:48:02
Why not let one of the great
comedians play here?

:48:04
Because I say so. You understand? It's policy.
:48:08
I understand but, frankly, to hell with policy.
:48:10
This is 1960, not 1860.
:48:13
I heard you had a mouth on you,
kid. Save it for singing.

:48:16
Listen, Mr Podell,
I respect that this is your club, I truly do.

:48:19
But if you don't let George Kirby open for me,
I can't be responsible for the consequences.

:48:24
You threatening me? Hm?
:48:27
I'm cautioning you, Mr Podell.
Have you never heard of a sit-in?

:48:31
A sit what?
:48:33
It's a very popular form of protest today.
:48:36
It's where members of the black
and the white community...

:48:38
actually, all communities,
come together to an establishment

:48:41
that they feel is being unfair
to their brothers and sisters.

:48:45
Then the media shows up,
they hold hands, and they... they sit.

:48:50
Sometimes for days.
:48:53
They sit?
:48:54
Yeah, they sit and erm...
:48:57
And they sing.
:48:59
You know, songs like, what's the...?
:49:01
Oh. We Shall Overcome.
:49:04
Overcome?
:49:05
Overcome what?
