There's this psychiatrist...
:00:48
...a lady named Dr. Frances Cress Welsing.
:00:51
She has a theory
about the black man in America.

:00:55
She says that because
of the system of racism...

:00:58
...the black man has been made
to think of himself as a baby...

:01:02
...a not yet fully formed being
who has not realised his full potential.

:01:08
To support her claim,
she offers the following:

:01:14
First...
:01:18
...what does a black man call his woman?
:01:23
Momma.
:01:25
Second, what does a black man
call his closest acquaintances?

:01:31
His boys.
:01:34
And finally, what does a black man call
his place of residence?

:01:40
The crib.
:01:59
No!
