:14I have a delivery for you and your daughter
28:17Oh, well, thank you
28:18She's not receiving any visitors at the moment
28:21Baked especially for this household
28:24I'll be sure and pass that along to her
28:27From our mutual friend
28:35Shadowman is ready to proceed
28:39Well, he took his time
28:41After Bull Run, he's prepared to try anything
28:43That might hasten the end of the war
28:47Well, you can tell you're a shadow man
28:54That I will respond to him
29:04Ladies
29:11Sometimes
29:14I don't know where we get the strength to keep going
29:20As Mary Jane would say
29:24Rage
29:29Miss Lizzie
29:30I called her here to see you
29:51Elizabeth, you all right?
29:54Although
29:54I suffer as my beloved country suffers
29:57I am of sound body
29:59And mind
30:00In fine fiddle
30:02As they say
30:06That night at the theater
30:09I didn't get a chance to explain
30:11It's not necessary
30:16Elizabeth
30:19I have never met a woman of greater beauty
30:23Integrity
30:23Or spirit
30:25A woman who's opened my heart like never before
30:29But
30:29We're not on the same side
30:34No
30:35We are not
30:36It breaks my heart
30:38We're not enough to change your mind
30:41Tragically
30:43I cannot abandon friends
30:45Made over a lifetime on my home
30:47And it's our agreement
30:48No
30:49Hampton
30:51War
30:51Is tragic
30:53Clinging to the past
30:54Is tragic
30:55Allowing the bonds of friendship
30:56To trump justice
30:57Is tragic
30:58Seeing men
30:59Of courage
31:00Make wrongful decisions
31:02That
31:03Is tragic
31:05Elizabeth
31:06There's word the Union Army
31:07Is preparing a counter move
31:08You must at least allow me
31:09To take you away
31:10To some place safe
31:14I brought in to him
31:17Yeah
31:17He's outside
31:18You can ride him now
31:27My place is here
31:29With my family
31:30In Richmond
31:32Where it's always been
31:33And will always be
32:02And will always be
32:44Oh, you need to let that go, my friend.
32:49Oh, look here. Look who's looking at you.
32:54God, man, she's a married woman.
32:56Who recently moved into the Exchange Hotel.
33:00My skin.
33:06Oh, hey, better go easy on that, John.
33:09Too many more to do.
33:37The Exchange Hotel
33:42Mr. President, welcome to Richmond.
33:46Mr. President, my nephew has perished, unfortunately, and I need to send condolences to his mother.
33:51Hello there. How are you, sir?
33:53Thank you. Thank you for coming.
34:01Oh, it's Chase Morton.
34:04They turned from Washington.
34:06So, how is your baboon charm disarmously?
34:10A word, please.
34:12Inasmuch as your theatrical peregrinations take it deep into Northern Territory, affording you unique access,
34:19President Davis asked me to inquire, should the occasional message or document need to be passed on?
34:24Anything for the cells, dear boy.
34:34Look at that.
34:35Peddling her wares right out here in public.
34:51It'll be all right.
35:01Friends, friends and fellow citizens, we have decisively won our first major battle against
35:09the northern invasion, driving back the enemy to preserve the sacred soil of Virginia.
35:22I do believe we may have broken the backbone of the invasion and the spirit of the north.
35:30If God's name should be so foolish as to continue this war against our citizenry,
35:42every inch of our southern soil will be bitterly contested with bullets, blood and fire.
35:51I know that Baker man.
35:53Yeah, he forced his money aside.
35:55Nah, some time ago, some other place.
35:57He's been a nagging at me.
36:00That's for you.
36:04From Baltimore, he's that Pinkerton.
36:07Son of a bitch Baker.
36:09Bitch him.
36:10He's a goddamn spy.
36:12Mr. Blanket states that a house divided cannot stand, and for once we in the south agreed with him.
36:18We built our own house, right?
36:22Our victory has come with a dire cost.
36:27Too much praise cannot be bestowed upon our honor of death.
36:33Let us take a moment to honor and pay tribute to these brave men.
36:47The issue now is whether these two separate, proud houses can not only stand but prosper.
37:02I say yes.
37:04Yes, we can.
37:14Yes, we can.
37:19Long live our proud Confederacy.
37:21Yes, we can.
37:24Yes, we can.
37:26Yes, we can.
37:39Oh, my God.
38:19Who are they?
38:20Clark Douglas from Baltimore tried to assassinate Lincoln.
38:23How do they recognize you?
38:25I'm the one that arrested him.
38:27Baltimore.
38:28I thought only people down here wanted to kill you.
38:36I hear my pledge.
38:38Our enemies will never come to this sacred land.
38:41Never, never, never.
38:45They will not live to hear the South Way, friend, yield, yield, nay.
38:48They will be daunted by the thunder of the rebel yell.
38:58Dear sweet you, however can we combat these traitors?
39:02We shall host a lavish soiree, welcoming the Davises to their new home.
39:34To our first president and his first lady,
39:40we formally welcome you to the proud first capital of the Confederacy.
39:58Come all you sons of freedom and join our Southern band.
40:03We're gonna fight the Yankees and drive them from our land.
40:09Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon.
40:14The South is the wagon and we'll all take a ride.
40:34The South is the wagon and we'll all take a ride.
40:47Let the whole world know, despite the dogs of war, Richmond danced.
41:11I do worry about John's reputation.
41:15His absence will be the talk of Richmond.
41:19Better that he drinks in private than make a public spectacle of himself.
41:26Elizabeth.
41:32Despite these turbulent times, I always feel that life is the sweeter for having you in.
41:44Perhaps if we are to trust in our president's bold assurances,
41:48it might ward you to be a short-term engagement.
41:51Then, perhaps, we can...
41:53Still battle with our divergent beliefs?
42:03Stay safe, old friend.
42:06Well, but...
43:38What possible harm could a woman do?
43:41Tell us, General, how should we deal with union sympathizers?
43:45Treason, General, ends on the gallows.
43:52Enjoy your evening.
44:08Dear Jane, if you're having any doubts, you don't have to go through with this.
44:17No, this is why I came back.
44:20My death in Philadelphia, Africa, or anywhere else, it would have been a waste.
44:25But my death here might could be of some use.
45:00Mrs. Davis, Verena, we'd like to present a token of our appreciation for your service and sacrifice.
45:09This is Mary Jane.
45:12We raised her from birth.
45:14We trust you'll find her most amenable.
45:17I am most pleased to make your acquaintance, ma'am.
45:23So, articulate.
45:26We've been practicing our addiction all week.
45:31Superb, Mary Jane.
45:32Your best effort yet.
45:34Thank you, Mrs.
45:34You know, it still don't feel right coming off my tongue.
45:39Oh, darling, isn't that marvelous?
45:43Yeah, Mr. President, I beg to offer you a token of my appreciation as well.
45:48It's well known you're a coach for this runoff.
45:51Accept mine.
45:52He'll do you proud.
45:54It's most generous of you.
45:56It's so kind of all of you.
45:57Appreciate it.
45:59Mommy, mommy, read to us.
46:02Read us a big time story.
46:05Caroline.
46:05Mommy.
46:06You do it.
46:07I have a headache.
46:08You know I can't read, Miss Laurit.
46:10Then talk about the pictures.
46:13Come on, girl.
46:16Lord, I'm thirsty.
46:27I need no more of the shining day.
46:33We just don't remind me.
46:36Where Mr. Arsenal?
46:38Up here.
46:40Who is that?
46:42Identify yourself.
46:44You're not attending the president's dollar?
46:46Uh, given your sister-in-law's presence there, I chose to enjoy the company of John Barley Court.
46:56Oh.
46:59Dishonored breath can never stay.
47:04The girl I left behind.
47:07I'm uncertain whether to alert the authorities.
47:10Oh.
47:11Oh.
47:13Oh, I could pour you a glass of this exquisite brandy.
47:18Well, I do enjoy the taste of a stout of brandy.
47:22Well, thank you.
47:47Hey, John.
47:48Sir.
47:51Excuse me.
47:54Oh.
47:57I swear, sir.
47:58Excuse me.
48:01Mr. Secretary.
48:02I understand you would like to volunteer to be a courier for us.
48:06That is correct, sir.
48:08Mr. Stoke, the reuse voucher for you.
48:11Oh, good.
48:12How will you be able to traverse freely between the North and the South?
48:16Well, I...
48:17I...
48:17I'm from Baltimore.
48:18The Lady of the Sons of Liberty secessionists.
48:21I have worked in supporting the cause for a very long time, sir.
48:25I shall introduce you to the President.
48:27Thank you, sir.
48:28Tell me a little more about yourself.
48:30Well, Baltimore took some time to join us, but...
48:34It's part of the secessionist movement.
48:42If we don't seal the doors and set the place of fire, we could topple the entire Confederacy
48:47in one blow.
48:49I don't want my beautiful Richmond burned down in the process.
48:55Someone I can trust would be invaluable to me.
48:59You may count on me.
49:02I have every confidence in you.
49:08Good night, Christmas.
49:10Good night, Christmas.
49:16Mr. Reeves.
49:18I have congratulated you on your appointment as our new Deputy Provost Marshal.
49:25Well, I thank you, ma'am.
49:27Hmm.
49:29Missing as a book.
49:37I shall be the eyes and the ears of our fair city, making sure those in the act of iniquity
49:45will have meat to fear.
49:47We shall all sleep better with you watching over us, Mr. Reeves.
49:52We bid you adieu.
49:54Of course, please be faithful more to mr. Reeves
49:59Be aaCream for the next an hour from Mr. twisted to my coffee.
50:11No05 9 hours.
50:11I am as aware of it for this man.
50:12Half-hawn.
50:13Good night.
50:14Good night.
50:40I have to go for free.
50:42How can they just sit there now?
50:44And then what you just expected to go, you're taken away from me.
50:48Why do you have to go?
50:51God, we is cursed like hate.
50:55So you gonna live at the present house?
50:57Governor Wise says so.
51:02Don't!
51:03These white devils, they just giving us away like we is nothing but animals.
51:09Days, I work my fingers to the bone in the nights.
51:14I spread my legs and then I breed more field hands.
51:19What are you saying, Tallulah?
51:22What are you saying, Tallulah?
51:24Three months my bloods don't flow.
51:29What are you saying, Tallulah?
51:31Oh, you have my baby?
51:32It's gonna come out, dog.
51:35It don't matter which way you masterwize this property.
51:38No!
51:40No!
51:40No!
51:41No!
51:54Oh, my.
51:56Our babies are back.
51:58The rats letting them visit?
51:59They're home where they belong.
52:02Mom.
52:07Grandma!
52:09My little dreamers.
52:11Welcome home, girls.
52:13If you will.
52:14Follow me.
52:28I saw what you did tonight.
52:30I'm betting you were serving inside the Greyhouse Fairy Club.
52:34You did?
52:36You were at the party?
52:38I was in queue for your last hands.
52:41How intriguing.
52:42Mm-hmm.
52:45Now, I assume you have other placements in government and army headquarters.
52:51In process.
52:52However, there is one corridor of information in which Mother and I do not have entry.
52:59Rothens.
53:01Frequented by inebriated, loose-lipped rebel officers.
53:06Now, you expect me to bet every whore in town until I'm trying to sympathize?
53:14Well, there's service and then there's duty.
53:17You discern the difference.
53:19Well, I'll have the baker do the necessary connoissants.
53:25He's more comfortable with life on the street than I.
53:29I do look forward to a proper introduction someday.
53:33Well, Master Rock.
53:34Perhaps then you'll save me a spot on your dance card.
53:54You'll find you out, they're gonna lynch you.
53:56You know that, don't you?
53:58I expect so.
53:59They took the airport from me.
54:02I don't know what I'm going to do if something happens to you.
54:05Man, Lou, sure got some big ideas.
54:08No, this was my idea.
54:11My grandiose scheme to bring down the South.
54:15But what exactly can one Negro girl do against the whole of the Confederate government?
54:19A Negro girl smart as you?
54:21She can do about anything she wants to do.
54:24I'm no Nat Turner.
54:26Who's he?
54:28Black man slay you, just like us.
54:30Rows up the freest people, right here in Virginia.
54:33Well, what happened to him?
54:35They hanged him, cut off his head, dissected his body, and then filleted the skin off of him.
54:40And they do the same thing to you, they catch you.
54:42I don't know if y'all hear about such things.
54:45I read about them.
54:47I'm not sure I'd like this reading.
54:49If it fill your head with such awfulness.
55:04What's this?
55:08My nightmares.
55:09My nightmares.
55:17You know, when I hit Lumpkin, it felt good.
55:22Yeah, it felt good to me.
55:23I wish I'd have snapped him up the side of the head.
55:26I've been running from that rage ever since I can remember.
55:37And, you know, I can't even remember what my mother looks like.
55:46Only just the touch of her lips when she kissed me goodbye.
55:52I stood for my mammy.
55:55Right as I was born.
55:57You lucky.
55:59At least the Van Luce treat you like family.
56:02No.
56:03No matter how good the Van Luce treat me, this world still belongs to them and not us.
56:09I went to the other side of the world to realize what I already knew.
56:13There will be no place for us unless we make a stand.
56:16God don't give us no more than we can bear.
56:20And you can bear this.
56:23Reverend Garnett did say that the Lord has a plan for me.
56:27That's right.
56:28Although, if I do meet God, I like to ask him about his methods.
56:36Oh, girl.
56:39I'm going to miss you, Uncle Isham.
56:43When times get really hard, you're going to be right here in my heart to get me through.
56:51And that's where I'll always be.
56:54Right now.
57:04Wait.
57:09How can I help?
57:14Learn to read.
57:15How can I help?
57:16How can I help?
57:26You're going to read.
