ONCE A MAIDEN WOULD'VE AWARDED
HER KNIGHT HER FAVOUR TO WEAR.

WEAR IT WITH PRIDE.
YOU KNOW IT WASN' YOUR FAULT, DON'T YOU?
THAT YOUR PEOPLE
DON'T APPRECIATE YOU.
IT MUST BE EVEN MORE
DISAPPOINTING FOR YOU,
WHEN IT COMES
FROM YOUR OWN, LIKE THAT.
AS OPPOSED TO WHEN
IT COMES FROM YOUR OWN?
[CHUCKLES]
WELL,
YOU COME TO EXPECT IT FROM
THE WHITE-TRASH ELEMENT.
BUT NEVER FROM THE NICE
MIDDLE-CLASS WHITE BOYS.
I MEAN, THEY JUST LOVE
THE QUEERS, DON'T THEY?
TRUST ME, I'M UNDER NO ILLUSIONS
REGARDING THE MIDDLE-CLASSES.
BUT THEY DON'T GO QUEER-BASHING
ON THE STREETS.
NO, THEY GO QUEER-BASHING
IN THE PRESS
AND THE HOUSE OF LORDS.
AND AS FOR THE BLACKS,
SURELY THEY SHOULD
UNDERSTAND OPPRESSION,
SHOULDN'T THEY?
AFTER ALL
THEY'VE BEEN

WELL, SHOULDN'T THEY?
AFTER ALL,
WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME SIDE,
AREN'T WE?

A LYNCH MOB.
IT DOESN'T LOOK BROKEN.
I'M SORRY!
[DOOR CLOSES]
IT'S NOT YOU, IT'S ME
TRUTH IS--
I'M A BI OF A THEORETICAL QUEER.

GIMME A TWIX, YEAH?
PLEASE?
HE WAS WHITE.

MY MOTHER
WAS THE BLACK ONE.
HE WORKED IN A TANNERY
SKINNING SHEEP.
HE WASN'T A NIGGA,
NOR WAS SHE,
AND NOR AM I.
'WAS?'
WHEN THEY WERE ALIVE.
MAYBE WE SHOULD SPLIT UP.

RUDE BOY.
ORLY.
I'VE BLOWN A MONTH'S BUDGE ON DRESSING LIKE BEENIE MAN,
AND I'M MINCING
OUT OF THE HOUSE
LOOKING LIKE
QUEENIE MAN.
I'M A LIABILITY.
YOU'RE NOT A LIABILITY.
THEN...
WHY'VE YOU NEVER
BROUGHT ME ALONG BEFORE?
'CAUSE EVERYONE
ON THE URBAN SCENE
HATES BOTTYBOYS
AND CHA-CHA MEN.
BATTYBOYS
AND CHI-CHI MEN.
IT'S JUST MUSIC, ORLY.
ONCE THEY GET TO KNOW YOU,
THEY'LL LOVE YOU
JUST AS MUCH AS I DO.
[PHONE RINGING]
BLOODY HELL, ORLY,
IT'S THREE IN THE MORNING.
HEY, UM, UM--
HELLO?
HELLO?
I'M SORRY,
SORRY TO BOTHER YOU,

UH, YEAH, I'M SORRY.

HELLO?
[DOOR OPENS]
MISTER...
WOLFAVITZ?
DANIEL PEARL.
I'VE BEEN ASSIGNED BY LEGAL AID
TO DEFEND YOUR CASE.
YOU'RE FIRED.
WELL, THAT WAS
NICE AND QUICK.
TELL 'EM I WANT A BRUTHA
ON MY CASE, ALL RIGHT?
AND MAKE HIM STRAIGH WHILE YOU'RE AT IT.
AH.
WHAT?
WHAT?
THAT MAY PROVE IRKSOME.
I'M AFRAID THERE'S ONLY ONE
HETEROSEXUAL BLACK MAN
ON LEGAL AID
IN THIS CATCHMENT AREA,
AND HE'S SNOWED UNDER WITH CASES
FOR A LEAST A YEAR.
THERE ARE
A COUPLE OF BLACK WOMEN.
I THINK ONE OF THEM MIGHT BE
STRAIGHT OR AT LEAST...
BISEXUAL.
WOULD YOU LIKE ME
TO MAKE ENQUIRIES?
SO WHY AIN'T YOU
BOOKED UP?
YOU THE DREGS OR WHAT?
I AM THAT RARE BREED--
THE BRIGHT-EYED,
BUSHY-TAILED IDEALIS BURDENED WITH ENOUGH
WHITE LIBERAL GUIL TO PRESENT YOUR CASE
WITH THE UTMOST COMMITMEN TO THE RULE OF LAW WITHOU PERSONAL PREJUDICE.
[HISSES]
HOWEVER, AS YOU
SEEM SO SURE
THAT A HETEROSEXUAL
BLACK SOLICITOR
WILL BE MORE SYMPATHETIC
TO YOUR POSITION,
I HUMBLY BOW TO YOUR
DECISION, GOOD DAY.
[VENOM]
HE CALLED US NIGGERS.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
HE THOUGH WE WAS DRUG DEALERS.
AND WHEN WE SAID WE'RE WEREN'T,
HE CALLED US
THE N-WORD.
AND WE OVERREACTED.
I'M USUALLY A PEACEFUL MAN,
YOUR HONOR,
I SWEAR ON MY BIBLE,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME.
BUT I KNOW THIS, MA'AM.
I'M REALLY, REALLY...
SORRY.
[DANIEL]
IMAGINE YOU ARE ONE OF THESE
FOUR HARD-WORKING,
FOCUSED YOUNG MEN,
AT THE STAR OF YOUR DREAM CAREER,
A CAREER THAT WILL
TAKE YOU AWAY
FROM YOUR HUMBLE BEGINNINGS,
AND TO A WORLD OF INFINITE
POSSIBILITIES.
YOU ARE HYPED UP.
BLOOD FILLED
WITH A HEALTHY SURGE
OF MID-COMPETITION TESTOSTERONE,
WHEN YOU ARE SUDDENLY CONFRONTED
WITH A DRUNK, ANGRY SUPPORTER
OF THE COMPETITION,
TRYING TO PSYCHE YOU OU WITH A TORREN OF THE MOST SHOCKING
AND PAINFUL RACIST ABUSE.
IMAGINE SOMEONE
LOOKS YOU IN THE EYE
ON THE BEST NIGHT OF YOUR LIFE
AND CALLS YOU A NIGGER.
AND TELL ME THAT YOUR RESPONSE,
HOWEVER MILD,
HOWEVER IMPASSIONED...
IS UNPROVOKED.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
WOULD THE DEFENDANTS
PLEASE RISE?
I HEREBY SENTENCE
HUNTER, CAMPBELL, AND LAWRENCE
TO TWO YEARS
IN HER MAJESTY'S PRISON.
AS FOR YOU, WOLFAVITZ,
I HAVE TAKEN
INTO ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION
THE SUBMISSION
FROM YOUR SOLICITOR,
THAT CONSIDERING
YOUR BACKGROUND AND EDUCATION,
THIS SITUATION WAS NOT TYPICAL
OF YOUR PREVIOUS CHARACTER,
AND THAT YOU WERE
TO A GREATER EXTEN PLAYING THE NAIVE GAME
OF FOLLOW-MY-LEADER.
YOU ARE SENTENCED
TO EIGHTEEN MONTHS.
BAILIFF, TAKE THEM DOWN.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
TEN MONTHS ALREADY SERVED
ON REMAND.
THEY'LL BE OUT IN, LIKE,
SIX MONTHS
WITH TAGS ON THEIR ANKLES.
[GROANS]
IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE A BOY
VOTE TORY.
[ORLY]
J.J.?
[J.J.]
ORLY?
[ORLY]
J.J.!
HEY, HEY, BABY.

LOADS OF ROOM!

PLEASE?
KEVAN, DO YOU WAN TO STAY?

I'LL GO AND GE MY SPARE PAJAMAS!
HEY, CAREFUL, CAREFUL.
[KEVAN]
YOU ALRIGHT?
YOU MUST HATE THEM
SO MUCH.
NOT ALL OF THEM.
JUST THE ONES
WHO ARE LIKE THEM.
THE GHETTOEY ONES.
THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN
'CAUSE THEY WERE BLACK, MATE.
BUT THAT'S WHY THEY'RE
GETTING AWAY WITH IT,
ISN'T IT?
THAT'S WHAT'S BEHIND
THE JUDGE'S RULING.
IN THE END,
YOU SHOULD'VE KNOWN
HOW THEY'D REAC TO A PAIR OF BATTY BOYS.
THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED
TO KNOW BETTER,
AND YOU ARE.
KEVAN, WE CAN' THINK LIKE THIS, MAN.
THEY CAN?
OH, THEY CAN FEEL
WHAT THEY LIKE
BECAUSE THEY'RE STILL
RECOVERING FROM SLAVERY,
IS THAT IT?
WE'RE NO SLAVE-OWNERS.
WE'RE NOT RACISTS.
DOES THAT MEAN WE
HAVE TO BE FUCKING PUNCH-BAGS
JUST BECAUSE WE'RE
LIBERAL WHITE QUEERS?
ALL RIGHT, THEY DON' HAVE TO LOVE US BACK
BUT DO THEY
HAVE TO HATE US?
ONE OF THEM WAS WHITE,
REMEMBER.
HE WAS WHITE
ONCE HE GOT TO COURT,
BUT WHEN HE WAS STAMPING
YOUR LOVER'S BRAINS OUT,
WHAT COLOR WAS HE TRYING
TO BE, THEN, EH?
[ORLY]
KEEVIE!
HE'S COMING!
I'LL BE UP

NAH, MAN.
HE WANTS TO HEAR
THE S-WORD.
HE WANTS US TO FEEL
THE S-WORD.
HE WANTS US TO RESTORE
HIS FAITH IN 'UMANITY.
WANTS TO BELIEVE AGAIN
THAT THE BLACK FOLK
AIN'T ALL BAD.
WANTS TO FEEL OKAY
FOR LOVING US
DESPITE EVERYTHING,
FOR STILL WANTING
TO BE US.
HE DON'T WANT TO FACE THE FAC THAT HE AIN'T A REAL NIGGA,
AND HE'S JUST A TOURIST.
WANTS TO LIVE
IN HIS DREAM WORLD,
AND FOR IT ALL
TO ALL MAKE SENSE.
INNIT, WIGGABOY?
[EGGY]

IS THAT THE MIRACLE
YOU'RE HERE FOR?

I LOVE YOU, SAMMY.
SAM.
AND YOU LIKE ME.
YOU LOVE J.J.
YES.
BUT WHEN I TELL J.J.,
HE LOOKS SAD.
WELL, THAT'S MEN FOR YOU.
THEY CAN'T HANDLE COMMITMENT.
JUST KEEP TELLING HIM ANYWAY,
'TIL HE SMILES.
YOU HAVE TO WEAR 'IM DOWN.
[ORLY]
EXCUSE ME.

ORLANDO?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?
YOU'VE HAD

BUT YOU TRY AND REMEMBER, YEAH?
[ORLY]

YOU WANT TO PLAY
MUMMIES AND DADDIES?
ORLY!
YOU CAN BE DADDY!
ORLY--
[KNOCK AT DOOR]
WELL, SEEING
AS I DON'T LIVE HERE,
I'M GUESSING
THAT MUST BE FOR YOU.
SAM, TAKE ORLY
TO THE BATHROOM, PLEASE.
COME ON, SKUNKY BUM.
LOCK THE DOOR, YEAH?
YEAH?
MR. JOHANNSON?
I'M DANIEL PEARL.
I REPRESENTED THE DEFENSE
AT THE RECENT TRIAL.
DANIEL PEARL?
I'M SORRY TO HAVE
BOTHERED YOU AT HOME.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
JUSTICE.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE
THAT IF YOUR PARTNER'S ATTACKERS
HAD BEEN JAILED FOR LIFE,
THAT WOULD BE JUSTICE.
IT WOULD NOT.
AS REPELLENT AND DEPRESSING
AS THEY ARE,
THOSE IGNORANT BULLIES
ARE NOT WHAT HAS CAUSED
YOUR UNSPEAKABLE SUFFERING.
THEY ARE MERELY THE CARRIERS
OF THE DISEASE
THAT STRUCK YOUR LOVER DOWN.
I USED TO THINK
THIS DISEASE WAS SOCIETY.
STRUGGLING TO MAKE SENSE
OF THIS SENSELESSNESS,
TO FATHOM THIS BRUTALITY,
UNTIL YESTERDAY,
[RADIO PLAYS]
I CAME ACROSS THIS...
EXTRAORDINARY SOUND.
BASS, DRUMS.
HYPNOTIC.
SEDUCTIVE.
SEXY.
HIJACKING THE VERY BEA OF MY CORRUPTIBLE HEART.
UNTIL I FOUND MYSELF
CHANTING TOO.
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
GO ON PULL A TRIGGER
IN A NIGGER BROTHA'S NAME
SEND A CHI-CHI MAN TO HELL
WITH A SPIKE IN HIS EYE
CHI-CHI MAN DIE,
CHI-CHI MAN DIE.
I'VE GOOGLED CHI-CHI
ON THE NET.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS?
TERMITE.
COCKROACH.
VERMIN.
VERMIN.
AND I WAS SINGING ALONG.
AND THEN I LOOKED
TO MY RIGHT.
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
OUR BRAINS WERE BEING
COLONISED, INFECTED.
GWAN PULL THE TRIGGA
IN A NIGGER BRUTHA'S NAME
I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE OU A CIVIL CASE
AGAINST THE COMPOSERS,
PRODUCERS,
AND PERFORMERS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THIS MUSIC.
THEY ARE THE DISEASE.
WE CAN BE THE CURE.
AND THAT, PERHAPS,
MIGHT BE SOMETHING
LIKE JUSTICE.
[ORLY]
J.J.?
STAY IN THE BATHROOM, BABE,
I'LL BE THERE IN A MINUTE.
[ORLY]
J.J.,
LOOK AT MY FOOTSTEPS,
I'M ROBINSON CRUSOE!
MAN FRIDAY, ORLY.
[SAM]
MORE OF A WET WEEKEND, I'D SAY.
COME ON, SOGGY,
WE NEED TO SORT OUT YOUR TOES
BEFORE YOU GET TRENCH-FOO AND FUCK UP MY CV.
OH, HELLO.
HELLO, SAM.
HELLO!
OH, HELLO ORLANDO.
[KEVAN]
HEY YOU!
HOW'D IT GO?
WHO'S THIS?
[SAM]
THIS IS DANIEL.
HE WAS THE DEFENSE LAWYER
IN THE--
I KNOW WHAT HE IS,
WHAT'S HE DOING HERE?
I JUST WANTED
TO HAVE A QUICK WORD.
HOW ABOUT CUNT?
THAT'S A QUICK WORD.
KEVAN.
COME TO GLOAT, HAVE YA,
FUCKING CUNT!
KEVAN!
COME IN A MINUTE, YEAH?
[RAGGA MUSIC PLAYS]
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
DID YOU GET THAT?
BOOM SOMETHING?
CONVENIENTLY,
IT'S THE TITLE.
"BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY-BOY BRAIN."
J.J.?
'GAT?'
GUN.
'BATTY-BOY?'
I KNOW WHA BATTY-BOYS ARE.
I THINK
THE WORD 'BRAIN' IS UNIVERSAL.
"BANG GOES A GUN
IN A QUEER BOY'S BRAIN."
[MUSIC RESUMES]
GWAN PULL A TRIGGA
INNA NIGGA BRUDDA NAME
"GO ON, PULL A TRIGGER
IN THE NAME OF BLACK MEN."
SEN' A CHI-CHI MAN A HELL
WIT A SPIKE IN THE EYE
[MUSIC STOPS]
"SEND A CHI-CHI MAN TO HELL
WITH A SPIKE IN THE EYE."
IT'S JUST MUSIC.
JUST MUSIC?
[DANIEL]
MUSIC CAN BE INFLUENTIAL.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE
NATIONAL ANTHEMS,
AND HYMNS,
AND FOOTBALL CHANTS.
SO IF THERE WERE
NO FOOTBALL CHANTS,
MUSIC CAN BE A RALLYING CRY.
YEAH, MUSIC CAN BE
A LOT OF THINGS.
BEFORE I FOUND ORLY,
MUSIC WAS
THE ONLY THING
THAT COULD HELP ME.
DID IT HELP YOU BE GAY?
WHAT MUSIC
HELPED YOU BE GAY?
RUFUS WAINWRIGHT.
HIS FIRST ALBUM
WAS MY COLLEGE BIBLE.
AND IF RUFUS TOLD YOU
TO GO OUT AND SHOOT PEOPLE,
WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IT?
NO.
WHY NOT?
[SAM]
'CAUSE HE'S A NICE
WELL-EDUCATED WHITE BOY.
AND WE'RE A BUNCH
OF IMPRESSIONABLE
JUNGLE-BUNNIES WHO DON' KNOW ANY BETTER.
IS THA WHAT YOU THINK I MEAN?
DO YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU MEAN?
YOU FIND THIS MUSIC
ACCEPTABLE?
I FIND IT PAINFUL.
BUT SOME PEOPLE FIND THE SIGH OF TWO MEN KISSING PAINFUL.
IS IT RIGH TO MAKE IT ILLEGAL?
THOSE ARE THEIR ISSUES.
THESE ARE OUR LIVES.
ARE YOU REALLY SUGGESTING
THAT CHALLENGING BLACK PEOPLE
ON HOMOPHOBIA
IS AUTOMATICALLY RACISM?
ARE YOU PLANNING TO PICKE ANY WHITE ARTISTS?
LIKE?
LIKE EMINEM?
GUNS AND ROSES?
KATY PERRY?
I NEED TO LISTEN TO MORE MUSIC.
HERE'S THE THING,
DANIEL.
BLACK PEOPLE EXPEC TO BE UNDER ATTACK.
IF YOU GO AFTER
THE HANDFUL OF BLACK PEOPLE
WHO ARE MAKING ANY MONEY,
ALL WE'LL SEE
IS ANOTHER WHITE MAN
TRYING TO TAKE OUR POWER.
THIS ISN'T ABOU BLACK AND WHITE.
THIS IS ABOUT PEOPLE
TRYING TO HURT US.
IF I WAS HERE TODAY TALKING
ABOUT ROCK MUSIC,
WOULD YOU JOIN US?
I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, JOIN US.
WORK WITH US.
HELP US.
US?

JOIN ME.
US.
I WON'T BE THE GOLLIWOG
ON THE DUST-CART.
SORRY?
SORRY?
I WON'T BE THE MASCOT.
PROOF THAT YOU'RE ALL

I'LL GO EDUCATIONAL
BUT NOT OPPOSITIONAL.

WELL, THERE'S
THIS TRICK I LEARNED
FROM MY GRANDMOTHER,
AUDREY CAMPBELL,
KNOWN AS THE BATTLING BITCH
FROM BRIXTON.
THEY'RE FACING YOU DOWN,

AND YOU HAVE TO MAINTAIN
EYE CONTACT,
BUT YOU GRADUALLY LOWER
THE CENTER OF YOUR GRAVITY,
AS IF YOU'RE CURTSEYING
IN SUPPLICATION
AND SUBORDINATION,
UNTIL YOU CAN JUS SLIP OFF YOUR SHOE,
AND BATTER THE FUCKER
ON THE FACE!
AND THEN RUN!
WITH ONLY ONE SHOE?
I KNOW,
ITS NOT VERY GRACEFUL
WHEN YOU'RE IN HEELS, BUT HEY,
SURVIVAL IS THE ULTIMATE
GLAMOR, I SAY.
UH, OKAY.

I DON'T KNOW WHETHER

MAYBE I JUST NEED

WELL, I CAN RECOMMEND THAT.
I SUPPOSE WE'RE BOTH
A BIT OUT OF PRACTICE, EH?
MAYBE WE COULD
HELP EACH OTHER OUT?
MAYBE, GO OUT ?

RAGGA BUSINESS?
WE AIN'T EVEN
JAMAICANS, MAN.
ALWAYS TRYING TO KEEP UP
WITH THE WINDIANS.
AIN'T WE THE REAL AFRICANS,
THOUGH?
IT ALL STARTED WITH US,
AND HERE'S US TRYING TO HANG.
STRAINING TO CHAT LIKE THEM
FROM THEIR TINY ISLAND.
DON'T DO THAT, MAN.
WE NEVER DO THAT,
WE NEVER TURN ON OUR OWN.
EVERY BLACK MAN
IS A BROTHER.
WHAT ABOUT COPPERS?
AND QUEERS?
THEY FORFEI THEIR BLACKNESS.
AND IT'S IN THE BIBLE,
AIN'T IT MAN?
THOU SHALT NOT...
SOMETHING.
I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
I SWEAR.
MARQUIS, MAN.
WE JUST HAVE TO BE STRONG,
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?
FUCKING BITCH.
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 FUCK
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?

MUTHAFUCKAS

A LITTLE SUMP'IN TO SHOW YOU?

FEMININE SIDE?
HOW COULD A GIRL RESIST?
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
I'LL WORK ON IT.
YO.
'SUP.
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]
[J.J.]
THIS IS ORLY.
I'M AN AIRPLANE!
EVERYONE'S SO SAD.
NO!
DON'T FUCKING TOUCH ME!
LEAVE MY BOY, YEAH?

LOVELY.
SO THIS IS YOUR
SECRET WEAPON, IS IT?
THE SPASTIC AND HIS MAMMY?
AN WHO YOU CALLIN'
MAMMY, BWOY?
WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU CALLING
BWOY, MAMMY?
[SMACKS LIPS]

BULLSHIT.
YOU WANTED TO FUCK US UP,
AND YOU
BROUGHT AUNT JEMIMA HERE

YOU AIN'T A RACIST!
WELL, I GOT NEWS FOR YOU,
WHITE BOY.
THAT AIN'T BLACK,
THAT'S A FUCKING COCONUT!
[SAM]
OH, SING US ANOTHER SONG
WHILE YOU'RE
ON THE CHAIN-GANG.
THAT ONE IS TOO TIRED.
I'M A COCONU BECAUSE I'M GAY?
BECAUSE YOU'RE A TRAITOR
TO YOUR RACE.
LOOK AT YOU.
I BET YOUR DADDY'S
WELL PROUD OF YOU, INNIT?
AND I BET YOUR MAMMA'S
WELL PROUD OF YOU,
PRISONER EIGHT SIX SIX SIX
ONE ZERO, INNIT?
WHAT IS IT YOU
REALLY WANT TO KNOW?
WHY THIS DID HAPPEN TO YOU?
THE NIGGALOVER?
WHY DO NIGGAS
HATE NIGGALOVERS?
WHY DO NIGGAS HATE QUEERS?
WHY DO NIGGAS HATE EVERYONE,
EVEN OTHER NIGGAS?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT NIGGAS DO.
NIGGAS HATE.
NOT ALL, MAN.
ALL!
NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE
ARE NIGGAS.
SEE, WHITE BOY,
THAT'S WHAT YOU AIN' BEEN GETTING.
EVERYONE'S A NIGGA.
EVERY LAST ONE OF US.
AIN'T YOU?
WHY DID YOU WANNA BE AN EMCEE?
ALL THE WAY OUT THERE
IN COW COUNTRY?
BECAUSE YOU WANTED
TO BE A NIGGA?
OR BECAUSE YOU KNEW
YOU WERE ONE?
WHAT IS IT YOU RELATED TO?
THE PASSION?
THE RAGE FOR HOW FUCKED UP
AND UNEVEN AND UNFAIR
THIS WORLD IS?
YOU COME IN HERE TALKING,
"I WANNA FEEL THE HATE."
YOU ALREADY FEEL IT.
WE ALL FEEL IT.
WE'RE ALL NIGGAS,
AND WE ALL HATE QUEERS,
INCLUDING YOU.
ME?
YES, YOU.
YEAH, YOU.
[EGGY]
AIN'T YOU HERE IN HERE WITH ALL
OF US?
UNDER THE SAME LAWS?
UNDER THE SAME RELIGIONS?
[SAM]
YOU WATCH YOUR HANDS
IN CONVERSATION,
AND YOU WONDER
HOW GAY YOU LOOK.
YOU BUILD UP AN ARMOR
OF MUSCLES, LIKE A BILLBOARD
THAT ADVERTISES YOUR
MASCULINITY,
AND STILL YOU WONDER
WHAT EARTHLY USE YOU ARE
IF YOU DON'T PROCREATE.
YOU WONDER WHAT IT IS THA MADE YOU QUEER.
WAS YOU BORN LIKE IT?
OR DID YOUR MOTHER ROCK YOU
WRONG IN THE CRADLE,
OR HAVE YOU GOT A WOMAN'S BRAIN
IN A MAN'S BODY?
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU?
WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU?
YOU MARCH, AND YOU CHANT,
AND YOU LAUGH IN THE FACE
OF THOSE WHO SPIT AND SHI ON YOU AND TELL YOURSELF
YOU CAN BE GAY AND PROUD
AND STILL BE A MAN.
YOU CAN BE BLACK IN THIS WORLD
AND STILL BE A MAN.
BUT THEN
THERE'S THE DOUB THERE'S YOUR HATE.
AND THERE'S YOUR NIGGA.
TRYING TO BE A MAN IN A WORLD
THAT SAYS YOU CAN'T.
TRYING TO BE HERE IN A WORLD
THAT SAYS YOU AIN'T.
AND THE BEST YOU MANAGE
IS TO BE IS A--
CARTOON.
[EGGY]
YES.
IT'S THE MUSIC.
AND THE PREACHER,
AND THE PLAYGROUND,
AND THE PARENTS,
AND YEAH, THEM LAWS
THAT WAS PUT IN PLACE
BACK IN THE DAY
BY THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
THE SAME LAWS
THAT WAS IN PLACE
INNA DIS 'ERE COUNTRY
NOT SO LONG AGO.
IT'S ALL OF THAT,
AND MORE.
THERE AIN'T ONE REASON
WHY NIGGAS HATE QUEERS.
THERE IS EVERY REASON.
'CAUSE WE'RE ALL
QUEERS.
WE'RE ALL NIGGAS.
STRUGGLING TO BE MEN.
UNABLE TO HANDLE YOU,
AND YOUR BOY THERE FUCKING.
FORGET THE MEN LOVIN' MEN
BULLSHIT.

THANKS.
FOR WHAT?
HELPING YOU FIND YOUR HATE?
FOR HELPING ME FIND
MY TRUTH.
THAT HATE IS WEAKNESS.

"THESE ARE THE WORDS
OF MY MASTER,
"KEEP ON TELLING ME, NO WEAK
HEARTS SHALL PROSPER.
AND WHOSOEVER SHALL
DIGGETH A PIT SHALL--
FALL IN IT.
SHALL BURY IN IT.

"NO, DREAD, NO.
"WELL, THE BIGGEST MAN
I EVER DID SEE...
"WAS--
"A BABY."
WE GOIN' A HELL,

"LET THEM ALL PASS
THEIR DIRTY REMARKS.
"THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
I'D REALLY LIKE TO ARX.

I'VE BLOWN A MONTH'S BUDGE ON DRESSING LIKE BEENIE MAN,

OUT OF THE HOUSE
LOOKING LIKE
QUEENIE MAN.
I'M A LIABILITY.
YOU'RE NOT A LIABILITY.
THEN...
WHY'VE YOU NEVER
BROUGHT ME ALONG BEFORE?
'CAUSE EVERYONE
ON THE URBAN SCENE
HATES BOTTYBOYS
AND CHA-CHA MEN.
BATTYBOYS
AND CHI-CHI MEN.
IT'S JUST MUSIC, ORLY.

MISTER...
WOLFAVITZ?
DANIEL PEARL.
I'VE BEEN ASSIGNED BY LEGAL AID
TO DEFEND YOUR CASE.
YOU'RE FIRED.
WELL, THAT WAS
NICE AND QUICK.
TELL 'EM I WANT A BRUTHA
ON MY CASE, ALL RIGHT?
AND MAKE HIM STRAIGH WHILE YOU'RE AT IT.
AH.
WHAT?
WHAT?
THAT MAY PROVE IRKSOME.
I'M AFRAID THERE'S ONLY ONE
HETEROSEXUAL BLACK MAN
ON LEGAL AID
IN THIS CATCHMENT AREA,
AND HE'S SNOWED UNDER WITH CASES
FOR A LEAST A YEAR.
THERE ARE
A COUPLE OF BLACK WOMEN.
I THINK ONE OF THEM MIGHT BE
STRAIGHT OR AT LEAST...
BISEXUAL.
WOULD YOU LIKE ME
TO MAKE ENQUIRIES?
SO WHY AIN'T YOU
BOOKED UP?
YOU THE DREGS OR WHAT?
I AM THAT RARE BREED--
THE BRIGHT-EYED,
BUSHY-TAILED IDEALIS BURDENED WITH ENOUGH
WHITE LIBERAL GUIL TO PRESENT YOUR CASE
WITH THE UTMOST COMMITMEN TO THE RULE OF LAW WITHOU PERSONAL PREJUDICE.
[HISSES]
HOWEVER, AS YOU
SEEM SO SURE
THAT A HETEROSEXUAL
BLACK SOLICITOR
WILL BE MORE SYMPATHETIC
TO YOUR POSITION,
I HUMBLY BOW TO YOUR
DECISION, GOOD DAY.
[VENOM]
HE CALLED US NIGGERS.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
HE THOUGH WE WAS DRUG DEALERS.
AND WHEN WE SAID WE'RE WEREN'T,
HE CALLED US
THE N-WORD.
AND WE OVERREACTED.
I'M USUALLY A PEACEFUL MAN,
YOUR HONOR,
I SWEAR ON MY BIBLE,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAME OVER ME.
BUT I KNOW THIS, MA'AM.
I'M REALLY, REALLY...
SORRY.
[DANIEL]
IMAGINE YOU ARE ONE OF THESE
FOUR HARD-WORKING,
FOCUSED YOUNG MEN,
AT THE STAR OF YOUR DREAM CAREER,
A CAREER THAT WILL
TAKE YOU AWAY
FROM YOUR HUMBLE BEGINNINGS,
AND TO A WORLD OF INFINITE
POSSIBILITIES.
YOU ARE HYPED UP.
BLOOD FILLED
WITH A HEALTHY SURGE
OF MID-COMPETITION TESTOSTERONE,
WHEN YOU ARE SUDDENLY CONFRONTED
WITH A DRUNK, ANGRY SUPPORTER
OF THE COMPETITION,
TRYING TO PSYCHE YOU OU WITH A TORREN OF THE MOST SHOCKING
AND PAINFUL RACIST ABUSE.
IMAGINE SOMEONE
LOOKS YOU IN THE EYE
ON THE BEST NIGHT OF YOUR LIFE
AND CALLS YOU A NIGGER.
AND TELL ME THAT YOUR RESPONSE,
HOWEVER MILD,
HOWEVER IMPASSIONED...
IS UNPROVOKED.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
WOULD THE DEFENDANTS
PLEASE RISE?
I HEREBY SENTENCE
HUNTER, CAMPBELL, AND LAWRENCE
TO TWO YEARS
IN HER MAJESTY'S PRISON.
AS FOR YOU, WOLFAVITZ,
I HAVE TAKEN
INTO ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION
THE SUBMISSION
FROM YOUR SOLICITOR,
THAT CONSIDERING
YOUR BACKGROUND AND EDUCATION,
THIS SITUATION WAS NOT TYPICAL
OF YOUR PREVIOUS CHARACTER,
AND THAT YOU WERE
TO A GREATER EXTEN PLAYING THE NAIVE GAME
OF FOLLOW-MY-LEADER.
YOU ARE SENTENCED
TO EIGHTEEN MONTHS.
BAILIFF, TAKE THEM DOWN.
[GAVEL SLAMS]
TEN MONTHS ALREADY SERVED
ON REMAND.
THEY'LL BE OUT IN, LIKE,
SIX MONTHS
WITH TAGS ON THEIR ANKLES.
[GROANS]
IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE A BOY
VOTE TORY.
[ORLY]
J.J.?
[J.J.]
ORLY?
[ORLY]
J.J.!
HEY, HEY, BABY.

LOADS OF ROOM!

PLEASE?
KEVAN, DO YOU WAN TO STAY?

I'LL GO AND GE MY SPARE PAJAMAS!
HEY, CAREFUL, CAREFUL.
[KEVAN]
YOU ALRIGHT?
YOU MUST HATE THEM
SO MUCH.
NOT ALL OF THEM.
JUST THE ONES
WHO ARE LIKE THEM.
THE GHETTOEY ONES.
THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN
'CAUSE THEY WERE BLACK, MATE.
BUT THAT'S WHY THEY'RE
GETTING AWAY WITH IT,
ISN'T IT?
THAT'S WHAT'S BEHIND
THE JUDGE'S RULING.
IN THE END,
YOU SHOULD'VE KNOWN
HOW THEY'D REAC TO A PAIR OF BATTY BOYS.
THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED
TO KNOW BETTER,
AND YOU ARE.
KEVAN, WE CAN' THINK LIKE THIS, MAN.
THEY CAN?
OH, THEY CAN FEEL
WHAT THEY LIKE
BECAUSE THEY'RE STILL
RECOVERING FROM SLAVERY,
IS THAT IT?
WE'RE NO SLAVE-OWNERS.
WE'RE NOT RACISTS.
DOES THAT MEAN WE
HAVE TO BE FUCKING PUNCH-BAGS
JUST BECAUSE WE'RE
LIBERAL WHITE QUEERS?
ALL RIGHT, THEY DON' HAVE TO LOVE US BACK
BUT DO THEY
HAVE TO HATE US?
ONE OF THEM WAS WHITE,
REMEMBER.
HE WAS WHITE
ONCE HE GOT TO COURT,
BUT WHEN HE WAS STAMPING
YOUR LOVER'S BRAINS OUT,
WHAT COLOR WAS HE TRYING
TO BE, THEN, EH?
[ORLY]
KEEVIE!
HE'S COMING!
I'LL BE UP

NAH, MAN.
HE WANTS TO HEAR
THE S-WORD.
HE WANTS US TO FEEL
THE S-WORD.
HE WANTS US TO RESTORE
HIS FAITH IN 'UMANITY.
WANTS TO BELIEVE AGAIN
THAT THE BLACK FOLK
AIN'T ALL BAD.
WANTS TO FEEL OKAY
FOR LOVING US
DESPITE EVERYTHING,
FOR STILL WANTING
TO BE US.
HE DON'T WANT TO FACE THE FAC THAT HE AIN'T A REAL NIGGA,
AND HE'S JUST A TOURIST.
WANTS TO LIVE
IN HIS DREAM WORLD,
AND FOR IT ALL
TO ALL MAKE SENSE.
INNIT, WIGGABOY?
[EGGY]

YOU'RE HERE FOR?

I LOVE YOU, SAMMY.
SAM.
AND YOU LIKE ME.
YOU LOVE J.J.
YES.
BUT WHEN I TELL J.J.,
HE LOOKS SAD.
WELL, THAT'S MEN FOR YOU.
THEY CAN'T HANDLE COMMITMENT.
JUST KEEP TELLING HIM ANYWAY,

YOU HAVE TO WEAR 'IM DOWN.
[ORLY]
EXCUSE ME.

ORLANDO?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?
YOU'VE HAD
AN ACCIDENT, LOVE.
OH, YEAH.
[ORLY]

ORLY.
I LOVE YOU J.J.
YOU WANT TO PLAY
MUMMIES AND DADDIES?
ORLY!
YOU CAN BE DADDY!
ORLY--
[KNOCK AT DOOR]
WELL, SEEING
AS I DON'T LIVE HERE,
I'M GUESSING
THAT MUST BE FOR YOU.
SAM, TAKE ORLY
TO THE BATHROOM, PLEASE.
COME ON, SKUNKY BUM.
LOCK THE DOOR, YEAH?
YEAH?
MR. JOHANNSON?
I'M DANIEL PEARL.
I REPRESENTED THE DEFENSE
AT THE RECENT TRIAL.
DANIEL PEARL?
I'M SORRY TO HAVE
BOTHERED YOU AT HOME.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
JUSTICE.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE
THAT IF YOUR PARTNER'S ATTACKERS
HAD BEEN JAILED FOR LIFE,
THAT WOULD BE JUSTICE.
IT WOULD NOT.
AS REPELLENT AND DEPRESSING
AS THEY ARE,
THOSE IGNORANT BULLIES
ARE NOT WHAT HAS CAUSED
YOUR UNSPEAKABLE SUFFERING.
THEY ARE MERELY THE CARRIERS
OF THE DISEASE
THAT STRUCK YOUR LOVER DOWN.
I USED TO THINK
THIS DISEASE WAS SOCIETY.
STRUGGLING TO MAKE SENSE
OF THIS SENSELESSNESS,
TO FATHOM THIS BRUTALITY,
UNTIL YESTERDAY,
[RADIO PLAYS]
I CAME ACROSS THIS...
EXTRAORDINARY SOUND.
BASS, DRUMS.
HYPNOTIC.
SEDUCTIVE.
SEXY.
HIJACKING THE VERY BEA OF MY CORRUPTIBLE HEART.
UNTIL I FOUND MYSELF
CHANTING TOO.
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
GO ON PULL A TRIGGER
IN A NIGGER BROTHA'S NAME
SEND A CHI-CHI MAN TO HELL
WITH A SPIKE IN HIS EYE
CHI-CHI MAN DIE,
CHI-CHI MAN DIE.
I'VE GOOGLED CHI-CHI
ON THE NET.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS?
TERMITE.
COCKROACH.
VERMIN.
VERMIN.
AND I WAS SINGING ALONG.
AND THEN I LOOKED
TO MY RIGHT.
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
OUR BRAINS WERE BEING
COLONISED, INFECTED.
GWAN PULL THE TRIGGA
IN A NIGGER BRUTHA'S NAME
I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE OU A CIVIL CASE
AGAINST THE COMPOSERS,
PRODUCERS,
AND PERFORMERS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THIS MUSIC.
THEY ARE THE DISEASE.
WE CAN BE THE CURE.
AND THAT, PERHAPS,
MIGHT BE SOMETHING
LIKE JUSTICE.
[ORLY]
J.J.?
STAY IN THE BATHROOM, BABE,
I'LL BE THERE IN A MINUTE.
[ORLY]
J.J.,
LOOK AT MY FOOTSTEPS,
I'M ROBINSON CRUSOE!
MAN FRIDAY, ORLY.
[SAM]
MORE OF A WET WEEKEND, I'D SAY.
COME ON, SOGGY,
WE NEED TO SORT OUT YOUR TOES
BEFORE YOU GET TRENCH-FOO AND FUCK UP MY CV.
OH, HELLO.
HELLO, SAM.
HELLO!
OH, HELLO ORLANDO.
[KEVAN]
HEY YOU!
HOW'D IT GO?
WHO'S THIS?
[SAM]
THIS IS DANIEL.
HE WAS THE DEFENSE LAWYER
IN THE--
I KNOW WHAT HE IS,
WHAT'S HE DOING HERE?
I JUST WANTED
TO HAVE A QUICK WORD.
HOW ABOUT CUNT?
THAT'S A QUICK WORD.
KEVAN.
COME TO GLOAT, HAVE YA,
FUCKING CUNT!
KEVAN!
COME IN A MINUTE, YEAH?
[RAGGA MUSIC PLAYS]
BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY BWOY'S BRAIN
DID YOU GET THAT?
BOOM SOMETHING?
CONVENIENTLY,
IT'S THE TITLE.
"BOOM GO A GA IN A BATTY-BOY BRAIN."
J.J.?
'GAT?'
GUN.
'BATTY-BOY?'
I KNOW WHA BATTY-BOYS ARE.
I THINK
THE WORD 'BRAIN' IS UNIVERSAL.
"BANG GOES A GUN
IN A QUEER BOY'S BRAIN."
[MUSIC RESUMES]
GWAN PULL A TRIGGA
INNA NIGGA BRUDDA NAME
"GO ON, PULL A TRIGGER
IN THE NAME OF BLACK MEN."
SEN' A CHI-CHI MAN A HELL
WIT A SPIKE IN THE EYE
[MUSIC STOPS]
"SEND A CHI-CHI MAN TO HELL
WITH A SPIKE IN THE EYE."
IT'S JUST MUSIC.
JUST MUSIC?
[DANIEL]
MUSIC CAN BE INFLUENTIAL.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE
NATIONAL ANTHEMS,
AND HYMNS,
AND FOOTBALL CHANTS.
SO IF THERE WERE
NO FOOTBALL CHANTS,
MUSIC CAN BE A RALLYING CRY.
YEAH, MUSIC CAN BE
A LOT OF THINGS.
BEFORE I FOUND ORLY,
MUSIC WAS
THE ONLY THING
THAT COULD HELP ME.
DID IT HELP YOU BE GAY?
WHAT MUSIC
HELPED YOU BE GAY?
RUFUS WAINWRIGHT.
HIS FIRST ALBUM
WAS MY COLLEGE BIBLE.
AND IF RUFUS TOLD YOU
TO GO OUT AND SHOOT PEOPLE,
WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IT?
NO.
WHY NOT?
[SAM]
'CAUSE HE'S A NICE
WELL-EDUCATED WHITE BOY.
AND WE'RE A BUNCH
OF IMPRESSIONABLE
JUNGLE-BUNNIES WHO DON' KNOW ANY BETTER.
IS THA WHAT YOU THINK I MEAN?
DO YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU MEAN?
YOU FIND THIS MUSIC
ACCEPTABLE?
I FIND IT PAINFUL.
BUT SOME PEOPLE FIND THE SIGH OF TWO MEN KISSING PAINFUL.
IS IT RIGH TO MAKE IT ILLEGAL?
THOSE ARE THEIR ISSUES.
THESE ARE OUR LIVES.
ARE YOU REALLY SUGGESTING
THAT CHALLENGING BLACK PEOPLE
ON HOMOPHOBIA
IS AUTOMATICALLY RACISM?
ARE YOU PLANNING TO PICKE ANY WHITE ARTISTS?
LIKE?
LIKE EMINEM?
GUNS AND ROSES?

IT ALL STARTED WITH US,
AND HERE'S US TRYING TO HANG.
STRAINING TO CHAT LIKE THEM
FROM THEIR TINY ISLAND.
DON'T DO THAT, MAN.
WE NEVER DO THAT,

EVERY BLACK MAN

WHAT ABOUT COPPERS?
AND QUEERS?
THEY FORFEI THEIR BLACKNESS.
AND IT'S IN THE BIBLE,
AIN'T IT MAN?
THOU SHALT NOT...
SOMETHING.
I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
I SWEAR.
MARQUIS, MAN.

[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?
FUCKING BITCH.
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 FUCK

JUST A WALL OF MAN
WITH NO WAY IN,
NO KEYHOLE
OF TENDERNESS ANYWHERE?
WHAT YOU TRYING HERE,

[SOBS]
WAS IT THE MUSIC?
YOU HAD ME AT HELLO.

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]

[SAM]

THAT ONE IS TOO TIRED.
I'M A COCONU BECAUSE I'M GAY?
BECAUSE YOU'RE A TRAITOR
TO YOUR RACE.
LOOK AT YOU.
I BET YOUR DADDY'S
WELL PROUD OF YOU, INNIT?
AND I BET YOUR MAMMA'S
WELL PROUD OF YOU,
PRISONER EIGHT SIX SIX SIX

WHAT IS IT YOU

WHY THIS DID HAPPEN TO YOU?
THE NIGGALOVER?
WHY DO NIGGAS
HATE NIGGALOVERS?
WHY DO NIGGAS HATE QUEERS?
WHY DO NIGGAS HATE EVERYONE,
EVEN OTHER NIGGAS?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT NIGGAS DO.
NIGGAS HATE.
NOT ALL, MAN.

NOT ALL BLACK PEOPLE
ARE NIGGAS.
SEE, WHITE BOY,
THAT'S WHAT YOU AIN' BEEN GETTING.
EVERYONE'S A NIGGA.
EVERY LAST ONE OF US.
AIN'T YOU?
WHY DID YOU WANNA BE AN EMCEE?
ALL THE WAY OUT THERE
IN COW COUNTRY?
BECAUSE YOU WANTED
TO BE A NIGGA?
OR BECAUSE YOU KNEW
YOU WERE ONE?
WHAT IS IT YOU RELATED TO?
THE PASSION?
THE RAGE FOR HOW FUCKED UP
AND UNEVEN AND UNFAIR
THIS WORLD IS?
YOU COME IN HERE TALKING,
"I WANNA FEEL THE HATE."
YOU ALREADY FEEL IT.

WE'RE ALL NIGGAS,
AND WE ALL HATE QUEERS,
INCLUDING YOU.
ME?
YES, YOU.
YEAH, YOU.
[EGGY]
AIN'T YOU HERE IN HERE WITH ALL

UNDER THE SAME LAWS?
UNDER THE SAME RELIGIONS?
[SAM]
YOU WATCH YOUR HANDS
IN CONVERSATION,
AND YOU WONDER
HOW GAY YOU LOOK.
YOU BUILD UP AN ARMOR
OF MUSCLES, LIKE A BILLBOARD
THAT ADVERTISES YOUR
MASCULINITY,
AND STILL YOU WONDER
WHAT EARTHLY USE YOU ARE
IF YOU DON'T PROCREATE.
YOU WONDER WHAT IT IS THA MADE YOU QUEER.
WAS YOU BORN LIKE IT?
OR DID YOUR MOTHER ROCK YOU
WRONG IN THE CRADLE,
OR HAVE YOU GOT A WOMAN'S BRAIN
IN A MAN'S BODY?
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU?
WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU?
YOU MARCH, AND YOU CHANT,
AND YOU LAUGH IN THE FACE
OF THOSE WHO SPIT AND SHI ON YOU AND TELL YOURSELF
YOU CAN BE GAY AND PROUD
AND STILL BE A MAN.
YOU CAN BE BLACK IN THIS WORLD
AND STILL BE A MAN.
BUT THEN
THERE'S THE DOUB THERE'S YOUR HATE.
AND THERE'S YOUR NIGGA.
TRYING TO BE A MAN IN A WORLD

TRYING TO BE HERE IN A WORLD

AND THE PARENTS,
AND YEAH, THEM LAWS
THAT WAS PUT IN PLACE
BACK IN THE DAY
BY THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
THE SAME LAWS
THAT WAS IN PLACE
INNA DIS 'ERE COUNTRY
NOT SO LONG AGO.
IT'S ALL OF THAT,
AND MORE.
THERE AIN'T ONE REASON
WHY NIGGAS HATE QUEERS.
THERE IS EVERY REASON.
'CAUSE WE'RE ALL
QUEERS.
WE'RE ALL NIGGAS.
STRUGGLING TO BE MEN.
UNABLE TO HANDLE YOU,

"KEEP ON TELLING ME, NO WEAK
HEARTS SHALL PROSPER.
AND WHOSOEVER SHALL
DIGGETH A PIT SHALL--
