:27:05
We don't have to pay anything, though.
:27:09
We live a couple blocks from here,
me and my mom.
:27:12
Well, my brother was there
a couple of years ago...
:27:16
...but he left after my dad left.
:27:34
My mom got tired of waiting
for my dad to get himself clean.
:27:38
And my dad got tired of trying.
:27:42
But that's when l started writing.
:27:44
What's your name?
:27:46
Jamal Wallace.
:27:48
Sounds like some kind of marmalade.
:27:51
How old are you?
:27:53
l'm 1 6.
:27:55
Sixteen!
:27:57
And you're black!
:28:02
-lt's remarkable.
-Remarkable? What?
:28:05
lt's remarkable that l'm black?
:28:08
What does me being black
got to do with anything, man?
:28:15
You don't know what to do
right now, do you?
:28:18
lf you say what you
really want to say...
:28:20
...l might not read any more of this.
:28:23
But if you let me run you down
with this racist bullshit...
:28:28
...what does that make you?
:28:34
l'm not playing this game, man.
:28:36
Oh, l say you are playing it.
:28:40
An expression is worth
a thousand words.
:28:44
But perhaps in your case just two.
:28:53
Here.
