[ LAUGHS ]

WHAT, WHAT, WHAT,

THAT'S FUNNY?

WHAT, 'CAUSE I'M BLACK,

I CAN'T DO HOMEWORK?

LET ME SCHOOL YOU,

ALL RIGHT?

THERE IS SOME OF US THAT

ACTUALLY DO WANT AN EDUCATION.

WORD.

OKAY, OKAY, HERE'S WHAT

WE'RE GOING TO DO.

WE'RE GOING TO MAKE

A PEACE MURAL:

ACROSS THE STREET

FROM THE SITE OF THE ACCIDENT,

AND WE WOULD LIKE YOU

TO COME HELP US PAINT IT.

AND ANY OF Y'ALL

THAT CAN STAY,

DON'T HAVE TO DO HOMEWORK,

WE'D APPRECIATE IT.

WE'LL TALK THROUGH THIS

AND WORK THIS STUFF OUT.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

BEFORE WE GO,

EVERYBODY JUST STAND UP.

COME ON, GUYS.

COME ON.

ALL OF Y'ALL,

STAND UP.

THERE YOU GO.

COME ON, T.J.,

STAND UP, MAN.

WHAT, WE GOING TO SING

"WE ARE THE WORLD"?

COME ON.

TAKE THE HAND:

OF THE MAN NEXT TO YOU.

GRAB HIS HAND.

THEY AIN'T

GOING TO BITE YOU.

Laz:
IT'S NOT THAT HARD.

COME ON, GUYS.

MAY THE LORD:

BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU.

[ SPEAKS HEBREW ]

MAY HE LIFT UP:

HIS COUNTENANCE UPON YOU

AND GRANT YOU PEACE.

[ SPEAKS HEBREW ]

AMEN.

AMEN.

THANK YOU FOR COMING.

OKAY?

ALL RIGHT.

YO, YOU DIGGING THIS?

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

I SEEN YOU SOMEWHERE.

DOUBT IT.

YOU KNOW THIS JEWISH LADY

MRS. FEINSTEIN --

SHE'S A NEIGHBOR.

SHE ASKED ME TO TURN OFF

THE STEREO:

IN HER HOUSE ONE WEEKEND.

THERE WAS THIS DUDE THERE

WHO LOOKED JUST LIKE YOU.

YEAH, WE ALL LOOK ALIKE.

YOU ALL DRESS ALIKE.

THAT'S FOR DAMN SURE.

WASN'T ME.

[ ZIPS PANTS ]

YOU KNOW WHY SHE ASKED YOU

TO TURN OFF HER STEREO?

SHE DIDN'T KNOW

WHERE THE POWER BUTTON WAS,

SO I SHOWED HER.

ON SHABBOS WE DON'T WORK

OR OPERATE EQUIPMENT,

SO SHE WOULDN'T

HAVE TOUCHED THE STEREO.

SHA-WHAT?

THAT'S THE SABBATH

TO YOU.

OH, MY BAD. I THOUGHT SHE WAS

JUST SLOW OR SOMETHING.

OH, YOU THOUGHT

SHE WAS SLOW?

YEAH.

ACTUALLY, MRS. FEINSTEIN

IS SLOW.

JUST LOOK:

AT WHAT THESE PEOPLE ARE DOING.

THEY LET THEIR CHILDREN

RUN WILD IN THE STREETS.

THERE'S NO PARENTS,

NO RESPONSIBILITY.

IT'S NO WONDER

THEY'RE KILLING PEOPLE.

THE JEW CONTROLS

THE POLITICIANS,

AND THE DEVIL:

HAS BEEN DISSEMINATING,

DEFILING, COLONIZING,

AND SUCKING THE BLOOD

OUT OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY

FOR YEARS.

[ KNOCK ON WINDOW ]

NOW, AS YOU

GO THROUGH LIFE:

WITH YOUR SISTERS

AND YOUR BROTHERS

YOU CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK

JUST BY LOOKING AT THE COVER

NO, I DON'T HEAR YOU BUSTING

THAT WHACK-ASS WHITE BOY RHYME.

WHAT UP, DOG?

MAN, YOU TELL ME.

YOU THE ONE BUYING

THIS BROTHERLY LOVE BULLSHIT.

TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG

WITH PEOPLE TRYING TO GET ALONG.

IT DON'T WORK,

JUST LIKE THAT TEEN SUMMIT SHI AIN'T GOING TO WORK EITHER.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IN THE END,

PEOPLE STICK WITH THEIR OWN.

DOG, YOU COMING?

I'M OUT, MAN.

HEY, HEY, MAN,

WATCH THAT.

OH, SORRY.

PAINTING IS NOT:

MY STRONG SUIT.

YEAH, I SEE THAT.

HEARD AL SHARPTON'S

COMING TO DO A RALLY.

I'M GOING

TO CHECK IT OUT.

WHAT? HOW CAN YOU?

HE PREACHES THE OPPOSITE

OF WHAT WE'RE TRYING

TO DO HERE.

YOU DON'T KNOW

WHAT HE REALLY PREACHES, LAZ,

AND I GOT TO KNOW

WHAT HE'S REALLY SAYING

IF I'M GOING

TO BE DEALING WITH IT.

HE DEMONIZES US.

YOU THINK THEY REALLY

BELIEVE IN THIS?

I THINK:

THEY'RE HYPOCRITES.

HEY.

HEY.

HOMEBOY CHICK.

COULD YOU NOT -- COULD YOU NOT

DO THAT AROUND ME?

OH, EXCUSE ME.

IT'S BAD ENOUGH

THAT MY DAD:

TOLD ME TO BE HERE.

I DON'T THINK YOU'RE GOING

TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO NOW.

WHY DOES YOUR FATHER

EVEN CARE?

MY FATHER HATES THEM.

APPARENTLY,

THE REBBE DOESN'T AGREE.

CAREFUL WITH THAT,

SCHMUCK.

WHAT?

HEY, WHAT'D YOU CALL ME?

HEY, YOU HEARD

WHAT I SAID.

HEY. HEY!

UNH-UNH.

CHILL OUT.

LET'S CALM DOWN.

WHY DON'T YOU ALL

CHILL OUT?

CHILL OUT.

RIGHT.

WE GOT A LOT OF TESTOSTERONE

FLYING AROUND HERE, MAN.

WE MIGHT NEED TO DO SOMETHING

MORE THAN PAINT WALLS.

HOW ABOUT:

A CONTACT SPORT?

YOU KNOW WHAT?

THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA.

I WAS KIDDING.

THEY ALL:

NOT INTO SPORTS?

WELL, WE HAVE A BASKETBALL

COURT AT THE CENTER.

YOU ANY GOOD?

YOU EVER HEARD:

OF THE REBOUNDING JEWS?

READ YOUR HISTORY.

[ HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING ]

WHAT'S UP?

DON'T WANT TO GET

YOUR SUIT DIRTY, HUH?

NOT REALLY:

INTO HARD LABOR.

YEAH, WE LEAVE THA TO YOU.

THINK YOU'RE

SO MUCH BETTER, HUH?

DON'T WANT TO BE

NOTHING LIKE US, RIGHT?

WHAT UP WITH YOUR HOMEY

OVER THERE?

HE'S A CLOSET

RAP STAR.

HA HA. YEAH, RIGHT.

I'M OUTTA HERE.

SO WHAT YOU GROOVING TO?

IT'S MY BUSINESS.

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

WHITE BOYS CAN'T RHYME.

IF THERE'S

A STORM THAT'S BREWIN'

IT WON'T

KEEP US FROM DOIN'

I'LL SING

AS WE START SLINGIN'

AND TRAVELIN'

IS BRINGIN'

YOU BUSTING THE TRIBE

LIKE THAT?

DAMN, MAN.

"A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME."

DUDE, THOSE ARE MY BOYS.

I CAN'T BELIEVE

YOU LISTEN TO THEM.

YEAH, I GOT

A BUNCH OF THEIR STUFF.

THAT'S A TRIP.

HEAVY D:

AND DIGITAL UNDERGROUND?

THEIR SH*T IS PHAT.

SLICK RICK?

Both:
DA DA-DA

DA-DA DA-DA DA-DA

SO YOU GOT:

ANY OTHER MOVES?

AAH! YEAH.

SO HOW'D YOU EVEN

GET INTO THE SOUNDS?

I JUST STARTED:

HEARING IT ON THE RADIO.

HEY.

HOW YOU KNOW:

HOW TO MOVE?

"YO! MTV RAPS."

YOU KIDDING ME, RIGHT?

YOU WATCH THAT?

RELIGIOUSLY.

RELIGIOUSLY?

WHEN I CAN.

I THOUGHT Y'ALL

WERE LIKE THE AMISH AND SH*T.

I THOUGHT Y'ALL

DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TVs.

MOST HASIDS:

DON'T HAVE TELEVISIONS,

BUT A FEW DO,

AND I MAKE IT A POINT

TO BE ON GOOD TERMS

WITH THOSE FEW.

SMART MOVE.

YOU KNOW, IN THE PAST,

THE JEWS AND THE BLACK PEOPLE,

THEY WERE NOT ENEMIES.

IF YOU LOOK:

AT AMERICAN HISTORY,

THE JEWS ARE AMONG

THE FIRST PEOPLE
