:42:10

:42:15
From when he was a child...
:42:17
I knowed this day was comin'.
:42:20
"Look at that, Mama.
:42:22
Why can't I, Mama?"
:42:24
Roamin' and reachin' all over.
:42:28
I tried to learn him
like you got to learn a colored child.

:42:32
"Dass'nt. Dass'nt. Dass'nt.
That ain't for you. "

:42:35
I hit him with my hand.
He say, "So what?"

:42:38
I hit him with my shoe.
He look up at me and smile.

:42:42
I took a razor strap to him.
:42:45
That made him squint a little, but then he'd
do a funny dance and ask me for a nickel.

:42:52
I hit him with a stick
till I couldn't hit no more.

:42:56
He pulled away from me,
bust it in two and run off.

:43:00
- Eleven years old.
- Sister.

:43:03
You're getting yourself
all upset, Mrs. Jefferson.

:43:07
Why don't I put on
a pot of fresh coffee.

:43:10
Thank you, Clara.
:43:12
Got a guardian angel there.
:43:15
She been round every day
since she heard I was ailin'.

:43:18
- We're hoping with you, sister,
maybe they'll let him off.

:43:23
