A blind eye to what we'd done to our own.
A few of them, like John Lewis, they're still...
A full kitchen staff, including pastry chef and three full time calligraphers.
A goddamn fly, a goddamn fly in here.
A great change is at hand.
A Secret Serviceman has been...
A whole 'nother wave of n**** students
About everything Louis and his friends had done.
About that Kennedy boy. I'm sure he's a real nice fellow.
After all these guys that come after you?
After your long journey here from Buffalo.
Against the segregation of black Americans.
Aiding the oppression of black South Africans is absolutely consistent
Ain't no good can come of that.
Ain't no kids in the house no more.
Ain't no need for that, Carter.
Ain't nobody done nothing to spite you.
Ain't nobody trying to smell that stankin' okra.
Ain't ready for all them highfalutin white people,
Ain't that the truth? Or something.
All graduations are long. She was so nosy.
All puffed up.
All right, kids. It's show time.
All right, man.
All right, then.
All their fancy words.
All things are possible...
All you got to do is smile pretty,
Although we have started our own political party.
American citizen. What you talking about?
And a man will forget everything he ever learned.
And CNN can now project that Barack Obama, 47 years old,
And dill bring up the flavor.
And don't put that next to my jarred okra either.
And equal opportunities.
And even if you slow down, I got you.
And even though Miss Annabeth never said it,
And focus on their lessons.
And guess what? It's the butler's money.
And help me keep them n****es off the street.
And I did just that.
And I didn't know where I fit in.
And I didn't understand why we were there in the first place.
And I just don't think that's right, Mr. Warner.
And I knew I'd lived my life with those same two faces.
And I nodded my head, and the next thing I knew,
And I want it on the table right now.
And I'll tell you what. Next time there's a light on in an empty room,
And I'm coughing and strangling,
And it's very difficult for the colored staff to be promoted.
And move the new one in.
And not be punished for it.
And not just any white man, either.
And not to be laying up here in the gutter with you.
And now you asking for a job?
And our ground troops cannot go into...
And our task, our obligation, is to make that revolution,
And presumably we'll be able to see what's...
And presumably we'll be able to see what's...
And quiet when you're serving.
And send you on your way.
And soul and spirit of our national will.
And that's exactly what's gonna happen.
And the Irish, they certainly know how to make a great whiskey.
And then he told me I was the best mother
And then I went down... I didn't even get nothing to drink!
And then their weapons are weapons,
And then they're gonna throw your little ass in the river.
And there ain't nothing we can do about it.
And there are some big ones, especially California,
And those states have been going Democratic
And we are measuring our accomplishments in waves, right?
And we shall overcome.
And we're gonna employ it right here, in Nashville.
And what you asking me about it for? You never home.
And when you come back, I want you to get me some fish food.
And whup the both of us.
And why y'all need self defense?
And, please, don't tell Nancy.
Anticipate.
Any white man could kill any of us at any time
Anybody could ever want.
Appreciate the love and the woman that you are, like I do.
Are they getting involved in politics, too?
Are you all right?
Are you even in school?
Are you listening to us?
Are you political, Mr. Gaines?
Are you ready to kill somebody, Carol?
Are you still fussing about Louis?
Are you sure about this?
Arrests were made in mass lots.
As he drove from Dallas airport to downtown Dallas...
As members of the n**** community, what are your biggest concerns?
As most stay on for 30 years or more.
As the White House maître d', I normally hire the butler.
As we are a nation under God, so I am sworn...

At least we got it a little better in DC, huh?
At least you tell your wife what's going on over there.
At Little Rock, Arkansas.
Baby, you need... to move that to the other side.
Baby?
Baby?
Back in Macon, I'm a house ******, a good one.
Back there stinking up my bathroom.
Bailiff, get these ******s out of here.
Be a real contender for the President of the United States.
Beautiful.
Because I read in Woman's Day, where pickles drown out the flavor

But his movies have him fighting for equal rights.
But I also knew she wanted me to leave that place.
But I believe the French have a distinct advantage
But I didn't go. I wasn't gonna give money to pay for my son to be killed.
But I never imagined I'd see...
But I think he's doing that freedom riding thing.
But I'm trying not to be so scared anymore.
But if Faubus continues to block the n**** children, then what do we do?
But if you're unhappy with your salary or position,
But it needs a patience that none of us have ever seen.
But my staff has been trying to get me to stop.

But really it's all of us...
But the pain in my heart never went away.
But the president prefers for me to serve him personally.
But the white people's best friend is dead.
But then when you align things properly,

But these camps went on for 200 years
But you and that White House can kiss my ass.
But you're the best butler here.
But your mama, she wants you home.

Excited about not going back.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.

Fighting to save the soul of our country.
Fill your britches out. Just remember where I found you.
First, a barrage of cover fire,
Fisk is a really good school, Dad.
For a well dressed, young white man seen running from the scene.
For all that time, the black help
For his own people and others,
For it was sickness, not meanness, that killed him.
Forget it. You're ignorant.
Forgive me for saying this, Mr. Fallows.
Four years. That's what makes you a little bit gullible, darling.

Gloria and I met working at the Excelsior.
Gloria and I would walk to our polling place
Gloria looked so happy, but I didn't feel the same way.
Gloria...

He crazy like his mama.

He drives me crazy. He just... Ugh!
He found me on the kitchen floor.
He had hit me with a baseball bat.
He just got his master's! What more you want him to do?
He just won the Academy Award.
He must be paying you top dollar, huh, boss?
He must be used to it.
He offered me a job as a butler.
He oversees operations for the entire White House.
He refuses to play in any country that recognizes Franco's regime.
He said he wasn't going to get beat no more, so...
He said he's gonna be here for us.
He should be hurting, Carter.
He slowly tears down racial hatred
He take you to the White House yet?
He told me to tell you to take this up with him, personally.
He was a hero,
He was saying all that stuff about house n****es.
He wasn't no older than Louis. He was 14 at the time.
He's a butler.
He's a doctor. What does your dad do?
He's breaking down barriers for all of us.
He's full of shit is what he is. He ain't doing nothing right.

How do you measure these things?
How do you not have a boyfriend?
How long y'all been dating?
How many kids did you kill today?!
How many kids did you kill today?!
How many kids we got coming to the breakfast tomorrow morning?
How many pairs of shoes does she have?
How many pairs of shoes she got?
How much did he lose by?

How the hell do I know?
How you avoid all that sex in prison?
How you expect me to believe you was down at the numbers spot?
How's Gloria doing with that drinking?
How's your boy doing, Cecil?
Hurry up!
I ain't starting it, I just don't know what kind of name that is.
I also feel that we should have...
I am so... I'm so sick of these numbers spot stories, Howard.
I am therefore asking the Congress
I am.
I appreciate it.
I been fixing to trying to see him.
I believe he might be in Selma.
I believe that our salaries should reflect our service, sir.
I bet you wish I spoke French, just like Jackie.
I brought you all something.
I brought you into this world, I can take you out of it.
I came here to protest with you.
I can't see any situation where I'd send federal troops to the South.
I can't tell you if I walked off the bus
I cannot believe you are still talking about Howard University.
I cannot even allow hate to enter my heart at this time,
I care about what goes on in this house.
I certainly wouldn't want to be hired under circumstances
I could cut back them long hours at the White House.
I could see the two faces the butlers wore to survive.
I couldn't.
I dated a girl once. Every time I hit her, she shit herself.
I didn't expect to hear from you on my birthday.
I didn't go to school, Mr. President.
I didn't know how.
I didn't know if I was gonna get home alive.
I didn't know if my boy was dead or alive.
I didn't know that an old man could feel so lost.
I didn't mean to make fun of your hero.
I don't care nothing about Louis being pissed.
I don't care what goes on in that house.
I don't drink.
I don't even want to hear you breathe.
I don't know how many stories you gonna hear,
I don't know how my oldest is, Mr. President.
I don't know what country I'm looking at.
I don't know, maybe he got what he deserved.
I don't proclaim to know everything. But I promise you...
I don't talk about your dad, all right?
I don't think God meant for people to not have a family.
I don't understand. I don't understand why he can't
I don't want to say anything negative
I don't, but you know what I mean.
I feel rich right now. I like the way that tastes.
I forgot where I put my Bible.
I got all the cake I want right here.
I got it.
I got it. She's all right.
I got my master's in political science.
I got out of there so we could have us a better life.
I got to go, Dad.
I got to go.
I grew up on a cotton farm.
I grew up on a farm.
I guess I can put up with the name Shaquanda.
I guess I wished we were there for real instead of for show.
I guess you'll be moving on then.
I had always loved sewing. But just felt different now.
I had passed out.
I have today issued an executive order
I have your chicken soup, Mr. President.
I hope it wasn't too presumptuous of me
I just don't feel like doing no disco.
I just need to get my butt home to Gloria.
I just want to be the one to tell you first, that's all.
I just want to know where the man's coming from.
I just want to see you move a little bit. Go ahead.
I just wanted to tell you what an honor it is to meet you, sir.
I knew exactly what I wanted to be when I was 13.
I knew she'd miss me, too.
I knew that Gloria had been unhappy for some time now.
I knew that's probably why she drank.
I know the way.
I know we ain't seen eye to eye,
I know what to make of him.
I know your son is a Freedom Ryder.
I know.
I know. I got an idea.
I like Sidney Poitier, Daddy.
I like that. I like that.
I like to party. What's your party called?
I like to send people money when they write me
I love you more, Gloria.
I love you, Cecil Gaines.
I made sure that they never laid eyes on a cotton field.
I mean, really! Shaquanda?
I mean...
I meant it in a good way.
I might be able to answer that question if Carter over here
I miss you at night, honey.
I need to hear "******" coming out of your mouth.
I never dreamed my life could be so good.
I play a mean... skin flute.
I put a towel down.
I really am.
I received also a wire from President Eisenhower, which says...
I remember that story just like it was yesterday,
I said, how many pairs of shoes does Mrs. Jackie Kennedy have?
I saw you get mad.
I say again.
I say, "I can't."
I see you got... your mark here.
I sometimes fear I'm...
I tend to not be too concerned
I think Judge Warren is going to find that quite challenging.
I think she done that just to spite me.
I think that's bon appétit, everybody.
I think we should go to Shantay's tonight.
I think you ought to call him.
I think you should call him.
I think, about now...
I think... she look just like you.
I told him to hire you.
I told Louis that the president was gonna make things better for us.
I told the president that you'd say that.
I took that job up in Washington, DC.
I understand that sounds provocative, but it's true.
I understand, Mr. President,
I use orange juice when I make 'em,
I want my money back.
I want some scotch.
I want to fight for my country.
I want to know every goddamn domestic policy decision right now,
I want to make myself clear on this issue.
I want to work at the White House just like Mr. Gaines.
I want you out of my house.
I want you to come home.
I want you to go put it on, upstairs.
I want you to listen to me, Louis.
I want your number running ass up out of my house,
I was hungry all the time.
I was on the ground.
I was thinking about taking it, but I don't know.
I will be forced to veto those sanctions.
I will exercise my rights as an American citizen.
I will fire every sorry son of a bitch in this house. I mean it, Cecil!
I wish they'd shut up.
I would have put money on it
I... have a...
I'd do it real quick.
I'd gone to the bathroom all over myself.
I'd like to invite you to the State Dinner next week.
I'll make you some ham sandwiches
I'll play the bongos. What about you?
I'll tell you what I did. I put some dill in it,
I'll tell you what. When I'm president, I'm gonna look into getting you boys
I'll wait for your signature.
I'm Admiral Rochon, the chief usher.
I'm Carter Wilson, head butler. Don't worry about Big Mo behind you.
I'm Cecil Gaines. I'm the new butler.
I'm going to Vietnam.
I'm gonna come out of this thing stronger than ever.
I'm gonna get my purse and...
I'm gonna have to be paid the same as the white help,
I'm gonna have to lie to the boss man about that window.
I'm gonna have you in the house now.
I'm gonna make some potato salad.
I'm gonna snatch the life out of you, boy!
I'm guessing he's pretty beat up, but based on his record,
I'm just fine right here.
I'm just now finding my way around this hotel.
I'm late for work.
I'm not comfortable with all the foreign policy hawks
I'm not gonna remember any of your names, but I'm gonna try.
I'm not just sitting up there sewing for you all day.
I'm not sure what to make of Malcolm X.
I'm not sure. This end, maybe over there?
I'm really proud of you.
I'm really sorry about the president.
I'm sick and tired of getting thrown in jail.
I'm sorry, son.
I'm sorry! I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, ma'am.
I'm talking about you and Isaac.
I'm the one pissed. He ain't been here in three years.
I'm too old to be leaving North Carolina.
I'm trying to change the way n****es...
I'm... I'm through. I told you.
I've been here for over 20 years now.
I've made my decision.
If anybody's uncomfortable with that, you know where the door is.
If Congress passes sanctions against South Africa,
If Congress passes this bill,
If I can't sit at any lunch counter I want,
If it comes to it, yes.
If our only weapon is love,
If someone puts their hands on you, put them in the cemetery.
If there is anyone out there
If we're ever going to thaw this ice.
If you need anything, you call me.
If you want us to shop in this establishment, make them go.
In Birmingham, Alabama, to bring attention to their efforts
In demonstrations, parades and protests.
In his native land, or anywhere that he's being oppressed...
In many ways, they are subversive, without even knowing it.
In our district alone, we have nine percent unemployment.
In presidential contests in recent years.
In the country at large, 14 percent are living below the poverty line.
In the Heat of the Night.
In the Heat... of the Night, with Sidney Poitier.
In the white schools.
Is 'cause two of them were white.
Is not yet known.
Is that cotton?
Is that that Mamie Till stuff?
Is that what you want?
Is that... Louis XIII?
Is there anything else that you would like, Mr. President?
Is there anything else that you would like...
Is, uh, all the rest of the students
It is a crisis that strikes at the very hear':
It is my right to ride that bus. That is my legal right.
It is reported that three bullets rang out.
It is to Vietnamese what old Boston is to Americans,
It really does.
It was a dis damn grace what they did to that boy.
It was a surprise for me, as well.
It was different sitting at the table instead of serving it.
It was in one of them colored newspapers from Baltimore. That all right with you?
It was in one of them colored newspapers from Baltimore. That all right with you?
It was much nicer working in the house than in the field.
It was the first time I ever seen a white man stick his neck out for us.
It was the first time I felt like I didn't belong in my own neighborhood.
It was the most beautiful hotel I'd ever seen.
It was the only world I ever knew.
It worked when we started,
It'd be good if it had a little... a little nipple on it.
It'd be good if it had a little... a little nipple on it.
It's all right.
It's filled With hate.
It's gonna be very difficult to pass another bill anytime soon.
It's just a mess. Be nice.
It's just gonna take some time to adjust, that's all.
It's just so far away, that's all.
It's never gonna happen.
It's the wrong house.
It's time we take a stand against these injustices
It's too scary. They're too young for it.
It's Uncle Tom's money.
It's... It's Gloria, yes?
Its denial is an arbitrary indignity
Jackie Kennedy.
Jackie Robinson or Willie Mays?
James told me that Dr. King told the president
Jessie. It's a good thing you're here 'cause I'm gonna forget.
Jesus Christ.
Jim, I need your help over here.
John and I strongly agree that the time calls for...
Just because.
Just before I put her to sleep.
Just for looking at a white woman.
Just go to bed, Gloria. I'll take him tomorrow.
Just playing with you.
Just set it on the table, Cecil.
Just want to keep him safe.
Keep doing what you doing.
Killing two of them, they raided the apartment...
Lady Bird and I want you to have this.
