Miss Johnson, I apologize
if any of this is over your head,

:12:05
but if you see me after class,
I'll give you some chapters.

:12:07
Anybody ?
Come on.

:12:10
It's a non-fiction novel.
Capote mixed true events...

:12:13
with things that he couldn't
know so he made them up.

:12:18
He created a new genre.
:12:22
White folks back then felt safe.
Capote scared them.

:12:26
He took hard-core crime
out of the ghetto...

:12:28
and placed it in America's backyard,
that's what makes the book special.

:12:31
- Yeah, that's part of it.
- That's all of it.

:12:36
- We got a debate going on now.
- Capote wasn't the first.

:12:40
Richard Wright,James Baldwin
did the same thing.

:12:42
Wasn 't nobody trying
to read them, though.

:12:45
A lot of people read them.
:12:49
A lot of people like who ?
:12:51
You ?
:12:53
- Didn't think so.
- Mr. C ? Mr. C ?

:12:58
- Yeah ?
- Your girl needs to bone up.

:13:01
I think you need to give her
a pass to the library.

:13:04
We need to get a parent-teacher's
conference, something going on.

:13:07
Why don't you lend heryours ?
:13:09
'Cause obviously,
you don't ever use it.

:13:14
Yo, Latrice, Mr.Jackson's
civics class ?

:13:17
You will have a pop quiz.
It's mad hard, alright ?

:13:22
Alright.
:13:41
That's how easy it is
to give to charity around here.

:13:45
Thanks.
:13:48
Don't put your shit
on the floor.
