Wouldn't it also be true to say
that the only reason that you seek the election...

:34:06
is to revenge yourself upon the whites
whom you now think despise you?

:34:10
That the only reason
that you want to be black...

:34:13
is because you're afraid that the white world
will not let you be white anymore?

:34:16
That you want
to use us, our votes...

:34:19
so that you can still rule
in that world that you still belong to.

:34:23
And tell us another truth, Mr. Fleury.
:34:25
In your heart, deep down inside...
:34:29
don't you still think of us as slaves?
:34:31
- As a stupid, ignorant people?
- That's a lie!

:34:33
- [Crowd Murmuring]
- No, Mr. Fleury! That is the truth!

:34:36
And the issue here is
not just one of color.

:34:39
The issue here is,
who is really best fit to represent the people?

:34:43
Who knows them the best?
Who feels for them the most?

:34:46
Who's really a part of them?
:34:48
Is it you, Mr. Fleury, or is it me?
:34:51
Now you may answer, Mr. Fleury.
:34:53
- [Man] Boyeur.! Boyeur.!
- [Crowd Chanting] Boyeur!

:34:55
Boyeur! Boyeur!
:34:57
Boyeur! Boyeur! Boyeur!
:35:01
David Boyeur!
:35:04
[Crowd Shouting]
:35:11
Boyeur! Boyeur! Boyeur!
:35:17
[Woman Laughing]
:35:25
He's right!
I'm not one of you!

:35:27
I don't belong to you!
:35:29
I don't want to be one of you!
I never did!

:35:58
All right, friends.
The meeting's over. Let's go home.
