Black August

en
00:00:13 I walk alone.
00:00:18 I am a soldier for life.
00:00:22 The battle I am fighting has no ending...
00:00:26 ...although its beginning
00:00:29 I am always standing for something...
00:00:32 ...and constantly fighting
00:00:36 I am a silver fox by day
00:00:41 I'm a soldier who has forgotten
00:00:44 ...and doesn't remember laughter.
00:00:47 There are still dreams and debts
00:00:51 I must be soldier, a solid soldier...
00:00:55 ...in order to smooth a path
00:01:00 I live at the bottom
00:01:05 I come up every now and then
00:01:09 To struggle is to go the distance.
00:01:11 To win is not to care
00:01:17 George.
00:03:54 You know? And you know, he's really
00:03:58 In this case, you wanna be clear.
00:04:00 Maybe you might wanna take a look
00:04:03 Well, I may be able to.
00:04:06 Can I take it back with me?
00:04:10 - Would you pause for just a moment?
00:04:13 Gentlemen, come with me.
00:04:18 Mr. Genet, this is Lumumba,
00:04:23 - This is Jean Genet.
00:04:26 Please continue where you left off.
00:04:29 Well, Mrs. Stender was just telling us
00:04:32 And after that
00:04:36 - Yes.
00:04:40 You got him off?
00:04:41 - Yes.
00:04:45 Yes, I've been working on
00:04:48 Yes, I've read his letters.
00:04:51 But I'm curious, though.
00:04:56 No, no, no. There is no credible evidence
00:05:01 And frankly, we're gonna blow their case
00:05:10 - Yes, I've been reading the testimony.
00:05:13 But you didn't answer my question.
00:05:17 You mean, do I think he would kill
00:05:22 Yes, I think he would.
00:05:24 But he did not murder his way
00:05:27 You have to understand...
00:05:29 ...Mr. Jackson was sentenced
00:05:31 ...for a $ 70 gas station robbery.
00:05:41 Mr. Genet, I'm sorry to interrupt.
00:05:43 But... So where do you think
00:05:47 Well...
00:05:49 ...if you would like,
00:05:52 And I can have my publisher, Gallimard,
00:05:56 Oh, yes, please. I mean, that's more than
00:06:00 We're hoping to use this case to start
00:06:06 That would just be incredibly helpful
00:06:09 What are you doing?
00:06:12 I hear you say "use"
00:06:17 White folks been using niggers
00:06:21 Does it make a difference if I say,
00:06:23 Only if you're totally committed
00:06:27 ...in the fight for their lives.
00:06:30 Make this clear as your ass
00:06:44 Yes.
00:06:46 "If I leave here alive,
00:06:49 They'll never count me
00:06:52 But I can't say that I'm normal either.
00:06:55 I've been hungry too long.
00:06:59 I've been lied to
00:07:03 They've pushed me over the line
00:07:07 - I know that... "
00:07:10 ...until they have pushed me
00:07:15 I've been the victim of so many racist
00:07:20 I can still smile now after 10 years
00:07:24 ...and the pick handles of faceless,
00:07:28 ...of anticipating and reacting
00:07:32 ...seven of them in solitary...
00:07:35 ...I can still smile sometimes.
00:07:38 But by the time this is over...
00:07:40 ...I may not be a nice person.
00:07:43 Just existing, life without joy...
00:07:47 ...without any real meaning
00:07:51 I am very tired of waking each morning...
00:07:55 ...wondering if I will be insulted,
00:08:00 Although I would not like
00:08:03 But if it is between that...
00:08:05 ...and surrendering the things
00:08:08 ...the things that allow me to hold up
00:08:13 ...then the hill can have my bones.
00:08:17 This is one nigger
00:08:21 I'll never forgive.
00:08:24 I'll never forget.
00:08:26 They are fighting upstairs now.
00:08:29 It's 11:30 a. m.
00:08:31 No black is supposed to be on the tier
00:08:35 But mistakes are made.
00:08:37 One or two blacks end up on the tier
00:08:40 ...frustrated by the living conditions
00:08:47 The whole ceiling is trembling.
00:08:50 In hand-to-hand combat we always win.
00:08:53 We lose if the pigs give them knives
00:08:58 Lunch will be delayed today.
00:09:02 The tear gas or whatever it is
00:09:07 Someone is hurt bad.
00:09:13 Mike, you know the French writer,
00:09:16 Of course, idiot, I'm a book editor.
00:09:18 He's got his publisher putting out
00:09:22 Jackson's charged
00:09:24 Heard of him. Yeah, how's it read?
00:09:26 It's fantastic. It just...
00:09:32 It's exactly what I've been looking for.
00:09:36 Play this thing down around Chopper.
00:09:38 If he knows you want it,
00:09:43 Okay, anybody else got anything for me?
00:09:46 Yeah, I got an MS from California
00:09:50 The author is accused
00:09:53 - His lawyers think he's being railroaded.
00:09:56 Come on, it's just another
00:09:58 No. Well, actually, he's a cofounder of
00:10:03 They're on the government's list
00:10:05 - Jackson was recruited by Huey Newton...
00:10:08 All right. Is that it? Let me see it.
00:10:11 It's a compilation of letters to
00:10:15 ...Angela Davis, some other women.
00:10:19 ...but that could really be something.
00:10:22 Smooth out the edges. That's your job.
00:10:27 This is fantastic.
00:10:29 This could be another Soul on Ice.
00:10:32 - Twenty-five thousand. Thirty thousand.
00:10:36 How many textbooks are you on now?
00:10:39 I'm finishing two right now.
00:10:43 All right.
00:10:44 But how do we know for certain
00:10:48 Okay, apparently he honed
00:10:51 ...reading various revolutionary theorists
00:10:55 They welded his door shut.
00:10:56 Sounds like a big stretch
00:11:02 I don't like those kinds of jokes.
00:11:06 How do we get access to this Jackson?
00:11:08 They can get me in
00:11:13 All right, get on a plane, get out there.
00:11:16 And don't let this one get away, Dryer.
00:11:21 - Go get me a sandwich.
00:12:11 Step through again, please.
00:12:17 Remove your belt, sir.
00:12:51 Watches please.
00:13:09 Don't worry about it.
00:13:18 It'll be a while before I can bring
00:13:21 He is some distance away and, of course,
00:13:25 Thank you.
00:13:30 Bullshit.
00:13:35 Sidle Jackson.
00:14:00 Listen up, warden.
00:14:16 Let's go.
00:14:52 You have two hours.
00:15:04 I got your letters.
00:15:08 I've been waiting a long time.
00:15:12 Maybe all my life, you know?
00:15:23 Fay and I have to talk over
00:15:26 ...and then we can jump right into it.
00:15:29 A man was tear-gassed to death
00:15:32 ...and I'm organizing a protest.
00:16:03 - Well, we got a lot to talk about.
00:16:07 - I got a lot of questions.
00:16:10 First, do you have any cigarettes?
00:16:13 Yeah.
00:16:15 Just...
00:16:22 I tear off the filters.
00:16:24 I ain't afraid of getting cancer.
00:16:27 I was born with it.
00:16:36 No, no, I quit a long time ago.
00:16:39 Well, you will live a long time.
00:16:41 Yeah. Okay then.
00:16:50 There, there.
00:17:07 - What the fuck is going on here?
00:17:12 I didn't write this stuff.
00:17:14 Whose handwriting is this?
00:17:17 It's mine.
00:17:22 - Who do you think you are, man?
00:17:25 I'm trying to make the MS
00:17:28 I'm not gonna have anybody
00:17:31 - Do you understand what I'm saying?
00:17:39 I didn't come this far
00:17:43 People have been trying to get me
00:17:46 They can eat shit. We'll get somebody else
00:17:50 We can't.
00:17:52 I didn't sign no contract.
00:17:54 I signed it.
00:17:58 Then you write the goddamn book.
00:18:07 Here.
00:18:13 - Is there a problem here?
00:18:17 - No, take me back to my cell.
00:18:20 - Let's go, Jackson.
00:18:25 Geor...
00:18:27 Fuck.
00:18:31 - That could have gone better.
00:18:34 I didn't rewrite him.
00:18:37 He has this raw eloquence and I'm just...
00:18:42 ...and hone it and I overdid it.
00:18:47 What is the usual process
00:18:51 I don't know, I've never...
00:18:54 What do you mean?
00:18:56 Basically, I'm a textbook editor.
00:19:01 - Textbooks?
00:19:04 I just... I've never worked on
00:19:08 Can you just talk to him?
00:19:09 Look, if you just talk to him and you
00:19:13 ...he'll see that I'm not trying
00:19:17 I will try.
00:19:21 Can you come back with me tomorrow?
00:19:23 - Yeah.
00:19:25 Let's go please.
00:19:40 Where'd you ever find him?
00:19:42 His company offered the most money
00:19:47 Since when do we make decisions
00:19:50 We need the money for the defense.
00:19:55 Can't you just give him another chance?
00:20:17 All right.
00:20:19 It wasn't easy but at least
00:20:23 Oh, Fay, thank you so much,
00:20:25 - You okay?
00:20:27 I just... You know,
00:20:44 Sit down, Shakespeare.
00:20:49 Mr. Jackson, I understand your concerns.
00:20:52 - Who told you to censor my book?
00:20:55 I'm not trying to censor anything. My
00:21:00 That's it.
00:21:02 Then why did you rewrite my opening?
00:21:06 You know...
00:21:08 ...at some point, I hope that you can
00:21:12 Because really, I did not fundamentally
00:21:15 Fundamentally.
00:21:23 It's my first time
00:21:26 And I'm just trying too hard.
00:21:30 Did you bring the manuscript?
00:21:35 Yeah.
00:21:52 Okay, I'd like to ask you
00:21:56 Just for my own perspective.
00:22:01 Can you tell me the difference, if any...
00:22:03 ...between the Black Guerilla Family
00:22:07 And I'm speaking specifically
00:22:09 ...of autonomous entities
00:22:18 The Black Panther Party...
00:22:22 ...was never intended to be...
00:22:25 ...a military force.
00:22:27 They're the political arm.
00:22:31 The Black Guerilla Family...
00:22:34 ...was destined...
00:22:36 ...to be a clandestine military branch.
00:22:39 They're separated, so one can survive
00:22:44 Where does
00:22:46 Is it mostly in prison?
00:22:47 It's only in prison, man.
00:22:51 From the belly of the beast.
00:22:52 - Two, three, four, five, six, seven.
00:22:56 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
00:23:00 - How you feel?
00:23:02 - How you feel?
00:23:03 - Looking good.
00:23:05 - Sound good.
00:23:06 - Can't stop, won't.
00:23:08 - Can't stop, won't.
00:23:09 Listen up.
00:23:11 - African people took the stand.
00:23:14 - African people took the stand.
00:23:17 - In the struggle throughout the land.
00:23:20 - African people had a plan.
00:23:23 - Seize the time, take the land.
00:23:26 - Couldn't stop.
00:23:27 - Had to win.
00:23:29 - Wouldn't stop.
00:23:30 - Till the end.
00:23:32 - Free again.
00:23:34 Tested by adversity.
00:23:36 Proven true.
00:23:38 Okay.
00:23:41 How old were you when you began
00:23:46 I was 18.
00:23:49 I was incarcerated under the term
00:23:55 I could have gotten out in one year.
00:23:58 Instead I've done 10.
00:24:00 It's more time than anybody in this state
00:24:06 How would we do this if I wasn't here?
00:24:13 Well...
00:24:14 ...usually I take authors out to lunch.
00:24:17 You know, we have editorial meetings.
00:24:20 - I guess we having that right now, huh?
00:24:35 So, what happened to all the changes
00:24:38 I changed it all back last night.
00:24:43 What do you publishers get out of this?
00:24:48 They think it will make money.
00:24:51 That's cold, man.
00:24:52 Well, book publishing, you know,
00:24:57 It doesn't necessarily stop us
00:25:01 And what would be your first step
00:25:06 The letters need background so the readers
00:25:10 Because most of them,
00:25:14 Okay.
00:25:17 Well, if there's any writing to be done,
00:25:22 Are you clear?
00:25:26 You are not gonna fuck with my book.
00:25:31 Yeah.
00:25:40 - Hey, how'd it go?
00:25:43 It's okay. Book's still alive.
00:25:45 - You two can work together?
00:25:51 Okay, all right.
00:25:56 All right, this is home.
00:25:58 Steve. This is Steve Bingham.
00:26:01 He's working on the case.
00:26:03 - Remember I told you about him?
00:26:05 Yes, great to meet you.
00:26:06 A few days after three black prisoners
00:26:09 ...the DA announces
00:26:12 Hi, Betty.
00:26:14 An hour later, a guard is strangled,
00:26:18 The authorities go straight to George.
00:26:22 Right? Then, they promise paroles
00:26:26 - I see.
00:26:28 ...they're transferred to a facility
00:26:31 - Right. Where they coach their testimony.
00:26:34 And I can't wait
00:26:37 Hey, I'd like to see the minutes
00:26:41 Absolutely, right this way.
00:26:54 Why, I heard a strangled yell
00:26:57 ...and I seen the officer being assaulted.
00:26:59 He was being held down by one cat and
00:27:11 After Jackson had him in a headlock...
00:27:13 ...Drumgo and Clutchette
00:27:15 I could see the officer's body trembling.
00:27:20 Jackson lifted him up
00:27:23 I seen him fall.
00:27:24 Yeah, motherfucker.
00:28:02 So it was the reading of Lenin,
00:28:05 - This is what inspired you to start writing.
00:28:09 ...later on.
00:28:11 What really started me writing was
00:28:16 I wanted him to know what's really
00:28:20 I feel I'm an example
00:28:28 I think if I can hold my head up
00:28:31 ...then they can hold their head up
00:28:33 You can't let anybody here think
00:28:42 You ever stole anything?
00:28:46 - I'm sorry?
00:28:50 No, not in my adult life, no.
00:28:52 But when you was young.
00:28:55 Yeah, I guarantee you'd be bored
00:28:59 - I, you know...
00:29:05 Okay.
00:29:07 When I was a kid, I used to shoplift.
00:29:10 I'd go into dime stores with these pants
00:29:13 You know, and I'd just pour stuff in.
00:29:17 And then I'd walk out of there
00:29:20 - You ever get caught?
00:29:23 This friend and I, in junior high school,
00:29:27 So we started selling these black
00:29:31 And the principal came around,
00:29:35 And, yeah, that was it.
00:29:39 Dime stores
00:29:42 Right. Well, I know, you might say
00:29:47 Yeah, I'm with you on that.
00:29:49 - Not always a blessing is it?
00:29:53 How'd you get this job, man?
00:29:57 We should talk about something else.
00:30:02 Seems to me, we do.
00:30:06 Yeah, okay.
00:30:07 Well, my first job was writing ad copy
00:30:11 And then I just moved up from there.
00:30:14 So you were what they call
00:30:17 "She was all fire, all passion.
00:30:22 Stuff like that, huh?
00:30:25 Yeah, you know,
00:30:28 We really should trade places.
00:30:30 If you wrote a blurb for my book,
00:30:34 "He was... "
00:30:35 "He was full of rage. Men feared him.
00:30:39 Not even steel and cement could contain
00:30:44 Okay, seriously, I can get you a job.
00:30:49 How'd you get this?
00:30:52 The guy who hired me
00:30:54 We knew each other
00:30:56 Harvard, huh?
00:30:59 Old boy network.
00:31:00 They got it all locked up tight.
00:31:03 - They got any blacks where you work at?
00:31:07 Mail boy.
00:31:11 Even if he was older than me,
00:31:17 Ain't no chance for you
00:31:23 Time's up.
00:31:26 Thanks for being more relaxed this time.
00:31:52 Most of these letters
00:31:57 ...and my little brother Jonathan.
00:32:01 I never sent them.
00:32:03 I don't know why, I just...
00:32:05 Sometimes you get a letter in an envelope
00:32:12 So you're a Harvard man, huh?
00:32:14 How'd you know?
00:32:16 You said so yesterday.
00:32:18 Then we spent too much time
00:32:24 What was it like there at Harvard?
00:32:26 I hated it. I'm so glad it's over.
00:32:29 But you met all those people.
00:32:32 Yeah, I met one friend.
00:32:34 So, what, you interested in enrolling?
00:32:37 Well...
00:32:39 ...I already graduated
00:32:42 It's one of those things they said
00:32:54 There's a show at the movies Saturday.
00:32:57 Some of the brothers been watching you.
00:33:00 - A lot of wasted energy, though.
00:33:05 We need brothers who can maintain their
00:33:09 I'm asking you to come
00:33:24 We stay true like a family should,
00:33:29 What can we accomplish
00:33:32 - A piece of the pie.
00:33:34 Have you ever, no matter how hard
00:33:37 ...how much you cared
00:33:40 ...been offered a piece of that
00:33:42 Has your father? His before that?
00:33:45 A piece of white America's pie.
00:33:48 We don't wanna be Bill fucking Cosby.
00:33:51 We wanna be the vanguard
00:33:55 A place where all that fire in you
00:34:00 A state where each man is given the honor
00:34:06 Can you dig that?
00:34:10 Good.
00:34:11 Because this world needs you.
00:34:18 I know you got some good books already,
00:34:22 Keep reading. Keep writing.
00:34:29 These were written around the same
00:34:37 Fay told me by that point
00:34:40 ...than the average inmate
00:34:43 Can we talk about that?
00:34:46 One-year-to-life, man.
00:34:51 All you have to do is surrender your will
00:34:57 One-year-to-life,
00:35:02 ...it keeps convicts down.
00:35:04 Keeps a convict
00:35:08 ...from criticizing his methods.
00:35:11 But the sentence is at minimum,
00:35:15 Right?
00:35:19 Clean time did nothing for me, man.
00:35:22 They can tell when you only pretend
00:35:27 It is hard to hide one's pride
00:35:31 At least it was for me.
00:35:34 You think your parole is denied
00:35:36 ...organizing black prisoners.
00:35:40 No one has done more time than me
00:35:44 I'm a political prisoner.
00:35:46 They're afraid
00:35:51 I'd like to visit your mother
00:35:54 I've already been trading messages
00:36:04 All right.
00:36:07 You gonna see my brother Jonathan?
00:36:09 There's a chance he'll be there
00:36:15 Well...
00:36:17 :::you::::
00:36:19 - You send my love to Angela, would you?
00:36:21 All right.
00:36:23 When you speak to Jonathan,
00:36:27 - Why not?
00:36:32 But he's only 16 and he's sensitive about
00:36:41 Any advice for meeting
00:36:44 Man, my mother is a trip.
00:36:48 She'd been happy to have me locked up
00:36:53 I wasn't allowed to go outside
00:36:57 Then she sent me to Catholic school.
00:36:59 Dress me up in that silly-ass uniform
00:37:04 When I would protest,
00:37:06 He'd beat me
00:37:08 A table leg, belts. You name it.
00:37:12 I think they were just terrified of me
00:37:17 And he was terrified of going berserk
00:37:23 Sometimes I feel that they thought I was
00:37:29 My mother used to always say
00:37:33 "Boy, you are so handsome and someday
00:37:37 And a part of you, you really start
00:37:41 Until you get out in the streets...
00:37:45 ...and you're just another nigger.
00:38:16 No. No, no, no, Georgie, do it like this.
00:38:19 Break it into little pieces
00:38:24 You'll make a better impression
00:38:26 Not like all those poor kids
00:38:52 Hi. David Dryer.
00:38:56 I'm Georgia.
00:38:58 How do you do?
00:38:59 I'm fine, thank you.
00:39:06 Have a seat.
00:39:17 That's George's brother Jonathan.
00:39:22 So tell me exactly
00:39:26 Well, George told me about
00:39:30 And I'd like to take a look at those letters
00:39:35 What did he say about those letters?
00:39:38 Not too many specifics
00:39:41 So, George said it was okay
00:39:43 - Yes.
00:39:46 Yeah.
00:39:47 Yeah, I swear.
00:39:59 Hi.
00:40:00 - How's he doing?
00:40:05 They won't let me in anymore.
00:40:07 I envy you, being able to see him.
00:40:10 Well, he's okay. He talks about you a lot.
00:40:13 In fact, I'd like to talk to you
00:40:17 - I'd like to get your perspective...
00:40:27 Well, which ones do you wanna see?
00:40:31 All of them, if I could.
00:40:33 Mr. Dryer, there are some things
00:40:37 ...that don't belong in a book.
00:40:41 Well, I can assure you that your end
00:40:44 ...will remain entirely private.
00:40:52 I'll keep the originals.
00:40:54 - You'll make copies.
00:40:56 Good, I wouldn't wanna lose them.
00:41:00 My son is an exceptional writer.
00:41:03 - He's also an exceptional human being.
00:41:07 He is that, ma'am.
00:41:54 That's why each day we come here...
00:41:58 ...and take Eucharist
00:42:01 Because each of us together
00:42:06 A common brotherhood under God.
00:42:10 And the blood of Christ running through
00:42:15 - They show us that he is...
00:42:18 ...makes me think you are a sick woman.
00:42:22 I'm sorry you made me go
00:42:26 Why did you do it, Mama?
00:42:29 You have failed me.
00:42:32 Those institutions taught propaganda.
00:42:35 They taught what to think,
00:42:39 Blacks in those schools, those churches,
00:42:43 ...for they learn the ways
00:42:49 The Western world has reduced all life
00:42:53 All natural feelings have been lost.
00:42:57 But I mustn't complain of such things.
00:43:02 Like the rest of you,
00:43:06 I should smile and sing.
00:43:08 Perhaps I should thank the Lord
00:43:11 ...that I have not one moment's
00:43:20 Patience has its limits.
00:43:22 Take it too far and it's cowardice.
00:43:26 My people have been refused the right
00:43:31 All this has left an emptiness
00:43:34 A void, a vacuum that must
00:43:42 Please let Jonathan know these truths.
00:43:48 Allow me to teach him what I can, so
00:43:57 George.
00:44:23 My name is Georgia Jackson
00:44:28 - One of the men who they're trying to kill.
00:44:30 - That's right, that's right.
00:44:34 I wanna tell you that I know my son.
00:44:37 He's a beautiful human being.
00:44:39 I know he never could have done
00:44:42 - We know.
00:44:44 What they are trying to do
00:44:47 ...who wanna stand up for their rights.
00:44:49 They lynch them. They put them
00:44:54 - You tell it.
00:44:57 I'm asking you, please, help my son.
00:45:00 - We will.
00:45:02 - And this woman's son.
00:45:05 - We're with you all the way.
00:45:08 We're two black women...
00:45:10 ...who love our children...
00:45:13 - And don't wanna see them killed.
00:45:16 - No, you don't wanna see it.
00:45:18 - Yeah, that's right.
00:45:21 - Go free.
00:45:24 Soledad Brothers.
00:45:25 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't know
00:45:29 Well, I play but not well.
00:45:32 Well...
00:45:33 ...whether you do or not...
00:45:36 ...I'll burn you.
00:45:38 Okay, I'll be ready.
00:45:46 Listen...
00:45:48 ...did my brother...
00:45:52 Yeah, he said you were
00:45:56 And that I should not ask your age...
00:45:58 ...because you were so much more mature
00:46:09 So when are you seeing him next?
00:46:11 Pretty soon. I'm flying back
00:46:16 Well, when you do,
00:46:23 Tell him my mom sends her love too.
00:46:36 David, I want you to meet
00:46:41 - This here is Lumumba.
00:46:43 Lumumba, David. David, Lumumba.
00:46:45 And Fred. Fred's the chairman
00:46:50 David.
00:46:52 David's the editor who's working
00:46:55 I know, man. We're looking forward to it.
00:47:01 Man, listen to me.
00:47:03 You know, them white boys.
00:47:05 Every time you turn around
00:47:07 ...the minds of the young brothers.
00:47:09 So keep your dadgum eyes open.
00:47:14 Always protect your black queen.
00:47:20 We'll be in touch.
00:47:30 Nice guys.
00:47:33 I'm sorry about that.
00:47:37 You all heard her, folks.
00:47:39 It's not enough to be innocent.
00:47:41 - Yeah, yeah.
00:47:45 You have got to have money
00:47:48 For lawyers, investigators
00:47:53 - That's right, brother, that's right.
00:47:57 And I wanna see 5s and 10s and 20s
00:48:04 Don't no one leave because our
00:48:09 Let's give it up for Angela Davis.
00:48:14 - All right.
00:48:16 - Right on.
00:48:20 Right on.
00:48:21 I'd like to talk at first
00:48:25 ...that we hear so much about.
00:48:28 - I'll tell you why he's absent.
00:48:30 - Because he's in prison.
00:48:33 - Why is he in prison? Because of drugs.
00:48:36 Why drugs?
00:48:38 To blunt the pain of being black.
00:48:41 - The pain of being poor.
00:48:44 - The pain of being outcast.
00:48:46 Because society doesn't let him
00:48:50 That's right, that's right.
00:48:51 And even if he could get
00:48:54 ...he still couldn't find a decent job.
00:48:58 - And it's not because society doesn't care.
00:49:02 It cares enough to perpetuate
00:49:06 ...which blights the lives
00:49:09 - That's right. That's right.
00:49:13 - Every black child.
00:49:16 It cares enough to build
00:49:22 And it cares enough about
00:49:26 - Yeah.
00:49:28 - Free the Soledad Brothers.
00:49:31 - All power to the people.
00:49:42 - So he looked all right?
00:49:46 Because for a while there, I thought
00:49:50 Too pale.
00:49:54 Did any of my uncles try to give you
00:49:57 Yeah, but I stayed away.
00:50:00 You're a smart man.
00:50:03 What else?
00:50:05 Just this.
00:50:24 So I'd like to choose a letter
00:50:28 ...leading up
00:50:32 All right.
00:50:34 You've already stated your respect
00:50:40 I'm curious about
00:50:45 Well...
00:50:46 ...we work well together.
00:50:50 We were friends.
00:50:52 With him, I first realized...
00:50:55 ...how to organize the brothers,
00:51:01 Pick your man and go.
00:51:28 After that, happened, man,
00:51:32 We had to. They were one step away
00:51:38 And we watched, we waited for them
00:51:42 ...who had killed those
00:51:47 I had already done a year
00:51:50 I figured a three-time murderer...
00:51:53 ...would get some kind of punishment,
00:51:57 There was still a shred of
00:52:01 In a lot of the younger brothers as well...
00:52:03 ...but we would have never admitted it.
00:52:09 Thank you for your time away from post
00:52:12 Your cooperation
00:52:15 ...has helped produce
00:52:18 Now, in this incident in Soledad
00:52:22 ...the inmates killed were involved in the
00:52:27 This officer's fire prevented this
00:52:31 The inquiry's ruling:
00:52:34 Justifiable homicide.
00:52:39 These dudes who call themselves
00:52:41 ...were gonna lynch a black guy
00:52:45 Pigs put them up to it.
00:52:47 They got ropes and knives and stuff and
00:52:51 When I saw what was happening...
00:52:54 ...there were 20 of them.
00:52:56 But I'm the one charged with assault
00:52:59 That's how it works here,
00:53:10 Yeah, motherfucker.
00:53:22 It could have been anyone, man.
00:53:25 Even the white guys we were fighting
00:53:29 Clearly, someone in Soledad
00:53:34 What was that message?
00:53:36 If they were gonna off us
00:53:38 ...we make sure the other side
00:53:43 All the convicts were glad it happened.
00:53:45 All of them, man. Black, white, whatever.
00:53:50 I've read the grand jury testimony.
00:53:53 It's...
00:53:54 ...bullshit.
00:53:56 It seems completely contradictory.
00:54:01 You're gonna get out of here.
00:54:04 Nobody knows what happened in that wing,
00:54:10 In a place with so many rats
00:54:13 ...you would never kill a pig
00:54:19 In that grand jury testimony, only
00:54:23 ...is that there were three men
00:54:26 And those three men were told
00:54:30 - You understand what I'm saying?
00:54:34 - Time's up.
00:54:37 - It's been maybe 20 minutes.
00:54:41 Yeah, then you made me wait 40 minutes
00:54:45 Please, sir. I have your signature
00:54:56 I'll see you soon, man.
00:54:59 Yeah.
00:55:10 You some kind of third-world traitor?
00:55:12 You know the routine, killer.
00:55:15 Man, one day the unjust will be
00:55:20 Hey.
00:55:25 - Hey, stop. Hey, you fucking stop.
00:55:30 - Get him off of me.
00:55:33 - Let him go.
00:55:36 - You ain't shit, man.
00:55:38 - Get him up.
00:55:47 I couldn't believe it.
00:55:51 I'm yelling and I was banging on the door
00:55:55 I mean, they just didn't...
00:55:59 Listen, I've seen that before.
00:56:01 You have to remember that George
00:56:05 And tomorrow I will file a writ
00:56:09 ...and we'll call a press conference.
00:56:13 Okay. That's all we can do.
00:56:25 You'll have to visit here.
00:56:28 Mr. Jackson will be down in a moment.
00:57:29 - So you saw that, huh?
00:57:32 I heard you shouting.
00:57:35 You gave me heart, man.
00:57:38 Next time I'll take out the whole lot
00:57:41 I did that for you, you know.
00:57:45 Next time why don't you give me
00:57:48 So you don't scare me to death.
00:57:55 I'll check this...
00:57:57 Hey, those are legal papers.
00:58:00 These papers are going to the warden.
00:58:18 I'll be right back.
00:58:27 Dear David...
00:58:30 ...one of the greatest writers of us all,
00:58:33 People respect the expression of dignity
00:58:38 ...who refuse to bow to the weapons
00:58:44 I salute your resolve to gain back
00:58:49 ...the memorialized words of one righteous
00:58:55 George.
00:59:05 Good job.
00:59:07 Good job.
00:59:09 Let's get back to work, shall we?
00:59:19 - Mom, I'm gonna go out, okay?
00:59:22 I'm gonna go out.
00:59:24 - What?
00:59:27 Jonathan, you haven't done
00:59:31 First of all, you gotta stop spying
00:59:34 - I still feel like a little baby in this house.
00:59:38 Look, I'm old enough to do
00:59:42 Can I go out now?
00:59:47 Can I go out now?
01:00:23 This is a government filibuster.
01:00:27 It's a government filibuster.
01:00:29 Any kind of activity that takes place on
01:00:34 ...that's the government.
01:00:36 Any kind of dilly-dallying,
01:00:39 Any kind of pussy-footing,
01:00:42 Any kind of act that's designed
01:00:46 ...you and me right now
01:00:50 ...that's the government
01:00:52 And any time you find the government
01:00:57 ...to violate the citizenship
01:01:02 ...then you are wasting your time...
01:01:04 ...going to that government
01:01:07 Instead, you have to take that...
01:01:09 - Hey, what's going on?
01:01:12 - Welcome to the revolution.
01:01:15 Crimes that it is guilty of today.
01:01:19 So those of us whose political
01:01:22 ...is Black Nationalism...
01:01:24 - Have become involved
01:01:27 We have injected ourselves
01:01:30 - You got a nice place here.
01:01:33 - From the level of civil rights
01:01:36 - Hold up a sec, I gotta get something.
01:01:39 - On the level of civil rights,
01:01:43 You're going to his court expecting him
01:01:46 He created the problem.
01:01:49 You don't take your case to the criminal.
01:02:00 You'd be the kid who was walking
01:02:04 I don't get by any means necessary.
01:02:07 Now, I recall your philosophy.
01:02:13 What we need is to create
01:02:15 ...start taking control of the situation.
01:02:18 - This is your opportunity...
01:02:21 - You okay.
01:02:25 I'm gonna beat the damn gold claw.
01:02:28 So we need to fight the pack.
01:02:32 - Hey, brother.
01:02:33 Great to see you, come on.
01:02:40 This here is Jonathan.
01:02:42 He's Comrade George's younger brother.
01:02:51 It's good to see you, man.
01:02:53 - You too.
01:02:56 ...they tried to take me through
01:03:02 At first, I didn't know
01:03:04 Hair, mouth. Tongue up.
01:03:08 Okay, put your hands back through.
01:03:10 I thought my assassination
01:03:13 Turns out it was my 10th annual
01:03:17 What was the judgment of the board?
01:03:21 Well, I won't be seeing Ghana
01:03:27 I was trying to count how many doors
01:03:31 There's one for my cell.
01:03:34 Two by the time
01:03:38 Five as I got out into the hallway.
01:03:44 You don't even know
01:03:49 It's as if the entire system is designed
01:03:53 ...whatever humanity that you come
01:03:58 For a guy like me it's like the entire
01:04:03 I've seen some guys and they got "fuck
01:04:08 One guy even had it tattooed
01:04:11 He had "fuck the world" on his forehead?
01:04:15 Guys like that know the world
01:04:18 They know they are victims...
01:04:19 ...they just can't put their finger on
01:04:24 - Maybe our little book can help with that.
01:04:28 Yeah, maybe it can.
01:04:30 How are we doing?
01:04:32 We're getting close, George.
01:04:34 You and I, we just have
01:04:36 I just wanna let you know...
01:04:38 ...that I've given you complete discretion
01:04:42 I'm not getting much sleep these days.
01:04:44 I'm starting to see shit
01:04:57 - Hello?
01:05:00 - Yes.
01:05:02 You lied to me.
01:05:04 How could you do that?
01:05:07 You took the only thing that I had.
01:05:09 That was between George and me.
01:05:12 The people that put that book
01:05:15 No, I'm completely responsible.
01:05:18 Nobody ever showed it to me.
01:05:21 - Specifically, what is it that bothers you?
01:05:25 - The way it's put together.
01:05:28 We're less than two weeks
01:05:30 Well, there is something I can do.
01:05:33 I can go to the radio and say it's all
01:05:37 I don't think George would like that.
01:05:40 I'm gonna see him tomorrow.
01:05:42 I'm gonna tell him what it is
01:05:45 Mrs. Jack...
01:05:53 Did you hear that?
01:06:04 - Can she do anything to stop the book?
01:06:06 But she can do a lot of damage
01:06:11 Well, you tell her if she does anything,
01:06:16 ...to damage the book...
01:06:18 ...I will never speak to her again.
01:06:22 Okay.
01:06:38 Well, if it ain't the Ku Klux clowns.
01:06:45 You ever hate yourself?
01:06:49 Do I ever do anything else?
01:06:52 It's one of the major luxuries
01:06:58 You know, I get the feeling you'd even
01:07:06 Don't concern yourself with that.
01:07:09 Just make sure my deal stays together.
01:07:40 - Hello?
01:07:43 - He's not here, can I take a message?
01:07:46 Just tell him the people's justice
01:07:52 That was him.
01:10:29 Okay, gentlemen, we're taking over.
01:10:35 All right, everybody, stay together.
01:10:37 Stay together. Eyes up front.
01:10:41 Here we go.
01:10:44 Keep it moving, people.
01:10:52 Quicken the pace a little bit, huh?
01:10:56 Let's go, people.
01:10:57 Keep it together.
01:11:00 - You gotta watch her, okay?
01:11:02 No. You gotta be listening to me.
01:11:34 - How many?
01:11:36 Everything happened so fast.
01:11:40 Keep it together.
01:11:42 There you go. There you go.
01:11:47 You can take our pictures.
01:11:50 We are the revolutionaries.
01:11:59 Free the Soledad Brothers by 3:00
01:12:04 We don't have the authority
01:12:11 You cover the left and the rear, okay?
01:12:15 - Back them off.
01:12:17 Back them off!
01:12:23 You guys stay together.
01:12:25 Keep your fucking heads up front.
01:12:30 Goddamn.
01:12:33 Okay, okay.
01:12:35 In you go. Open up the van.
01:12:37 In you go. Don't look at me.
01:12:52 Fuck.
01:12:54 - What's the shot?
01:12:56 Here we go. Here we go.
01:12:58 Don't fire. Don't fire. Hold it.
01:13:06 Hold it, boys. Do not fire.
01:13:08 There's too many friendlies in there.
01:13:14 Okay. They're holding off.
01:13:47 Dear Joan...
01:13:49 ...we reckon all time in the future
01:13:55 Man-child, black man-child
01:14:01 He was free for a while.
01:14:04 I guess that's more than most of us
01:14:08 I want people to wonder
01:14:13 ...terrible, vindictive, cold,
01:14:18 ...courage in one hand...
01:14:20 ...the machine gun in the other.
01:14:23 Scourge of the unrighteous.
01:14:26 An ox for the people to ride.
01:14:30 Cold and calm though.
01:14:33 All right, gentlemen...
01:14:35 ...I'm taking over now.
01:14:39 I can't go any further.
01:14:41 It would just be a love story
01:14:45 ...this world has had the privilege
01:14:47 And it's just not that popular or safe...
01:14:51 ...to say I love him.
01:14:55 Revolution.
01:15:05 Now in there.
01:15:24 Can you tell us something
01:15:28 All he would talk about was George.
01:15:31 He felt George was going to be killed
01:15:34 ...if he wasn't killed in prison.
01:15:38 He knew there was no justice
01:15:42 A lot of times...
01:15:44 ...he'd go to the hearings...
01:15:45 ...he'd get up, he'd go out
01:15:53 It got to a point
01:15:57 And my baby really liked to eat.
01:16:02 One night in June...
01:16:06 ...he said, "Mama, if I die...
01:16:09 ...I want you to know
01:16:12 Do you know where Angela is?
01:16:15 - Your other son, was he involved?
01:16:24 There's your stamps.
01:16:28 What are you doing?
01:16:33 What I would call a stroke of genius.
01:16:54 Hey.
01:16:56 They think that you
01:16:58 And they've traced
01:17:01 Stay at the defense committee house.
01:17:03 I'll call them and tell them
01:17:06 Can you delay that trip to New York?
01:17:10 All right, good.
01:17:12 Your author's gonna need you.
01:17:31 I'm David.
01:17:33 Fay told us you were coming.
01:17:57 Jesus.
01:18:01 Oh, that?
01:18:03 It got shot out the day before yesterday.
01:18:07 We think it was the pigs.
01:18:33 Nobody's here now. But they'll all
01:18:38 - Against charges of assaulting
01:18:41 A woman saw a young man
01:18:46 ...and sat down in the spectator section.
01:18:48 The deputy said the same man had inquired
01:18:52 ...and remembered his last name
01:18:55 Court clerk Frank Kirby tells
01:18:57 I am leaving the case.
01:19:02 Look, there's a razor blade
01:19:07 "For a chicken who betrays,
01:19:10 - I'm out. I'm out.
01:19:13 - I gotta go.
01:19:15 I don't know.
01:19:21 They're accusing me of stealing
01:19:27 Me.
01:19:30 It's crazy. No one would believe that.
01:19:34 You don't understand.
01:19:40 Eleven people have died
01:19:43 Eleven people. I can't be one of them.
01:19:49 I can't do it.
01:19:58 You have to tell George what...
01:20:04 It's okay, it's okay.
01:20:10 We have no visiting rooms.
01:20:11 You'll have to visit with Mr. Jackson
01:20:14 Guard Williams will escort you. Let's go.
01:20:25 Push.
01:20:28 Come on. Come on, push.
01:20:33 Get the money.
01:20:35 Get that money. Get that money.
01:21:11 Sidle the rec room.
01:21:31 Sidle Jackson.
01:22:09 Mr. Jackson.
01:22:11 I'm sorry about you brother.
01:22:15 Because of updated security,
01:22:27 - It's good to see you, man.
01:22:46 So they got my little brother, huh?
01:22:51 None of us have slept back there
01:22:55 We've all been listening to the radio.
01:23:05 Oh, you see,
01:23:16 I need something to take my mind
01:23:24 Oh, I recognize that, yeah.
01:23:30 Did you have to fix it up a lot, man?
01:23:40 At least I never thought I was.
01:23:50 Did they shoot him up real bad, man?
01:23:53 No.
01:23:58 You know, it was supposed to be
01:24:02 No one was supposed to get hurt.
01:24:09 You know, I sent him in there, right?
01:24:16 I mean, to think that all that I have done
01:24:22 I mean, I have not shed a tear
01:24:35 They were on their way to the airport,
01:24:39 So they would know exactly
01:24:41 No one was supposed to get hurt, man.
01:24:43 They needed those hostages
01:24:48 ...to trade them in for our freedom.
01:24:52 Was someone else
01:24:55 No, man. You got it all wrong.
01:24:58 There were supposed to be 11 others.
01:25:00 Our intelligence confirms
01:25:07 And when he found out that they weren't
01:25:21 Did you read what he said, man?
01:25:26 "Okay, gentlemen, hands up.
01:25:29 We are taking over. "
01:25:32 Man, that's so beautiful.
01:25:36 My brother and a Chinese
01:25:48 They will live to regret it.
01:25:53 I'll see to that.
01:26:09 I guess it must be hard for you
01:26:12 ...how I haven't shed a tear.
01:26:17 But I know...
01:26:20 ...that, you know,
01:26:25 He's going down in history.
01:26:31 A true revolutionary.
01:26:35 In his highest stage of development.
01:26:57 Hi, David.
01:27:00 - You got a minute?
01:27:04 I wanna show you something.
01:27:08 - Is that me?
01:27:11 In 1957, you were close friends
01:27:15 ...who were later indicted
01:27:18 I barely knew those guys.
01:27:21 What the hell is this anyway?
01:27:23 You've had a history of contact with men
01:27:27 No, they were just beat writers, okay?
01:27:29 They were unfairly blacklisted.
01:27:31 Yeah. Lucky you didn't end up
01:27:34 Who are you?
01:27:35 Hey, I'm sorry.
01:27:37 Maybe we got off
01:27:39 We wanna help you, Mr. Dryer.
01:27:43 We could take you in right now
01:27:45 ...as a member of Jackson's legal team.
01:27:48 But we're not gonna do that.
01:27:51 I'd say this will all blow over...
01:27:52 ...if a certain book's publication
01:27:58 I won't do that.
01:28:01 - You won't?
01:28:04 I'd say you have way too much to lose
01:28:09 I'll talk to you real soon.
01:28:16 Dryer, what in the hell is going on?
01:28:20 The feds just came through here,
01:28:23 They can get the judge to order a cease
01:28:28 Yeah.
01:28:30 Because they're bullshiting, okay?
01:28:33 Seriously, no, just... Don't.
01:28:36 Just don't do anything, okay?
01:28:42 We're hours from going to press. You...
01:28:46 Goddamn it.
01:28:48 Look.
01:28:50 If you fucking cancel printing...
01:28:51 ...okay, I swear to God, I'm gonna
01:28:55 Every last shred of energy suing you...
01:28:57 ...and smearing
01:28:59 You understand that?
01:29:30 You like the cover?
01:29:33 - Yeah.
01:29:36 - Yeah, it's good.
01:29:38 Okay, the reviews
01:29:40 I got one right here
01:29:44 "One of the finest pieces
01:29:47 Summarizes 300 years of rage
01:29:53 What do you think of that?
01:29:56 Who's this girl drinking champagne here?
01:29:59 No, I didn't.
01:30:01 All these fine hippie chicks running around,
01:30:05 You ain't taking care of business?
01:30:07 No, I guess not.
01:30:10 I'll try better next time.
01:30:15 - Good, huh?
01:30:17 Congratulations.
01:30:21 Thank you, man.
01:30:29 Sidle Jackson.
01:30:35 Warden says you have to give up that book.
01:30:40 If you don't surrender it,
01:30:51 Come on in and get it.
01:31:16 There are claims
01:31:18 How do you respond to that?
01:31:22 Well, I mean, you folks seem to wanna
01:31:26 - No, I wrote every word.
01:31:30 Some people are comparing you
01:31:34 Your book is being translated
01:31:37 And more translations are on the way.
01:31:39 How does your fame affect you
01:31:43 I have no concern for personal fame.
01:31:48 I reserve it for my people.
01:31:53 Man, my book is a weapon.
01:31:57 I'm just gonna continue
01:32:01 ...until there's some real freedom
01:32:04 ...and until dungeons like the one
01:32:12 Have you heard that Angela Davis
01:32:16 And a man was arrested
01:32:29 This interview is over.
01:32:33 Take me back.
01:32:37 Take me back.
01:32:39 Sidle Jackson.
01:32:52 Where's my picture?
01:32:55 Where's my typewriter?
01:32:58 Give me back my shit.
01:33:00 - You had no right.
01:33:03 Give me my typewriter back, man.
01:33:06 What's wrong with you, man?
01:33:10 Motherfucker.
01:33:16 The major obstacle to a united left
01:33:22 Racism is still alive.
01:33:24 There are three categories
01:33:28 The overt, self-satisfied racist
01:33:33 ...the self-interdicting racist
01:33:36 ...in spite of his best efforts...
01:33:39 ...and the unconscious racist, who has
01:33:44 Too much black blood has flowed
01:33:47 ...between the chasm
01:33:51 It's fundamentally unfair to expect
01:33:55 ...between the various kinds
01:33:59 Blacks must understand racism's presence
01:34:04 It is a system that must be crushed...
01:34:06 ...before it continues to manufacture new
01:34:10 ...of both class and race.
01:34:16 George.
01:34:23 How you doing?
01:34:28 I don't know.
01:34:29 I mean, so long as I had no hope,
01:34:34 It's like the hope that's killing me.
01:34:42 That the illusion of that I'll never get out
01:34:53 Except on the days that you here,
01:34:59 You know?
01:35:02 That's my reality.
01:35:04 Closing in on me more and more.
01:35:07 I mean, at night...
01:35:10 ...I'm dreaming about being buried alive,
01:35:14 Sometimes I see Jonathan.
01:35:16 No, you're gonna be all right.
01:35:21 You've got plenty of legal support
01:35:23 And after you're acquitted, you're gonna
01:35:27 Hey, I wish I was around
01:35:31 Excuse me?
01:35:32 You know, I thought that...
01:35:35 Knew that Jonathan thought they would
01:35:40 I'm certain of it, that he didn't know.
01:35:42 We always give them fascists
01:35:48 Yeah.
01:35:51 Do you understand that there cannot be
01:35:58 No, I'm not... I'm not really sure that I do.
01:36:01 I mean, not all revolutions
01:36:04 Maybe in your history.
01:36:07 But in mine, you learn pretty quick,
01:36:11 ...whose mentality is built around a gun.
01:36:16 You can't reason with that, man.
01:36:19 You just gotta grip him by the throat.
01:36:22 There's only one way to reason
01:36:29 You hit him where it hurts.
01:36:31 Do you understand?
01:36:38 See, nice folks like you
01:36:41 You know?
01:36:44 You've never been pushed
01:36:47 You've never had the things...
01:36:49 ...that make life worth living for
01:37:03 Look, man, we don't wanna cut
01:37:07 To deprive a man of his life
01:37:10 But we must weigh things
01:37:14 I hear military men say things
01:37:16 This is the military, David.
01:37:20 And the army of liberation is gonna
01:37:24 That's why the pigs are shitting bricks.
01:37:27 Because this is the revolution
01:37:33 Nice folks like you are either with us
01:37:38 Well.
01:37:39 The first thing that we have to do
01:37:43 Then once you're out of this place,
01:37:46 You can lead this revolution.
01:37:52 What? What's wrong?
01:37:54 I can't go to trial.
01:37:56 Why not? No.
01:37:59 You should see how confident
01:38:01 They're almost positive
01:38:05 I can win.
01:38:06 But I'd have to deny I had anything
01:38:10 So?
01:38:13 I can't do that. I do not want to do that.
01:38:21 I'm not gonna stand up in front
01:38:25 ...and deny I had anything to do
01:38:29 Man...
01:38:30 ...this system needs to know that they
01:38:34 ...and not have any repercussions.
01:38:36 They need to know that the crimes
01:38:40 ...need to be dealt with.
01:38:42 It will not be forgotten.
01:38:46 That the hell that they have made
01:38:51 Okay. Okay, what?
01:38:55 You know what will happen. I'd get
01:39:00 ...in front of my father, my brother,
01:39:09 That's...
01:39:14 You know, I just...
01:39:16 I used to not believe...
01:39:20 ...in the existence of a no-win situation.
01:39:25 Who said anything about a no-win
01:39:28 I just been trying really hard
01:39:30 I just...
01:39:33 I don't really know if I can anymore.
01:39:35 Yes, you can. You have to, man.
01:39:36 We would have never gotten out
01:39:40 You inspired me to keep on writing.
01:39:43 I would have never been able to do it
01:39:48 Time's up.
01:39:52 When you coming again?
01:39:54 I don't know. L...
01:39:57 I have to go to New York this week.
01:40:00 Well, I appreciate these meetings,
01:40:05 Well.
01:40:08 We'll do more books then.
01:40:11 There you go.
01:40:13 So long, brother.
01:40:32 Hey, David.
01:40:34 Power to the people, man.
01:40:45 This damnable rhetoric that goes on by
01:40:52 ...does a great deal of harm.
01:40:54 This irresponsible kind of blathering
01:40:57 ...and "kill the pig"
01:41:00 And right through there.
01:41:06 Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Anderson.
01:41:08 You've been taken off the list
01:41:12 - By whose orders?
01:41:16 This is bullshit.
01:41:18 But this is the pig's house
01:41:25 Steve, I got the final edits to
01:41:30 - Can you take care of it for me?
01:41:33 Thanks.
01:41:36 For me, time has come to pass over.
01:41:41 It's time for me to become what I am.
01:41:44 Do you know the feeling
01:41:47 ...of accepting your rage
01:41:52 You see, I have always been an adversary,
01:41:58 I never believed for one minute
01:42:02 Or even cared about me in any way
01:42:07 I don't believe in their benevolence.
01:42:10 I do believe in their cupidity,
01:42:15 ...and their tyrannous lust
01:42:19 I don't believe in a long life.
01:42:22 I won't live to remember it anyway.
01:42:25 I forget it when I sleep at night.
01:42:28 And one day I will forget it altogether.
01:42:31 I don't intend to give them
01:42:35 The time has come for me
01:42:39 ...my own judge...
01:42:41 ...and my own jury.
01:42:44 George.
01:43:07 For escort.
01:43:19 Bingham's disappearance immediately
01:43:22 ...seemed to support the charge that
01:43:27 We are satisfied now
01:43:31 And since we found the wig
01:43:33 ...we can now tie in
01:43:37 - What the fuck's under your hair?
01:43:40 - Open the door.
01:43:43 Open the door.
01:43:46 Open the cells, man. Open the cells.
01:43:49 - I can't. I can't work the cell key.
01:43:52 - Open the cells. Open the cells.
01:43:56 Open the cells up.
01:43:58 The dragon has come. We're taking over.
01:44:01 If you're with me come out your cells.
01:44:05 - Open it up.
01:44:07 Get that motherfucker over here.
01:44:28 George, a decision has to be made about
01:44:32 They've seen too much.
01:44:36 We cannot take anyone's future
01:44:38 Leave no hostile witnesses.
01:44:41 Go, go, go.
01:47:31 We must never forget the element
01:47:36 As if we have always been authentic
01:47:44 The reality is that history,
01:47:49 ...shall determine our level
01:47:54 ...or if we were merely reactionary
01:48:00 George.
01:48:01 Comrade Lumumba.
01:48:04 We got a little something for you.
