Watch Free Higher Learning (1995) Watch for Free Romance Edit

A little bit, but we're on the same team.

A multicultural peace fest organized in the interest of campus unity...

A tremendous effort by John Paul College...

About to take a semester off, let the shit cool.

About your side of the room.

Actually, better yet, you ever shoot a piece of meat?

Adam Bailey out very well in lane four for Columbus University.

Ain't no next time. All I'm saying is this.

All of them white.

All right, come here, darling.

All right, here we go.

All right, I'll see what I can do.

All right, let's break it up. Everything is fine now.

All right, motherfucker? Go to sleep.

All right, then.

All right! What a big girl you are, huh?

All right.

All right.

All right. " Marvin Anthony, Wendy Arrington, Tanya Arroyo...

All right. Give us a big smile now.

All these people turn around and look you dead in your eye.

All's it was was an excuse to get out of Idaho.

Am I right?

And don't use the same word every single time.

And I'm getting mine.

And if there should be anything at all that you wanna talk about...

And in lane six, the non scoring B team from Columbus University.

And me. We're brothers by blood.

And over there, that's south of the border.

And there's Chinatown.

And this is Claudia, right?

And this right here is the black hole because we're black folks.

And...

Anyone?

Are you afraid?

Are you having problems here at Columbus?

Are you ready?

Are you sure you're ready f or that?

Are you sure? I mean, I don't understand this.

As a black man in America, my stress comes from everywhere.

Baby, you're just gonna have to get a job.

Bam. Of all times.

Be sure and stay away from the white girls from now on. I know you will.

Because I done already learned the game, fresh fish.

Because I'd whoop your ass, that's why.

Because in the real world, no one wants to hear excuses or empty rhetoric.

Because of some quota.

Been here six years and still haven't graduated.

Beer out of a condom... That's a new one. Write that down.

Before we begin...

Being black does not free you from being a responsible individual.

Billy, come on.

Billy, get off of me! Get off of me!

Billy, no! Stop it! Get a condom!

Billy, we should be using a condom.

Billy, you've gotta get a rubber.

Biographies are up there.

Bitch.

Boy, I'm the master of Monopoly.

But are you?

But being a responsible individual don't free you from being black.

But I'll tell you this. There's nobody on this campus who parties like we do!

But I'm just... I'm at the point where...

But the lesson taught here today...

But y'all got them credit cards, huh?

But you ain't been honest.

But... I don't understand.

Buy stuff out your means and wonder why you still a slave.

Bye.

Calm your ass down. Calm down. What is wrong with you, man?

Can you hand me another one of those mayonnaise?

Change it up. Professors hate that.

Charlie, look what I found in the kid's room.

Check out this situation.

Check this out, man.

Class is a state of mind.

Columbus University.

Come here.

Come here. Hey! Hey!

Come on, girls, let's go.

Come on, give me some juice. There you go.

Come on, guys, pick it up!

Come on, man, listen. I'm sorry.

Come on, Remy! Do it for the Aryan Nation!

Come on!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come to the Peace Fest.

Crazy stuff.

Crazy!

David doesn't even know if he's going to school next semester.

Did you write this paper?

Dig.

Dig.

Dirty ******. Got something to say now?

Do you feel better?

Do you have any ideas or thoughts you want to share?

Do you hear me, Mr. Williams?

Do you hear me?

Do you like to hike?

Don't do it just because you're fascinated.

Don't do this. Put it down.

Don't ever point a gun at me ever again. You'll be sorry.

Don't I know you? Everybody else, come out with the I.D.'s.

Don't move, fucker.

Don't sweat it.

Don't that make you upset as a black woman?

Don't you have some business to attend to?

Don't you know he controls you, ******? You ain't nothing without them.

Don't you know I came from the master race?

Don't you know I'm superior to you?

Don't you understand? This is all a game. All of this.

Down the backstretch they go. Columbus in four, John Paul in five.

Down the hatch.

Drink! Drink! Drink!

Drink! Drink! Drink!

Dude, when are you gonna clear everyone out? Classes start tomorrow.

Even if she was here, I don't think she'd wanna talk to you.

Every time something comes up missing, who you think they look at?

Everybody says things one way, and you talk to me that way?

Everybody, stay calm. Don't panic.

Everything's gonna be fine. Take it easy. Just relax.

Excuse me? Why don't I get my shit and move out?

Excuse me.

Fellas, hey.

Fight! Fight! Fight!

Financial institutions, they controlling the whole thing.

First off, don't ever touch me again.

Fool wasn't nothing but a thief, mass murderer.

Fool, all you is, all you ever gonna be, is a runner. Like a horse.

For a class. That's the only reason you're reading it?

For Eurocentric indoctrination...

For example, you are a runner, are you not?

For those reasons, you have my utmost respect...

Forget these guys.

Frederick Douglass.

Fresh woman?

Fuck all those fucking ******s. They're all gonna fucking die.

Fuck that! We need to just bust his shit!

Fuck you, you big eared faggot!

Fuck you, you big eared faggot!

Fuck you! You don't fucking scare me!

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fuck!

Fucking gun control department.

Fucking hotshot ape. You're nothing, Malik! You're nothing!

Fucking Malik. I'm gonna get him. Fuck him!

Fucking Malik's a piece of shit. It's all right. We're coming back, man.

Fucking Rambo, man! No way I can miss.

Fudge, you got some e mail coming through.

Gang members? We go to school here too!

Get off my field.

Get on the floor!

Get that "We Are the World" stuff out of your head...

Get those kids to move out so we can clear this area.

Get your shit together, bitch! Stupid bitch!

Getting ready for the anchor lea.

Getting ready now for the first exchange.

Girl!

Glad you had a good time. Come again on the weekend.

Go ahead, then.

Go get some help, boy!

Go on and kill one of them, man. Big shot.

Go!

Go.

Good afternoon, Mr. Williams.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night. Okay.

Got to get my head straight.

Got to think.

Happy Halloween, brother!

He became submerged in the race mixture. He gradually lost..."

He had a fucking gun! A fucking gun!

He's all depressed. His parents have him going to a shrink.

He's always talking about the world coming to an end.

Hell, no.

Hence, the creation that is America.

Here she goes.

Here, blot it some.

Here.

Here's your card.

Hey, do you think we should've let Kristen go with Billy?

Hey, how you get turned on to Douglass?

Hey, kid. What are you doing, kid?

Hey, listen, my friends. You are the few, the proud, the next...

Hey, man. Malik, wait up.

Hey, we got an outreach program here where we really tap into the community.

Hey, why you going to this school?

Hey, y'all ain't got no Kool Aid up in this piece, man? Guess not.

Hey, yo, trooper. What's up, man?

Hey, yo, what kind of munchies y'all got?

Hey!

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey. Kristen.

Hi, everybody.

Hi, here's a flyer f or the Peace Fest. Take a flyer.

Hi.

History's proven you can be the smartest, run the fastest...

Hope you gonna break up their party like you did ours.

How do we become Little Sisters?

How do you feel knowing that when you graduate from college...

How do you feel knowing this country doesn't belong to you any longer?

How many people came here to change the world?

How many people came here to learn how to make a lot of money?

How would you feel if you had to study and I came in and blasted my music?

However, the social order of the day...

I ain't come here to have no white boy pull a gun in my f ace.

I ain't going nowhere without you.

I ain't no dumb athlete.

I am afraid it is unclear.

I am getting my own apartment next semester.

I am looking f or evidence of original thought.

I am not in your way.

I am your instructor. My name is Professor Maurice Phipps.

I beat him. I'm the man. I'm God!

I bet you they make you do something, right?

I can't help that. That's what it shows.

I can't take this no more.

I could have got that in the ghetto.

I did not ask you to come to this university...

I didn't ask f or this. I just wanna go to school.

I didn't come here to learn that...

I don't give a shit what you do with your stuff...

I don't have anything to prove.

I don't know about that no more.

I don't know anybody down here.

I don't know.

I don't see security stopping you on campus to see your I.D.

I don't see these white folks worrying about nothing but going to class...

I don't think like that. All right, man, it's just...

I don't understand why they always have to start all this trouble.

I don't wanna hear you're lax in your studies or fucking up on the field.

I don't wanna talk to you. I don't need to talk.

I don't want him.

I don't want you to do anything that you don't wanna do.

I feel like this is all my fault.

I figure, it ain't what a person say, it's what they think.

I finished my paper and I don't have anything to do.

I fucking hate you!

I got a lot riding on this. I'm not about to let my stats get blown.

I got a problem with the way fools be tripping when they see a black f ace.

I got guys on this field who'll clean your clock in five seconds.

I got physics in the morning. It's like friggin' Soul Train up there.

I gotta run and study, man.

I guess I never thought about that, man.

I had his ass like this:

I have nothing to prove, unlike you.

I have.

I heard you been disrespecting black women.

I helped put this whole thing together.

I just got here. Have you met anybody yet?

I just left the Row 'cause my friends were drinking and acting crazy.

I just need to talk to Kristen.

I just wanted to know if you wanted to get a drink.

I just went my own way.

I know how to handle guns, man. I been shooting since I was 9.

I know she's there. I can hear her.

I know.

I know.

I like it that you understand me.

I like that.

I like your beautiful hair, your eyes, your lips.

I lost my girl here.

I love you!

I mean, we're white, in America, what more do you need?

I mean, what do you think of that?

I never really wanted to go anyway, man.

I said I'm gonna take me a break. Look at me!

I said, me and my buddies were gonna go get a drink. You wanna come along?

I said, shut the fuck up!

I see y'all got some Evian up in here, though, huh?

I seen you around.

I seen you too, acting like you all that.

I stand up. I'd probably be so embarrassed...

I think I'm gonna cry.

I think you're cool, man.

I think you're nice.

I thought that, when you write, you're supposed to be as objective as possible.

I thought you and David might want to live together.

I thought you was a smart one, but you ain't. So you got to go.

I try and go everyday. I was there this morning. The light was beautiful.

I understand you're pissed. But I'm not like that, Malik.

I want to.

I want you to be sure.

I want you to say, "I apologize, beautiful black woman...

I wanted to build things. I wanted to be an engineer.

I was fit to kill one of them white boys. You know what I'm saying?

I was getting worried about you.

I was ****d.

I will beat you to the fucking ground, boy.

I won't hurt you.

I worked my ass off on that paper. I rewrote it three times.

I'd do it.

I'll do it.

I'll feel better tonight.

I'll guard your body. Be your bodyguard.

I'll take my fucking belt off, man. I'll make you my fucking monkey.

I'm a freshman.

I'm a man! You're nothing!

I'm a man. I'm the man.

I'm a threat, educated or not.

I'm different.

I'm fine.

I'm gonna call secur... He broke the phone. We gotta call security.

I'm gonna go now.

I'm gonna kick your ass, whatever ass you got left, fool!

I'm gonna kill communication. This looks suspicious. All right?

I'm gonna kill you!

I'm just a pawn like everybody else.

I'm not fooling. You got something to say now?

I'm not like that. I'm no white supremacist!

I'm responsible f or all of this.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I apologize, black mother...

I'm staying with some homies now.

I'm telling you, man. Remy's right, man. It's their gang against our gang.

I'm tired of feeling like a thoroughbred.

I'm tired of hearing women cry f or someone else to save them.

I'm tired of hearing your bullshit. I'm tired of you trying to rev everybody up.

I'm tired of running and studying.

I'm trying to catch this dude who just pulled a gun on me!

I've been seeing you on the track, having a little attitude.

I've never really tried it.

If it all went down today...

If the Dred Scott decision was retried in a contemporary court...

If there's one thing I want you to leave thinking about tonight...

If they can stand over there together, we can stand here together.

If you could spell as well as you run, it would be better, Mr. Williams.

If you don't have the information, one cannot seize power.

If you don't, you ain't nothing but a race traitor yourself, you hear?

If you wish to write about objectivity...

In future, Miss Connor, please find your own thesis.

In lane three, the non scoring B team from John Paul College.

In the far turn, John Paul in five, Columbus in four, neck and neck.

Information is power.

Is that him? Well, all right, Kristen.

Is that right, old trout?

Is that right?

Is that right? Cool.

Is that right? So you in it f or the money or the knowledge?

Is that what you see?

It ain't nothing. She's just tripping, I guess.

It don't matter as long as they do the job.

It hurts.

It is laziness that has kept black people down in this country.

It is often taught and very rarely practiced.

It is that type of apathy that corrodes our country from within.

It is.

It says you got a partial athletic scholarship. Better talk to your coach.

It will be what you make of it. I am not a babysitter.

It's a war, man. This is the first battle in the war.

It's a waste of time. Instead, I fight with this:

It's about this, ******! See this? Yo, it's about this black fist, ******!

It's all good, though.

It's all right, though. Whipped his ass so bad...

It's all right.

It's different here than I thought it was gonna be.

It's different, man. You know.

It's f or Students f or a Non Sexist Society.

It's funny we never spoke before.

It's funny.

It's gonna be all right. Settle down.

It's just...

It's less physical now. It's more mental.

It's like that?

It's like the Bates Hotel over at my place.

It's Malik.

It's my world.

It's my world. It's my country.

It's near Disneyland.

It's not safe to walk around campus by yourself at night.

It's okay. We know. Put it down.

It's right here. Holland Hall. Real close.

It's too hard to do both. I feel like a slave.

Its origins, in f act, lie in the subject of landownership.

Jeez, I don't know. I'm gonna kick your ass. What does that mean?

Just 'cause it ain't up in my f ace, that don't mean it's not happening.

Just a second.

Just a second.

Just because you and I get along doesn't mean everybody else has to.

Just get away from him and come home with me.

Just wait a second. Shut up!

Kris, what the...? Wait!

Kris, what's the matter? Why are you crying?

Kris, what's wrong?

Kristen!

Kristen! Kristen! Kristen!

Kristen.

Kristen.

Kristen. I'm sorry. They're freshmen.

Ladies and gentlemen, do not waste my time.

Ladies and gentlemen, the next race on the track...

Lane number five, the scoring team from John Paul College.

Lane number four, the scoring team from Columbus University.

Leave and settle your debts. You may not return until you have done so.

Leave the white man in the cold. Goddamn affirmative action shit. Right?

Let us say you are running a race...

Let's give a big round of applause f or Eve's Plum.

Let's roll.

Let's take a trip around the world.

Like basketball, football, Mr. Big Time Track Star, a game.

Like things.

Like what?

Listen.

Little off today, baby, huh?

Look around you, man.

Look at all these pretty blue lights.

Look at it, man. It's filthy, it's funky, it's stinking, man.

Look at this fool with his cave bitch. It's a damn shame, man.

Look at this.

Look at this. Columbus disgusts me.

Look there, under the statue. You see them people?

Look what his homeboy did to your head.

Look, I don't need one of my own trying to treat me like I'm the enemy.

Look, why don't we just sit down?

Look, you know, I could just...

Looks like we got a problem with your fee bill.

Malik Williams. Mr. Williams, would you be kind enough...

Malik, what are you standing there f or?

Malik, what's wrong with you?

Malik, when you write an essay, you gotta follow a certain format.

Malik, you gotta get this to flow, and right now it's not flowing.

Malik.

Man, governments ain't running things no more.

Man, I don't know what to do.

Man, I don't know, you know?

Man, I gotta admit, you've been real polite about staying out of my way.

Man, you got some nerve.

Man...

May we have quiet for the start.

Maybe if I hadn't...

Maybe twice.

Me and a couple friends, we were gonna go get a drink.

Miss Connor, you don't appear to take any kind of position in this paper.

Miss Deja. Where you from? Texas, right?

Mr. White?

Mr. Williams, I do not appreciate, nor will I tolerate...

Mr. Williams, I treat everyone in my course exactly the same...

Mr. Williams, Mr. White, good afternoon.

Mr. Williams, please...

Mr. Williams?

Mr. Williams...

My dad got laid off from McDonnell Douglas last year.

My days are numbered, Wayne.

My name's Kristen.

My name's Taryn.

My pa's a survivalist. Used to kick my ass every day.

My roommate's a Mexican, I bet she got a scholarship.

My stomach was giving me trouble.

Need it f or a class.

Need to start charging y'all fools, like the university.

Never leave home without it.

Next.

Nice job. Hello! Good night.

Nice to meet you.

No means no! No means no! No means no!

No one in this class seems to have any initiative.

No wonder this nation is falling behind the rest of the world.

No, I'm not. Neither are you. That's the problem.

No, it's the blue light system.

No, let us see your I.D.

No, man, I haven't either...

No, man, I mean anybody.

No, man. That's white power.

No, no, no, you're right.

No, no. Actually, I don't know about that.

No, no. Because I dig rock 'n' roll.

No, thank you.

No, that is not reality. That is The Wizard of Oz.

No, we didn't.

No, we don't. Put the gun down.

No, you know what? You are worse than a fucking ******!

No! Stop it!

No! That's the wrong guy! That's the wrong guy!

No.

No. Decoration?

No. I know what you're trying to get at.

Now go to the financial aid office or appeal to the athletic department.

Now that the bureaucratic nonsense is out of the way, we'll get to...

Now you go find the asshole that pulled a gun on this man's f ace.

Now, I shall need one volunteer.

Now, question:

Oh, Christ Jesus.

Oh, God, what have you been drinking?

Oh, God.

Oh, man, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here.

Oh, man.

Oh, my dear Mr. Williams.

Oh, my God. Look at her hair.

Okay, let's go. Break it up. Come on.

Okay, who's the genius who matches roommates up?

Okay. Thanks.

On the fucking race traitors. On the fucking everybody.

On your marks!

One beat down will never compare to 439 years of captivity. Never.

One man with a white beard who sits behind his desk...

One of them was a gunman who took his own life after killing two students.

One's primary purpose at university level...

Or Asian.

Or because you are a woman.

Or because you are...

Or because you f ailed to get sufficient rest last night.

Or become a very powerful player himself.

Or Hispanic.

Or Indian.

Or, as it states in your schedule of courses, Political Science 101.

Pamela Burris, Eric Cannon, Kristen Connor, Judith Dantzig...

Partial? That's a mistake. I'm a full scholarship student.

Peace.

People are trying to sleep. Give them a little respect, huh?

People don't realize how far down the drain America has gone.

People would die to be where you are, and you tripping.

Peppermint?

Phipps' class, huh?

Phoney.

Pick up your stuff. Come on.

Please watch your language.

Please, put the gun down. It's okay.

Professor Phipps, I need this class f or my major. You know?

Promise me you won't drop out.

Pumped gas two years to buy this. Laser sighting.

Punctuation mistakes, misspellings...

Punk ass motherfucker.

Pussy.

Put her on the phone, you black bitch!

Put something cold on it.

Quit worrying about what people are thinking.

Read it f or yourself and not f or no damn class, though.

Reading in the dark is bad f or the eyes.

Recognize. Take a look around you.

Remember...

Remy, brother, you gotta do it now!

Remy, you ever shot somebody before?

Remy's fucking dead.

Rid yourself of this attitude that the world owes you something.

Right between the ******'s fucking eyes!

Right here, that's a really good point...

Right?

Right.

Right.

Right. I hope that all of you...

Right. Or white.

Ripped by the wildbunch22, thoroughly spell checked by rogard

Run on. Run on. Fragment. Fragment. Fragment.

Run, ******, run.

Say what you feel. You think I'm a ******?

Say, man.

Second place, 39.60.

Secondly, you know, I ain't no faggot.

Security.

Security.

See how he swole my shit up? Knuckles all fat and shit.

See if you can find a name or a picture or an I.D. in his room.

See, I'm smart enough to know it's not my game to play.

See, there's a phone at the end of every block.

Seems like everybody's sticking to their own...

Seems like this system is setup towards maintaining white supremacy.

Seen what bullets do to flesh?

Set!

Settle down. I got a question I want to ask you all.

She's dead!

She's not here.

Shit!

Shit.

Shoot, Remy, shoot!

Should've bought them apartments, man. I told you.

Show's over. Back to your rooms. Nothing to see here.

Shut the fuck up, Knocko. Show the man some respect.

Shut up. Well, here we are.

Skinhead fool who pulled a gun on me...

Slaughtered Native Americans, we got a holiday and a university named f or him?

So are you. You know?

So in my mind...

So Mr. Williams thinks I am an Uncle Tom.

So, where are you from?

So, you Fudge, huh? I heard about you.

So...

Some friends.

Some people use their mind, some use words...

Somebody's got a gun!

Somebody's got to do something about how tense it is.

Someone spit in your f ace when you first came to campus?

Soon as you hear a bell, y'all go running.

Sorry! I'm sorry! Look, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

Stick!

Stick! Stick!

Stop! No!

Students f or a Non Sexist Society.

Take it easy. Come on.

Talented, I see.

Thank you, Mr. Williams. You have served your purpose.

Thanks, man.

Thanks, Scott.

That don't count f or nothing, brother?

That event is scheduled in 10 minutes. Visit the concession stand...

That is a rule of journalism.

That remains to be seen.

That was great.

That was nice.

That way you can call security in case someone tries to grab you.

That'd make a good paper. I'll write that down.

That's cool, Scott.

That's Disneyland.

That's how you made it.

That's my job.

That's pure Aryan blood you're talking to.

That's right, man. A race war.

That's right.

That's right. I'd do it.

That's that old bullshit.

That's the Big Sky State, huh?

That's the way the system goes.

The American flag is right above your head.

The Aryan gave up the purity of his blood and, therefore, he also lost...

The common people became aware...

The credo "And liberty and justice for all"...

The enemy? Who is the enemy?

The IRS audited him. My parents could barely afford to send me here.

The mayor...

The more you learn about this system, the more upset you get.

The next race on the track will be the 1500 meters.

The purpose of this gathering is to bring together everyone...

The result would be the same no matter what the law states...

Them fools. They so lucky they called security.

Them fucking ******s out there, them fucking little monkeys...

Then be a man and call me one to my f ace.

Then roll your f at ass down the hall then.

Then your problem is financial. Not racial, but economic.

There are many ways to fight a battle. Different fronts f or different people.

There are no handouts in the free world...

There are people in this country who have profited from keeping us apart.

There are things that...

There are things we could've done better...

Therefore, the basic premise...

Therefore, these people...

These are my brothers here.

These dorms are f or children. I hate them. God.

These gang members dragged him out f or no reason.

These guns all suck.

These guys. I'm not trying to narc, but tomorrow's the first day of class.

These type of problems can be worked out.

They got you running f or the school, huh?

They moved me in with a psycho dickhead.

They own this couch you sitting on, them shoes on your feet...

They own this shit.

They probably make you drink beer out of condoms and wet your T shirt.

They want to know if you have a plan.

They wouldn't give a fuck about me if I wasn't running f or this school.

They'll let that harmless black woman through easier than a man.

They're about to play the national anthem.

They're just gonna make me feel like shit...

They're ready f or war.

Think about saving yourself.

Think what that means.

This ain't cool, dog. A " B" on content, and then I get a " C" f or...

This course will be like anything in life.

This here, this is Erik.

This incensed them...

This is a celebration of the commonality of these differences.

This is a gun, man.

This is a war. This is the opening stages of World War III.

This is brotherhood, Remy. Welcome home.

This is Columbus University, a great center of higher learning.

This is crazy.

This is fucked up. This is really fucked up.

This is my blood, man. It's white blood.

This will be dictated by your sex, background...

This, however, is a political science course.

This.

Those persons whose names are called, please stand.

Those persons whose names were called and whom are standing...

Thought so.

To formulate your own political ideology.

To steal what?

To the house.

Today I am going to give you your first lesson in politics. Are you ready?

Tyrene Jay for John Paul...

University administration has had nothing whatsoever to say.

Used intelligently, a pawn can create a checkmate, Mr. Williams.

Vikina Two to Vikina One.

Wait a second! Goddamn it!

Wait. Everything's okay now. It was just a misunderstanding.

Want to play again, man? Come on, let's play again.

Warrior representation. Yes.

Was there a cross burned outside your dormitory?

Watch it.

Watch me bring it up. Watch me bring it.

We ain't never had no beef, outside of your dirty clothes...

We are entitled to life...

We can't let the campus go crazy because of the actions of some psycho.

We could stay up and talk or...

We gonna pound their motherfucking ass...

We got a lot of work to do.

We gotta stick together, black men!

We have a fair start.

We have meetings Wednesdays if you want to come by.

We have to get her to the hospital.

We need more people like you to become doctors, lawyers, engineers.

We need to get past just complaining about university security.

We were talking about security on campus, in light of a recent survey...

We'll forget about it, have a drink...

We'll have to think about what we're doing next week.

We're behind enemy lines, dog.

We're coming back. ******s, spics, the fucking mud people, they'll get it.

We're cool now, right?

We're cool, right?

We're roommates, huh?

We're supposed to be learning their westernized thoughts...

We're white, in America, what more do you need to have a good time?

Welcome to the real world.

Well, because that's what they say you need to do to make it in the country.

Well, my first class is at 8:00.

Well, then go buy some more. What's "making it"?

Well, well, well.

Well, well, what do we got here? New recruits f or our Little Sister rush?

Well...

What about me?

What about you? Want to get an apartment together?

What are you doing? Let's go get some fucking candy!

What are you doing? No!

What are you gonna do, college boy? And you don't even got your GED.

What are you two doing sitting there? Plotting?

What are you, some queer or something?

What are you?

What do I think?

What do you do then? Do you leave the track?

What do you do?

What do you mean, "Break it up"? Look at those white folks there.

What do you mean, "we"? "We" don't have to do anything.

What do you mean?

What do you think about that, Remy?

What do you think happened here?

What do you think I should do?

What do you think they make you do to get into this f rat?

What do you think?

What does that have to do with your ability to place a comma properly...

What happened?

What happened?

What if there's snakes? Hey, Monet.

What is high?

What is higher learning?

What is higher learning?

What is higher?

What is learn?

What is learning?

What it is? I mean, what is it?

What the fuck are you talking about? How the fuck do you know?

What the fuck you talking about, white boy?

What you got there, Scott?

What you people have to realize is that despite having these rights...

What you talking about? This shit? He ain't fading nothing over here.

What, you shy?

What?

What's going on?

What's that all about?

What's that list f or, dog?

What's that shirt, man?

What's the point?

What's the point? The gooks and towel heads get the engineering jobs.

What's up with your girl? She out there looking kinda bugged.

What's up, bro? What did I do?

What's up, man?

What's up, man? Why'd you move all your stuff out?

What's up?

What's up?

What's wrong with it?

What's wrong with you?

When you say that you look really bad, like, you're perfect, you know?

Where are the vittles at? The eats?

Which one?

White boy pull a gun out in his f ace and you ask us to break it up?

White motherfucker!

White power, Remy! White power!

White power!

White power. White fucking power!

White, black, anybody who gets in the way of my progress.

Who do I have something to prove to?

Who taught you how to shoot?

Who?

Who?

Whoa, shit! Fucking white boy.

Why are y'all so quiet?

Why did you drop out of school?

Why do you need someone else to save you?

Why do you really want to come?

Why don't I just stay with you tonight?

Why don't we just fucking stop this and talk about it?

Why don't you get your shit and move out, man?

Why you always gotta take stuff so far?

Why you always trying to showboat? How come you're not dressed?

Why you fighting like some thug? This is college.

Why you testing me?

Why?

Why?!

Without struggle, there is no progress.

Word to the mother, kid. Have you seen that ass?

Would you?

Wow. You know what that is?

Y'all better recognize, I'm telling you.

Y'all could pay f or my laundry.

Y'all got some nerves. Fuck you! We ain't going nowhere.

Y'all probably don't even have checking accounts.

Y'all some trained n****es.

Yeah, all right. You can run, but you can't hide!

Yeah, and I bet she wants to show you just how different she can be, huh?

Yeah, and we also have these meetings as well...

Yeah, but I thought I just showed initiative.

Yeah, but it still ain't the same.

Yeah, I can dig that. He's weak anyway.

Yeah, I could tell.

Yeah, I guess I did.

Yeah, I just met somebody.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Yeah, it's all right.

Yeah, looking sweet.

Yeah, man, I understand.

Yeah, we're plotting. Plotting to steal.

Yeah, you got me too, Remy.

Yeah, you're right.

Yeah!

Yeah? You should go. Around here there's beautiful hills.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. You didn't bring no homies? Got any sisters?

Yep. I like this side of the room, but I guess you got here first.

Yes.

Yo, dog, take good notes. I'm gonna need to borrow them.

Yo!

Yo.

You a woman. I'm a black man.

You ain't educated yet.

You ain't sweating them because they're playing that hillbilly shit, right?

You ain't telling them to go.

You all work against me, the pure, white, Christian man.

You are not here to simply recycle dates and f acts from the past.

You at a football game. There's thousands of people there.

You bankrupt, G.

You be like:

You be looking at me, right?

You believe this? Do me a favor, will you?

You bet.

You called me a black bitch, and you gonna get your ass kicked.

You can't blame yourself, you know?

You damn **** and ******s stick together.

You do it. You do this shit, Remy!

You don't hear that down the hall?

You don't know shit, freshman.

You don't know what they're f or, do you?

You don't need to see nobody I.D. Don't show them.

You don't want to look like a tramp. You'll look desperate.

You don't?

You ever hear of the World Bank or the IMF? No, huh?

You fucked her, right? Did she like it?

You fucker!

You gonna die!

You got that? Do I make myself clear?

You got the autobiography of Frederick Douglass?

You gotta stop doing this all the time: And start doing this:

You have overcome many obstacles this semester.

You have the opportunity to go to school, and it's here. So take it.

You have yet to learn the rules of this game.

You just got laid, right? You should be cool.

You know what that's all about? They hate me 'cause they ain't me.

You know, getting a degree. You know, making that long dough.

You know, I'd stand up. You know what I'm saying?

You know?

You know?

You know?

You listen, you get it together and you do something f or your own people.

You listening to me?

You live near Disneyland?

You look like a bunch of girls! Come on, pick it up!

You must go now!

You must strip yourself of that mentality. It breeds laziness.

You need to think about becoming mentally competitive.

You play it to win.

You probably didn't even read it. TA graded all of these, right?

You really feel like insulting my intelligence, don't you?

You really should not have dropped out of school. You hear me?

You should know that democratic theory did not begin...

You should use a thesaurus. And where's your outline?

You start with your thesis statement...

You support the Black Panthers?

You the only weak link on this team.

You think because you're a superstar rookie you don't have to work?

You treat me like I'm Remy.

You wanna come along?

You want a non sexist society...

You, brave soul, come forward.

You're a slave, too ignorant to know it.

You're all gonna die. You're gonna die, monkey!

You're all hunky dory with your scholarship.

You're dead!

You're dead. You're dead.

You're gonna die now!

You're gonna drop out.

You're gonna have to be careful out here.

You're here to study, not to party. Head home and hit those books.

You're just a punk ass white boy with a fucked up haircut.

You're not me! What are you gonna do?

You're not white. You're *******. You're nothing.

You're nothing but a monkey. Look at me.

You're nothing! You're a slave.

You're right.

You're safe.

You're trembling.

You're using that reverse treatment...

Young lady, calm yourself and go to the financial aid office.

Your assignment f or the semester is as follows:

Your own country.

Your own presence should be motivation enough.
