Ms. Levias.
1:17:25
What's this?
1:17:27
The transfer
you asked for.
1:17:41
All right, people.
Here we are.
1:17:44
This is the day.
1:17:46
In one hour,
1:17:47
you're going to take an exam
administered by the state
1:17:51
to test your basic skills
1:17:53
and the quality of education
at eastside high.
1:17:56
And i want to tell you
1:17:58
what the people out there
are saying about you
1:18:01
and what they think
about your chances.
1:18:03
They say you are inferior.
1:18:05
Come on!
1:18:06
Come on!
1:18:08
Come on! Come on!
1:18:11
"You are just a bunch of niggers
and spics and poor white trash."
1:18:16
"Education is wasted on you."
1:18:21
"You cannot learn!"
1:18:23
You're lost!
1:18:27
I mean all of you.
1:18:29
I want all the white students
to stand up.
1:18:33
All my white students,
stand up.
1:18:35
Come on.
1:18:36
Stand up.
Stand up.
1:18:38
That's it.
Come on, stand up.
1:18:41
These are my white children,
1:18:44
and they're the same
as all of you.
1:18:47
They've got no place to go.
1:18:48
Otherwise, they would have
abandoned us a long time ago,
1:18:52
but they couldn't.
1:18:55
So here they are at eastside,
just like the rest of us.
1:18:59
You can sit down.
