AND HOLD ON.

WE AIN'T IN HERE FOREVER,

WE CAN COME THROUGH.

YEAH, MAN,

WE CAN COME THROUGH.

STAY STRONG,

AFRICAN MAN!

STAY STRONG.

COME THROUGH.

[KKK]

I TRIED HATING YOU,

DISMISSING YOU,

DEMONIZING YOU.

BUT YOU'D TAKEN OVER

A ROOM IN MY BRAIN,

AND WAS HOLDING:

A PART OF ME HOSTAGE.

SO I GAVE IN AND WRIT YOU.

I NEVER THOUGH IN A MILLION YEARS

YOU'D ACTUALLY COME.

SO, YOU'RE NOT GONNA ASK ME

TO BAKE YOU A CAKE

WITH A FILE IN IT?

SHOW YOU MY TITS

WHILE YOU WANK FURTIVELY?

WELL, I'M DISAPPOINTED.

I WAS LOOKING FORWARD

TO BEING OUTRAGED.

SO WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

WE DON'T TALK ABOU THEM THINGS IN HERE.

I AIN'T IN THERE.

NO, YOU'RE OUT THERE,

JUDGING ME.

WELL, THANKS

FOR COMING, YEAH?

F***ING B*TCH.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

YEAH, GWAN, RUN,

LIKE EVERYONE ELSE RUN.

RUN FROM THE DEVIL,

GWAN,

RUN FROM YOUR SHAME.

THE SHAME YOU FEEL

WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME.

ANOTHER BLACK MAN

IN JAIL.

ANOTHER BLACK MAN

BRINGING DOWN THE RACE.

ANOTHER BLACK MAN

WITH NO SHAME.

I ATTACKED SOMEONE.

HURT 'EM BAD.

BRAIN DAMAGE.

WHY?

HE WAS GAY,

HE WAS WHITE,

HE WAS THERE.

I DISGUST YOU,

INNIT?

YOU HATE ME.

I DON'T KNOW.

DID YOU HATE HIM?

I DIDN'T KNOW HIM.

ACTUALLY, YEAH,

I MEAN WHAT, LIKE,

MAN AND MAN TOGETHER,

I MEAN,

JUST, IT AIN'T RIGHT,

THAT'S IN THE BIBLE.

YOU KNOW THE BIBLE WELL,

THEN, DO YOU?

I KNOW THAT PART.

YOU A CHRISTIAN, THEN?

THAT'S HOW I WAS RAISED.

FINALLY,

SOMETHING IN COMMON.

I'M A BI OF A JESUS FAN, ME.

"IF THINE EYE OFFEND THEE,

PLUCK IT OUT."

"JUDGE NOT,

LEST YE BE JUDGED."

NOT A WORD ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY,

FUNNILY ENOUGH AS I RECALL,

EXCEPT MAYBE "BLESSED ARE THEY

THAT ARE PERSECUTED FOR

RIGHTEOUSNESS SAKE."

GAYS AIN'T PERSECUTED,

THEY'RE PROMOTED.

THE TV'S SCREAMING LIKE

"BE GAY, BE FUNNY!"

GIVIN' STRAIGHT MEN

MAKE-OVERS

LIKE WE CAN'T DRESS

OURSELVES!

SO WHAT IF:

EVERYONE WAS GAY?

THE HUMAN RACE:

WOULD DIE OUT, INNIT?

I MEAN, IT'S OUR PURPOSE

TO BREED.

OUR IMPERATIVE.

HOW MANY KIDS YOU GOT?

FOUR.

DON'T THINK

THERE'S MUCH CHANCE

OF THE HUMAN RACE DYING OU WITH YOU AROUND, MATE.

YOU AIN'T GONNA CONVINCE ME

THAT IT'S COOL AND DANDY

FOR ONE MAN TO KISS

UPON THE NEXT MAN

LIKE IT'S NATURAL, OKAY,

'CAUSE YOU KNOW IT AIN'T.

WHAT'S NATURAL?

THIS PLASTIC CHAIR

WE'RE SITTING ON?

THE FOOD WE EAT?

SHAVING?

TAMPONS?

LASER SURGERY?

CARS?

I'VE SEEN YOU AROUND

IN YOUR TRACKSUIT.

THERE'S NOT A NATURAL FIBRE

IN SIGHT.

IT ALL HAS TO COME FROM NATURE

IN THE BEGINNING, THOUGH,

DON'T IT?

LIKE WHAT,

PLASTIC, NYLON,

IT ALL HAS TO COME

FROM SOMEWHERE:

BEFORE IT'S REFINED,

YEAH?

SO IT'S ALL

NATURAL, YEAH?

YOU THINK YOU'RE

WELL CLEVERER 'N ME, INNIT?

WELL LOOK, THIS CHI-CHI MAN,

HE WEREN'T NATURAL.

ALL RIGHT,

HIM ACT LIKE A GYAL.

AND YOU DON'T LIKE GIRLS?

NOW YOU'RE

JUST TALKING STUPID.

ALL RIGHT, YOU KNOW

WHAT I'M SAYING.

MAN IS MAN,

WOMAN IS WOMAN.

THAT'S HOW

THE SYSTEM WORKS.

I MEAN, YOU WANT YOUR MAN

TO BE A MAN, DON'T YOU?

I WANT EVERYONE:

TO BE THEMSELVES.

WELL, I'M A MAN

WHO DON'T LIKE QUEERS.

THAT'S ME.

WHAT?

YOU WANT ME TO APOLOGISE?

DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD

IT IS TO BE ME?

TO BE A MAN IN THIS WORLD,

IN THIS LIFE?

A BLACK MAN?

YOU DON'T KNOW.

YOU CAN'T KNOW.

BLACK WOMAN'S PAIN...

DON'T EVEN COMPARE,

YOU HEAR ME?

I'M NOT QUALIFIED

TO COMPARE.

WELL, I AM.

OH REALLY?

YEAH REALLY.

NUFF SPARE TIME:

IN DIS HERE PLACE, YUNNO.

I BEEN READING, RESEARCHING.

BLACK WOMEN.

FOUR TIMES MORE EMPLOYED.

FIVE TIMES MORE LIKELY

TO DO WELL IN SCHOOL.

NINE TIMES LESS LIKELY

TO END UP IN JAIL.

AND SO BLACK WOMAN

SHOULD APOLOGIZE

FOR BLACK MAN'S FAILURE

IN THE SYSTEM?

SHE SHOULD BE AWARE

OF HOW THE SHITSTEM

IS FAILING HER MAN.

SHE SHOULD GET IT.

SHE SHOULD SUPPOR HER SOLDIER.

SOLDIER?

THIS IS A WAR, WOMAN!

AND YOU WANT ME TO INDULGE

IN SOME WHITE BOY'S PRIVILEGE

TO BE SOFT?

HE WAS THERE,

ALL UP IN OUR CLUB.

UP IN OUR MUSIC,

UP IN OUR FACE,

WHAT DID HE EXPECT?

A KISS AND A CUDDLE?

OR WHAT HE GOT?

SO, THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE

BROUGHT ME HERE TO TELL ME?

THAT YOU'VE GOT NO SOFT SIDE?

YOU WHAT?

NO GENTLE SIDE,

NO GRACEFUL SIDE,

NO ELEGANCE:

YEARNING IN YOU?

WHAT THE F***

YOU TALKING 'BOUT?

ARE YOU...

JUST A WALL OF MAN

WITH NO WAY IN,

NO KEYHOLE:

OF TENDERNESS ANYWHERE?

WHAT YOU TRYING HERE,

GYAL?

YOU TRYING TO MESS

WITH A BROTHA'S MIND?

I DON'T KNOW.

IS THAT WHY I'M HERE?

A LITTLE SUMP'IN TO SHOW YOU?

[OMINOUS MUSIC]

HEY THERE MAN, YA ALL RIGHT?

WHITE BOY.

[SOBS]

WAS IT THE MUSIC?

YOU HAD ME AT HELLO.

WAS IT THE MUSIC

THAT MADE YOU DO IT?

DID YOU CHANT LYRICS

WHILE YOU:

BEAT HIS BRAINS OUT?

WAS IT CHURCH?

DID THE PREACHER INSPIRE YOU

TO DESPISE PEOPLE

WHO FALL IN LOVE

WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION?

DID YOU LEARN IT IN SCHOOL?

IN THE PLAYGROUND?

AT HOME?

WHERE DOES IT ALL

COME FROM?

THE LAWS IN JAMAICA

AND AFRICA?

BRAINWASHING YOU?

WHERE DOES THE RAGE

AT MEN LOVING MEN BEGIN?

OR DID SOMEONE JUST...

JUST COME OUT OF NOWHERE

AND CRUSH YOUR LIFE UNDERFOO WHEN YOU WEREN'T LOOKING?

SHOULD I BE:

IN THE HATE ALREADY?

SEE, I--

I ENVY YOU.

I WANT TO FEEL NOTHING

JUST LIKE YOU DO.

I WANNA... I WANNA LAUGH

ABOUT YOU BEING IN HERE

JUST LIKE YOU DO.

I WANT TO HATE.

BUT I CAN'T.

[ORLY LAUGHING]

[CONTINUES]
