Aww.
What is history?
Opposites.
You can read the board.
I'm so happy to hear that.
No, what is it?
What does it mean? Stace?
Ohange?
Thank you, Stacey.
I'm glad to hear someone's paying attention.
History is the study Of change over time.
and what's change?
It's this. It's opposites.
It's two things that push against each other in opposite directions.
So the civil rights movement, okay, it's essentially,
It's two opposing mentalities.
In the south, the majority believes
All men are not created equal, and there's a minority
Who believes that they are, so that minority struggles
and it fights and it pushes till eventually
It becomes the majority.
Am I boring you? Huh?
Let's give you some examples, okay, of opposing forces,
Like I'm going to go night and day.
What else?
Big and little.
Good. Anything else?
Left and right.
You and I.
Teacher, student. Anything else?
Yeah.
Just wondering if you could count me and Gina's baldheaded sister as opposites.
Oh, insult.
Gina come on, tell me you're not going to take that?
You got a bald sister? Is your sister bald?
Give me something.
May 17, 1954.
Oh.
and I expect some thought from you.
I don't want just dates and facts.
I want to know why. I want to know consequences.
I want to know what it means. All right.
Now, back to the bald sister.
What's going on with that?
Right.

You didn't go to the hospital?
No.
Did your father pick you up from practice last night, Drey?
No.
Fucking shit. How did you get home?
Ooach.
I'm tired of this. Something has got to change.
I don't know what.
You don't got to worry about me.
Oh, look at you, Miss 12.
Thirteen, I'm 13 now.
Oh, so you grown, huh?
Going to take care of yourself, Is that it?
Pretty much.
Well, that's a relief.
I guess I ain't got to cook up these burgers then, huh?
Hey, Mom, you know this dude Oesar Ohavez on Spanish Six?
Oesar who?
Oesar Ohavez. He once fasted for 35 days.
That means he didn't eat For 35 days,
Mm-hmm.
Think you could do that?
Hi, honey, it's Mom.
Hello? Hi, um, is Rachel there?
Well, I feel good today.
Anyone else feel good? Hmm?
I need a volunteer, and I need somebody who feels strong.
So what we've got here Is two opposing forces,
Terrence and myself, and we're pushing against each other.
and as long as one is stronger- and it looks like it's t-
The change is slow and consistent.
But once the other side becomes stronger,
There's a turning point.
Thank you, T. Make sense?
Okay.
Now, turning points can happen like that.
They can be physical, or they can happen on a greater scale,
Like a war or something.
So why don't you do me a favor and write
Three examples Of historical turning points
That we've talked about in class, okay?
What's up?
Have you even opened the Oivil Rights binder I gave you?
The Oivil Rights binder I have opened,
and it's got some great stuff in it.
I think it's great. Yeah.
I'm just providing a little general content-
I need you on the civil rights Section by next week.
Nice seeing you.
Is that gum in your mouth?
He was a Gemini. He was so cocky.
Every day I saw him he used to go like, oh, you happy you got me.
You happy you got me, and I be like,
Please you the one that's got me, so y'all like Geminis?
Oh, what's his name?
Mr. Easton and Mrs. Wright In the movie theater.
I'm pretty sure they're married. No.
I don't, they can't.
You don't know what you're talking about, so don't talk.
No, but they look weird together.
Y'all think Mr. Dunn is married?
Would you want to marry him?
Oome in the room, swirling his finger around,
Telling us to move the desk.
Why can't he move the desk?
I'm getting tired of that every morning.
Don't forget about his glasses.
and he- - bifocals.
- he start Throwing them around, throwing the chalk
Like he all cool and fly and everything, but-
Ridley?
Quiet.
Would you marry your father? Oh.
"a man who was curious to know If a knife could penetrate
"his bulletproof vest Was killed yesterday
"by a stab wound to the chest.
"witnesses say the man, Jeff Turner, 32,
"urged his brother, Scott Turner, 35, to stab him
"as hard as he could, believing The vest would stop the knife.
It didn't. "
So how's Your opposite somethings?
Pretty good.
Where'd you come up with that stuff?
It's just a little something I picked up in college.
A little thick for the eighth grade, no?
Yeah, yeah, well, you'd think, but I don't know.
I think they're getting it.
You know, Drey is so textbook.
How's your book?
Don't ask.
There's always the summer.
Do you want to go?
You want to have dinner with me again?
Okay. Mm-hmm?
Did you guys hear that they found
A crack vial in the locker room?
Jesus.
Hmm.
Whose it is? Oh, I don't know.
Hey, you know what? That's a good idea.
We can put it in the lost and found to see if anybody claims it.
Better yet, why don't we put up flyers with a picture?
What's new?
I don't know.
I can't hear you. Oome over here.
That's a nice cap.
Thanks. It's Mike's.
Yeah, I know. Talk to him lately?
He writes sometimes.
How's he doing in there?
All right, I guess.
Well, if he needs something, Let me know, all right?
I mean, I know people in there.
Okay.
Okay?
Yeah.
All right then.
What, you thirsty, huh? You want something to drink?
My bike.
Ain't nobody going to fuck with that bike.
Yo Harvey, this is Drey. Hey, Tina?
You remember Mike's little sister, Drey, right?
Oh, hey, sweetie.
Oome and sit down. Let me get thatjuice for you.
Help yourself. Oome on and sit.
I'll be right back.
Yo, pick a hand.
Ha, you lose.
Oome on. What's up with thatjuice?
I'm not thirsty.
Well, don't be a stranger, kid.
You could stop through and say hello.
Yeah.
You saw Frank today?
Just ran into him.
On September 13, 1971, 1200 Attica state prison inmates
Seized control of the prison and took hostages
To negotiate changes to their inhumane conditions.
Governor Nelson Rockefeller ordered a military assault
On the prison which killed 29 inmates and 10 hostages,
Every one caused from police gunshots.
An official commission later Stated, with the exception
Of indian massacres In the late 19th century,
The police assault was the bloodiest one-day encounter
Between Americans Since the civil war.
Unbelievable. What are you doing?
Go sit in the desk. Ten points off.
Second chances are rare, man.
You ought to take better advantage of them.
Don't let go. Grab the t-shirt if you need to.
You know, a little elbow here and there never killed anybody,
You know what I mean?
As long as the ref isn't looking.
Not in my house.
It's a nice surprise. Where's Mom?
Working.
Darrel's uncle came to visit so I came along with him.
How's Darrel's leg?
It's all right.
It's nice to see you.
Those for me?
Frank's for sending me some of them nasty peppermints
He always eating.
What is that?
I threw them shits out.
So how's the team?
We suck.
and Ma, still working too hard?
Yeah.
But she all right for money though.
Frank still looking out?
Good.
He owes us.
So how come you never told on him?
For what?
Would've made shit more complicated.
and shit was already fucked up as it is, you know?
That's all in the past, though.
I'm going to get out of here. You'll see.
I mean, you got Russell Simmons On the case.
Russell Simmons?
Look, we'll be all right.
I have to write an essay about growing up.
I'm going to fail the course.
Well, that's your problem, Oharles.
My problem is making sure that you keep an eye on things
While I'm gone.
Actually that's also your problem.
You've got a lot Of problems, Oharles.
Don't let them get in the way of your work.
There's a time when the operation of the machine
Becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart
That you can't take part.
You can't even passively take part, and you've got
To put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels,
Upon the levers, upon all the apparatus
and you've got to make it stop, and you've got to indicate
to the people who run it, to the people who own it
that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented
from working at all.
What is this machine that he's talking about?
It's keeping us down. What is it?
Like robots and stuff, right?
It could be robots.
It could be robots, but let's say it's a metaphor.
He's saying this machine is keeping me down.
Now, what is that? What keeps us from being free?
Ms. Drey?
Prisons.
Absolutely, absolutely. Prisons, okay?
Prisons are definitely a part of it.
White.
The man.
The school, exactly.
The whole education system is part of the machine.
What else?
Aren't you the machine then?
Oh, no, you didn't. What'd you say?
Aren't you the machine?
You're saying I'm the machine?
Yeah, you're white. You're part of the school.
Oh, yeah, I guess you got a point.
All right, so I'm part of the machine,
But if I'm part of it so are you.
You are, too. we all are.
Everything is made with opposing force.
We may be opposed to the machine,
But we're still very much a part of it, right?
I work for the government, the school, but I'm also
very much opposed to a lot of its policies.
Yes.
Sometimes, exactly.
Where you headed?
You look like you're in a rush. Hungry?
I'm starving.
Oome on. Burger's on me.
So how's school?
It's hard.
I got a game tomorrow.
Word.
Want to come?
Working.
Pops?
Fuck it. I'll come through.
Somebody got to represent.
Tina packed some sweets For Mike last night.
Your brother was a good friend, still is.
That dude was funny.
I mean, he ever showed you the chicken walk?
The what?
I mean, I can't do it, But it's like-
- shit was bananas.
You know, we used to work together, right?
You ever think about working?
Shit. I used to work here.
For real?
$150 a week. Hey, Keesha?
What's up, hon?
We need two milkshakes, baby.
I know I don't sound sincere, but I mean it.
Thank you.
I think I-
Why can't I say that sincerely?
Oh, you can. I went back to school.
Mm-hmm.
Environmental Policy.
No, I know, but I think you're really going to be great.
I believed you the first time.
I'm just nervous that's all.
How are you?
I don't know.
You still rocking out?
When the occasion calls.
Yeah.
Who's the lucky guy?
I met him in the program.
I don't know, Dan.
Some people change. Some people actually change.
I know.
No way. I'm still an asshole.
You're not an asshole. You're just a big baby.
I'm a big asshole baby.
Let's go, rebels.
Pass it in.
All right, there you go.
Blue ball.
What is that? You're killing us.
You need to watch yourself. Another bad call, hear?
Blue ball.
Walk it off, baby, Walk it off. Oome on, shake it off.
Hustle back.
That was a bad call, man.
You okay?
Yeah.
You want a ride home tonight after the game?
All right.
Foul, foul, call the foul.
Ooach, go back to your bench.
Go back to your bench.
Oall the foul. Oall it.
Oall the foul.
This is fucking bullshit and you know it.
You're gone, coach.
I won't tolerate that language on my court.
Oh, it's the language you don't tolerate,
Fucking language, excuse me.
I didn't know it was the language.
All right. Good luck, girls.
I think your hand is changing colors get more ice on it.
You should've seen the wall.
I'm telling you, Dunn, you should've knocked that nigga out.
You can't go around knocking people out, you know,
Or throwing balls at them just because you're upset.
It would've felt good, though, right,
Felt good to just get it out.
There's other ways of getting it out.
Right. Like you do?
Look, just because you know that one thing about me,
One thing doesn't make a man.
What?
One thing doesn't make a man?
You know I was just talking about your hand right?
Yeah.
Yeah, I knew that.
Hey, who was that guy that was cheering for you?
Do you know him?
Not really. Do you?
No.
So we can just keep the whole punching the wall thing
A secret, right?
You don't have to tell anybody, right?
What's up, Santa Olaus? Where you going?
I had a good day.
Even after the dolphin report, right?
Even after it says there are no weapons.
There are no WMD programs. There is nothing.
They do that, The Pippa study,
That University Of Maryland thing,
and turns out 72 percent Of his supporters
Still believe there's WMDs.
Seventy-five percent still believe they're supporting
Al Qaeda and so what the fuck do we do you know?
What do you do?
What does one, I'm one man, what I do, you know?
I used to be so fucked up.
I used to be so fucked up I was just out there, you know,
But I fucking cleaned up.
I cleaned up-
For the most part.
I do it now to get by, but I can handle it.
You know what I mean?
I tried the rehab thing. I tried it.
It didn't work. It didn't work.
You know, it works for some people.
My ex-girlfriend is getting married.
So it works for some people, right?
It didn't work for me.
The kids keep me focused, and I-
Number three: Ohange moves in spirals, not circles.
For example, the sun goes up and then it comes down,
But every time that happens what do you get?
You get a new day. You get a new one.
When you breathe, you inhale and then you exhale,
But every single time that you do that
You're a little bit different than the one before.
We're always changing, and it's important to know
That there are some changes you can't control
But that there are others you can.

That's true.
Oh.

You mash them up with your hands.
Get in there and squeeze them.
See, what you need is some jokes. Women love jokes.
Okay. You got any?

Nacho cheese.
Absolutely not.

Oan I ask you something?
Mm-hmm.

Sorry.
No, don't be. It's all right.
Mash them up.
Hope you have a nice date, Mr. Dunn.
Hey, thanks for the joke.
So my buddy gets in the car and the cab driver's like,
I'm so sorry I'm late, sir.
I had to kill somebody On the way here, you know.
and he's like, what?
He's like, oh, yeah I kill him, I kill him.
and he's like, what do you, You, you killed him?
I'm killing people, you know, anybody
Who really kind of mouth off to me, I fucking kill them, man.
Turns out he thinks "kill" is the word for "punch," right?
My friend thinks that he's killing them.
He's terrified and he thinks that the word for "cement" is "semen. "
So he's like well, basically
stepping on semen.
There's semen everywhere. There's semen buildings.
It's lot of people, you know, so everything is made of semen, you know.
I didn't say every day. You're her father.
Today she got locked out the house.
Are you a communist?
What?
"Ohe in Africa"?
So?
"The Oommunist Manifesto?"
If I had a copy of "Mein Kampf" Would that make me a Nazi?
You know, this is really good, very tasty.
You should try it warm.
Well, you don't have a copy of of "Mein Kampf"
But if you did, then yes, I'd ask you if you were a Nazi.
Maybe I'm hiding it.
Why would you hide it?
'Oause it's just not cool To be a Nazi anymore, baby.
So what are you doing today?
Oh, I got to-
It's great you're writing.
Yeah, we'll see.
I should let you get to it then.
Yeah, thanks though. I had a good time.
Yeah, me too.
On November 1, 1977, Harvey Milk was elected
To the San Francisco Oity Oouncil.
He was the first Openly gay person
To ever be elected To public office.
A year later he was assassinated by another member
Of the Oity Oouncil Oalled Dan White.
- reports that Harvey Milk have been shot and killed.
Dan White claimed he shot Milk because he ate
too much junk food that day.
This would later be known As the twinkie defense.
Is that for real?
Drey, Drey, come here. Where are you going?
Home.
I'll give you a ride home.
That's cool. I got a ride.
I don't really think you should be riding with him, do you think?

She's in her first semester At Georgetown, history major.
Paula Dixon.
You have a good night.
Dave?
In asia the idea that things are made of opposites,
Ying and Yang, dates back 3,000 years.
That was them saying change is the only constant,
But thatjust died in the west.
Itjust couldn't be both, couldn't be black and white.
It would be right and wrong. It had to be one or the other.
Who am I to say that aristotle is wrong, right,
but that doesn't make any sense.
These things need each other.
The idea that all God's creations are "perfect"-
So just to suggest that a tree, it's crooked and it's straight,
It's strong and it's weak, is to suggest
That god created something imperfect.
They do however acknowledge it in people.
We are sinners, but we can strive to be good,
Just not in nature itself, I guess.
Oh, i've got to go.
You guys write down what's on the board.
"Broward Oounty Florida Middle schools mistakenly
"failed over 6500 students In June due to what
"later called a computer error.
"a school official called the total count of students affected
An insignificant sum. "
What goes, Danny boy? How's history?
I can't do it anymore.
Oh, I know the feeling.
Hang in there. Things will get better.
And if not, There's always summer.
Don't you have class right now?

You always see me on this bike.

You hella sorry, nigger. I should fuck you up.
Get off my bike.
I thought you Was going fuck him up?
Didn't have to.
Oh, shit, okay, you didn't have to.
Hey.
It's back.
Yeah.
Did you know my brother?
I knew of him, but I didn't, you know.
He wasn't in any of my classes or anything.
You think I could end up like him?
Do you?
He's got a 7-Up in his Mother fucking-.
Hey, what's up, teach? how's the Dianetics going?
It's Dialectics. Oan I talk to you?
