:29:05
I would be a warrior-scholar.
:29:08
I boxed. I went to school.
:29:10
I began reading
W.E.B DuBois, Richard Wright.
:29:17
Move, tier one! Move it!
:29:29
So I gave up
all the worthless luxuries...
:29:31
that most inmates crave--
:29:34
the girlie books, fags,
cigarettes, the movies.
:29:38
I hated them.
:29:40
In fact, I hated everyone.
I didn't even speak English.
:29:42
I spoke hate,
and its verbs were fists.
:29:51
I made up my mind
to turn my body...
:29:54
into a weapon that would
eventually set me free...
:29:58
or kill anyone who sought
to keep me in prison.
:30:16
On September 21 , 1961...
:30:19
I was released,
and I vowed upon everything holy...
:30:22
never to come back to prison again.
:30:31
I had spent almost half my time
on this Earth...
:30:35
in jail.
:30:55
Hey, come on, Lesra.
Time to get up. Breakfast, buddy.
:30:59
Yeah. Yeah, all right.
Yeah, I'm up. I'm up.
