My Culture (2019) - full transcript

Baseball player.

Remember me?

We saw black

fall back. We ain't worried
about you. All facts. Go in and

see us sitting and ready. You know,

silver and black. Y'all y'all y'all

come up here looking like outside
of your bed, where Nick is good.

You'll be all around the town is hell a
wild over here. That's what y'all say.

But we be loving this all day. Every day.

It's that silver and black win or
lose what? The four super bowls.

We didn't paid our dues. And if
come to a game before we moved,



the real fans from the
tenant got nothing to prove.

We went to LA and then we came back.
Hey, everybody's still wearing that same.

Go to Las Vegas. We don't
win stacks here. Jesus.

Hey, what you're doing here? It just
broke me somewhere. Playing baseball, man.

I'm still on. I'm just going to
reserve during a little rehab.

I'll be back there. I used
to kick out hell I swear.

We got your Wiki card, man. I
appreciate that, man. Thanks for

damn.

She is gorgeous.

Gorgeous.

She is gorgeous, but I got to go
talk to her right now, right now.

Wow, man. You ain't gonna go help
your boy. Oh, come on. Oh gee.

You know what I do. I got to
finish my drink, man, man.

Ladies. Hi, my name is Angela. Do
you mind if I sit down for a minute?



Sure.

Thanks. Once again, my name Deidre and um,

I noticed she was walking
by. I lost some nuggets.

You didn't have a ring on that finger.
You got a good, so are you single?

Well, uh, thedral my
name is Beth Reese and

unfortunately, yeah.

Fortunately for me, well check this out.

I'm a baseball player and you know
what? That's not even important.

Like I couldn't help
myself. You're beautiful.

And it had to come over here cause I want
to see if I can get your numbers so we

can get to know each other better.

Let me see. Wait, so you expecting me
to give you my number? Just like that.

Cause it has you have a nice
face or cute smile or what,

what is that like a clique or I agree.
Something like that. Yeah. How do I know?

You're not like some crazy ass
killer who's looking for his neck.

Not really give off that type of
money. I don't know you not really.

I don't know. I don't,
I don't get my number.

No, I can respect that. But at the
least I can do is try it. Right.

Are you sure?

Can you give me your phone?

Hello?

Is I think I promise. So now we're going
to see if you're crazy or not though.

Maybe I'm crazy enough.

Man. I like you look since I'm here.
Can I buy you and your friends?

Some drinks?

You know what I mean? We make
paper just like you. Anyway.

I don't like to feel like I owe
somebody a conversation, you know?

Yeah, yeah. I get it. I
can respect that. Look up.

It was real nice meeting
you be interesting. Look,

I'm looking forward to
talking to you. All right.

You seriously gave him a wrong number.

What did you notice? Something? Oh,
he's black. That is what you noticed.

We already have a hard time being
Mexican. You want to stoop that low?

If you're not going to date a Latino,
can we just go find some white men?

Are you serious? So if I do outside of
my culture, I have to date a white guy,

right? Or,

or be miserable like you as there
was somebody who is in our culture,

that has nothing in common. Hello?
That's why we're here. Right?

So you didn't get away from
Hector. Hello? Whatever.

Cheers. Just want a house.

I got the good news back, man. They say
your knees ready to go, man. I'm like,

man, I could have told you that.

I'm glad we got the official word where
the bottom line is just before you got

injured, you were 40 home runs and 40
stolen basis. You are from Oakland.

Ricky Henderson was smoking. You
could be the next best thing, man.

Now the max wants you as well as the AE.
But Hey, like I said, you went to Ohio.

He went to tech and we
still had 30 games left.

She could have reached the nifty
50 Mark. I mean, I know this

is crazy. Just this timing with everything
happening right now. Now there's new.

As you're telling me, I got
something to tell you, I'm all ears.

And I met this woman almost like somebody
she's like move my soul. You tell me,

where'd you meet her at the club
at a club. You don't meet no wife.

He had no clue. Oh, that's the thing.

She looked like she didn't
belong in that club.

That's what I had to go talk to her man.

I was on the phone with this
woman for like three hours, man.

I ain't did nothing like that
since high school and man I'm up.

You're feeling like a little kid. I mean,

how many she's like you
don't matter of fact,

we was at brunch this morning just where
I met you. So what's your ethnicity?

Uh, she's a Latina Latina, huh? We're
asking me. She goes, where's she?

From my professional at the st.
Liz. You know where you went?

She's a Mustang st. Louis. Wow.

They do got some very beautiful
Latinas. Tina's mother.

She probably one of the
best ones they ever had.

Now what about your mother and your
crazy sister age dude? Ain't no man, man.

I'm putting that off. As long as I
can, especially with angel her ass.

Let me ask you this man, this
ethnicity thing. It ain't easy, man.

I bet my wife is saying a little
bit. The white, white woman,

the love of my life all the 30
years. Are you ready? Handle.

All the backlash that goes.

Cause a lot of people don't want
to see you dead outside. You ready?

You ready for that? That's not
my problem. That's their problem.

But I do know she's okay. Obviously
you feel alive for this woman,

man, to be in your wife and you
guys may end up having kids. Okay.

Is that going to hamper? You wanting
to continue to play baseball?

Because at this point in our life, like
I said, six years in the league. Okay.

You've been out for two with this injury.
You got about three good years left.

I can't have no sidetracking
right now. Okay. Like I said,

she made me in my lowest point. That's
the one you keep on your highest man.

So I got to roll with it. Bottom line
is I want what's best for you. Okay?

I appreciate you because the bottom
line is this the Mets and the A's are

looking at you. Okay?

Yeah. What's up right now.

Where are you at? I can pull up.

Just hold tight for a
second. All right. Yeah.

I'm good. I got to take care of my
cousin, man. You just stay ready, man.

Hey, I appreciate it. Yeah. I appreciate
you too, man. You can check. Stay up.

Okay.

You could see the culture, but as soon
as you arrive in Oakland, graffiti,

Gabby, where people go in and
punch in the open the home.

But the paint is the
product of the revolution.

The home of the black party's
products of the HiFi moves me.

Catch the book to the city yet the
one that's on the move to go to work,

go make some money on the corner. Playing
and soon all my hippies in Berkeley,

meditate in the broom to say just
Pittsburgh, looking like a waistband.

But gentrification in Richmond
witnessed the same cases.

Every one shot

that ain't nacho man mesh on side.

Still living, man.

I ain't never gone back, man. It's
been like what? Like eight years,

man, that shit was, I listened to.

You put a lot of firewall
between my people. Hell yeah,

we did black and Latino families.

I remember our lead counselor.

He used to teach us the
meaning of the animal word.

So we don't hear shots. I'm
just waiting on somebody

[inaudible] they got. Yeah
man. He, the man, he said,

I, you stay up, man.

You found man, how you living? I
appreciate the ride. Good shit.

Good shit. I'm just going
up the street. I met my

[inaudible]. It's a hot spot, man.
You ain't got me on a drug line, dude.

We'll put you in a situation like that
and put you on my bench. You know,

besides Romy boy, here
we go with that. Okay.

When we was on the baseball
field as little kids,

boys from the West side came to Jenna.
Exactly. Mocked him up real quick.

Of course.

That was sixth grade. Exactly.

Exactly. Shady man.

Right back.

Hi, this is a nice ride right here.
Thanks man. So what you do? Baseball.

Oh, you play pro. Okay.
So who do you play for?

A long way away from
the baseball park. Okay.

So you Shaun peoples. We actually
family. Well what did you want right now?

What's your problem? I'm chilling bro.
Bro. Why did you want my cousin ride bro?

Bro. I'm just trying to make sure he's
straight. Cause you want some cool shit,

but I ain't gonna check this n***a bro.
You lucky I'm in the West right now.

Now your shit right now. Stop
playing with me little n***a.

You know my pedigree.

It's all good. I got your backpack.

Pop that n***a keep fucking disrespect.

Don't even worry about that bitch ass
n***a. You know he ain't safe n***a.

Even the president, ain't say
n***a, you know he get his

Oakland Bree

[inaudible]

Harris. Thank you. Not like the mama.
I don't know she's using something.

Smells like something is so okay.

So what are we doing? Um,
I think that's straight.

See, can I ask you something though?
You know, you can ask me anything.

What's up.

I met somebody and I think
he's so perfect for me.

Oh my God. I need to know. What
about these ones? What does he do?

What part of Mexico is
he? From what? You know,

he's really independent.

He manages an apartment complex
and he plays major league

baseball. Well, that's a
weird combination of a job.

What's so special about
that. Not any well,

I mean, he's kind of like that in
the sense that he has a good family.

He comes from a really good family.
[inaudible] where is he from?

He's not from Mexican. Okay. He's black.

Oh mama. No, that can happen.

You don't have too much when I go to
you and you don't need this. I said,

look, I know it's different that I'm
dating a black man, but it's not,

it's not like your mother. She
wouldn't have a heart attack.

I am opposed to having one Mikado
stone. Did you need to tell me

we are supposed to stick
for that on? Okay. Alright.

What's you think the women
in his family will say,

we want you to find a method, man. Smart.

I'm successful like you to Mary.
Hi. I've dated Mexicans. Okay.

He's different. This man is different. He,

he treats me so good and he makes me
feel so special and he would never,

I know he would never, ever hurt
me. Okay. But I just don't get it.

You're too special to this family
to date outside of our lives.

We are so proud of you.
Okay. You're the smart one.

We are counting on you.
Aren't you? I don't know.

Are you going to teach
him me? Oh wow. Okay.

Do you know about your breath
and your family to do this?

I'm not doing anything to
anybody. Okay. Look, this is it.

I dated may and this man is
more than anybody that I've ever

dated before my entire
life. He treats me good.

I mean he I've never felt
like this about anybody. Okay?

Okay. Look, I think I'm in love with him.

Send me that. Okay. The black men,

they sell drugs. They smoke
marijuana. They beat their window.

They treat women. And they're always
talking about us being a stupid,

open their horse and making
jokes about us climbing wall.

You don't know what you're
getting yourself into me. Huh?

Why do you do this yourself?

Where do you get your information
on black men TV and the

movies?

All I'm hearing black man
are killing each other.

They're always in jail. The games.

And you know what they take off on the
families. Yeah. What about Mexicanos?

Right? Do they don't they do the
same thing. They're different.

And look with all due respect. The
or what about your muddy though?

Your husband? Doesn't he
lay hands on you? Huh?

That's different. How is that different?
Please explain to me how that is. This.

I don't understand how you
keep breaking up with him.

He keeps coming back and you let him
and he keeps treating you the same way.

At least my friends would
never, ever do that. He,

he treats women with the utmost respect.

At least please have an open mind.
And eventually when you meet him,

you can make your judgments that I have
no choice because I can tell by your

tongue that is special to you,
Mihai. [inaudible] do you know?

I get a little crazy. Okay.
I love man. Thank you. Okay.

We'll stop it to my mom. No,
you're the first one I told you.

I would love to be that fly on
the wall and you tell her these,

okay. What's your special
friend's name? Me? Huh?

How'd you meet him? Okay.

His name is a feeder and uh,

we met at a nightclub and

[inaudible] stricken. No, he's not
African. He just has an African name.

He was born and raised in Oakland.

His parents were born and raised
in the United States. Actually.

You know his father. I do.
Do you remember in 2003,

around that time that there was a
fire Pacifica and it burned down that

warehouse and that black fireman saved
the family and he died while he was

saving them. Oh, I do remember him.

He was a good man. He did for
those families. You know what?

He was well respected in the Bay area.

And I say more and you know
what? I remember his son.

I remember watching his son talking about
his father at the funeral, all my gun.

He was like, Doris,

is that him? Yeah. Okay. Little mama.

You go and you know why? But I am
looking forward to meeting him. Okay.

When do you plan on bringing
in? But I think very soon,

You're the mimic yellow,
even though you're crazy.

[Inaudible]

you ain't never seen a
bed. She won't even get

what you're doing.

Oh, I'm writing the speech. Um,
you know, my old school USF.

They asked me to come
back and talk about my,

my career and they're going to give me
a mentee and I'm going to be a mentor.

So I'm just, yeah. I'm just
writing to honor. Yeah.

It's nice to give back, you know, that's
what's up anyway. How was your, um,

work out with your agent? Oh man. Cool.
Look, I'm gonna tell you something.

It's so cool to have an agent.
That was an athlete too. I mean,

I do really understand what I'm going
through and he has some for me too.

I mean, my knee is getting better.
Uh, I think it's time for my comeback.

That's nice. How do you think of back?

I'm gonna watch this movie
or something or? Well,

no I'm gonna tonight is
movie night. So I mean,

I want to interrupt you. No, no, no.
I tonight's our movie night anyway,

what do you want to watch? Oh, it's
comedy. I want to laugh. Are you serious?

Why you say, because I thought you
would want to watch something serious.

I mean, I'm serious. I like to laugh
some time too, but you always thinking,

yeah, I like that about you.
Thank you. Can I ask you something

if you had to change? Well,

what is like one thing
you would do could, okay.

You got me up here thinking, um,
well you'd like to think, right?

You know what, honestly, if
I could eradicate the word,

the word n***a. Yeah. I mean, I get it.

It's slang as part of the
culture and all that. I mean,

seeing people that's not even
black calling each other n****r,

but if they understood like the
history of it and how it was used to

present the human brain,

it's just so much violence and
death associated with that word.

That's what I want them to do.
You're right. I mean, honestly,

people don't understand the power of
our words. Like we throw around words.

Sometimes we don't even think about
where they're coming from. You know,

like what we name
ourselves, call each other.

Where's a powerful and we just, we
don't think about it. You're right.

We need to think about what, where the
words came from. Like, even for me,

like one of the things I hate is like
the use of word, Hispanic or Latino.

Like it's one word that we
didn't even name ourselves.

It's like somebody like the
census named us. And like we use,

they use that word a group of bunch
of people together in a way that only

highlights the European
identity and erased the black
and Brown identity people.

So it's like, yeah. So it's
I know it's hard. I know.

So, I mean, I get you, I mean, it's
not comparison comparing to the N word.

That word is not even mine. Like
that word, that word. I mean,

I grew up with it too. Like people
calling each other that, you know,

part is the casual
environment, but you know what?

That word was not used to oppress me
in the way it was used to oppress black

people. So I don't own that word anyway.

But what was your first
experience? No, honestly,

I think I was like about 10 years old.

Me and my dad's watching this movie and
they was just throwing that word around

like left and right. I mean,
it was like n***a, this n***a,

that n***a n***a made him. And I was
like, no, I heard the word before,

but I never really knew what it meant
that, what does that word mean? You know,

Sophie, it told me a story
that his dad told him,

I guess he had grew up in a racist town
and black man had did something and

got hung. And when they cut him down,

the word n***a was like
scratching his forehead.

And at that moment I realized
how serious that word was and

just the violence attached
to it. And after that,

I just made a deal with
myself. Never use that word,

condone other people using
it either. So I hear you.

I agree with you, but look,

you got me getting off deep up and
we're supposed to be watching a comedy.

You know what I'm saying? What
movie we were watching. I know,

but you need to take a first. I'm going.

To take a shower too. You can
use the one down the hall. Okay.

I'm going to use that one in my room. Oh

God. That was horrible.

But you know what I really liked about
this system that they featured all the

female pilots.

That was like I said,
they worked that in there.

Well, that reminds me of you.

She is, she was the first female,
Puerto Rican, U S military pilot.

And she was one of the first women of
color commercial pilots in the entire

world. See like me and my family,

we kind of like all secretly
wanting to be pilots.

Like we're obsessed with flying.

So I grew up like really looking
up to Olga and what she did.

You're smart.

Thank you. You're smart.

I like spending time with you.

I like spending time with you to

send me someone like you

was my key to follow.

Hey, I've got one for you. Alright.

One days as a thousand years and
the thousand years as one day,

your day begins when you boom.

And your date ends when
you die. So I say to you,

enjoy your day. He on her. So do
what you love and love what you do.

But most of all, make sure you stay
true. Now, how you like that one?

to the met so that's cool. Shit. Hey,

can I get your autograph man? What's
your dream for him too? I'll give a damn.

If you play baseball or not just
don't hurt my sister. All right.

I got you. Gotcha. We're good.

Nice to meet you gentlemen.
Hey, Brown brothers,

right? Brown brothers.

It was cool. Yeah, it was pretty
cool. Just shut up. Your sister.

She, you a little black
boyfriend and Beatrice.

I told her she shouldn't be
dating him. She knows better.

How are you going to disown your
own people? I mean, come on.

She can't be taking him serious.

I need you to go and do your little
gang thing. Scare him up a little.

Because you really don't
like black people. Huh?

Where's all this hatred coming from.

Well look, I just don't want
to be associated with them.

You know that saying the Apple
doesn't fall too far from the tree.

They stick to theirs. We stick to ours.

Uh, you need some serious help.

Cause that's the one I am trying to cross
unless he crossed the first by hurting

my sister. Otherwise I
can really give a damn.

Wow. And you claim to rep your Baria

macho, your Mexican
pride. It's embarrassing.

Cousin, no disrespect, but got on
my face with that bullshit. Huh?

Hey, I can't help you though.
She don't watch you pretty much.

Listen.

Both of my parents came here legally and
they work damn hard for everything they

have. So how about you stop
playing the victim's car,

blame everybody and stop getting free
stuff from the government and get up on

your ass and work. You know,

honestly, I'm pretty for it.
The diversity, you know, I mean,

as a man, sometimes I
get tired of hearing.

We have Alita talk about her Weblo and
then eating the same tacos every day and

then hearing Bhandare like, I get
really tired of that. Sometimes.

Like my hands shaking,

I just need some fried chicken
and some Kanye Western times,

that's all I'm saying seriously.
You know, I don't discriminate.

If she Ella bad, she held the
bat. That's all I got to say.

I'm getting sick and tired of black
people, always playing the race card,

not getting nominated for the
Oscars really well. You know what?

I would like to see a Latino
cast in a lead role for once

over it.

You know? Uh, I'm an old
school kind of dude, you know,

like I can appreciate like a fine new
being princess, but I think we've got.

To kind of do our own thing. You know,

like we're two different warrior
tribes and I got to stick to my tribe.

Black people got to stick to
that tribe. You know what I mean?

At the end of the day though, booty
is the language of the universe.

Filming.

How you doing? I'm good, man.

I can tell you a family
really loves her song.

[inaudible]

you need to talk that feature about
bringing some Mexican girlfriend to my

party.

You know, going to be there.
And she loves her son with Joel.

I just don't want him to bring her look.

I know it's your party and all
your friends are going to be there,

but your brother wants us
to meet this young lady.

Now I'm not okay with his choice of
color either, but he's his own man.

And he's an excellent son. This is a
great opportunity for us to meet him.

Why always take your side every
time I'd be done. I have a problem.

It just seems like every time he and I
have an issue, you just take his side.

It's not fair sides. I don't take sides.

I make decisions. Now whether
you date in an alien or not,

I will support you so long as
you respect my rules in my house.

I will support you until you die.
Look since your father passed,

it's been hard. I'm trying to do what's
best based on what he would have done.

I just don't think you guys
see my point of view on issues.

It's my party and I don't want him to
bring her. I'm just not going to go.

I just don't want no one at my party.
They ain't black. Wait, are you a racist?

Cause that's what I'm
getting right now. No,

I'm tired of seeing attractive
black men dating outside their race.

That is sounds personal.

Your brother's girlfriend is
welcome in my house period.

[inaudible].

We got to

let us come together.

Sometimes we argue

too much,

too much hate in it.

[inaudible] so where's your
girlfriend, honey. She covered,

she just had to take her mom to
the doctor for a little checkup.

She didn't drop out.

Okay. Well I'm excited to meet her. Oh,
she here. Hold on. I gotta let her know.

Okay.

I don't agree with it. I
don't agree with it at all.

Our black men and women need
to stick with each other.

Any other kind wouldn't
understand our struggle.

They don't know where we're
going or where we came from.

How are you feeling? Good.
How's your mom. Good.

Now I know how you felt
when you met my family.

Like they all waiting to
meet you. You ready? Okay.

Yes. Come on. Okay.

You want me put that on?

Hi. Oh my gosh. I finally get to meet
you. I've heard so many things about you,

so many good things. You
are beautiful. Thank you.

It's such a pleasure to meet you mrs.

Thompson and your son is
so good to me. That's good.

You're from Oakland raised in
Oakland. Okay. Whereabouts?

I grew up in the 35th Avenue area.

My house was directly across
the street from st. Louis,

right down the street from Brown
brothers. But one like right over it.

Right next to the elementary. I
know where exactly where that is.

Would you like anything to eat?
Cause I'm, as you've been seeing,

we have plenty. I got you. I'm going
to get a plate. I'll take a plate now.

You know what she wants mom.
That's my girl. I know she wants,

I have to agree with him mrs. Thompson.

We're pretty on point with
reading each other. Hey yeah. Hey.

Hello angel. You must be Beatrice.
Yeah. Pleasure meet you so.

Nice to meet you. Happy
birthday. Oh, okay.

So I want to introduce
you to my friends. Okay.

Let me from the bottom of

the chair. Everyone

got to move me from the bottom up. Hi.

I'm Amina. And I've been in love
with the thedral for like ever,

and I'm not prejudice,

but all I'm saying is of course
I don't agree with interracial

relationships. I mean, I would be
happier with him on my arm, honestly.

You know? So no, I
don't support it. Sorry.

So how did you my brother
meet? Oh, um, it was at a club.

Really? Yes. You just.

Oh. Seem like someone who goes to a
club. What does that mean? No disrespect.

You just seem a little squares.

Okay. This is not good. I'm not liking
the way this conversation is going.

Look,

I think my brothers should be somebody
with his own color and not some Mexican.

Mike, does your family even speak English?

I think going to get kicked out once
the president does that wall. Really?

Really? Wow.

Well, you know what? Before your brother
and I became a couple, he was single.

Okay. So if somebody of his color
didn't get him, that's their problem.

That's not my problem.
And also, you know what,

if you're going to check somebody, check
your brother. Don't check me. Okay.

Because he's the one who approached
me. I didn't approach him.

And about my family, don't even
worry about my family. All right.

Because my family has been in Oakland
way before you were even born.

Don't grab me. Okay. Not even family yet.

Okay. Beatrice. My bad. I apologize.

He must've been the
alcohol, but I am truly,

truly sorry. Everything I said was foul.

I actually think you're a
good fit for my brother.

There is one critical thing you
need to know about him though.

His farts are dead.

We'll let you know.
Okay. I know it's gross.

It's gross.

But I gotta let you know,
woman, a woman. Okay? We

thank you for that
information. Looking into that.

I apologize, but enjoy my
party. Thank you for telling me.

Yeah, n***a. It's dark.

You know what I'm saying?
Blah. I was like, man,

I want to give them a windows
15 match. I let a little n***a,

but it's his mama. I get at her and say,
what happened? Was you in a dark room?

Some dark stuff.

I mean, he's making man
nowadays. That's what it gets.

You are gorgeous. I mean single
NTS. Wow. He ain't serious.

Serious. Stop playing. Find
your business. Darkness.

You Spanish women are calling into

sign your business darkness,
man. Your fitness man. I'm sorry.

Sorry about that, Beatrice. You
know, he's so disrespectful.

I mean man, because brother,
the N word is where it's at.

We take it. We take negatives man,

and turn them into positive scene
brothers today. That's what we do, man.

We take, we take the N word and turn it
into a positive man. Keep Latino Asians,

white kids. You know what I'm saying?

I say my kids do because in the
privacy of their homes, man, you know,

they whispered it real loud.
You know what I'm saying?

Everybody wants to be a n***a, man.
That n***a is what it is to be.

Look, I love my brother
and I want him to be happy.

But why he got to do
with some Mexican girl?

There's so many beautiful
black girls from light to dark.

He can pick any one of them.
At least she ain't white. Look.

I'm a little bitter. Sure. Okay.

It's hard for me to find
a good strong black man.

When they being taken by
every other color I'm done.

Good. Yeah. Wow. That's amazing.

Oh shit. That's so train line.
Okay. We gotta dance. Come home.

Alright. Um, go ahead.
I'm gonna be right there.

bit, man. I just got so my,

my mind slow stress. Sorry.

but I'm gonna get a buddy or cousin my
time of year with you a little later,

man. Hey you call me if you need me,

come get it so good. I love you boy.

[inaudible] my name is Zaria and no I
don't approve of interracial dating.

My father cheated on my mother with a
woman of another race. And at Daniel,

I always see him with beautiful black
women. Why Mexican girl? This time?

I just don't approve. Look.

I would like to think we're
smart, intelligent people,

much smarter than animals.

I done had them from damn near light
to dark as night. A horse, a dog,

a camel can make with someone of
a different color. Why can't we,

if it wasn't able to happen, we wouldn't
be able to reproduce. That's my story.

And I'm sticking to it.

Cause you see right there. That was fun.

Oh yeah. It was fine.
Your family's interesting.

Interesting.

Well, I mean you could tell that
everybody really cares for me. Oh yeah,

over? What are you talking about?

Your sister told me about you
passing out. She was so serious.

A little bit curious, actually. Hell
no, I will never do that for any,

no action. I was waiting
til we got married.

I mean flip it that way. You
already be trapped. I mean,

possibly I was gonna do some
class here, but uh, you know,

why didn't you be trapped and
then, uh, you ain't going nowhere.

That's why there's this something called
divorce too. So, Oh hell, come on,

get on with that. I'm just
kidding. Nobody's perfect.

Nobody's perfect.

Did your uncle Oh yeah. Yeah.

Is it bother you that you use? Oh

gender, they're dating each other.
I mean, I don't see the problem.

I don't know what the big deal is. Okay.

We are [inaudible] okay. We
are immigrants from Mexico.

Don't you think that if we keep
on dating outside of our race,

that eventually our culture will be washed
away gun. Is that what you want? No,

that's true. But if that were the case,

we'd all move back to Mexico where all
the Mexican people are and we wouldn't

have this problem. But
as long as we live here,
