:21:01
We ain't gonna just
act like shit is all right...

:21:03
but we gonna work towards change.
to make it better.

:21:06
That's what people... in this
Eye on the Prize... have done for us.

:21:10
They put their lives out there
so that we can be in the forefront...

:21:15
so that we can better ourselves.
:21:17
Isn't that beautiful. When you
look at Eye on the Prize...

:21:19
when you think of segregation
and civil rights and all those things?

:21:24
When I was watching Eye on the Prize,
you had Martin Luther King...

:21:28
you know.
great man in history...

:21:30
Malcolm X... great man in history...
standing up for us...

:21:34
so that we could sit together.
blacks and whites.

:21:36
Work together. Freedom!
Grow together. That's beautiful.

:21:41
Martin said...
:21:43
"Nonviolent. Nonviolent.
:21:45
We shall overcome.
I've been to the mountaintop.

:21:48
Nonviolent. Nonviolent."
:21:50
Malcolm said. "Yeah.
but by any means necessary."

:21:56
Martin said.
"Nonviolent. Nonviolent."

:21:59
"By any means necessary."
:22:02
Martin and Malcolm
were saying the same thing.

:22:04
They just had different opinions
and different approaches to it.

:22:07
I thought that was beautiful.
I said. "That's all right."

:22:10
But then one day I was watchin'.
and Martin Luther King...

:22:14
And I'm named after Martin.
I was proud. Martin!

:22:19
I watched him
go through Birmingham. Alabama.

:22:22
And this racist white boy
picked up a rock...

:22:26
you know. Like a half a boulder
or some shit.

:22:30
He pitched that motherfucker like he
was pitchin' for the Orioles...

:22:34
and hit Martin in his head.
:22:37
And all Martin did was say.
"Nonviolent. Nonviolent.

:22:41
Don't nobody do nothin'.
Nonviolent. Nonviolent.

:22:43
My head's bleeding right now.
:22:45
Don't nobody do nothin'.
We shall overcome.

:22:48
I've been to the mountaintop. I'm
having a dream right now. Nonviolent.

:22:52
Nonviolent. Nonviolent."
:22:56
I was proud. I said. "Damn.
:22:58
That takes a strong man
to get hit in the head...
