00:
33:44,220 -- 00:33:47,189- Hello. Did you get yourself something?

33:47,256 -- 00:33:49,622- Huh?
- Oh, uh, sir.
369
00:
33:49,692 -- 00:33:53,526The, uh, Amazon shipment
should be in by Friday, sir.
370
00:
33:53,596 -- 00:33:56,064I'll keep your blowgun in mind.
371
00:
33:56,132 -- 00:33:59,465You do that.
Uh, can I call ya about lunchtime?
372
00:
33:59,535 -- 00:34:01,730- Yeah.
- Good.
373
00:
34:01,804 -- 00:34:04,204- [ Stevie ] Why is she saying that?
- Why is she saying that?
374
00:
34:04,273 -- 00:34:08,903Because I'm lookin'for somethin'. That's why.
Wanna get your haircut now?
375
00:
34:08,978 -- 00:34:13,881[ Man ] You tell us that if we work
within the framework of the existing system...
376
00:
34:13,949 -- 00:34:16,509that we will get what we want.
377
00:
34:16,585 -- 00:34:18,849We work within that system,
and we get token concessions...
378
00:
34:18,921 -- 00:34:23,017to pacify us, that do nothing
for what we want.
379
00:
34:23,092 -- 00:34:27,688You are giving us tokenism.!
You are not giving us what we want.!
380
00:
34:27,763 -- 00:34:30,891- We want what we want now!
- [ Clamoring, Applause ]
381
00:
34:30,966 -- 00:34:34,367All right. Let me tell ya something.
The only way-
382
00:
34:34,437 -- 00:34:37,600The only way to get things done...
383
00:
34:37,673 -- 00:34:40,233to make them work
outside of a protest on a campus-
384
00:
34:40,309 -- 00:34:43,278which does arouse us
to what the problems are about.
385
00:
34:43,345 -- 00:34:46,007The way to get them done
386
00:
34:46,082 -- 00:34:48,778that's responsive to you.
387
00:
34:48,851 -- 00:34:52,446And I'm saying you have a responsibility
to do more than shout about what is wrong.
388
00:
34:52,521 -- 00:34:55,081That is great. You've done that.
It's happened all over the world.
389
00:
34:55,157 -- 00:34:58,126You saw how the black man
has waited...
390
00:
34:58,194 -- 00:35:02,790to go through the appropriate legislation
or wait on your existing government, as you say.
391
00:
35:02,865 -- 00:35:04,958Where would we have been?
392
00:
35:05,034 -- 00:35:07,594Didn't we have to sit in?
Didn't we have to stand in?
393
00:
35:07,670 -- 00:35:10,036Didn't we have to lay in?
Didn't we have to riot...
394
00:
35:10,106 -- 00:35:13,439till city after city
after city was burned?
395
00:
35:13,509 -- 00:35:15,602Do you know what
my stand is on Vietnam?
396
00:
35:15,678 -- 00:35:17,942Do you know what my stand is
on the draft?
397
00:
35:18,013 -- 00:35:21,244Do you know what my stand is
about the black revolution in this country?
398
00:
35:21,317 -- 00:35:24,718- All right. All right. If you know-
399
00:
35:24,787 -- 00:35:27,551- If you know what it is-
- [ Man ] Let him say what he wants.
400
00:
35:27,623 -- 00:35:30,615If you know what it is,
then you know that I do represent you...
401
00:
35:30,693 -- 00:35:34,254that my ideas of what to do up there
in that so-called " sacred hall''...
402
00:
35:34,330 -- 00:35:36,821come from you and from
your responsiveness to me...
403
00:
35:36,899 -- 00:35:39,163and my responsiveness to you.
404
00:
35:39,235 -- 00:35:41,226That's how a politician exists.
405
00:
35:47,810 -- 00:35:51,075Let me just, uh,
briedly say that, uh...
406
00:
35:51,147 -- 00:35:54,344it's been an exhilarating experience
for me being here today.
407
00:
35:54,416 -- 00:35:58,079Uh, if there were
this kind of- of energy...
408
00:
35:58,154 -- 00:36:00,987and this kind of concern-
deep concern-
409
00:
36:01,056 -- 00:36:03,456going on in the state senate...
410
00:
36:03,526 -- 00:36:06,927we would have solved a lot of the problems
of New York a long time ago.
411
00:
36:06,996 -- 00:36:10,932Let me also say that
I know that many of you are disillusioned...
412
00:
36:11,000 -- 00:36:14,527about what politicians- quote, unquote-
have made of this world.
413
00:
36:14,603 -- 00:36:19,165And you have a right to be, but you also
have a tremendous responsibility...
414
00:
36:19,241 -- 00:36:21,334to try to do something about it...
415
00:
36:21,410 -- 00:36:23,708and you have an opportunity
416
00:
36:23,779 -- 00:36:26,509You have an opportunity to define
what American politics will be...
417
00:
36:26,582 -- 00:36:28,675to define what a politician is...
418
00:
36:28,751 -- 00:36:32,881and have those politicians responsive
to you and the kind of society you want.
419
00:
36:32,955 -- 00:36:35,048And, in closing,
as I have to do...
420
00:
36:35,124 -- 00:36:37,490let me just say
that in my opinion...
421
00:
36:37,560 -- 00:36:41,496you have coined the great
motto of our time:
422
00:
36:41,564 -- 00:36:43,862" Make love, not war.''
423
00:
36:43,933 -- 00:36:48,393- Thank you.

00:
37:17,900 -- 00:37:21,996We really don't know
anything about each other, do we?
429
00:
37:22,071 -- 00:37:25,268I mean, as far as we're concerned,
we might be anybody.
430
00:
37:26,609 -- 00:37:28,702I am anybody.
431
00:
37:28,777 -- 00:37:31,837No. All I'm...

and wash up your own dishes.
434
00:
37:39,521 -- 00:37:41,955And you can't ask me to stay
until you're quite sure...
435
00:
37:42,024 -- 00:37:44,185I haven't asked
to be asked to stay.
436
00:
37:44,260 -- 00:37:48,356- Is that all you know about me?

438
00:

439
00:
37:54,370 -- 00:37:57,203Uh, that's, uh-
That's not an invitation, is it?
440
00:
37:57,273 -- 00:37:59,434That's a request for information.
