- God is black.
- Black? Everybody knows he's white.

1:08:07
The white man taught that you were
a black heathen and you believed it.

1:08:13
He taught you to worship a blond,
blue-eyed Jesus and you believed it.

1:08:18
He taught you that black
was a curse.

1:08:21
- Did you ever look up the word black
in the dictionary? - For what?

1:08:30
Come with me.
1:08:35
'Black: destitute oflight, devoid
of color, enveloped in darkness...'

1:08:41
'..utterly dismal or gloomy:
as, the future looked black.'

1:08:46
- You're good with those words.
- 'Soiled with dirt, foul...'

1:08:51
'..sullen, hostile, forbidding:
as a black day.'

1:08:56
'Foully or outrageously wicked;
as black cruelty.'

1:09:00
'Indicating disgrace, dishonor
or culpability.'

1:09:05
There are others. 'Blackmail,
blackball...' -That's something.

1:09:10
Let's look up 'white'.
1:09:15
Here. Read.
1:09:21
'White: the color of pure snow...'
1:09:25
'..reflecting all the colors of
the spectrum, the opposite of black.'

1:09:36
'Free from spotor blemish,
innocent, pure...'

1:09:46
Isn't this something! 'Without evil
intent, harmless, honest...'

1:09:52
'..honorable...' Wait a minute!
This was written by white folks!

1:09:57
- It ain't no black man's book. - Why
read it then? -The truth is there.
