Austin Offscript

The United States government then legally codified this shit to keep black people as tools to be used.

This is why the Civil Rights Movement was so successful, because all we were asking the United States to do was to treat us as what the white man was, which was human beings.

Is that not what happened?

Because when you fought for our freedom, that's like asking a father to get Father of the Year for showing up to his son's basketball game.

No, it's nothing like that.

You don't get credit for doing what you're supposed to do.

You should have never enslaved us based on skin color to begin with.

You were no longer slaves.

Right, but did we get land grants?

Did we get back any sort of record?

When we weren't slaves, I'll give you that.

Were white slave owners compensated by the United States federal government for the loss of property?

Answer that question, Beau.

That requires a yes or no.

No, it doesn't.

We're white slave owners compensated by the U.S.

Nothing is yes or no.

Oh, yes, it is.

Can we talk about history?

That's what I'm, I'm having history.
