1
00:00:03,837 --> 00:00:05,421
Previously on Genius.
2
00:00:05,422 --> 00:00:06,922
There's only two
kinds of people in this world,
3
00:00:06,923 --> 00:00:08,799
those who hustle and
those who get hustled.
4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:10,092
Moment you were born,
5
00:00:10,093 --> 00:00:11,844
I knew that God
had given me a son who
6
00:00:11,845 --> 00:00:13,887
was destined for great things.
7
00:00:13,888 --> 00:00:15,931
There's no basis
in the Constitution or
8
00:00:15,932 --> 00:00:19,226
in the Bible for
treating Negros less human.
9
00:00:19,227 --> 00:00:20,310
There's this messenger,
10
00:00:20,311 --> 00:00:22,104
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad
11
00:00:22,105 --> 00:00:23,439
who leads us.
12
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,941
You remember
the theology student?
13
00:00:25,942 --> 00:00:27,651
Yeah, you're
looking at a man on a mission,
14
00:00:27,652 --> 00:00:29,445
and it starts with
seeing you again.
15
00:00:29,446 --> 00:00:30,529
Dear Holy Apostle,
16
00:00:30,530 --> 00:00:32,948
I was in prison
long before the iron gates
17
00:00:32,949 --> 00:00:34,034
closed on my life.
18
00:00:42,751 --> 00:00:44,543
I'd like to make a toast.
19
00:00:44,544 --> 00:00:45,794
Woman, if you don't drink.
20
00:00:45,795 --> 00:00:47,130
Red, it'll be quick.
21
00:00:55,055 --> 00:00:59,893
I love you.
I really do, Red.
22
00:01:02,270 --> 00:01:03,396
Every part of you.
23
00:01:07,901 --> 00:01:09,741
And I wanna spend the
rest of my life with you.
24
00:01:10,111 --> 00:01:11,946
Baby, are you proposing to me?
25
00:01:18,286 --> 00:01:20,705
No. That's your job.
26
00:01:21,623 --> 00:01:26,127
But I am saying I
see a future with you.
27
00:01:26,836 --> 00:01:30,799
Really?
And what do you see?
28
00:01:34,135 --> 00:01:35,136
Our future.
29
00:01:38,973 --> 00:01:40,266
Things like a house.
30
00:01:44,145 --> 00:01:45,188
Babies.
31
00:01:48,983 --> 00:01:50,276
You see it, too?
32
00:01:51,611 --> 00:01:53,446
I see us finishing
these drinks here.
33
00:01:56,658 --> 00:01:58,378
And then moving over
to that bed over there.
34
00:01:59,786 --> 00:02:00,787
Then what?
35
00:02:04,332 --> 00:02:06,012
And then I'll show
you how much I love you.
36
00:02:43,580 --> 00:02:46,623
That iron put a
new crease in that suit.
37
00:02:46,624 --> 00:02:48,125
Yeah, I'm just
glad to have that prison
38
00:02:48,126 --> 00:02:49,209
steamed off of me.
39
00:02:49,210 --> 00:02:50,794
You do look lighter.
40
00:02:50,795 --> 00:02:51,880
I feel lighter.
41
00:02:52,505 --> 00:02:54,089
Wish I could say
the same for you.
42
00:02:54,090 --> 00:02:55,382
Go easy.
43
00:02:55,383 --> 00:02:57,467
Not all of us could eat
as much ice cream as you and
44
00:02:57,468 --> 00:02:58,927
still look like a teenager.
45
00:02:58,928 --> 00:03:01,638
Well, what can I say?
Allah truly is great.
46
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,892
Indeed, he is.
47
00:03:08,313 --> 00:03:11,815
Man, I remember you
chasin' chickens on the farm.
48
00:03:11,816 --> 00:03:14,194
And now you are minister
of the Harlem Temple.
49
00:03:15,486 --> 00:03:16,821
I'm proud of you, Reginald.
50
00:03:17,739 --> 00:03:20,699
Once you get settled,
you should come and visit.
51
00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:23,410
I've been talking to my
secretary for so long about you,
52
00:03:23,411 --> 00:03:25,663
it'd be nice to put
a face to the name.
53
00:03:26,748 --> 00:03:28,207
Ooh, we should get going.
54
00:03:28,208 --> 00:03:30,250
I told Wilfred we'll be
at his place by 6:00.
55
00:03:30,251 --> 00:03:31,877
Wilfred can wait.
56
00:03:31,878 --> 00:03:33,129
I wanna go to the Temple.
57
00:03:33,922 --> 00:03:35,380
Malcolm, we're going
to the Temple in the morning.
58
00:03:35,381 --> 00:03:37,467
I would like
to go to the Temple now.
59
00:03:38,468 --> 00:03:39,828
I don't wanna wait
for the morning.
60
00:03:41,596 --> 00:03:42,597
What is it?
61
00:03:43,389 --> 00:03:45,224
I'm not supposed
to say anything,
62
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:48,143
but Wilfred, Hilda,
and Ella Mae,
63
00:03:48,144 --> 00:03:49,979
they planned a
welcome home party for you.
64
00:03:50,647 --> 00:03:53,398
I told them you wouldn't
want one, but Wilfred insisted,
65
00:03:53,399 --> 00:03:54,609
and you know how he gets.
66
00:03:55,610 --> 00:03:58,905
Plus, Ella Mae drove
all the way from Boston.
67
00:04:02,408 --> 00:04:04,701
Man, you know the
one thing that kept me going
68
00:04:04,702 --> 00:04:06,287
my last few years in prison?
69
00:04:06,913 --> 00:04:08,831
It was knowing that one day,
70
00:04:09,415 --> 00:04:12,627
I would actually walk
into a Temple as a free man.
71
00:04:15,546 --> 00:04:17,715
A free Muslim man.
72
00:04:19,926 --> 00:04:21,427
I'm not waiting another day.
73
00:04:25,807 --> 00:04:26,975
We're going to the temple.
74
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:31,687
My beloved Brothers and Sisters,
75
00:04:31,688 --> 00:04:35,941
there can be no greater leader
in America that can do more for
76
00:04:35,942 --> 00:04:40,362
the so-called Negro as
much as what Islam has done
77
00:04:40,363 --> 00:04:41,656
for you and I.
78
00:04:42,490 --> 00:04:46,201
I see the beautiful faces of
men and women who have
79
00:04:46,202 --> 00:04:47,537
traveled a similar journey.
80
00:04:48,246 --> 00:04:50,456
A journey made
far too difficult,
81
00:04:51,457 --> 00:04:53,709
but one that is
filled with promise.
82
00:04:53,710 --> 00:04:57,880
In fact, I see Brother
Malcolm sitting among us.
83
00:04:59,173 --> 00:05:00,293
Brother, if you would stand.
84
00:05:02,135 --> 00:05:03,219
It's all right.
85
00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:11,476
Brother Malcolm stands before
us tall, proud, and strong.
86
00:05:11,477 --> 00:05:14,813
But, like many of us,
it didn't start that way.
87
00:05:14,814 --> 00:05:18,900
Like myself, it took years in
the shackles of the "master"
88
00:05:18,901 --> 00:05:22,113
for him to find his true
calling through Islam.
89
00:05:22,989 --> 00:05:27,951
My point is that we,
as men and women,
90
00:05:27,952 --> 00:05:30,746
do not have to go through
torment and imprisonment to
91
00:05:30,747 --> 00:05:34,208
find our light,
because it is here.
92
00:05:35,043 --> 00:05:38,838
So thank you, Brother Malcolm,
for being that light,
93
00:05:40,673 --> 00:05:45,135
for your letters, for your
discipline while in bondage.
94
00:05:45,136 --> 00:05:48,555
And thank you for your
commitment to Allah.
95
00:05:48,556 --> 00:05:53,185
As much as the nation
can offer us inspiration,
96
00:05:53,186 --> 00:05:56,022
so too can we be to each other.
97
00:05:58,983 --> 00:06:00,151
And you are to be.
98
00:06:01,277 --> 00:06:02,986
All praise is due to Allah for
99
00:06:02,987 --> 00:06:04,780
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad
100
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:08,576
All praise is due to Allah for
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad!
101
00:06:12,372 --> 00:06:13,373
Pleasure to meet you.
102
00:06:14,332 --> 00:06:16,166
We could always use
another good brother.
103
00:06:16,167 --> 00:06:18,418
I'm humbled to
be a willing servant of Allah
104
00:06:18,419 --> 00:06:19,879
in any way I can.
105
00:06:29,514 --> 00:06:31,391
I hope I didn't embarrass you.
106
00:06:32,350 --> 00:06:34,893
Any recognition
from you is an honor, sir.
107
00:06:34,894 --> 00:06:36,436
An honor earned,
Brother Malcolm.
108
00:06:36,437 --> 00:06:37,688
I meant every word.
109
00:06:39,482 --> 00:06:41,525
I look forward to your future,
110
00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:43,736
and the great things
you will do growing the Nation.
111
00:06:44,570 --> 00:06:46,406
Your Honorable One, if I may.
112
00:06:46,989 --> 00:06:48,032
How can I do it?
113
00:06:48,866 --> 00:06:51,576
You've been a
criminal and a prisoner.
114
00:06:51,577 --> 00:06:55,164
You've come to the other side
and learned to embrace Allah.
115
00:06:57,208 --> 00:07:00,461
Let your light shine on our
people and bring them to us.
116
00:07:01,254 --> 00:07:02,754
Go after the young people.
117
00:07:02,755 --> 00:07:04,340
Once you get them, well,
118
00:07:05,508 --> 00:07:07,552
the older ones will
follow through shame.
119
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,238
I'm here
from the Nation of Islam and
120
00:07:28,239 --> 00:07:30,073
I'm here to tell
you that the Nation of Islam
121
00:07:30,074 --> 00:07:32,033
doesn't just see your dignity,
122
00:07:32,034 --> 00:07:35,078
it asks you to embrace
it with both of your hands and
123
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:36,163
with all of your being.
124
00:07:36,164 --> 00:07:38,540
That you have been bitten
by the snake, so the snake is,
125
00:07:38,541 --> 00:07:40,625
of course, gonna run back
and tell the other snakes
126
00:07:40,626 --> 00:07:42,085
that he's preaching
the gospel of hate.
127
00:07:42,086 --> 00:07:45,130
But it is not a gospel of hate,
it is a gospel of hell.
128
00:07:45,131 --> 00:07:48,925
Now, if there is a snake in
the field that has been biting
129
00:07:48,926 --> 00:07:51,553
your brothers and sisters,
is that a gospel of hate,
130
00:07:51,554 --> 00:07:52,721
or is that a gospel of hell?
131
00:07:52,722 --> 00:07:54,890
I would say it is
a gospel of hell.
132
00:07:54,891 --> 00:07:57,434
It's just that my love for
my people is so intense,
133
00:07:57,435 --> 00:07:58,518
it's so great,
134
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:01,855
it is so overwhelming
that I must inform you,
135
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:04,316
and it would be remiss
of me not to inform you,
136
00:08:04,317 --> 00:08:07,152
and it would be remiss of you
not to notify your brothers and
137
00:08:07,153 --> 00:08:08,737
sisters now that you
have stood here and graced me
138
00:08:08,738 --> 00:08:09,822
with your time.
139
00:08:11,115 --> 00:08:13,074
I am not who you think I am,
140
00:08:13,075 --> 00:08:15,536
but what I do have,
141
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:18,164
what I have come
here today with,
142
00:08:19,123 --> 00:08:22,292
is a feeling deep in my
marrow that my calling,
143
00:08:22,293 --> 00:08:25,754
to preach and lead
God's people, our people,
144
00:08:25,755 --> 00:08:29,007
past the high walls of
despair and depravity,
145
00:08:29,008 --> 00:08:32,094
and into the lush garden
of hope and humanity.
146
00:08:33,846 --> 00:08:36,640
And I believe I can do that
here at Twelfth Baptist,
147
00:08:36,641 --> 00:08:40,352
at Second Baptist,
at Concord Baptist.
148
00:08:40,353 --> 00:08:43,522
Dr. King, it's
clear that you recognize that
149
00:08:43,523 --> 00:08:45,732
the call to pastorate is
a calling and not a job.
150
00:08:45,733 --> 00:08:49,861
Our only concern is
your unique pedigree.
151
00:08:49,862 --> 00:08:52,906
Your father,
Reverend King Sr. in Atlanta,
152
00:08:52,907 --> 00:08:56,159
is somewhat of a race man
with the reputation for.
153
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,036
Stirring the pot.
154
00:08:58,037 --> 00:08:59,329
Pissing off the White folk.
155
00:08:59,330 --> 00:09:02,123
We understand that
certain tactics are needed in
156
00:09:02,124 --> 00:09:05,168
the South to combat
the evils of Jim Crow,
157
00:09:05,169 --> 00:09:07,671
but you need to know that
well-established churches in
158
00:09:07,672 --> 00:09:11,132
Boston are looking for a pastor,
but not a prophet.
159
00:09:11,133 --> 00:09:14,720
The question for you is, is
this something that you want?
160
00:09:16,556 --> 00:09:18,306
But everyone
is just so proud of you.
161
00:09:18,307 --> 00:09:20,600
We're looking forward to
you visiting over Christmas.
162
00:09:20,601 --> 00:09:22,895
I'm looking
forward to it as well.
163
00:09:24,689 --> 00:09:25,689
We both are.
164
00:09:25,690 --> 00:09:27,065
Both?
165
00:09:27,066 --> 00:09:29,527
Yeah, me and Coretta.
166
00:09:31,654 --> 00:09:34,614
I, I
didn't know it was so serious
167
00:09:34,615 --> 00:09:36,325
you'd invite her
home for Christmas.
168
00:09:36,951 --> 00:09:38,827
You know
your father's got plans for you
169
00:09:38,828 --> 00:09:39,995
of coming back to...
170
00:09:39,996 --> 00:09:41,831
Co-pastor with him at Ebenezer
171
00:09:42,623 --> 00:09:44,165
and marrying a nice girl
from one of those
172
00:09:44,166 --> 00:09:45,500
Socially prominent families
173
00:09:45,501 --> 00:09:46,627
from the West Side.
174
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:50,005
Well, I've dated
everyone in Atlanta and no one
175
00:09:50,006 --> 00:09:51,381
was the right match.
176
00:09:51,382 --> 00:09:54,384
Yes, I am aware
of your extensive history.
177
00:09:54,385 --> 00:09:55,844
What can I say, Momma,
178
00:09:55,845 --> 00:09:58,306
the girls have sometimes
gone wild over the old boy.
179
00:10:02,101 --> 00:10:05,938
But I, I care for Coretta.
180
00:10:08,107 --> 00:10:09,983
Deeper than I have
for anyone else.
181
00:10:09,984 --> 00:10:13,320
Baby, I will always
support you, you know that.
182
00:10:13,321 --> 00:10:14,821
Unfortunately, I'm not the one
183
00:10:14,822 --> 00:10:16,032
who needs to be won over.
184
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:06,957
They'd be fools not to cast you.
185
00:11:07,917 --> 00:11:09,834
Says the man who
a few months ago had never
186
00:11:09,835 --> 00:11:11,253
even heard an opera.
187
00:11:11,962 --> 00:11:13,756
But I know talent when I see it.
188
00:11:14,382 --> 00:11:15,966
Eyes on the food, Casanova.
189
00:11:18,260 --> 00:11:21,012
We both know you
aren't here to do your laundry.
190
00:11:21,013 --> 00:11:23,182
You're here for my cooking.
191
00:11:23,933 --> 00:11:25,975
I'm a starving student.
192
00:11:25,976 --> 00:11:27,812
Free trumps good.
193
00:11:28,688 --> 00:11:30,397
Hey, you think
Billy Eckstine is gonna
194
00:11:30,398 --> 00:11:33,024
move into Carolle Drake's
home or is she going to
195
00:11:33,025 --> 00:11:34,275
move into his?
196
00:11:34,276 --> 00:11:36,779
Bet he's buying them
a brand new place somewhere.
197
00:11:37,655 --> 00:11:39,407
Something fancy by
the beach, maybe?
198
00:11:40,116 --> 00:11:41,492
Or she's buying it.
199
00:11:42,284 --> 00:11:43,410
Yeah, right.
200
00:11:43,411 --> 00:11:46,413
Why not?
She's as famous as he is.
201
00:11:46,414 --> 00:11:49,124
Yeah, but I don't
know many men who allow their
202
00:11:49,125 --> 00:11:51,918
wives to buy a house for them.
203
00:11:51,919 --> 00:11:53,003
I know I wouldn't.
204
00:12:02,096 --> 00:12:03,097
Needs salt.
205
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:04,764
Needs salt?
206
00:12:04,765 --> 00:12:06,850
Woman, please, I've been
making this recipe for years.
207
00:12:06,851 --> 00:12:08,352
I ain't never had
any complaints.
208
00:12:22,825 --> 00:12:26,370
You know,
after I get my pastor job,
209
00:12:27,538 --> 00:12:30,373
we should move into one of
those big fancy penthouses in
210
00:12:30,374 --> 00:12:34,252
Roxbury Park somewhere
with a view of the river.
211
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:35,712
So that's your plan?
212
00:12:35,713 --> 00:12:36,838
Yeah, why not?
213
00:12:36,839 --> 00:12:39,759
But if you don't like that,
we could always do New York.
214
00:12:41,552 --> 00:12:43,262
Detroit.
Hell, maybe even Paris.
215
00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:48,141
Me and you walking the
Seine every morning,
216
00:12:48,142 --> 00:12:51,186
eatin' baguettes or
getting fancied up and
217
00:12:51,187 --> 00:12:54,606
taking in the show at the
Palais Garnier every night.
218
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:57,901
It's pronounced Palais Garnier.
219
00:12:57,902 --> 00:12:59,278
Yeah, I don't
hear the difference.
220
00:13:00,029 --> 00:13:01,821
Boy, it's a
good thing you're funny.
221
00:13:01,822 --> 00:13:04,491
I'll take
funny and sexy any day.
222
00:13:04,492 --> 00:13:06,201
I never said you were sexy.
223
00:13:06,202 --> 00:13:07,703
No, but you was thinking it.
224
00:13:24,637 --> 00:13:25,721
What are you doing?
225
00:13:26,388 --> 00:13:29,266
I think I'm ready
to do my laundry now.
226
00:13:56,418 --> 00:13:58,462
Um, I'll just
have a coffee, please.
227
00:14:15,104 --> 00:14:16,397
Is it as good as Ruby's?
228
00:14:23,153 --> 00:14:24,613
Well, this is a surprise.
229
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:28,658
- Hey.
- Hey.
230
00:14:28,659 --> 00:14:30,410
It's good to see you, Evelyn.
231
00:14:30,411 --> 00:14:31,620
It's been a long time.
232
00:14:39,587 --> 00:14:40,796
I don't know.
233
00:14:42,006 --> 00:14:44,674
Ruby's is kind of
close to my heart.
234
00:14:44,675 --> 00:14:46,135
- So...
- You sure?
235
00:14:47,511 --> 00:14:48,970
You know I could always
tell when you were lying.
236
00:14:48,971 --> 00:14:50,138
Yeah.
237
00:14:50,139 --> 00:14:52,379
I remember you saying it was
anytime my lips were moving.
238
00:14:54,852 --> 00:14:55,977
I don't do that anymore.
239
00:14:55,978 --> 00:14:57,146
Move your lips?
240
00:14:58,272 --> 00:14:59,523
That's a shame.
241
00:15:00,608 --> 00:15:03,276
So you found your way
back to Boston and you ain't
242
00:15:03,277 --> 00:15:04,694
wanna look me up?
243
00:15:04,695 --> 00:15:06,447
Want is a relative word.
244
00:15:07,197 --> 00:15:08,365
You do look good.
245
00:15:10,034 --> 00:15:11,868
I could say the same about you.
246
00:15:11,869 --> 00:15:13,369
Well, don't let me stop you.
247
00:15:13,370 --> 00:15:14,580
Shoot.
248
00:15:18,667 --> 00:15:19,667
You look good.
249
00:15:19,668 --> 00:15:21,211
Thank you.
250
00:15:24,673 --> 00:15:28,051
Hey, you, ever
get that teaching job you
251
00:15:28,052 --> 00:15:29,385
were looking for?
252
00:15:29,386 --> 00:15:31,471
- You remember that?
- Of course I do.
253
00:15:31,472 --> 00:15:34,223
You used to talk my ear
off about it all the time.
254
00:15:34,224 --> 00:15:35,725
Well, what
19-year-old knows what she
255
00:15:35,726 --> 00:15:37,686
wanna do with the
rest of her life, right?
256
00:15:41,273 --> 00:15:43,149
'Sides, what I remember
was your preference for a
257
00:15:43,150 --> 00:15:44,901
different flavor back then.
258
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:46,569
Well, I'm no
longer about that life.
259
00:15:46,570 --> 00:15:47,946
The hustling or the White girls?
260
00:15:47,947 --> 00:15:49,030
Any of it.
261
00:15:49,031 --> 00:15:51,407
I've dedicated my life to Allah,
262
00:15:51,408 --> 00:15:52,951
thanks to the teachings of the
263
00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:54,744
Honorable Elijah Muhammad,
264
00:15:54,745 --> 00:15:56,330
the leader of
the Nation of Islam.
265
00:15:57,665 --> 00:15:59,124
You really into this, ain't you?
266
00:16:01,043 --> 00:16:02,169
It saved my life.
267
00:16:05,714 --> 00:16:07,633
You know, if you'd be willing,
268
00:16:09,259 --> 00:16:10,593
I'm happy to talk more about it.
269
00:16:10,594 --> 00:16:11,679
Yeah.
270
00:16:12,638 --> 00:16:15,015
I work over at Clementine's,
get off at midnight.
271
00:16:18,102 --> 00:16:21,772
Why don't you, um, come
on down to the club then?
272
00:16:58,475 --> 00:16:59,851
I thought you worked here?
273
00:16:59,852 --> 00:17:02,104
I do, most nights.
274
00:17:04,273 --> 00:17:05,523
What are
you trying to do, Evelyn?
275
00:17:05,524 --> 00:17:07,818
Dancing.
You should be, too.
276
00:17:11,864 --> 00:17:12,984
Well, this is not my groove.
277
00:17:13,532 --> 00:17:14,575
But it used to be.
278
00:17:15,826 --> 00:17:17,452
I'd imagine it still is.
279
00:17:17,453 --> 00:17:19,038
Yeah?
Well, I didn't come to dance.
280
00:17:19,705 --> 00:17:21,539
I came to see you
and talk about Islam.
281
00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:22,623
- I know.
- The Nation.
282
00:17:22,624 --> 00:17:24,083
We have plenty of time for that.
283
00:17:24,084 --> 00:17:26,462
Just relax.
284
00:17:27,546 --> 00:17:29,131
Yeah? It's about me and you.
285
00:17:30,632 --> 00:17:31,674
Now move.
286
00:17:31,675 --> 00:17:32,759
Ev.
287
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,885
Stop now. That's enough.
288
00:17:33,886 --> 00:17:35,595
Red, stop talking.
289
00:17:35,596 --> 00:17:36,679
That's enough.
290
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,142
Stop talking and just feel.
291
00:17:42,436 --> 00:17:44,063
Come on.
This is the best part.
292
00:17:51,111 --> 00:17:52,237
Go ahead, girl.
293
00:19:06,145 --> 00:19:07,646
I never
imagined I'd see you again.
294
00:19:08,772 --> 00:19:10,857
Well, you never were
good at seeing around corners.
295
00:19:10,858 --> 00:19:13,902
Well, who is?
You are not no better.
296
00:19:14,778 --> 00:19:17,948
Please.
You could never surprise me.
297
00:19:43,599 --> 00:19:46,018
Martin tells us
you're studying to be a singer.
298
00:19:46,852 --> 00:19:47,852
An opera singer.
299
00:19:47,853 --> 00:19:49,771
She's up for the
lead in La bomème.
300
00:19:50,689 --> 00:19:52,274
That's a very famous
Italian opera.
301
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:55,359
How'd you come to that?
302
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:56,485
My mother.
303
00:19:56,486 --> 00:19:59,405
She was determined my sister
and I get an education and
304
00:19:59,406 --> 00:20:01,699
put as much distance
between ourselves and Alabama
305
00:20:01,700 --> 00:20:03,284
as we could.
306
00:20:03,285 --> 00:20:05,621
And music provided
that escape route,
307
00:20:06,622 --> 00:20:07,873
so I'd never have to go back.
308
00:20:15,547 --> 00:20:18,550
So underneath
all this opera singin',
309
00:20:20,344 --> 00:20:21,970
you just a country girl?
310
00:20:23,472 --> 00:20:24,681
Yes, sir.
311
00:20:25,349 --> 00:20:27,517
From a small town
outside Montgomery.
312
00:20:28,644 --> 00:20:32,064
Martin, go ahead and open it.
313
00:20:34,900 --> 00:20:37,401
Mrs. Chamberlain wanted
to have me pay twice the
314
00:20:37,402 --> 00:20:39,780
usual amount
because it's a custom fit,
315
00:20:40,822 --> 00:20:42,449
but when I told
her it was for you,
316
00:20:43,325 --> 00:20:44,326
she did it on the house.
317
00:20:47,871 --> 00:20:49,664
Now, you're gonna be
working with me as my
318
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:51,249
co-pastor at Ebenezer,
319
00:20:51,250 --> 00:20:53,126
I figured you should
have one of your own.
320
00:20:58,465 --> 00:20:59,549
Well, Daddy, I'm,
321
00:21:00,384 --> 00:21:04,596
I appreciate the offer but I,
322
00:21:06,014 --> 00:21:09,518
I'm still considering my
other options in Boston.
323
00:21:13,855 --> 00:21:15,482
So you haven't found a job yet.
324
00:21:18,860 --> 00:21:20,112
No, not yet.
325
00:21:22,239 --> 00:21:26,450
But, um, when Coretta
and I get back to Boston,
326
00:21:26,451 --> 00:21:29,162
I have an interview set up
at Tremont Temple Baptist.
327
00:21:29,997 --> 00:21:31,580
You know, the
congregation has close
328
00:21:31,581 --> 00:21:33,667
to 250 parishioners.
329
00:21:33,792 --> 00:21:35,961
One of the biggest
in all of Roxbury.
330
00:21:36,962 --> 00:21:38,629
By the way,
you know who I ran into just
331
00:21:38,630 --> 00:21:41,758
the other day, Martin?
332
00:21:44,094 --> 00:21:45,095
Mabel Wilson.
333
00:21:45,554 --> 00:21:46,555
You remember her, right?
334
00:21:47,681 --> 00:21:49,765
It's a shame you
two called it quits.
335
00:21:49,766 --> 00:21:51,434
That girl was a catch.
336
00:21:51,435 --> 00:21:54,603
I'm talking about
someone with much to share
337
00:21:54,604 --> 00:21:56,690
and much to offer.
338
00:22:15,876 --> 00:22:17,627
I have
something to offer as well.
339
00:22:22,007 --> 00:22:23,507
I think I'm going to
turn in for the night.
340
00:22:23,508 --> 00:22:25,761
This was lovely, Mrs. King.
341
00:22:52,913 --> 00:22:53,914
Where is he going?
342
00:22:55,082 --> 00:22:56,083
Fix it.
343
00:23:21,691 --> 00:23:23,692
I didn't
appreciate the way that you
344
00:23:23,693 --> 00:23:24,778
talked to Coretta.
345
00:23:30,033 --> 00:23:31,785
She is a wonderful young lady.
346
00:23:32,786 --> 00:23:33,870
Girl's got a fire.
347
00:23:35,455 --> 00:23:37,707
"I have something
to offer as well."
348
00:23:42,587 --> 00:23:45,882
I know my approach can
sometimes be a bit sharp.
349
00:23:48,969 --> 00:23:50,679
But I only
want what's best for you.
350
00:23:53,515 --> 00:23:55,100
How do you
know that Coretta isn't?
351
00:23:55,809 --> 00:23:58,310
Maybe because
you haven't bothered to
352
00:23:58,311 --> 00:23:59,688
tell me why she is.
353
00:24:00,772 --> 00:24:02,566
Your future is ahead of you.
354
00:24:04,609 --> 00:24:06,820
It's why it's great for
you to come join me here.
355
00:24:07,737 --> 00:24:09,489
Give you time to figure
these things out.
356
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:12,283
I don't wanna
join you at Ebenezer.
357
00:24:12,284 --> 00:24:13,451
Of course you do.
358
00:24:13,452 --> 00:24:14,785
It's what we've
always talked about.
359
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:16,386
No. It's what
you've always talked about.
360
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:19,708
You never asked me, you told me.
361
00:24:21,501 --> 00:24:22,669
You're always telling.
362
00:24:28,717 --> 00:24:30,510
You like being Daddy King.
363
00:24:33,346 --> 00:24:34,639
You're good at it.
364
00:24:35,932 --> 00:24:37,332
And there's nothing
wrong with that.
365
00:24:39,352 --> 00:24:42,981
But if I were to come
and join you at Ebenezer,
366
00:24:44,858 --> 00:24:47,319
all I'll ever be is
Daddy King's son.
367
00:24:49,446 --> 00:24:53,825
I wanna be more than that.
I need to be.
368
00:24:55,911 --> 00:24:57,162
But I need you to let me.
369
00:25:04,711 --> 00:25:06,962
Hey, listen, I have a
friend at Dexter Avenue Baptist
370
00:25:06,963 --> 00:25:08,465
down in Montgomery,
371
00:25:10,467 --> 00:25:12,343
and he's been asking me
for a while to come and
372
00:25:12,344 --> 00:25:14,638
give a guest sermon,
but I've not been able to do it.
373
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:18,390
It's only a three-hour
drive and you can have Coretta
374
00:25:18,391 --> 00:25:19,601
stay with us.
375
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,353
I know your mother
would love to spend some
376
00:25:22,354 --> 00:25:23,522
more time with her.
377
00:25:26,816 --> 00:25:27,984
As would I.
378
00:25:36,034 --> 00:25:37,244
I suppose I can do that.
379
00:25:50,715 --> 00:25:51,883
You're going somewhere?
380
00:25:52,425 --> 00:25:54,594
I'm going back to Boston.
381
00:26:00,392 --> 00:26:02,560
Look, I just
wanted come in and apologize
382
00:26:02,561 --> 00:26:03,853
for earlier tonight.
383
00:26:08,525 --> 00:26:09,858
Corrie, will you stop
and listen for a second?
384
00:26:09,859 --> 00:26:11,027
Why?
385
00:26:11,736 --> 00:26:13,029
'Cause I wanna talk to you.
386
00:26:13,697 --> 00:26:15,240
So now you want to talk?
387
00:26:17,492 --> 00:26:21,787
Why don't you go talk to
Delinda or Savannah or whoever
388
00:26:21,788 --> 00:26:24,039
else your father has
lined up for you?
389
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,165
Because I
don't want any of them.
390
00:26:25,166 --> 00:26:26,292
And, you know,
391
00:26:26,293 --> 00:26:28,419
I don't care what
your daddy has to say about me
392
00:26:28,420 --> 00:26:29,796
because I know who I am.
393
00:26:30,755 --> 00:26:34,467
What I found out
tonight is who you are.
394
00:26:36,845 --> 00:26:38,679
What's that
supposed to mean, Corrie?
395
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,224
You know, this
is probably for the best,
396
00:26:42,183 --> 00:26:44,560
'cause I don't need to be
with a man who isn't
397
00:26:44,561 --> 00:26:46,186
strong enough to
stand up for me.
398
00:26:46,187 --> 00:26:48,690
I didn't come here to
this dinner for that.
399
00:26:49,774 --> 00:26:51,901
Corrie, wait, wait, wait, wait.
400
00:27:04,831 --> 00:27:06,708
Why didn't you stand up for me?
401
00:27:09,502 --> 00:27:11,046
Am I not worth fighting for?
402
00:27:23,683 --> 00:27:26,436
You wanna know what
I told him you have to offer?
403
00:27:30,523 --> 00:27:35,487
Your heart, which
is warm and full,
404
00:27:37,238 --> 00:27:39,324
and you share it
with me every day.
405
00:27:42,118 --> 00:27:47,206
Your mind, which constantly
challenges me to be the best
406
00:27:47,207 --> 00:27:50,085
version of myself I can be.
407
00:27:53,797 --> 00:27:58,550
And your soul, which
you pledged to God like a
408
00:27:58,551 --> 00:28:00,261
good Christian should.
409
00:28:04,391 --> 00:28:05,809
And if I'm lucky...
410
00:28:11,481 --> 00:28:12,691
Your hand.
411
00:28:21,991 --> 00:28:23,451
Will you marry me?
412
00:28:29,582 --> 00:28:31,751
Yes. Yes.
413
00:29:05,452 --> 00:29:09,748
The White man,
with his shackles and bondage,
414
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,295
has convinced us that even
the simplest of rights,
415
00:29:16,296 --> 00:29:20,424
like freedom of education,
are up for negotiation.
416
00:29:20,425 --> 00:29:22,009
And we fell for it.
417
00:29:22,010 --> 00:29:24,679
Hook, line, and sinker.
418
00:29:28,433 --> 00:29:32,479
Now, I've been to Detroit,
Philadelphia, Chicago,
419
00:29:33,521 --> 00:29:36,231
and even for our Southern
folks here, Edgewood.
420
00:29:36,232 --> 00:29:41,153
The same truth exists
up and down this so-called
421
00:29:41,154 --> 00:29:42,613
"land of the free."
422
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:47,285
We're all still negotiating
something that should be ours.
423
00:29:49,496 --> 00:29:50,497
So what's the solution?
424
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:55,043
Pride and dignity within self.
425
00:29:55,710 --> 00:29:58,046
Yes, yes!
426
00:29:58,838 --> 00:30:01,423
Caring about who we are,
427
00:30:01,424 --> 00:30:05,886
and when we understand our
worth and have pride within it,
428
00:30:05,887 --> 00:30:08,305
so too will everyone else.
429
00:30:08,306 --> 00:30:11,517
And through Islam
and the leadership of
430
00:30:11,518 --> 00:30:13,644
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad,
431
00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:16,939
this will be our foundation
as we move forward.
432
00:30:16,940 --> 00:30:18,107
But we need your commitment.
433
00:30:19,025 --> 00:30:22,402
And so I ask each
and everyone here today,
434
00:30:22,403 --> 00:30:23,738
do we have it?
435
00:30:26,366 --> 00:30:27,908
I see our youth in the back.
436
00:30:27,909 --> 00:30:28,993
Do we have it?
437
00:30:29,661 --> 00:30:31,453
Yes, yes!
438
00:30:31,454 --> 00:30:35,250
And, again,
through Allah, let's work.
439
00:30:39,045 --> 00:30:40,255
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
440
00:30:42,882 --> 00:30:45,050
I weighed whether
or not I wanted to view
441
00:30:45,051 --> 00:30:46,469
your words in person.
442
00:30:47,262 --> 00:30:49,805
I feared my presence
might alter your message.
443
00:30:49,806 --> 00:30:55,061
But to hear and feel the
people's response up close
444
00:30:55,728 --> 00:30:57,229
was truly inspiring.
445
00:30:57,230 --> 00:31:00,023
I've been hearing about
your recruiting for some time.
446
00:31:00,024 --> 00:31:02,484
Your exploits are
reverberating throughout the
447
00:31:02,485 --> 00:31:05,988
Nation of Islam
with great pride.
448
00:31:05,989 --> 00:31:07,823
Thank you, your Honorable One.
449
00:31:07,824 --> 00:31:08,950
Praise to Allah.
450
00:31:09,659 --> 00:31:10,909
And please know, had I
known you would be here.
451
00:31:10,910 --> 00:31:12,703
No need for explanation.
452
00:31:12,704 --> 00:31:15,373
Like I said, I was inspired.
453
00:31:16,833 --> 00:31:20,460
Now, my time is brief, and I
wanted to discuss an important
454
00:31:20,461 --> 00:31:23,755
matter with you that has
come to my attention,
455
00:31:23,756 --> 00:31:25,549
one that I need your help with.
456
00:31:25,550 --> 00:31:26,633
Of course.
457
00:31:26,634 --> 00:31:27,926
Anything the Nation needs,
458
00:31:27,927 --> 00:31:29,636
I am fully committed and,
of course,
459
00:31:29,637 --> 00:31:30,804
to you personally.
460
00:31:30,805 --> 00:31:32,473
As I anticipated.
461
00:31:33,224 --> 00:31:35,809
The matter though involves
someone close to you.
462
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:37,020
Your brother, Reginald.
463
00:31:40,565 --> 00:31:42,149
Reginald?
What's going on?
464
00:31:42,150 --> 00:31:44,903
He will be relieved
of his duties in the Nation.
465
00:31:45,945 --> 00:31:49,282
We cannot turn a blind eye to
inappropriate relationships.
466
00:31:51,034 --> 00:31:53,118
I'm, I'm sorry.
You must be mistaken.
467
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:55,203
Reginald wouldn't do
something like that.
468
00:31:55,204 --> 00:31:57,414
I would not
make a move if I didn't know.
469
00:31:57,415 --> 00:32:00,251
He went against the
foundation of who we are.
470
00:32:02,253 --> 00:32:04,797
You don't doubt me
do you, Malcolm?
471
00:32:06,841 --> 00:32:08,759
In your final
letter from prison,
472
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,304
you said there is no
sacrifice too great for me
473
00:32:12,305 --> 00:32:13,931
to make in your service.
474
00:32:13,932 --> 00:32:15,807
Is this no longer true?
475
00:32:15,808 --> 00:32:18,310
Of course not.
I am at your service always.
476
00:32:18,311 --> 00:32:19,395
I'm glad to hear it.
477
00:32:20,229 --> 00:32:23,065
Now, with Reginald gone,
we need to replace him.
478
00:32:23,066 --> 00:32:26,277
Is this, is this
something you can do?
479
00:32:43,544 --> 00:32:46,088
Edythe said
you wanted to see me?
480
00:32:46,089 --> 00:32:47,631
Corrie, you know it's
bad luck to see the bride
481
00:32:47,632 --> 00:32:49,092
before the wedding.
482
00:32:55,139 --> 00:33:00,019
You look, you look dazzling.
483
00:33:04,649 --> 00:33:06,483
Corrie, what's wrong?
484
00:33:06,484 --> 00:33:07,901
I can't do this.
485
00:33:07,902 --> 00:33:11,698
I won't say the
vows about "obeying" and
486
00:33:12,657 --> 00:33:13,817
"submitting to your husband."
487
00:33:15,952 --> 00:33:17,661
I'm not gonna do this
with you if I'm going to be
488
00:33:17,662 --> 00:33:20,956
your servant or your
concubine or some sort of
489
00:33:20,957 --> 00:33:22,208
glorified housekeeper.
490
00:33:25,086 --> 00:33:28,588
This needs to be an equal
partnership if it's gonna work.
491
00:33:28,589 --> 00:33:29,882
I agree with you.
492
00:33:33,761 --> 00:33:35,303
What about Daddy King?
493
00:33:35,304 --> 00:33:37,015
Well, it's not his wedding day.
494
00:33:39,100 --> 00:33:40,392
It's ours.
495
00:33:40,393 --> 00:33:42,269
And no one's gonna tell
us how it should go except
496
00:33:42,270 --> 00:33:43,688
you and me,
497
00:33:44,522 --> 00:33:47,942
if that's all right
with you, Mrs. King.
498
00:33:52,488 --> 00:33:53,614
It's all right with me.
499
00:33:54,866 --> 00:33:56,242
Dr. King.
500
00:34:00,038 --> 00:34:01,456
I ain't see nothing.
501
00:34:03,958 --> 00:34:06,127
God as my witness,
I did not see nothing.
502
00:34:44,916 --> 00:34:46,250
May I have this dance?
503
00:34:49,587 --> 00:34:50,713
Hi, Daddy.
504
00:35:13,903 --> 00:35:16,114
No vacancies
anywhere else in town?
505
00:35:18,449 --> 00:35:19,659
Not for us.
506
00:35:20,493 --> 00:35:21,535
Come on.
507
00:35:21,536 --> 00:35:25,498
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
508
00:35:30,336 --> 00:35:32,170
Well, congratulations, y'all.
509
00:35:32,171 --> 00:35:33,756
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
510
00:35:40,221 --> 00:35:41,722
Bedrooms are upstairs.
511
00:36:09,542 --> 00:36:11,085
My.
512
00:36:15,089 --> 00:36:16,215
Well?
513
00:36:19,510 --> 00:36:22,137
At least, we'll have a funny
story to tell our kids about
514
00:36:22,138 --> 00:36:23,723
how we spent the wedding night.
515
00:36:24,515 --> 00:36:25,641
Kids?
516
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:28,811
I told you
I'm a man on a mission.
517
00:36:36,027 --> 00:36:37,153
What's wrong?
518
00:36:38,654 --> 00:36:40,531
I can't wait
to get out of the South.
519
00:36:46,662 --> 00:36:48,080
Whoa!
520
00:37:12,021 --> 00:37:13,231
Just in case.
521
00:37:31,624 --> 00:37:32,875
Can we talk?
522
00:37:33,417 --> 00:37:34,460
Yeah.
523
00:37:37,213 --> 00:37:38,339
Just getting paid.
524
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,040
Maybe we can go get breakfast.
525
00:37:42,051 --> 00:37:44,553
I know a great flapjack place
around the corner from here.
526
00:37:50,059 --> 00:37:52,477
I was just named minister of
527
00:37:52,478 --> 00:37:54,688
Temple No. 7 in Harlem.
528
00:37:54,689 --> 00:37:58,109
Wow. Congratulations.
529
00:37:59,902 --> 00:38:01,320
So what does that mean?
530
00:38:03,698 --> 00:38:07,617
Well, with
this opportunity comes the
531
00:38:07,618 --> 00:38:12,123
responsibility to focus
solely on the Nation,
532
00:38:13,791 --> 00:38:18,670
and that means putting my
past behind me along with
533
00:38:18,671 --> 00:38:20,298
everyone associated with it.
534
00:38:24,302 --> 00:38:25,469
What are you saying, Red?
535
00:38:33,227 --> 00:38:34,312
Right.
536
00:38:36,605 --> 00:38:37,856
So last night was just...
537
00:38:37,857 --> 00:38:40,192
A mistake.
I'm sorry.
538
00:38:44,989 --> 00:38:46,741
You know me as "Detroit Red."
539
00:38:47,658 --> 00:38:50,244
You always have and always will.
540
00:38:51,370 --> 00:38:53,080
But I've changed, okay?
541
00:38:54,290 --> 00:38:55,290
I'm not Red.
542
00:38:55,291 --> 00:38:56,500
I'm Malcolm.
543
00:38:58,419 --> 00:39:00,962
Well, I guess I'd
look pretty stupid right now if
544
00:39:00,963 --> 00:39:03,174
I'd let myself believe
last night was real.
545
00:39:06,677 --> 00:39:10,388
If I had just thought
for one second what a life
546
00:39:10,389 --> 00:39:11,724
with you would look like.
547
00:39:12,558 --> 00:39:14,226
The places we'd go,
the things we'd do.
548
00:39:15,478 --> 00:39:18,563
I guess I'd be pretty stupid
if I let myself get lost in
549
00:39:18,564 --> 00:39:19,689
any of that.
550
00:39:19,690 --> 00:39:20,774
Yeah, well, you're not stupid.
551
00:39:20,775 --> 00:39:25,154
I know I'm not.
And you haven't changed.
552
00:39:25,988 --> 00:39:28,365
You are still the same
impulsive person you
553
00:39:28,366 --> 00:39:29,657
have always been.
554
00:39:29,658 --> 00:39:31,534
Only now instead of bad choices,
555
00:39:31,535 --> 00:39:34,204
you are hiding behind somebody
else making them for you.
556
00:39:34,205 --> 00:39:35,581
I made this decision myself.
557
00:39:38,334 --> 00:39:39,960
Did you ever even care about me?
558
00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:49,010
Listen, I
meant what I said about
559
00:39:49,011 --> 00:39:51,222
the Nation, okay?
560
00:39:54,642 --> 00:39:55,768
It saved my life.
561
00:39:57,436 --> 00:39:59,772
And it can do the same
for you if you allow it,
562
00:40:01,148 --> 00:40:02,775
and I hope that you do.
563
00:41:43,918 --> 00:41:45,126
Good morning.
564
00:41:45,127 --> 00:41:46,462
Good morning.
565
00:41:46,962 --> 00:41:51,257
I had a, another
sermon I intended to preach
566
00:41:51,258 --> 00:41:52,550
to you today.
567
00:41:52,551 --> 00:41:56,262
One that encompass all that
I have learned in my many,
568
00:41:56,263 --> 00:42:00,642
many years of education and
preaching at my father's hip.
569
00:42:00,643 --> 00:42:02,101
Yeah.
Yes. Yes.
570
00:42:02,102 --> 00:42:03,187
Well, well.
571
00:42:07,066 --> 00:42:10,944
But I feel that
that sermon no longer speaks
572
00:42:10,945 --> 00:42:13,363
to the emotion I now have.
573
00:42:13,364 --> 00:42:16,783
I, instead, would like to use
it as a topic from which to
574
00:42:16,784 --> 00:42:18,409
preach a very common subject.
575
00:42:18,410 --> 00:42:19,619
Okay.
576
00:42:19,620 --> 00:42:22,705
One wondered by many
a people on many a land across
577
00:42:22,706 --> 00:42:25,959
every continent, in every
country, in every state,
578
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,294
in every city on
this God's planet.
579
00:42:28,295 --> 00:42:29,504
- Yeah.
- All right.
580
00:42:29,505 --> 00:42:30,588
Okay.
581
00:42:30,589 --> 00:42:32,840
A subject that,
despite this being my first
582
00:42:32,841 --> 00:42:37,303
time at your pulpit,
I have no doubt that we share
583
00:42:37,304 --> 00:42:38,721
a unique commonality.
584
00:42:38,722 --> 00:42:40,014
- Right.
- All right.
585
00:42:40,015 --> 00:42:41,432
Okay.
586
00:42:41,433 --> 00:42:42,809
The subject of who we are.
587
00:42:42,810 --> 00:42:44,102
All right, yes, yeah.
588
00:42:44,103 --> 00:42:45,186
Right, who we are.
589
00:42:45,187 --> 00:42:48,273
And who we are
is God's glory personified.
590
00:42:48,274 --> 00:42:50,359
Yes, yes.
591
00:42:52,861 --> 00:42:54,405
When I look out at you,
592
00:42:55,281 --> 00:42:56,948
I see we are
mothers and fathers.
593
00:42:56,949 --> 00:42:58,032
Yeah.
594
00:42:58,033 --> 00:42:59,450
We are sisters and brothers.
595
00:42:59,451 --> 00:43:00,535
- Yes.
- Yeah.
596
00:43:00,536 --> 00:43:01,619
- Yes, we are.
- Yes, we are.
597
00:43:01,620 --> 00:43:02,787
Men and women.
598
00:43:02,788 --> 00:43:04,508
But if we let others
tell it, we are slaves.
599
00:43:05,874 --> 00:43:07,209
We are second-class.
600
00:43:08,460 --> 00:43:12,213
We are agitators banging
at the door of segregation,
601
00:43:12,214 --> 00:43:14,841
asking to be let into
the house of equality.
602
00:43:14,842 --> 00:43:17,760
Well, in this moment,
I say we stop asking and
603
00:43:17,761 --> 00:43:18,845
we start demanding.
604
00:43:18,846 --> 00:43:19,930
- All right.
- Yeah, yes.
605
00:43:22,182 --> 00:43:25,351
In this moment,
we say equality is not a dirty
606
00:43:25,352 --> 00:43:28,771
word whispered in the
valley of despair but screamed
607
00:43:28,772 --> 00:43:30,481
from the peaks of prosperity.
608
00:43:30,482 --> 00:43:31,692
Yes, yes.
609
00:43:32,443 --> 00:43:35,403
In this moment, we
soar among the winds of change.
610
00:43:35,404 --> 00:43:36,487
- In this moment.
- Yeah, yeah.
611
00:43:36,488 --> 00:43:39,198
We will demand
change no matter what we face
612
00:43:39,199 --> 00:43:41,367
because we have
righteousness on our side.
613
00:43:41,368 --> 00:43:42,452
All right, all right, all right.
614
00:43:42,453 --> 00:43:44,662
Because we
have love on our side.
615
00:43:44,663 --> 00:43:47,081
And because we have
God on our side.
616
00:43:47,082 --> 00:43:49,042
All right. Hallelujah.
617
00:43:49,043 --> 00:43:50,878
Yes.
618
00:44:13,734 --> 00:44:14,735
Yes!
619
00:44:18,614 --> 00:44:22,117
Coretta, congratulations.
620
00:44:23,869 --> 00:44:25,995
We've got a lot of work to do
before our first performance,
621
00:44:25,996 --> 00:44:27,956
but you deserve to celebrate.
622
00:44:28,874 --> 00:44:29,999
You earned this.
623
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,709
Thank you, truly.
624
00:44:31,710 --> 00:44:32,836
This is amazing.
625
00:44:33,587 --> 00:44:36,924
I was just wondering,
what is the asterisk for?
626
00:44:38,801 --> 00:44:40,134
Some of our
performances will be in
627
00:44:40,135 --> 00:44:42,428
Southern cities, and
because you're a Negro,
628
00:44:42,429 --> 00:44:44,973
for those shows, your
understudy will fill in.
629
00:44:46,392 --> 00:44:48,143
But most of the
shows are in the South.
630
00:44:49,103 --> 00:44:50,145
I am sorry.
631
00:44:51,021 --> 00:44:53,399
Until the law is changed,
we have to abide by it.
632
00:44:59,446 --> 00:45:00,531
I got the part.
633
00:45:01,865 --> 00:45:03,534
Corrie.
634
00:45:04,702 --> 00:45:07,286
That's, that's great.
635
00:45:07,287 --> 00:45:08,372
Thank you, baby.
636
00:45:16,130 --> 00:45:18,924
There's something
I need to tell you.
637
00:45:21,468 --> 00:45:23,761
I got offered
a, a head pastor position.
638
00:45:23,762 --> 00:45:24,888
Where?
639
00:45:26,014 --> 00:45:28,726
At Dexter, in Montgomery.
640
00:45:32,688 --> 00:45:35,273
I thought it
was just a guest sermon.
641
00:45:35,274 --> 00:45:37,985
I thought so too
but it turned out it wasn't.
642
00:45:42,948 --> 00:45:46,493
Corrie, I know this
wasn't part of our plan.
643
00:45:47,828 --> 00:45:49,747
I know this may sound abrupt,
644
00:45:52,291 --> 00:45:53,917
but I think I wanna do this.
645
00:45:56,670 --> 00:45:59,172
Listen, I know how hard
you've worked on your
646
00:45:59,173 --> 00:46:01,466
music career and
how far you've come.
647
00:46:01,467 --> 00:46:04,052
I know there'll be other
pastor opportunities for me,
648
00:46:04,762 --> 00:46:07,430
but if things aren't right
for Negroes in the South,
649
00:46:07,431 --> 00:46:10,017
they aren't gonna be right
anywhere in this country.
650
00:46:19,610 --> 00:46:20,611
Corrie,
651
00:46:23,864 --> 00:46:26,657
we both have been
afforded opportunities to go up
652
00:46:26,658 --> 00:46:30,453
North and experience what
America could be for Negroes.
653
00:46:30,454 --> 00:46:34,081
We need to, to pay
that forward and take these
654
00:46:34,082 --> 00:46:36,918
educations we've gotten and
make where we come from better.
655
00:46:36,919 --> 00:46:38,211
And it starts with us, Corrie.
656
00:46:38,212 --> 00:46:40,380
I agree.
We should go to Montgomery.
657
00:46:43,342 --> 00:46:47,429
The shadow of Jim Crow
evil looms over everything.
658
00:46:48,138 --> 00:46:49,680
It's not gonna change itself.
659
00:46:49,681 --> 00:46:50,933
Someone has to change it.
660
00:46:52,601 --> 00:46:54,269
I think I can be that someone,
661
00:46:55,729 --> 00:46:58,524
but I need you by my
side when I do it.
662
00:47:00,275 --> 00:47:03,110
Something remarkable is
unfolding in the South.
663
00:47:03,111 --> 00:47:04,196
I can feel it.
664
00:47:04,947 --> 00:47:07,324
Then it's best
we be on hand to witness it.
665
00:47:08,367 --> 00:47:09,868
We will do more than witness it.
666
00:47:11,370 --> 00:47:12,412
We will lead it.
667
00:47:13,580 --> 00:47:14,915
And God will show us the way.
668
00:48:28,405 --> 00:48:29,448
Blow me over.
669
00:48:30,365 --> 00:48:32,576
You came all this way to
Harlem and didn't tell me?
670
00:48:34,995 --> 00:48:37,873
Well, it was unexpected.
671
00:48:42,711 --> 00:48:43,837
Reginald, we need to talk.
672
00:49:07,069 --> 00:49:08,152
What is it?
673
00:49:08,153 --> 00:49:10,906
On behalf of
the Honorable Elijah Muhammad,
674
00:49:13,367 --> 00:49:17,329
your duties within the Nation
will no longer be required.
675
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:24,001
From this point forward, your
title as Head Minister here in
676
00:49:24,002 --> 00:49:28,005
Harlem is in recess and
will be further discussed
677
00:49:28,006 --> 00:49:29,466
within our organization.
678
00:49:31,635 --> 00:49:34,845
It's incumbent upon me to
inform you to remove your
679
00:49:34,846 --> 00:49:36,681
belongings immediately.
680
00:49:36,682 --> 00:49:38,350
Under what grounds?
681
00:49:42,646 --> 00:49:45,315
Confirmation of
an inappropriate relationship.
682
00:49:46,316 --> 00:49:48,902
And you believe it?
683
00:49:52,990 --> 00:49:55,993
I didn't do what they're saying
or whatever they're saying.
684
00:49:58,912 --> 00:50:01,498
And I don't need
to defend myself,
685
00:50:02,582 --> 00:50:04,126
especially to family.
686
00:50:05,502 --> 00:50:07,753
This, this is all insane.
687
00:50:07,754 --> 00:50:09,380
The Honorable
Elijah Muhammad would not
688
00:50:09,381 --> 00:50:10,464
make a mistake.
689
00:50:10,465 --> 00:50:12,174
And you're gonna
believe him over me?
690
00:50:12,175 --> 00:50:15,137
If it wasn't for me, you,
you wouldn't be in the Nation.
691
00:50:23,020 --> 00:50:25,814
Don't, don't, don't,
don't do this.
692
00:50:28,942 --> 00:50:32,654
Brother Reginald,
it's time to go.
693
00:50:36,950 --> 00:50:38,035
Please?
694
00:50:39,828 --> 00:50:41,163
I'm sorry, Reginald.
