You've tried it your way
for years.

:16:04
Your students can't pass
a minimum basic skills test.

:16:07
That means they can
hardly read!

:16:16
They've given me
less than one year,

:16:19
one school year to turn
this place around,

:16:22
to get those
test scores up

:16:24
so the state
will not take us over

:16:27
to perform the task
which you have failed to do-

:16:30
to educate our children!
:16:34
Forget about the way
it used to be.

:16:36
It's not
a damn democracy.

:16:38
We're in a state
of emergency,

:16:41
and my word is law!
:16:43
There's only one boss
in this place,

:16:46
and that's me,
the h-n-l-c.

:16:50
Are there
any questions?

:16:56
Mr. Wright.
:17:05
The h-n-l-c?
:17:07
The head nigger
in charge.

:17:14
Everybody, right up here,
right here.

:17:16
Check this out.
:17:22
When i want
your body...

:17:23

:17:27
Let's go.
:17:29
Right now.
:17:30
Mrs. Santos,

:17:32
What about you?
What about me?

:17:33
Sit down.
:17:35
I said sit down.
:17:36
What do they
want us for?

:17:39
I don't know.
Go.

:17:41
What do you got
to do around here

:17:44
to get picked
for something?

:17:46
Maria, sit down.
:17:47
Get down
:17:50
get down
:17:52

:17:53
