Almost there, boy.
Almost there.

41
00:02:55.609 --> 00:02:57.543
It's my leg.
I know it's your leg.

42
00:02:57.545 --> 00:02:58.977
It hurts.

43
00:02:58.979 --> 00:03:00.779
Yeah. They got ether.

44
00:03:02.849 --> 00:03:05.350
Here we go. Here we go.

45
00:03:22.635 --> 00:03:24.436
Hold pressure.
Hold pressure here.

46
00:03:33.513 --> 00:03:35.214
Let's get this off you.

47
00:03:35.216 --> 00:03:38.884
If they think
you're an officer,
they'll fix you sooner.

48
00:03:38.886 --> 00:03:41.320
Yeah, they're gonna fix you.
Here we go.

49
00:03:41.322 --> 00:03:42.721
One, two, three.

50
00:03:47.827 --> 00:03:49.595
We need clean water!

51
00:03:49.597 --> 00:03:52.064
Hold pressure here.

52
00:03:52.066 --> 00:03:54.766
The lord is
the stronghold of my life.

53
00:03:57.671 --> 00:04:00.772
Captain Jeffrey Bailey here,
7th Tennessee.

54
00:04:00.774 --> 00:04:02.541
Mini ball, left thigh.

55
00:04:02.543 --> 00:04:04.376
Captain!
I got a captain here!

56
00:04:04.378 --> 00:04:06.845
Captain up front!
Captain up front!
Hold him!

57
00:04:09.682 --> 00:04:11.750
Hold him down!
Hold him!

58
00:04:38.778 --> 00:04:40.812
Where they going?

59
00:04:41.948 --> 00:04:43.215
Charleston.

60
00:04:43.217 --> 00:04:45.117
Charleston.

61
00:04:45.119 --> 00:04:48.820
That's Carolina 3rd.
A bunch of them
are headed home.

62
00:04:49.822 --> 00:04:51.556
Twenty negro law.

63
00:04:53.726 --> 00:04:56.828
If you own 20 negroes,
you get to go home.

64
00:04:56.830 --> 00:04:58.764
Since when?

65
00:04:58.766 --> 00:05:00.332
The first, I guess.

66
00:05:00.334 --> 00:05:02.167
New conscription act.

67
00:05:03.403 --> 00:05:05.771
Poor man's fightin'
a rich man's war.

68
00:05:05.773 --> 00:05:07.239
Yeah.

69
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:17.316
You know they got
a house in natchez
with gold doorknobs.

70
00:05:17.318 --> 00:05:19.451
Not gold-lookin'.

71
00:05:19.453 --> 00:05:21.753
Gold. Real gold.

72
00:05:23.122 --> 00:05:25.424
"But all their gold
and all their silver

73
00:05:25.426 --> 00:05:27.826
will not protect them
from the wrath of the lord."

74
00:05:32.131 --> 00:05:36.635
You so smart, Jasper,
how come you
still here, huh?

75
00:05:36.637 --> 00:05:39.271
"The oldest son
on such plantations

76
00:05:39.273 --> 00:05:42.040
where 20 or more negroes
are owned or leased

77
00:05:42.042 --> 00:05:45.344
are hereby exempt in the armies
of the confederate states.

78
00:05:45.346 --> 00:05:47.379
Furthermore, any plantation

79
00:05:47.381 --> 00:05:51.049
where the total number
of negroes owned or leased
shall equal 40,

80
00:05:51.051 --> 00:05:54.553
the eldest and second eldest
shall be exempt
from military service."

81
00:05:54.555 --> 00:05:57.723
That's you
and a brother.

82
00:05:57.725 --> 00:06:02.527
And then it goes up
one family member
for every 20 negroes after that.

83
00:06:02.529 --> 00:06:07.532
So what, if we all chip in
and buy us one negro,
we get a couple weeks off?

84
00:06:10.037 --> 00:06:12.337
Ah, I swear,
I'm tired of it, Jasper--

85
00:06:12.339 --> 00:06:15.073
tired of helpin' them
fight for their damn cotton.

86
00:06:15.075 --> 00:06:18.810
You don't fight anyway.
You're a nurse.

87
00:06:18.812 --> 00:06:22.914
Yeah, you get gut-shot
out there tomorrow, will,

88
00:06:22.916 --> 00:06:27.085
why don't you go find
an artillery officer,
see if he can help you.

89
00:06:27.087 --> 00:06:30.422
I ain't fightin'
for cotton.
I'm fightin' for honor.

90
00:06:30.424 --> 00:06:32.791
Oh, that's good, will.

91
00:06:34.093 --> 00:06:36.495
I'd sure hate
to be fightin' for cotton.

92
00:07:02.588 --> 00:07:04.790
Who's there?

93
00:07:04.792 --> 00:07:06.691
Uncle newt.

94
00:07:09.729 --> 00:07:11.196
Daniel.

95
00:07:12.098 --> 00:07:14.132
That you, boy?
Come here.

96
00:07:14.134 --> 00:07:15.600
Hey, hey,
hey, hey.

97
00:07:15.602 --> 00:07:17.903
What happened?

98
00:07:17.905 --> 00:07:19.404
They-they took me,

99
00:07:19.406 --> 00:07:23.141
and they took
the mule and our hogs,

100
00:07:23.143 --> 00:07:25.043
half the corn crib,

101
00:07:25.045 --> 00:07:27.379
and they told me
I'd been drafted.

102
00:07:33.286 --> 00:07:35.253
Can I stay with you?

103
00:07:35.255 --> 00:07:38.790
Of course you can, boy.
You're my kin.

104
00:07:38.792 --> 00:07:40.826
They put me
with another company,

105
00:07:40.828 --> 00:07:43.795
and I finally ran off
and I looked for you all day.

106
00:07:43.797 --> 00:07:46.665
I found this man
and told him I was from Jones,

107
00:07:46.667 --> 00:07:49.134
and he said that was
Mississippi 7th, and so--

108
00:07:49.136 --> 00:07:51.570
shh, shh, shh.
I got you, boy.
I got you.

109
00:07:51.572 --> 00:07:54.473
I got you. I got you.

110
00:07:54.475 --> 00:07:57.242
I got you.
I got you.

111
00:07:57.244 --> 00:07:58.777
You're with me.

112
00:07:58.779 --> 00:08:00.278
You're with me now.

113
00:08:03.950 --> 00:08:06.218
Are you gonna be there
with me tomorrow?

114
00:08:13.593 --> 00:08:15.660
Yeah, I'm gonna be there
with you tomorrow.

115
00:08:15.662 --> 00:08:19.431
You hear me?
I'm gonna be there
with you tomorrow.

116
00:08:31.677 --> 00:08:35.881
We're gonna make
for a tree line
about a quarter mile out.

117
00:08:35.883 --> 00:08:40.018
You don't listen
to no sergeant, no officers.
Only me. You understand now?

118
00:08:40.020 --> 00:08:43.121
When I tell you to go,
move fast and stay close
to me.

119
00:08:43.123 --> 00:08:45.624
All right?
You got a full load?

120
00:08:48.227 --> 00:08:50.595
Half-cock, safe.
Full-cock, fire.

121
00:08:54.033 --> 00:08:56.801
Ain't no different
than shootin' a bird
or a deer, Daniel.

122
00:08:56.803 --> 00:08:58.837
No different than that.
All right?

123
00:08:58.839 --> 00:09:00.071
Okay.

124
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:03.141
They're shelling us.

125
00:09:03.143 --> 00:09:05.644
Come on. Move.
Right this way.

126
00:09:09.082 --> 00:09:11.783
Stay low. Low.
Stay low.

127
00:09:24.363 --> 00:09:27.499
See that rifle pit
about 50 yards out?

128
00:09:27.501 --> 00:09:29.601
That's where we headin'.

129
00:09:29.603 --> 00:09:31.670
That's where we're going.

130
00:09:32.605 --> 00:09:34.873
You ready? You ready?

131
00:09:34.875 --> 00:09:36.908
Let's go. Go! Go! Go!

132
00:09:38.044 --> 00:09:39.578
Stay behind me!

133
00:09:44.550 --> 00:09:46.017
Go down.

134
00:09:46.786 --> 00:09:48.486
Ahh!

135
00:09:51.057 --> 00:09:53.992
You all right? Huh?
You all right?

136
00:10:05.371 --> 00:10:07.772
All right. All right.

137
00:10:07.774 --> 00:10:09.474
All right, stay down.

138
00:10:09.476 --> 00:10:12.077
They got sharpshooters
out there.

139
00:10:12.079 --> 00:10:14.479
We're gonna make a way
for that tree line, all right?

140
00:10:14.481 --> 00:10:16.781
Find some shelter
and hide out.

141
00:10:16.783 --> 00:10:18.216
You all right?

142
00:10:18.218 --> 00:10:19.851
All right, let's go.
Stay low.

143
00:10:23.089 --> 00:10:25.924
Whoa, whoa!
Careful. Down. Down.

144
00:10:25.926 --> 00:10:27.759
Who you with?

145
00:10:27.761 --> 00:10:29.928
Mississippi 5th,
"f" company.

146
00:10:29.930 --> 00:10:32.330
We all that's left.

147
00:10:32.332 --> 00:10:36.568
All right, you're with us now.
We're makin' for that Ridge
over to the right.

148
00:10:36.570 --> 00:10:39.237
-Uh-huh.
-So fix bayonets!

149
00:10:45.578 --> 00:10:47.479
Fix your bayonet, boy.
Yeah, I got it.

150
00:10:47.481 --> 00:10:49.247
Here.

151
00:10:52.918 --> 00:10:54.152
Fixed!

152
00:10:54.154 --> 00:10:57.656
All right.
You ready? Ready?

153
00:10:57.658 --> 00:10:59.491
All right.

154
00:10:59.493 --> 00:11:01.693
On my command.

155
00:11:01.695 --> 00:11:03.695
Ready?

156
00:11:03.697 --> 00:11:05.697
- Go! Go! Go!
- Go! Go! Go! Go!

157
00:11:07.199 --> 00:11:08.366
Go, boy! Move!

158
00:11:08.368 --> 00:11:10.969
Hold, hold, hold.
Hold, Daniel. Hold.

159
00:11:10.971 --> 00:11:12.270
Move!
Hold!

160
00:11:13.974 --> 00:11:14.839
Shit!

161
00:11:16.142 --> 00:11:17.542
Uncle newt?

162
00:11:17.544 --> 00:11:19.010
No!

163
00:11:20.880 --> 00:11:22.247
Ahh!

164
00:11:25.117 --> 00:11:27.485
Uncle newt?

165
00:11:27.487 --> 00:11:30.522
I got you, boy.
It's gonna be all right.
It's all right.

166
00:11:30.524 --> 00:11:32.624
It hurts.
I know it hurts.

167
00:11:32.626 --> 00:11:35.293
Just hold on to me tight.
Hold on to me.

168
00:11:35.295 --> 00:11:38.129
Am I gonna die?
You're not gonna die.
I'm gonna fix ya.

169
00:11:51.143 --> 00:11:53.344
Can I get some help
right here?

170
00:11:53.346 --> 00:11:55.914
I got a boy here.
I got a boy here.

171
00:11:55.916 --> 00:11:57.916
I got a boy here.

172
00:11:57.918 --> 00:12:00.418
And I got officers
i can't even get to.

173
00:12:00.420 --> 00:12:02.420
It hurts.

174
00:12:02.422 --> 00:12:04.923
I got you, boy.

00:12:04.925 --> 00:12:09.260

I'm gonna get you a doctor.
Gonna get you a doctor.

176
00:12:09.262 --> 00:12:11.730
Hang on. Hang on.

177
00:12:11.732 --> 00:12:15.500
Can I have some water?
Shh. In a second.
In a second.

178
00:12:15.502 --> 00:12:17.502
I'm just so thirsty.

179
00:12:21.507 --> 00:12:24.375
Why am I so thirsty?

180
00:12:24.377 --> 00:12:26.678
Shh. Shh.

181
00:12:28.047 --> 00:12:30.582
Hang on, boy.
Hang on, boy.

182
00:12:30.584 --> 00:12:34.285
Hang on, boy.
Hang on. Hang on.

183
00:12:53.038 --> 00:12:56.107
There we go.
There we go.
There we go.

184
00:12:56.109 --> 00:12:59.110
--Shh.

185
00:12:59.112 --> 00:13:01.613
You love god,
don't you, Daniel?

186
00:13:01.615 --> 00:13:04.015
Hmm?

187
00:13:05.484 --> 00:13:06.985
Yes.

188
00:13:08.621 --> 00:13:11.156
There we go.

189
00:13:11.158 --> 00:13:14.425
I'm scared.
I know you are.

190
00:13:14.427 --> 00:13:17.061
But you love god,
and god loves you.

191
00:13:17.663 --> 00:13:18.963
You understand?

192
00:13:20.332 --> 00:13:22.600
Jesus loves you, son.

193
00:13:22.602 --> 00:13:24.402
You're not dying.

194
00:13:25.471 --> 00:13:27.238
You're not dying.

195
00:13:28.107 --> 00:13:30.408
You're not dying.

196
00:13:32.611 --> 00:13:35.313
You're not--
you're not dying.

197
00:13:58.504 --> 00:14:01.005
You know
they shoot deserters, don't you?

198
00:14:01.007 --> 00:14:03.308
Well, they shoot everybody
around here anyway.

199
00:14:03.310 --> 00:14:06.177
It don't seem
to make no difference
where the bullet come from.

200
00:14:06.179 --> 00:14:07.612
And you're stealing
a mule.

201
00:14:09.348 --> 00:14:12.350
You know,
we can bury him proper
right here, newt.

202
00:14:12.352 --> 00:14:13.885
We don't have to leave him.

203
00:14:13.887 --> 00:14:15.620
Nah, he's going home,
Jasper.

204
00:14:17.056 --> 00:14:19.224
It's where he belongs.

205
00:14:22.628 --> 00:14:24.128
Here.

206
00:14:26.198 --> 00:14:28.733
Take my hardtack too.
It's a long trip.

207
00:14:30.469 --> 00:14:31.970
Appreciate it.

208
00:14:33.005 --> 00:14:34.873
He died with honor, newt.

209
00:14:34.875 --> 00:14:37.108
No, will.

210
00:14:39.144 --> 00:14:41.212
He just died.

211
00:15:57.122 --> 00:15:59.223
I tried
to save him, Annie. I--

212
00:16:01.093 --> 00:16:03.328
I did everything I could.
He-- he--

213
00:16:03.330 --> 00:16:04.662
it ain't your fault.

214
00:16:06.432 --> 00:16:08.566
You didn't start
this war, did you?

215
00:16:10.436 --> 00:16:11.869
Or drag him out of here.

216
00:16:20.612 --> 00:16:22.814
He's my boy.

217
00:16:22.816 --> 00:16:24.582
Daniel.

218
00:16:24.584 --> 00:16:27.251
Oh, my boy.

219
00:16:28.187 --> 00:16:29.420
Dan--

220
00:16:31.256 --> 00:16:32.991
Dan--

221
00:16:37.529 --> 00:16:40.298
they hung
three deserters
down in Perry.

222
00:16:40.300 --> 00:16:42.333
Didn't put 'em back
in the army.

223
00:16:42.335 --> 00:16:43.901
Just hung 'em.

224
00:16:45.204 --> 00:16:47.605
Yeah, I got a leave.

225
00:16:49.775 --> 00:16:51.442
No, you didn't.

226
00:16:58.651 --> 00:17:01.953
A good mama deserves
to see her son again.

227
00:17:01.955 --> 00:17:03.721
Hmm.

228
00:17:03.723 --> 00:17:06.057
She don't deserve
to see him like that.

229
00:17:07.693 --> 00:17:09.193
No.

230
00:17:10.662 --> 00:17:12.463
No, she don't.

231
00:17:15.567 --> 00:17:19.170
"If I go up
to the heavens, you are there.

232
00:17:19.172 --> 00:17:22.774
If I make my bed
in the depths, you are there.

233
00:17:23.509 --> 00:17:25.676
Even in the darkness,

234
00:17:25.678 --> 00:17:28.179
will not be dark to you.

235
00:17:28.181 --> 00:17:31.516
The night
will shine like day,

236
00:17:31.518 --> 00:17:35.753
the darkness
is as light to you.

237
00:17:35.755 --> 00:17:39.724
- It is you who hath
possessed my reign.

238
00:17:44.730 --> 00:17:50.701
And it is you who hath
covered me in...
My mother's womb."

239
00:17:50.703 --> 00:17:53.571
No, not my cloth!
I made that cloth!

240
00:17:53.573 --> 00:17:55.406
Ma'am. Ma'am.

241
00:17:55.408 --> 00:17:57.775
No! I made that cloth!
That's my loom! No! No!

242
00:17:57.777 --> 00:18:00.078
Ma'am. Ma'am, stop it.

243
00:18:00.080 --> 00:18:02.513
-That's for my baby!
-That's not what babies--

244
00:18:02.515 --> 00:18:05.016
-we're just taking
what's rightfully ours.
-Please make them stop.

245
00:18:05.018 --> 00:18:06.584
You got the court order?
Yes, but--

246
00:18:06.586 --> 00:18:08.753
what did
the court order say?
We take 10%.

247
00:18:08.755 --> 00:18:11.622
You're taking everything!
Why are you taking everything?
Stop it!

248
00:18:15.094 --> 00:18:17.728
They took everything
out the smokehouse.

249
00:18:17.730 --> 00:18:21.599
And that ain't tax.
They just ate it.
All that meal we ground.

250
00:18:21.601 --> 00:18:23.935
-We'll get you
more cornmeal.
-Of course we will.

251
00:18:23.937 --> 00:18:27.371
Well, that ain't the point.
I grew that corn.

252
00:18:33.312 --> 00:18:35.546
Everybody know
how to blow one of these?

253
00:18:35.548 --> 00:18:37.815
Yes, sir.

254
00:18:37.817 --> 00:18:42.587
Now, look here, they come back,
blow that as loud as you can
as soon as you hear 'em.

255
00:18:42.589 --> 00:18:45.389
-Yes, sir.
-I'm just
over this Ridge here.

256
00:18:45.391 --> 00:18:46.891
I'll be here soon.

257
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:50.228
You got
any more of those?

258
00:18:50.230 --> 00:18:52.230
Yeah, we need
some more.

259
00:19:04.843 --> 00:19:06.577
Gettin' hotter.

260
00:19:08.180 --> 00:19:10.414
Let me feel him.

261
00:19:11.683 --> 00:19:13.651
Come on, will.
Be a good boy.

262
00:19:16.089 --> 00:19:19.023
He<i> is</i> a good boy.
He's just got
a fever is all.

263
00:19:25.797 --> 00:19:27.431
He's burnin' up.

264
00:19:27.433 --> 00:19:29.867
Where you goin'?
To get a doctor.

265
00:19:29.869 --> 00:19:32.103
You can't go in town.
They'll arrest you.

266
00:19:32.105 --> 00:19:35.273
I'm gonna go to Sally's place,
have her fetch one.

267
00:19:35.275 --> 00:19:36.874
You're going
to that roadhouse?

268
00:20:02.067 --> 00:20:04.168
We ain't got
a doctor no more.

269
00:20:04.170 --> 00:20:06.070
Doc hacket
moved to Alabama,

270
00:20:06.072 --> 00:20:08.406
and prentiss
is off at the war.

271
00:20:08.408 --> 00:20:11.776
Look,
he's burnin' up, Sally,
and I can't go into town.

272
00:20:13.378 --> 00:20:15.413
Well, there's this
creole slave over at eakins.

273
00:20:15.415 --> 00:20:17.014
Kind of healer.

274
00:20:17.016 --> 00:20:19.417
I'll get George
to fetch her with a pass.

275
00:20:19.419 --> 00:20:21.552
Eakins? Plantation?

276
00:20:21.554 --> 00:20:24.355
She's not a field hand.
She's my house negro.

277
00:20:24.357 --> 00:20:26.490
Now, you better
get out of here too.

278
00:20:26.492 --> 00:20:28.926
Rebs come in here
all the time to get whiskey.

279
00:20:49.081 --> 00:20:51.048
They sent me with a pass.

280
00:20:51.050 --> 00:20:53.451
Yeah, yeah.
Come on.

281
00:20:53.453 --> 00:20:54.952
Right this way.

282
00:20:56.588 --> 00:21:00.191
He's burnin' up.
Can you help?

283
00:21:00.193 --> 00:21:02.059
I'll try.

284
00:21:02.061 --> 00:21:04.862
I need to boil
some water,
to make a tea.

285
00:21:04.864 --> 00:21:07.131
-I'll fetch you a bucket.
-I can fetch it.

286
00:21:07.133 --> 00:21:09.800
No, you stay here.
I'll fetch it for you.

287
00:21:20.713 --> 00:21:22.013
All right.

288
00:22:17.969 --> 00:22:21.005
Uh--

289
00:22:22.674 --> 00:22:24.175
he's all cool now.

290
00:22:24.177 --> 00:22:26.243
Probably gonna sleep
a while.

291
00:22:27.546 --> 00:22:29.914
He better?
He's fine.

292
00:22:33.352 --> 00:22:34.618
Oh.

293
00:22:35.454 --> 00:22:37.655
That's my boy.

294
00:22:37.657 --> 00:22:40.624
That's my boy.

295
00:22:40.626 --> 00:22:42.093
There you are.

296
00:22:45.564 --> 00:22:46.964
Hey.

297
00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:57.141
Thank you.

298
00:22:57.143 --> 00:22:59.377
Oh, don't have
to thank me.

299
00:22:59.379 --> 00:23:02.747
I got loaned
to you.
No, I do. I do.

300
00:23:04.750 --> 00:23:07.218
Look here,
i-- I ain't got no money,

301
00:23:07.220 --> 00:23:09.520
but I want you
to have this, all right?

302
00:23:09.522 --> 00:23:10.988
Th-that's gold.

303
00:23:12.090 --> 00:23:14.759
I can't take that.
Oh, yes, you can.

304
00:23:18.663 --> 00:23:21.999
But saving a life
ain't easy, yeah?

305
00:23:23.268 --> 00:23:24.835
And when you do,
it's something special.

306
00:23:26.738 --> 00:23:28.172
Thank you.

307
00:23:30.742 --> 00:23:32.476
Thank you.
That's kind.

308
00:23:36.114 --> 00:23:38.849
Now, here.
Here's your pass.

309
00:23:49.361 --> 00:23:52.229
<i> All rise.</i>
<i>Court is now in session.</i>

310
00:23:52.231 --> 00:23:55.232
<i>Case number 0646.</i>

311
00:23:55.234 --> 00:23:57.601
The state of Mississippi
v. Davis knight.

312
00:23:57.603 --> 00:24:01.305
That Davis knight
did knowingly and willfully

313
00:24:01.307 --> 00:24:04.875
and feloniously
violate Mississippi law

314
00:24:04.877 --> 00:24:09.113
by engaging in a marital union
with one junie Lee spradley,

315
00:24:09.115 --> 00:24:10.915
a white woman.

316
00:24:10.917 --> 00:24:13.884
That as the great-grandson
of Newton knight

317
00:24:13.886 --> 00:24:17.054
and a negro slave
known commonly as Rachel,

318
00:24:17.056 --> 00:24:20.458
he is of at least
one-eighth negro blood,

319
00:24:20.460 --> 00:24:23.627
and as such meets
the minimum standard

320
00:24:23.629 --> 00:24:27.698
to be considered
a colored person
in the state of Mississippi.

321
00:24:44.583 --> 00:24:46.050
What happened?

322
00:24:47.786 --> 00:24:50.588
They told me gather up
all the clothes and blankets.

323
00:24:50.590 --> 00:24:53.190
They'd be back for 'em
in an hour.

324
00:24:53.192 --> 00:24:56.660
They told me
round up the hogs
and put 'em in a pen.

325
00:24:56.662 --> 00:25:00.865
-Who did?
-The cavalry officer
and, uh, the--

326
00:25:00.867 --> 00:25:03.501
tax agent.
Yeah.

327
00:25:07.138 --> 00:25:09.840
They gonna take my hogs?

328
00:25:14.346 --> 00:25:16.680
No. No, they ain't.

329
00:25:16.682 --> 00:25:19.216
'Cause, uh, we got nothin'
for the winter.

330
00:25:19.218 --> 00:25:20.618
They ain't gonna
take your hogs.

331
00:25:22.354 --> 00:25:24.421
Girls, you know
how to shoot one of these?

332
00:25:25.390 --> 00:25:26.991
Hmm?

333
00:25:26.993 --> 00:25:30.394
It ain't real hard.
It's just loud
the first time.

334
00:25:30.396 --> 00:25:31.929
Come here to me,
darlin'.

335
00:25:33.331 --> 00:25:36.033
Here we go.
Put this here
on your right hand.

336
00:25:36.035 --> 00:25:38.502
Hold it right there
with your right hand.

337
00:25:38.504 --> 00:25:39.970
There you go.
You feel that?

338
00:25:39.972 --> 00:25:41.672
You feel that?

339
00:25:41.674 --> 00:25:43.874
How many guns you got
in the house, ma'am?

340
00:25:43.876 --> 00:25:45.976
Two. Three, with a pistol.

341
00:25:45.978 --> 00:25:48.045
Good. Good.

342
00:25:48.047 --> 00:25:50.247
See, now,
here's the trigger.

343
00:25:50.249 --> 00:25:53.751
You wanna fire it,
you just pull this back.
Two clicks, pull that trigger.

344
00:25:53.753 --> 00:25:54.752
Boom.

345
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:02.560
All right, here they come.

346
00:26:04.997 --> 00:26:06.397
You ready?

347
00:26:14.073 --> 00:26:16.106
Easy, girls.

348
00:26:43.268 --> 00:26:44.668
Well--

349
00:26:46.438 --> 00:26:48.872
what do we have here?

350
00:26:49.874 --> 00:26:50.874
Stop.

351
00:26:52.310 --> 00:26:55.012
Beg your pardon?
I said stop walking.

352
00:26:59.150 --> 00:27:01.385
It's quite an army
you got there.

353
00:27:02.454 --> 00:27:04.254
Three little girls
with guns.

354
00:27:04.256 --> 00:27:05.589
Mm-hmm.

355
00:27:05.591 --> 00:27:07.224
It's more like eight.

356
00:27:20.271 --> 00:27:22.172
How come you ain't
up north fightin'?

357
00:27:22.174 --> 00:27:24.008
How come you ain't?

358
00:27:25.810 --> 00:27:29.246
'Cause I'm responsible
for clothin' and feedin'
our loyal troops...

359
00:27:30.849 --> 00:27:32.182
And tracking down
deserters.

360
00:27:32.184 --> 00:27:34.818
Nah, don't do that.

361
00:27:37.622 --> 00:27:40.124
They gonna shoot me?

362
00:27:40.126 --> 00:27:42.393
All's they gotta do
is go like that.

363
00:27:45.130 --> 00:27:48.699
Last time I checked,
the gun don't care
who's pulling the trigger.

364
00:28:03.615 --> 00:28:05.149
We'll be back.

365
00:28:05.151 --> 00:28:06.283
Mm-hmm.

366
00:28:14.627 --> 00:28:17.227
Hold steady
on 'em, girls.

367
00:28:28.507 --> 00:28:30.040
Lower your guns.

368
00:28:32.043 --> 00:28:35.512
- There we go. There we go.
- Good job, girls. Good job.

369
00:28:35.514 --> 00:28:38.649
All right.
Listen. Y'all gonna
be fine, all right?

370
00:28:38.651 --> 00:28:40.584
It's me they
gonna be after.

371
00:28:40.586 --> 00:28:43.153
It's me they gonna
be after.

372
00:28:46.592 --> 00:28:49.326
They got
a slave patrol, newt.
Those are nigger dogs.

373
00:28:49.328 --> 00:28:52.029
It was three little girls,
you hear? Alone.

374
00:28:52.031 --> 00:28:53.897
Who ain't alone?

375
00:28:53.899 --> 00:28:55.733
You think
i ain't alone?

376
00:28:55.735 --> 00:28:59.503
Why you always got
to fight everyone else's
fight for them?

377
00:29:01.072 --> 00:29:04.241
I can't do this
anymore, newt. Can't.

378
00:29:09.247 --> 00:29:12.182
Buckshot,
fresh powder horn.

379
00:29:23.228 --> 00:29:25.262
Go! Go get him!

380
00:29:44.483 --> 00:29:46.283
Yah!

381
00:30:17.949 --> 00:30:20.117
Can't stay here.

382
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:21.985
First place
they're gonna come.

383
00:30:21.987 --> 00:30:26.256
I'll get George to take you
out in the swamp.

384
00:30:26.258 --> 00:30:28.592
There's some folks
out there that can help.

385
00:30:28.594 --> 00:30:31.528
Yeah. I dropped
my gun and powder.

386
00:30:31.530 --> 00:30:34.998
Sounds like you
had a good time.

387
00:30:35.000 --> 00:30:37.167
George?

388
00:30:38.269 --> 00:30:39.236
Ma'am?

389
00:30:40.471 --> 00:30:41.872
He's gonna need some food.

390
00:30:42.507 --> 00:30:44.107
Got it right here.

391
00:30:44.109 --> 00:30:47.544
-You know what to do?
-Mm-hmm.

392
00:30:47.546 --> 00:30:49.813
-Mista newt, sir?
-Mm-hmm.

393
00:30:49.815 --> 00:30:51.248
Whenever you ready.

394
00:30:52.884 --> 00:30:56.086
-To the swamp?
-Yes, sir.

395
00:32:02.353 --> 00:32:04.421
Newt, take your time.
There you go.

396
00:32:23.875 --> 00:32:25.342
Mista newt.

397
00:32:26.744 --> 00:32:29.446
Sorry. Look here.

398
00:32:33.384 --> 00:32:35.118
Here.

399
00:32:35.120 --> 00:32:36.620
Sit here.

400
00:32:37.755 --> 00:32:39.389
You'll like this better.

401
00:32:50.568 --> 00:32:52.469
They'll be here
for you soon.

402
00:32:53.905 --> 00:32:55.505
They?
Mm-hmm.

403
00:32:55.507 --> 00:32:58.342
<i> They</i> will be here
for you soon.

404
00:34:25.997 --> 00:34:27.230
Hello.

405
00:34:30.668 --> 00:34:32.035
I know you.

406
00:34:32.037 --> 00:34:34.738
Mm-hmm. I'm here
to show you through.

407
00:34:38.443 --> 00:34:39.676
Come on.

408
00:34:44.115 --> 00:34:47.417
You all right
to walk?
Yeah. Just slow.

409
00:34:58.863 --> 00:35:02.599
All right.
Now, walk where I walk.

410
00:35:02.601 --> 00:35:04.267
Out there is deep.

411
00:35:04.269 --> 00:35:06.636
Through here is shallow.

412
00:35:06.638 --> 00:35:08.338
Careful now.

413
00:35:36.467 --> 00:35:38.635
You got it.
Let's go.

414
00:35:54.186 --> 00:35:55.652
They gonna fix you.

415
00:36:02.293 --> 00:36:03.994
They runaways?

416
00:36:05.163 --> 00:36:06.663
Ain't you?

417
00:36:13.839 --> 00:36:15.605
Chewed up
pretty bad.

418
00:36:17.041 --> 00:36:18.675
Hound got him.

419
00:36:31.289 --> 00:36:32.722
That's some fresh tea.

420
00:36:41.732 --> 00:36:43.066
Mista newt.

421
00:36:53.411 --> 00:36:55.812
Yeah. Let me see that there.

422
00:36:58.349 --> 00:36:59.916
It ain't that bad.

423
00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:03.553
You must be
pretty brave then.

424
00:37:05.756 --> 00:37:07.224
Y'all must taste like we do.

425
00:37:08.759 --> 00:37:10.727
The way he latched onto you.

426
00:37:16.033 --> 00:37:17.767
Just hold still now.

427
00:37:19.170 --> 00:37:20.670
You'll be all right.

428
00:37:30.514 --> 00:37:32.249
That's it.

429
00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:24.067
Thank you, baby.

430
00:38:30.841 --> 00:38:33.076
<i> Mr. whittington,</i>
<i>in your opinion,</i>

431
00:38:33.078 --> 00:38:37.113
<i>Serena knight</i>
<i>was no longer a resident</i>
<i>of Jones county, Mississippi,</i>

432
00:38:37.115 --> 00:38:39.015
<i>by what date?</i>

433
00:38:39.017 --> 00:38:42.319
Well, roughly,
the end of 1863,
early 1864,

434
00:38:42.321 --> 00:38:44.020
when she moved to Georgia.

435
00:38:44.022 --> 00:38:47.324
Then if Newton knight
had a child
after the war--

436
00:38:47.326 --> 00:38:50.627
a child to whom
he gave his name--
that child could not have been--

437
00:38:50.629 --> 00:38:52.028
objection,
your honor.

438
00:38:52.030 --> 00:38:54.331
The witness
is a census expert,

439
00:38:54.333 --> 00:38:57.100
not an expert
on genealogy
or paternity--

440
00:38:57.102 --> 00:39:00.003
you don't have to be an expert
on much of nothin'

441
00:39:00.005 --> 00:39:04.274
to know it's hard for two people
to make a baby when they're
a thousand miles apart.

442
00:39:23.728 --> 00:39:25.862
How you feelin'?

443
00:39:25.864 --> 00:39:29.332
Better. Still a little sore,
but better.

444
00:39:29.334 --> 00:39:33.103
Yeah, well,
you'll be sore
for a little while.

445
00:39:36.073 --> 00:39:37.374
What's your name?

446
00:39:39.744 --> 00:39:41.811
Call me Moses.

447
00:39:42.980 --> 00:39:45.582
Your mama
name you that?
No, sir.

448
00:39:46.550 --> 00:39:47.984
Picked that for myself.

449
00:39:51.055 --> 00:39:52.622
Hey, you chose a good one.

450
00:40:03.234 --> 00:40:06.436
Why y'all do that?
Light in a tree
like that.

451
00:40:06.438 --> 00:40:07.971
Hmm.

452
00:40:10.174 --> 00:40:13.076
Hide the smoke.
Don't go up
in a straight line.

453
00:40:14.178 --> 00:40:17.080
Oh, yeah,
they're always lookin'.

454
00:40:17.082 --> 00:40:19.015
We expensive.

455
00:40:25.456 --> 00:40:27.257
How come
they houndin' you?

456
00:40:28.626 --> 00:40:30.460
'Cause I left.

457
00:40:31.695 --> 00:40:32.929
Deserted.

458
00:40:32.931 --> 00:40:34.931
How come?

459
00:40:37.368 --> 00:40:40.103
Oh, it ain't my fight,
you know.

460
00:40:40.105 --> 00:40:41.704
Don't own no slaves.

461
00:40:43.374 --> 00:40:46.109
Ain't gonna die
so they can get rich
sellin' their cotton.

462
00:40:46.111 --> 00:40:49.179
Hmm.
That's why we left too.

463
00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:03.660
Man.

464
00:41:03.662 --> 00:41:04.994
Can.

465
00:41:04.996 --> 00:41:06.296
Pan.

466
00:41:06.298 --> 00:41:08.731
Fan. Ran.

467
00:41:08.733 --> 00:41:10.633
Very good, girls.

468
00:41:10.635 --> 00:41:12.569
Mat. Hat.

469
00:41:12.571 --> 00:41:14.337
Sat.

470
00:41:14.339 --> 00:41:15.638
Cat.

471
00:41:15.640 --> 00:41:16.806
Rat.

472
00:41:16.808 --> 00:41:18.608
Now read this line again.

473
00:41:18.610 --> 00:41:20.643
Mat.

474
00:41:20.645 --> 00:41:21.945
Hat.

475
00:41:21.947 --> 00:41:23.513
Sat.

476
00:41:23.515 --> 00:41:25.014
Cat.

477
00:41:25.016 --> 00:41:26.683
Rat.

478
00:41:26.685 --> 00:41:28.151
What are you doing?

479
00:41:28.153 --> 00:41:30.086
Oh, I was just--

480
00:41:30.788 --> 00:41:32.322
don't go.

481
00:41:44.034 --> 00:41:45.568
Mm-hmm.

482
00:42:05.723 --> 00:42:07.190
Thank you.

483
00:42:09.293 --> 00:42:11.995
Ain't they got
a chicken Coop?

484
00:42:11.997 --> 00:42:14.197
Y'all ought
to be grateful.

485
00:42:14.199 --> 00:42:15.999
I can take back
that molasses.

486
00:42:16.001 --> 00:42:17.467
He didn't
mean it.

487
00:42:17.469 --> 00:42:20.203
Oh, molasses.
I thought this
was whiskey.

488
00:43:20.598 --> 00:43:22.131
Don't you get dizzy?

489
00:43:25.603 --> 00:43:27.637
Lyin' like that?

490
00:43:28.606 --> 00:43:30.139
Don't it make you dizzy?

491
00:43:31.408 --> 00:43:33.776
Oh, no.

492
00:43:33.778 --> 00:43:36.913
It don't bother me now.

493
00:43:36.915 --> 00:43:39.315
I guess you get used
to anything.

494
00:43:43.887 --> 00:43:45.989
No, you can't.

495
00:43:53.063 --> 00:43:54.197
Where's Texas?

496
00:43:54.999 --> 00:43:56.766
Hmm?

497
00:43:56.768 --> 00:43:58.301
Texas. How far is that?

498
00:43:58.303 --> 00:43:59.402
Texas?

499
00:44:02.072 --> 00:44:03.506
Well, it's pretty far.

500
00:44:04.475 --> 00:44:06.542
Why?
What's in Texas?

501
00:44:09.613 --> 00:44:13.082
My wife
and, uh, my little boy.

502
00:44:15.152 --> 00:44:16.386
When they--

503
00:44:18.155 --> 00:44:20.456
when they sold them,
i just--

504
00:44:20.458 --> 00:44:22.091
I just ran.

505
00:44:23.327 --> 00:44:25.595
I didn't think or nothin'.
I just--

506
00:44:26.797 --> 00:44:28.064
just took off.

507
00:44:32.202 --> 00:44:34.437
When they caught me
and whipped me,

508
00:44:34.439 --> 00:44:37.040
I just ran all over again.

509
00:44:39.476 --> 00:44:41.377
Then they put this on me.

510
00:44:43.981 --> 00:44:46.082
Don't make
no difference though.

511
00:44:47.117 --> 00:44:49.719
They can hitch me
to a wagon,

512
00:44:49.721 --> 00:44:52.622
and I'll pull
that damn thing
all the way to Texas.

513
00:45:14.078 --> 00:45:18.047
All right, look here.
I's a blacksmith.

514
00:45:18.049 --> 00:45:21.184
I mean, I was.
I'd shoe horses.

515
00:45:21.186 --> 00:45:24.654
Forged all kind of stuff--
yokes, bits, ax blades.

516
00:45:24.656 --> 00:45:27.757
I pound a lot of metal
in my life.

517
00:45:27.759 --> 00:45:29.492
If you want,

518
00:45:30.894 --> 00:45:32.795
I can get
that thing off you.

519
00:45:40.204 --> 00:45:42.105
No.

520
00:45:42.107 --> 00:45:43.940
You can't do that.

521
00:45:46.110 --> 00:45:48.311
All that bangin'
will bring the hounds for sure.

522
00:45:52.516 --> 00:45:54.016
How many hounds?

523
00:45:56.120 --> 00:45:58.121
And the men
that go along with 'em.

524
00:45:59.256 --> 00:46:01.023
How many men?

525
00:46:48.138 --> 00:46:49.739
You ready?

526
00:46:51.642 --> 00:46:53.176
I'm ready.

527
00:46:54.778 --> 00:46:57.413
-You ready?
-I'm ready.

528
00:47:20.638 --> 00:47:22.004
Hey!

529
00:47:26.176 --> 00:47:27.343
Oh, yeah!

530
00:47:33.450 --> 00:47:35.885
All right,
everybody in half-cock?

531
00:47:35.887 --> 00:47:37.186
Eli.

532
00:47:37.188 --> 00:47:39.488
Malachi.

533
00:47:39.490 --> 00:47:42.625
You ain't gonna have
a chance to reload,
so make your shot count.

534
00:47:42.627 --> 00:47:45.127
All right, here they come.
Go to full-cock.

535
00:47:47.397 --> 00:47:49.232
Wait for my word.

536
00:47:50.033 --> 00:47:52.134
Come on! Go!

537
00:47:52.136 --> 00:47:54.971
Come on! Go!

538
00:47:58.008 --> 00:47:59.275
Now!

539
00:48:16.026 --> 00:48:17.393
You know
what this tastes like?

540
00:48:18.228 --> 00:48:19.228
What?

541
00:48:20.430 --> 00:48:21.764
Dog.

542
00:48:30.575 --> 00:48:32.441
What's with them?

543
00:48:32.443 --> 00:48:34.277
Oh.

544
00:48:34.279 --> 00:48:38.948
Just nobody done nothin'
like that for them before.

545
00:48:44.955 --> 00:48:46.422
What's that say?

546
00:48:48.892 --> 00:48:51.193
Hmm.

547
00:48:51.195 --> 00:48:53.629
Right there.
What's that say?

548
00:48:55.365 --> 00:48:59.201
It says Remington company,
ilion, New York.

549
00:49:01.738 --> 00:49:03.172
Remington.

550
00:49:05.709 --> 00:49:07.710
R--
mm-hmm.

551
00:49:07.712 --> 00:49:09.211
E--

552
00:49:10.080 --> 00:49:12.315
m--
mm-hmm.

553
00:49:12.317 --> 00:49:13.749
I--

554
00:49:13.751 --> 00:49:15.151
left hand here.

555
00:49:15.153 --> 00:49:16.786
Okay? You feel it?
Mm-hmm.

556
00:49:16.788 --> 00:49:19.422
Put your left leg out.
Get braced for it.

557
00:49:19.424 --> 00:49:21.157
Now, you sit
right in there.

558
00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:24.226
Look right down this barrel.
You see that little bb
on the end?

559
00:49:24.228 --> 00:49:26.429
Yeah.
Huh?

560
00:49:26.431 --> 00:49:29.598
Whatever's
at the end of this bb,
that's what you're aimin' at.

561
00:49:29.600 --> 00:49:31.133
That's what you gonna hit.
All right?

562
00:49:34.739 --> 00:49:36.672
You're locked
and loaded.

563
00:49:36.674 --> 00:49:38.541
Whenever you ready,
get him.

564
00:49:44.147 --> 00:49:45.781
Did you get him?

565
00:49:45.783 --> 00:49:47.249
Get him again.

566
00:50:17.147 --> 00:50:19.048
Jasper, it's all right.
Come on out now.

567
00:50:19.050 --> 00:50:21.283
You ain't the only one.

568
00:50:54.151 --> 00:50:55.484
Will?

569
00:51:26.416 --> 00:51:27.683
Whoa.

570
00:51:46.970 --> 00:51:48.671
Ah-ah-ah.

571
00:51:50.307 --> 00:51:51.474
Raise your hand.

572
00:51:54.111 --> 00:51:56.378
That stuff
don't belong to you.

573
00:51:57.948 --> 00:52:01.951
Unhitch that wagon
and head off down the road.

574
00:52:01.953 --> 00:52:03.619
Who are you?

575
00:52:04.988 --> 00:52:07.423
The free men of Jones county?

576
00:52:07.425 --> 00:52:09.425
That's what he said.

577
00:52:09.427 --> 00:52:12.294
Well, I'm not gonna
concern myself

578
00:52:12.296 --> 00:52:16.665
with five or six deserters
who don't have the courage
to show their face.

579
00:52:16.667 --> 00:52:18.434
Sir--
you've got a quota to meet.

580
00:52:21.338 --> 00:52:22.805
You're dismissed.

581
00:52:39.157 --> 00:52:42.024
What do you say, sumrall?

582
00:52:42.026 --> 00:52:44.860
Well, there will be
no more dry firin'
for you.

583
00:53:06.349 --> 00:53:07.883
How you doin', Charles?

584
00:53:19.462 --> 00:53:21.063
That's good, son.

585
00:53:24.234 --> 00:53:26.235
Are you Newton knight?

586
00:53:26.237 --> 00:53:27.570
Every day.

587
00:53:27.572 --> 00:53:29.471
Where you from, boy?

588
00:53:29.473 --> 00:53:30.873
Ellisville.

589
00:53:30.875 --> 00:53:32.208
And where were you?

590
00:53:32.210 --> 00:53:33.642
Battle of corinth.

591
00:53:33.644 --> 00:53:35.911
Me too.

592
00:53:35.913 --> 00:53:38.147
My brother said you
made him a private.

593
00:53:38.149 --> 00:53:39.548
Did I?

594
00:53:40.383 --> 00:53:42.685
Can I be
a private too?

595
00:53:42.687 --> 00:53:46.322
Well, I don't know.
He older or younger than you?

596
00:53:46.324 --> 00:53:47.823
He's younger.

597
00:53:47.825 --> 00:53:49.658
He's only 13.

598
00:53:51.094 --> 00:53:53.062
I'll tell you what.

599
00:53:53.064 --> 00:53:55.831
You can be a corporal.
That's better than a private.

600
00:53:56.900 --> 00:53:57.900
Really?

601
00:53:59.069 --> 00:54:00.769
At ease, corporal.

602
00:55:57.320 --> 00:55:58.687
<i> I brought you something.</i>

603
00:56:01.191 --> 00:56:03.759
You got one.
Yeah.

604
00:56:12.202 --> 00:56:14.236
"Fi." "Figt."

605
00:56:14.238 --> 00:56:15.671
Fight.
Fight.

606
00:56:15.673 --> 00:56:16.538
Fight.
Fight.

607
00:56:16.540 --> 00:56:17.806
Fight.

608
00:56:17.808 --> 00:56:20.309
Sounds like
a f-y-t-e. Fight.
Fight.

609
00:56:20.311 --> 00:56:22.311
Fight.
But you got
a "g" right there.

610
00:56:22.313 --> 00:56:24.513
Mm-hmm. But it's
a silent "g" again.

611
00:56:24.515 --> 00:56:28.884
The "gh"
is always silent,
like "light," "right."

612
00:56:28.886 --> 00:56:31.186
Right.
Right. Slight.

613
00:56:31.188 --> 00:56:33.155
Slight.
Uh-- uh--

614
00:56:33.157 --> 00:56:37.259
but it's a "gh,"
and it's silent
when you use the "h."

615
00:56:37.261 --> 00:56:40.496
What a man grows
with his own two hands

616
00:56:40.498 --> 00:56:43.265
ought to belong
to him, yeah?
Yes, sir.

617
00:56:43.267 --> 00:56:44.700
How's that
scripture go, Jasper?

618
00:56:44.702 --> 00:56:47.069
This here's
from the book
of galatians.

619
00:56:47.071 --> 00:56:49.238
"Be not deceived.

620
00:56:49.240 --> 00:56:51.907
God is not mocked,

621
00:56:51.909 --> 00:56:55.377
for whatsoever a man soweth,
that shall he also reap."

622
00:56:55.379 --> 00:56:58.447
What you sow
you should reap.

623
00:56:58.449 --> 00:57:01.917
What you put in the ground,
you should take out
of the ground.

624
00:57:01.919 --> 00:57:04.253
Yeah.
You say they
takin' 10%.

625
00:57:04.255 --> 00:57:06.622
No, they leave us
10%, sir.
Leave 10%.

626
00:57:06.624 --> 00:57:09.892
You think they takin' 10%
from that plantation owner
over in natchez?

627
00:57:09.894 --> 00:57:11.260
No, sir.
Huh?

628
00:57:11.262 --> 00:57:13.896
-You think they
takin' 10% from him?
-No!

629
00:57:13.898 --> 00:57:17.800
How about this?
What do you say we go out there
and we pick it clean?

630
00:57:17.802 --> 00:57:21.236
There's 100 of us.
We pick it clean
in one day. We do that?

631
00:57:21.238 --> 00:57:22.771
Yeah!

632
00:57:22.773 --> 00:57:24.606
We pick it clean, hide it away.

633
00:57:24.608 --> 00:57:26.475
We divide it amongst
ourselves later on.

634
00:57:26.477 --> 00:57:29.077
Meanwhile, by the time
they get down here,
we done scattered.

635
00:57:29.079 --> 00:57:31.079
Yeah!

636
00:57:31.081 --> 00:57:32.915
- How's that sound to you?
- Yeah!

637
00:57:32.917 --> 00:57:35.384
Whose corn is it?
Whose corn is it?

638
00:57:35.386 --> 00:57:37.719
It's our corn!
Sounds like
perfect charity to me.

639
00:57:37.721 --> 00:57:39.221
Let's do it!
Yeah.

640
00:57:39.223 --> 00:57:41.390
Find a red cob,
get a shot of corn whiskey.

641
00:57:41.392 --> 00:57:42.624
Whoo!

642
00:58:44.721 --> 00:58:46.388
<i> Where is your corn?</i>

643
00:58:46.390 --> 00:58:48.023
Huh?

644
00:58:48.025 --> 00:58:50.959
Your corn.
Where's your corn?

645
00:58:50.961 --> 00:58:52.694
Field's picked clean.

646
00:58:54.297 --> 00:58:56.064
Oh, yeah. We picked it.

647
00:58:56.066 --> 00:58:57.900
So where is it?

648
00:59:47.784 --> 00:59:49.251
Good morning!

649
00:59:53.856 --> 00:59:55.824
Step on down, lieutenant.

650
00:59:59.228 --> 01:00:01.363
Hold on, all right?
Just--

651
01:00:01.365 --> 01:00:02.965
just hold on.

652
01:00:04.233 --> 01:00:06.134
Hey, I know you.

653
01:00:07.904 --> 01:00:10.439
Yeah, you the one that stole
our corn and our mule.

654
01:00:12.542 --> 01:00:14.309
Gentlemen.

655
01:00:17.146 --> 01:00:18.480
There it is.

656
01:00:19.816 --> 01:00:21.516
You like that sound?

657
01:00:22.652 --> 01:00:25.454
It's just some corn.
Yeah.

658
01:00:25.456 --> 01:00:27.656
You'd kill a man
for some corn?

659
01:00:27.658 --> 01:00:31.226
Well, he's asking
if I'd kill a man for some corn.

660
01:00:34.430 --> 01:00:35.897
I don't know.

661
01:00:41.571 --> 01:00:44.172
See, lieutenant,

662
01:00:44.174 --> 01:00:48.010
you steal our corn,
we got nothin' to feed the hogs.

663
01:00:48.012 --> 01:00:51.146
If we can't feed the hogs,
we got nothin' to put
in the smokehouse.

664
01:00:51.148 --> 01:00:54.683
We got nothin'
to put in the smokehouse,
we starve in the winter.

665
01:00:58.021 --> 01:00:59.721
That's murder, ain't it?

666
01:01:01.991 --> 01:01:04.926
You know what the penalty
for murder is,
don't you, lieutenant?

667
01:01:04.928 --> 01:01:06.528
Yeah.
Hmm?

668
01:01:06.530 --> 01:01:09.164
Yes, sir.
Yeah, you do.

669
01:01:16.606 --> 01:01:17.706
Thomas!
Yes, sir.

670
01:01:17.708 --> 01:01:19.608
Come here.

671
01:01:19.610 --> 01:01:22.010
What rank I make you?
Corporal, sir.

672
01:01:25.148 --> 01:01:27.115
You a lieutenant now.

673
01:01:29.186 --> 01:01:32.220
Let's get
that coat off.

674
01:01:32.222 --> 01:01:33.989
- Help him out, Thomas.
- Yeah!

675
01:01:33.991 --> 01:01:36.124
Whoo!

676
01:01:39.195 --> 01:01:41.496
Two hundred men?

677
01:01:41.498 --> 01:01:44.266
Maybe 100.
It's hard to say.

678
01:01:45.835 --> 01:01:51.306
They made us lie face down
in the dirt till they left.

679
01:01:55.978 --> 01:01:57.746
What is that?

680
01:02:20.336 --> 01:02:23.438
Newt. You sure this
is a good idea?

681
01:02:25.942 --> 01:02:27.776
That's a lot of smoke.

682
01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:33.381
Yeah.

683
01:02:33.383 --> 01:02:36.518
Cavalry can't get
into those swamps.

684
01:02:36.520 --> 01:02:39.254
And if we go in on foot,
we'll get ambushed.

685
01:02:39.256 --> 01:02:41.757
So you're scared of 'em?

686
01:02:44.861 --> 01:02:46.962
Only in there.

687
01:02:52.969 --> 01:02:54.503
Ah-ooo!

688
01:02:56.239 --> 01:02:57.038
Yeah!

689
01:03:02.546 --> 01:03:04.179
Stomp that out
with you.

690
01:03:10.219 --> 01:03:13.054
Get a box up here.
Throw a box up in here.

691
01:03:13.056 --> 01:03:15.791
Put those stakes
right down here, boys.
Right here. There we go.

692
01:03:15.793 --> 01:03:18.493
Get you a handkerchief.

693
01:03:18.495 --> 01:03:20.195
I got plenty
for everybody now.

694
01:03:21.564 --> 01:03:23.565
There we go.

695
01:03:23.567 --> 01:03:26.401
That fat, that's
where all the flavor is--
in that fat.

696
01:03:26.403 --> 01:03:28.170
Who wants that?
Get right here.

697
01:03:28.172 --> 01:03:29.738
It's falling
right off the bone.

698
01:03:29.740 --> 01:03:31.173
You don't even need
those knives.

699
01:04:02.605 --> 01:04:04.172
What are you doin', nigger?

700
01:04:05.775 --> 01:04:07.676
That ain't for you.
Put it back.

701
01:04:09.213 --> 01:04:11.046
Put it back, nigger.

702
01:04:16.118 --> 01:04:17.619
How you ain't?

703
01:04:17.621 --> 01:04:18.854
What?

704
01:04:21.490 --> 01:04:22.924
I said, how you ain't?

705
01:04:24.026 --> 01:04:25.927
How I ain't what?

706
01:04:27.330 --> 01:04:28.897
What he says, ward,

707
01:04:31.534 --> 01:04:33.235
is how you ain't a nigger.

708
01:04:34.704 --> 01:04:37.539
I mean, they just
pick cotton for 'em.

709
01:04:37.541 --> 01:04:38.807
You--

710
01:04:42.044 --> 01:04:44.479
you was willin'
to get killed for 'em.

711
01:04:56.592 --> 01:04:58.727
For lord's sake,
play somethin', will you, Lucas,

712
01:04:58.729 --> 01:05:00.595
before a whole new war
breaks out here.

713
01:05:37.066 --> 01:05:38.533
Colonel?

714
01:05:41.904 --> 01:05:43.705
You Sally?

715
01:05:43.707 --> 01:05:45.373
I am.
Hmm.

716
01:05:46.475 --> 01:05:48.610
You're a businesswoman.

717
01:05:48.612 --> 01:05:51.079
When was the last time
you saw any real whiskey?

718
01:05:51.081 --> 01:05:53.615
Irish whiskey.

719
01:05:53.617 --> 01:05:57.018
This... is from Boston.

720
01:05:59.255 --> 01:06:02.123
We can run anything
through that blockade,

721
01:06:02.125 --> 01:06:04.125
but the whiskey
always seems to get here first.

722
01:06:07.263 --> 01:06:10.799
I suppose the only
neutral parties in any war

723
01:06:10.801 --> 01:06:13.568
are the people
makin' money from it.

724
01:06:15.004 --> 01:06:17.906
Just wanna give you
the opportunity

725
01:06:17.908 --> 01:06:20.408
to make a little more.

726
01:06:20.410 --> 01:06:23.311
We need to get
a message to him.

727
01:06:25.147 --> 01:06:27.983
-Him?
-Stop. I don't have
the Patience for that.

728
01:06:27.985 --> 01:06:30.585
Tell your unionist friend

729
01:06:30.587 --> 01:06:33.288
that if he will disband
this little-- little, um--

730
01:06:33.290 --> 01:06:35.023
army?

731
01:06:36.659 --> 01:06:38.860
Company of theirs,

732
01:06:38.862 --> 01:06:41.429
we will rescind
the hanging notice

733
01:06:41.431 --> 01:06:44.099
and Grant him
a full pardon.

734
01:06:44.101 --> 01:06:46.568
All he has to do
is come out of that swamp.

735
01:06:48.137 --> 01:06:50.238
He can go right back
in the army.

736
01:06:55.644 --> 01:06:58.713
Two barrels of molasses,
a hundred pounds
of wheat flour,

737
01:06:58.715 --> 01:07:01.716
three barrels of whiskey...

738
01:07:01.718 --> 01:07:03.952
And five hundred dollars.

739
01:07:03.954 --> 01:07:06.187
Is that yankee currency?

740
01:07:06.189 --> 01:07:07.522
Huh.

741
01:07:10.126 --> 01:07:12.394
See what I can do.

742
01:07:43.592 --> 01:07:45.460
Take that back to her.

743
01:08:31.874 --> 01:08:34.442
Yeah, why would you
trust someone

744
01:08:34.444 --> 01:08:36.911
who just burned
your farm, son?

745
01:08:36.913 --> 01:08:40.215
I'm not sayin'
i trust 'em.

746
01:08:41.784 --> 01:08:43.351
I'm just sayin'.

747
01:08:44.954 --> 01:08:46.788
That you want it to stop?

748
01:08:51.294 --> 01:08:53.228
Yeah, so do I.

749
01:08:58.734 --> 01:09:03.304
Thomas, I don't think
that, uh, turnin' ourselves in
is gonna stop 'em.

750
01:09:05.774 --> 01:09:08.910
I know you lost
your farm, and i--

751
01:09:08.912 --> 01:09:11.246
I know your mama's hurtin'.

752
01:09:12.848 --> 01:09:15.750
All right?
But that does not make
these men your friends.

753
01:09:18.187 --> 01:09:19.754
We're your friends.

754
01:09:20.956 --> 01:09:23.491
Right here.
Look out there.

755
01:09:25.694 --> 01:09:27.362
That's your friend.

756
01:09:42.878 --> 01:09:44.579
Evenin', Jesse.

757
01:09:58.294 --> 01:09:59.627
Hey.

758
01:10:01.030 --> 01:10:03.431
Uh...
I brought you
some biscuits.

759
01:10:07.870 --> 01:10:10.905
Smell fresh.

760
01:10:10.907 --> 01:10:12.674
They is.

761
01:10:12.676 --> 01:10:13.975
Thank you.

762
01:10:20.583 --> 01:10:22.083
I better go.

763
01:10:30.359 --> 01:10:31.659
What's wrong?

764
01:10:38.901 --> 01:10:40.501
- What's wrong?

765
01:10:57.186 --> 01:10:59.821
What happened? Hmm?

766
01:11:04.260 --> 01:11:05.693
What happened?

767
01:11:09.431 --> 01:11:10.865
I wouldn't let him.

768
01:11:13.469 --> 01:11:16.170
All the other times,
i just let him.

769
01:11:17.873 --> 01:11:19.807
'Cause what can I do?

770
01:11:22.144 --> 01:11:23.611
It's just...

771
01:11:25.247 --> 01:11:26.547
Easier.

772
01:11:29.752 --> 01:11:31.986
And I tell myself
I'm somewhere else

773
01:11:31.988 --> 01:11:34.055
and it's not like
it's happening to me.

774
01:11:39.461 --> 01:11:42.263
But this time, I couldn't.

775
01:11:42.265 --> 01:11:43.898
Mm-hmm.

776
01:11:43.900 --> 01:11:45.500
I couldn't anymore.

777
01:11:47.436 --> 01:11:49.437
And I screamed--
mmm.

778
01:11:49.439 --> 01:11:51.072
And I screamed.

779
01:11:53.242 --> 01:11:54.509
Look, look, look.

780
01:11:56.178 --> 01:11:58.079
I can read this now.

781
01:12:02.585 --> 01:12:04.018
"In the beginning...

782
01:12:05.688 --> 01:12:07.789
God...

783
01:12:07.791 --> 01:12:09.257
Created...

784
01:12:10.526 --> 01:12:12.226
The heaven...

785
01:12:13.262 --> 01:12:14.729
And the earth.

786
01:12:16.432 --> 01:12:18.066
And god said,

787
01:12:19.868 --> 01:12:21.436
let there be light."

788
01:12:24.606 --> 01:12:26.207
Yeah.

789
01:13:39.681 --> 01:13:41.382
All right. Look here.

790
01:13:41.384 --> 01:13:45.052
There's a full troop transport
headed this way out of meridian.

791
01:13:45.054 --> 01:13:47.088
Got 50 soldiers.

792
01:13:47.090 --> 01:13:48.689
It's 15 cars long.

793
01:13:50.058 --> 01:13:52.260
We gonna blow the tracks
with powder, hear?

794
01:13:52.262 --> 01:13:54.328
It's a train?

795
01:13:55.798 --> 01:13:57.799
Yeah, it's a train.

796
01:13:57.801 --> 01:14:01.569
And guns, ammo and artillery.

797
01:14:01.571 --> 01:14:03.704
What's that got to do
with my farm?

798
01:14:06.809 --> 01:14:09.310
It has everything to do
with your farm, ward.

799
01:14:09.312 --> 01:14:12.213
-How?
-'Cause they're the folks
that burned it.

800
01:14:12.215 --> 01:14:14.715
So we fightin'
for the union now?

801
01:14:16.118 --> 01:14:17.952
No, we're not fightin'
for the union,

802
01:14:17.954 --> 01:14:19.954
but we are fightin'
the same people they are.

803
01:14:19.956 --> 01:14:21.355
For different reasons.

804
01:14:22.958 --> 01:14:25.626
These folks got plantations
from here to the Mississippi.

805
01:14:25.628 --> 01:14:28.429
I know.
They're rich. So what?

806
01:14:28.431 --> 01:14:31.599
Are we gonna start killin'
rich people?

807
01:14:31.601 --> 01:14:35.069
It's why they're rich, ward.
Don't you understand?

808
01:14:36.505 --> 01:14:38.473
You, me, all of us.

809
01:14:39.842 --> 01:14:42.410
We're all out there dying
so they can stay rich.

810
01:14:42.412 --> 01:14:44.579
You own any slaves, ward?

811
01:14:46.248 --> 01:14:48.850
You got any negroes
to fight for?

812
01:14:48.852 --> 01:14:51.919
No. But it sure looks
like you do.

813
01:15:01.196 --> 01:15:03.064
That's fine, ward.

814
01:15:05.367 --> 01:15:08.002
You leave any time you want.

815
01:15:08.004 --> 01:15:10.938
Save your farms.
All you got to do
is lay down your arms.

816
01:15:12.007 --> 01:15:13.608
You ain't being disloyal.

817
01:15:14.977 --> 01:15:16.611
You're just being smart.

818
01:15:17.846 --> 01:15:20.114
Your mama
don't need you dead.

819
01:15:21.350 --> 01:15:23.784
She's done lost
her farm.

820
01:15:23.786 --> 01:15:25.853
She don't need to lose
her boys too.

821
01:15:28.056 --> 01:15:30.658
You're sure
he said all of 'em?

822
01:15:30.660 --> 01:15:33.027
Just said they
wanted to come out, sir.

823
01:15:33.029 --> 01:15:34.662
Didn't say how many.

824
01:15:39.968 --> 01:15:41.302
They're coming out.

825
01:15:42.371 --> 01:15:43.804
They're coming out.

826
01:15:49.011 --> 01:15:50.478
Is that him?

827
01:15:53.582 --> 01:15:55.216
Can't tell.

828
01:15:55.218 --> 01:15:56.651
How many are there?

829
01:15:57.586 --> 01:15:59.554
Hard to say.

830
01:15:59.556 --> 01:16:01.155
Four or five maybe.

831
01:16:06.828 --> 01:16:10.298
Sweet Jesus. It's boys.

832
01:16:12.901 --> 01:16:15.369
Forty soldiers

833
01:16:15.371 --> 01:16:18.172
capture a bunch of boys
with broken shotguns.

834
01:16:24.914 --> 01:16:26.447
Just hang 'em.

835
01:17:58.373 --> 01:18:00.274
These boys, these--

836
01:18:02.611 --> 01:18:04.111
these young men.

837
01:18:09.551 --> 01:18:11.218
They was your friends.

838
01:18:12.721 --> 01:18:14.255
Your cousins.

839
01:18:16.324 --> 01:18:18.225
Your brothers and your kin.

840
01:18:24.366 --> 01:18:26.801
But to those soldiers
who didn't know 'em,

841
01:18:32.841 --> 01:18:34.442
they was just niggers.

842
01:18:38.246 --> 01:18:40.481
They was just
somebody else's nigger.

843
01:18:48.390 --> 01:18:51.792
So somehow, someway
or sometime, everybody...

844
01:18:53.995 --> 01:18:56.163
Is just somebody else's nigger.

845
01:19:03.505 --> 01:19:06.407
Mr. Moses, are you a nigger?

846
01:19:08.009 --> 01:19:09.710
No, I'm not.

847
01:19:09.712 --> 01:19:11.612
Then what are you?

848
01:19:13.215 --> 01:19:14.482
Freeman, captain.

849
01:19:15.951 --> 01:19:17.418
Why's that?

850
01:19:23.725 --> 01:19:25.693
'Cause you cannot own
a child of god.

851
01:19:31.466 --> 01:19:33.367
No, you cannot, can you?

852
01:19:36.271 --> 01:19:39.573
You can own a horse,
you can own a mule

853
01:19:39.575 --> 01:19:41.675
or cow or an ox, but you--

854
01:19:44.613 --> 01:19:46.881
you cannot own a child of god.

855
01:20:20.649 --> 01:20:22.116
See anything?

856
01:20:22.118 --> 01:20:23.584
No.

857
01:20:26.188 --> 01:20:28.989
He won't miss this though.

858
01:20:28.991 --> 01:20:31.091
He's out there.

859
01:20:32.260 --> 01:20:33.727
Somewhere.

860
01:22:05.620 --> 01:22:07.087
Tell 'em to move up!

861
01:22:09.124 --> 01:22:11.091
Lead with your left flank!

862
01:22:17.733 --> 01:22:19.767
Damn it!

863
01:22:26.775 --> 01:22:28.442
Aaah!

864
01:22:30.779 --> 01:22:32.112
Aaah!

865
01:23:59.567 --> 01:24:02.236
Newton, i--

866
01:24:04.873 --> 01:24:06.306
I knew your daddy.

867
01:24:57.725 --> 01:25:00.594
- Let's go.

868
01:25:04.133 --> 01:25:05.632
Fire!

869
01:25:08.203 --> 01:25:10.871
- Get up here up front. Reload.
- We need more powder!

870
01:25:12.707 --> 01:25:14.942
Reloading, boys!
Don't break your fire!
Keep punching, boys!

871
01:25:14.944 --> 01:25:16.944
Fire!

872
01:25:16.946 --> 01:25:18.445
Up here! Up here!

873
01:25:18.447 --> 01:25:19.613
Aaah!

874
01:25:19.615 --> 01:25:21.115
Stay down.

875
01:25:26.621 --> 01:25:29.389
Cover the Cannon!
Cannon in position!

876
01:25:29.391 --> 01:25:31.291
Fire! Powder!

877
01:25:38.066 --> 01:25:39.366
Powder!

878
01:25:43.938 --> 01:25:45.639
Move! Move!

879
01:25:45.641 --> 01:25:46.740
Okay?
Cover fire!

880
01:25:50.245 --> 01:25:51.912
Clear!

881
01:25:55.450 --> 01:25:56.783
Go, go, go!

882
01:26:12.367 --> 01:26:14.635
-Ho! Ho!
-Keep 'em up.

883
01:26:14.637 --> 01:26:18.172
- Hands up!
Ah-ah-ah-ah. Oh, up.

884
01:26:18.174 --> 01:26:20.507
There we go.

885
01:26:20.509 --> 01:26:22.843
- Quickly, children!
- Hurry, Samantha!

886
01:26:38.226 --> 01:26:40.227
Whoo!
Yeah!

887
01:26:40.229 --> 01:26:41.728
Whoo!

888
01:27:09.691 --> 01:27:11.425
How many?

889
01:27:11.427 --> 01:27:13.527
This group there's 40.

890
01:27:13.529 --> 01:27:15.395
Got another 20
at kerman's farm.

891
01:27:17.532 --> 01:27:19.733
Only 12 of us
at that railhead at paulding.

892
01:27:20.868 --> 01:27:23.070
Well, that's light.
Mm-hmm.

893
01:27:25.573 --> 01:27:27.441
Could send Jeb
and his brothers.

894
01:27:28.509 --> 01:27:30.377
Yeah, let's do that.

895
01:27:35.216 --> 01:27:37.784
- All right, hold on.
- All right, all right.

896
01:27:39.187 --> 01:27:40.921
Whoo!

897
01:27:42.257 --> 01:27:43.690
Here you go.

898
01:27:50.732 --> 01:27:52.899
I can go up there.

899
01:27:52.901 --> 01:27:54.935
How long will it take
to get there?

900
01:27:54.937 --> 01:27:58.105
Three, four days,
if there's no patrols.

901
01:27:58.973 --> 01:28:00.641
All right.

902
01:28:00.643 --> 01:28:02.876
Tell sherman
that we hold everything

903
01:28:02.878 --> 01:28:05.245
from the pascagoula
to the Alabama border.

904
01:28:05.247 --> 01:28:07.281
Tell him we need
some artillery.

905
01:28:07.283 --> 01:28:11.785
Twenty pieces: 15 cannons,
five mortars would be fine.

906
01:28:11.787 --> 01:28:14.388
Rifles.
Rifles we need.
Make it 300.

907
01:28:14.390 --> 01:28:18.292
We also need
some cavalrymen. Fifty.
Fifty men, that's all.

908
01:28:18.294 --> 01:28:20.794
-He can spare that easily.
-Yeah, he can.

909
01:28:20.796 --> 01:28:24.398
He sends this, we can keep
this place forever, men.

910
01:29:22.323 --> 01:29:23.790
Feathers.

911
01:30:02.597 --> 01:30:05.332
Shh. It's okay. It's okay.

912
01:30:28.523 --> 01:30:29.856
Mmm.

913
01:30:35.363 --> 01:30:38.098
They control everything
from meridian to the pascagoula.

914
01:30:38.100 --> 01:30:40.233
They've seized ellisville,

915
01:30:40.235 --> 01:30:44.438
hold all of Jones, Jasper, Perry
and half of Smith counties.

916
01:30:44.440 --> 01:30:49.276
They've got 250 men,
maybe even runaway slaves who,

917
01:30:49.278 --> 01:30:51.978
frankly, sir,
don't have much to lose.

918
01:31:21.476 --> 01:31:22.876
<i>That's all they sent?</i>

919
01:31:25.179 --> 01:31:28.315
-You told 'em
we took three counties?
-Of course.

920
01:31:30.152 --> 01:31:31.918
Hundred rifles.

921
01:31:31.920 --> 01:31:34.187
They say it's not "strategic."

922
01:31:34.189 --> 01:31:39.025
Hmm.
-Sherman wonders
if we're a "real" company.

923
01:31:39.027 --> 01:31:41.161
Real company?

924
01:31:41.163 --> 01:31:44.764
You know, it ain't exactly
what they're used to, newt.

925
01:31:44.766 --> 01:31:46.600
A bunch of freed slaves,
farmers.

926
01:31:46.602 --> 01:31:49.269
Holdin' down most of
southeast Mississippi.
Yeah.

927
01:31:49.271 --> 01:31:50.704
Took three counties.

928
01:31:52.106 --> 01:31:54.040
Beat an entire division.
We did.

929
01:31:54.042 --> 01:31:55.942
Mm-hmm.
They don't care.

930
01:32:02.149 --> 01:32:07.053
Well, that's fine.
We're back in the swamp.

931
01:32:07.055 --> 01:32:10.490
They can't get their horses
in there, no matter how many
they bring.

932
01:32:10.492 --> 01:32:12.726
Take the boys back in.
We'll wait till lowry--

933
01:32:12.728 --> 01:32:15.395
some of the boys
don't wanna go, newt.

934
01:32:16.831 --> 01:32:18.632
With that much cavalry
coming down here,

935
01:32:18.634 --> 01:32:21.134
they're not gonna have farms
left to protect.

936
01:32:21.136 --> 01:32:23.169
There's plenty
left to fight for, will.

937
01:32:23.171 --> 01:32:25.338
Sure there is.
There sure is.

938
01:32:25.340 --> 01:32:27.407
But they can get
to mobile from here

939
01:32:27.409 --> 01:32:29.476
and get out of here
before lowry shows up.

940
01:32:29.478 --> 01:32:30.810
Hmm.

941
01:32:38.052 --> 01:32:39.753
And that's
what they want?

942
01:32:40.855 --> 01:32:42.255
They want
your permission.

943
01:32:44.058 --> 01:32:45.625
And what do you want, will?

944
01:32:50.498 --> 01:32:52.399
I want to stay here and fight.

945
01:32:54.235 --> 01:32:55.735
But.

946
01:32:55.737 --> 01:32:57.137
But they're boys,
newt.

947
01:32:58.239 --> 01:33:01.241
Lots of 'em.
Might as well be.

948
01:33:02.577 --> 01:33:06.613
They need somebody
to get 'em through.

949
01:33:06.615 --> 01:33:08.515
So you want my permission too.

950
01:33:10.117 --> 01:33:11.918
I guess I do. Yeah.

951
01:33:14.255 --> 01:33:15.689
Take this.

952
01:33:15.691 --> 01:33:17.357
Pretty lucky.

953
01:33:17.359 --> 01:33:19.426
-No, that's your best gun.
-I know.

954
01:33:22.296 --> 01:33:24.164
I don't want you
to stop fighting.

955
01:33:49.056 --> 01:33:50.991
All right, everybody,
listen up here.

956
01:33:50.993 --> 01:33:53.827
Shh.

957
01:33:53.829 --> 01:33:56.496
I know y'all been wondering
what it is we gonna do next.

958
01:33:57.832 --> 01:34:00.333
I want y'all to know
that you all fought bravely.

959
01:34:01.502 --> 01:34:03.637
That flag right there
tells the tale.

960
01:34:07.075 --> 01:34:09.509
Right now, what we do know
is that they're sending

961
01:34:09.511 --> 01:34:11.711
a whole regiment of cavalry
this way.

962
01:34:12.947 --> 01:34:14.347
That's a hundred horses.

963
01:34:15.916 --> 01:34:18.418
We can't fight that,
least not in the open anyhow.

964
01:34:19.954 --> 01:34:23.089
We was hoping to get some help
from general sherman,

965
01:34:24.592 --> 01:34:26.326
but it looks like
that ain't coming either.

966
01:34:27.695 --> 01:34:29.396
Says he won't recognize us.

967
01:34:34.301 --> 01:34:39.272
So it seems that we don't got
no country on either side.

968
01:34:43.344 --> 01:34:44.778
And that's all right.

969
01:34:47.314 --> 01:34:51.818
I guess we're kind of
our own country.
That's right, newt.

970
01:34:51.820 --> 01:34:55.221
If we're honest about it,
hadn't we been our own country
for a long time?

971
01:34:55.223 --> 01:34:57.190
-Yes, sir.
-That's true.

972
01:34:58.526 --> 01:35:00.860
Now, Jasper here, he, uh,

973
01:35:00.862 --> 01:35:02.996
obviously a lot more learned
than I am.

974
01:35:02.998 --> 01:35:05.331
He was saying that, uh,

975
01:35:05.333 --> 01:35:08.168
if in fact
we are our own country,

976
01:35:08.170 --> 01:35:11.237
well then, by god, we ought to
stand up and declare it.

977
01:35:11.239 --> 01:35:12.906
Yeah.
Yes, sir.

978
01:35:12.908 --> 01:35:15.141
Even if they push us
back in the swamps,

979
01:35:15.143 --> 01:35:17.377
if we're willing to die
for something,

980
01:35:17.379 --> 01:35:20.480
we sure ought to be able
to say what it is out loud.

981
01:35:20.482 --> 01:35:22.148
-Yeah.
-Absolutely.

982
01:35:24.485 --> 01:35:26.586
Jasper, let me see
that paper there.

983
01:35:28.756 --> 01:35:30.390
From this day forward,

984
01:35:32.426 --> 01:35:35.328
"we declare the land north
of the pascagoula swamps,

985
01:35:35.330 --> 01:35:38.531
south of enterprise
and east of the Pearl river
to the Alabama border

986
01:35:38.533 --> 01:35:40.767
to be a free state of Jones."

987
01:35:40.769 --> 01:35:42.569
Yeah.

988
01:35:43.904 --> 01:35:46.072
"And as such,

989
01:35:46.074 --> 01:35:48.842
we do hereby proclaim

990
01:35:48.844 --> 01:35:50.844
and affirm
the following principles.

991
01:35:52.780 --> 01:35:55.281
Number one:

992
01:35:55.283 --> 01:35:58.184
No man oughta stay poor
so another man can get rich."

993
01:36:00.789 --> 01:36:03.056
"Number two:

994
01:36:03.058 --> 01:36:07.026
No man oughta tell another man
what he's gotta live for
or what he's gotta die for."

995
01:36:07.028 --> 01:36:10.130
Nope.

996
01:36:10.132 --> 01:36:12.565
"Number three:

997
01:36:12.567 --> 01:36:15.301
What you put in the ground

998
01:36:15.303 --> 01:36:19.806
is yours to tend and harvest,
and ain't no man oughta be able
to take that away from you."

999
01:36:21.910 --> 01:36:23.042
Number four:

1000
01:36:28.916 --> 01:36:31.985
"Every man's a man."
Mm-hmm.

1001
01:36:31.987 --> 01:36:33.953
If you can walk on two legs,

1002
01:36:35.089 --> 01:36:36.656
you're a man.
Right.

1003
01:36:39.960 --> 01:36:41.895
It's as simple as that.

1004
01:37:53.668 --> 01:37:56.803
Lord.

1005
01:38:34.842 --> 01:38:37.043
- But we won.
- I know.

1006
01:38:37.045 --> 01:38:39.545
And they said--
general sherman, he said--

1007
01:38:39.547 --> 01:38:42.515
-i know what they said.
-He said 40 acres and a mule

1008
01:38:42.517 --> 01:38:44.951
for every Freedman
and they families.

1009
01:38:44.953 --> 01:38:46.519
They took that back.

1010
01:38:46.521 --> 01:38:48.354
Who did?
President did.

1011
01:38:48.356 --> 01:38:50.890
There's a new president now
name of Johnson.

1012
01:38:50.892 --> 01:38:52.191
Johnson.

1013
01:38:55.562 --> 01:38:58.431
So who gets
all of this?
He does.

1014
01:38:58.433 --> 01:39:01.034
-Eakins.
-Eakins?

1015
01:39:01.036 --> 01:39:02.802
Eakins. He gets to come back?

1016
01:39:02.804 --> 01:39:06.205
-Yeah, if he takes an oath.
-What kind of oath?

1017
01:39:06.207 --> 01:39:08.374
Swearing to be loyal
to the union.

1018
01:39:08.376 --> 01:39:10.476
Ain't no union, man.

1019
01:39:10.478 --> 01:39:13.146
-No?
-I can take an oath
swearing to be a canary.

1020
01:39:13.148 --> 01:39:15.481
-It don't mean I can fly.
-That's it.

1021
01:39:15.483 --> 01:39:18.051
I don't understand.
Are we free or we ain't free?

1022
01:39:18.053 --> 01:39:19.819
You understand.

1023
01:39:19.821 --> 01:39:22.055
We're free
and we ain't free.

1024
01:39:23.891 --> 01:39:26.292
Place your left hand
on the Bible
and raise your right.

1025
01:39:27.561 --> 01:39:29.095
I, James eakins,

1026
01:39:29.097 --> 01:39:31.230
I, James eakins,

1027
01:39:31.232 --> 01:39:34.500
<i> do solemnly swear</i>
<i> in the presence</i>
<i> of almighty god...</i>

1028
01:39:34.502 --> 01:39:38.071
Do solemnly swear
in the presence
of almighty god...

1029
01:39:38.073 --> 01:39:41.174
<i> That I will henceforth</i>
<i> faithfully support, protect</i>

1030
01:39:41.176 --> 01:39:43.743
<i> and defend</i>
<i> the constitution</i>
<i> of the United States...</i>

1031
01:39:43.745 --> 01:39:47.113
That I will henceforth
faithfully support, protect

1032
01:39:47.115 --> 01:39:50.683
and defend the constitution
of the United States...

1033
01:39:50.685 --> 01:39:52.752
<i> And the union</i>
<i> of the states thereunder.</i>

1034
01:39:53.988 --> 01:39:56.155
<i>And the union</i>
<i>of the states thereunder.</i>

1035
01:39:57.191 --> 01:39:59.359
<i> So help me god.</i>

1036
01:39:59.361 --> 01:40:01.961
So help me god.

1037
01:40:01.963 --> 01:40:04.263
Welcome back.
Thank you.

1038
01:40:10.004 --> 01:40:12.538
Hmm. I ain't leavin'.

1039
01:40:12.540 --> 01:40:14.774
We got to.

1040
01:40:14.776 --> 01:40:16.776
You got to leave too.

1041
01:40:16.778 --> 01:40:19.212
-Why?
-'Cause the winds
is shiftin'.

1042
01:40:19.214 --> 01:40:22.215
I don't care.
And you can't fight it
this time.

1043
01:40:22.217 --> 01:40:25.118
Where we gonna go?
Huh? Go where?

1044
01:40:27.821 --> 01:40:29.856
Soso.
Soso?

1045
01:40:29.858 --> 01:40:32.725
You sell this place,
we could buy all of soso.

1046
01:40:32.727 --> 01:40:36.295
Yeah, and grow what, huh?
Can't get nothin'
in that ground up there.

1047
01:40:36.297 --> 01:40:39.799
You grew crops in a swamp.

1048
01:40:39.801 --> 01:40:41.901
Yeah.
I think you can coax

1049
01:40:41.903 --> 01:40:43.770
a little corn out of soso.

1050
01:41:04.826 --> 01:41:06.826
All the way through?
All the way.

1051
01:41:22.176 --> 01:41:26.846
Rachel, students:
Man, pan, tan,

1052
01:41:26.848 --> 01:41:29.715
ran, fan.

1053
01:41:29.717 --> 01:41:33.052
Very good.
Second row, c-o-b is...

1054
01:41:33.054 --> 01:41:34.687
Rachel, students:
Cob,

1055
01:41:34.689 --> 01:41:38.291
job, mob, rob.

1056
01:41:45.299 --> 01:41:46.432
Chester.

1057
01:41:48.402 --> 01:41:50.036
Need some bailin' wire.

1058
01:41:50.038 --> 01:41:51.737
That's a cent
a foot.

1059
01:41:51.739 --> 01:41:53.439
I'll take 60 feet.

1060
01:41:55.542 --> 01:41:57.710
Fixing a fence?

1061
01:41:57.712 --> 01:41:59.879
Yeah, that's what
bailing wire's for.

1062
01:42:01.982 --> 01:42:04.350
You up in soso,
right?
Mm-hmm.

1063
01:42:07.121 --> 01:42:09.789
Thought it was just
a bunch of niggers up there,

1064
01:42:10.991 --> 01:42:12.558
cap'n newt.

1065
01:42:15.095 --> 01:42:16.562
No, Chester.

1066
01:42:19.299 --> 01:42:21.734
Ain't no niggers
up there at all.

1067
01:42:55.435 --> 01:42:57.336
<i>Got nowhere to go.</i>

1068
01:43:01.008 --> 01:43:03.442
They said
you was here now
making a new farm.

1069
01:43:03.444 --> 01:43:04.944
Yeah, I am.

1070
01:43:07.481 --> 01:43:09.415
I'm sorry. I just--

1071
01:43:11.552 --> 01:43:13.186
I don't know where to go.

1072
01:43:14.121 --> 01:43:16.522
Rebs burned my first farm.

1073
01:43:16.524 --> 01:43:18.124
Sherman burned my second.

1074
01:43:19.226 --> 01:43:21.127
Guess they agree on that.

1075
01:43:22.229 --> 01:43:23.863
Yeah, they do.

1076
01:43:25.899 --> 01:43:28.401
We walked all the way
from Birmingham.

1077
01:43:31.305 --> 01:43:35.041
He's seen things
nobody should see.

1078
01:43:38.812 --> 01:43:40.613
You stay here.

1079
01:43:42.249 --> 01:43:43.983
Here.

1080
01:43:45.185 --> 01:43:47.486
I know y'all
have your own home now.

1081
01:43:47.488 --> 01:43:49.388
No, that's fine.
You stay here with us.

1082
01:43:51.191 --> 01:43:54.060
There's a little shack
on the other side of the farm.

1083
01:43:55.596 --> 01:43:57.663
We could fix it for you.
Mm-hmm.

1084
01:43:57.665 --> 01:43:59.999
- Y'all don't have to do that.
- No, we do.

1085
01:44:01.868 --> 01:44:03.502
You're kin.

1086
01:44:08.575 --> 01:44:10.643
Hey.

1087
01:44:13.247 --> 01:44:17.250
What you say I teach you
how to fish? Yeah?

1088
01:44:21.588 --> 01:44:23.356
You know I'm your pa?

1089
01:44:24.391 --> 01:44:25.625
Yeah, I know.

1090
01:44:28.528 --> 01:44:31.130
Here.
Got something for you.

1091
01:44:31.132 --> 01:44:33.599
S-s-shoop.
Look at that.

1092
01:44:34.801 --> 01:44:36.636
That's yours now,
all right?

1093
01:44:36.638 --> 01:44:38.537
Take good care of that.

1094
01:44:42.242 --> 01:44:45.544
Oh, let's not
start cryin' now, huh?

1095
01:44:45.546 --> 01:44:47.813
Ain't that bad
of a house.

1096
01:44:47.815 --> 01:44:51.050
Y'all come on
inside.

1097
01:44:51.052 --> 01:44:51.050
Come on.

1098
01:44:55.389 --> 01:44:58.658
<i> The prosecution</i>
<i>would lead you to believe--</i>
go on in now.

1099
01:44:58.660 --> 01:45:03.162
<i>That when Serena knight</i>
<i>left Jones county</i>
<i>in the middle of the war,</i>

1100
01:45:03.164 --> 01:45:04.730
<i>she never came back.</i>

1101
01:45:06.099 --> 01:45:09.769
<i>Their entire case</i>
<i>hinges on the idea</i>

1102
01:45:09.771 --> 01:45:12.538
<i>that if newt knight had</i>
<i>a second child after the war,</i>

1103
01:45:13.774 --> 01:45:16.075
<i>that child had to be</i>
<i>with Rachel knight.</i>

1104
01:45:17.611 --> 01:45:19.712
But there's a problem with that,
ladies and gentlemen,

1105
01:45:21.148 --> 01:45:24.917
because as these census records
clearly indicate,

1106
01:45:26.853 --> 01:45:32.058
Serena knight
came home to soso in 1865.

1107
01:45:33.160 --> 01:45:35.261
Two women...

1108
01:45:35.263 --> 01:45:37.330
Living on one farm...

1109
01:45:37.332 --> 01:45:39.832
<i>At the same time.</i>

1110
01:45:39.834 --> 01:45:43.135
<i>Now, normally</i>
<i>in a court of law...</i>

1111
01:45:43.137 --> 01:45:46.439
<i>We have trouble</i>
<i>proving who the father is.</i>

1112
01:45:46.441 --> 01:45:49.275
<i>But in this strange,</i>
<i>strange case,</i>

1113
01:45:50.477 --> 01:45:52.712
<i>we have trouble</i>
<i>proving the mother.</i>

1114
01:45:55.649 --> 01:45:58.551
Time has a way
of changing things.

1115
01:46:16.036 --> 01:46:18.304
Mr. newt!

1116
01:46:18.306 --> 01:46:20.172
Mr. newt!

1117
01:46:20.174 --> 01:46:22.641
Mr. newt!

1118
01:46:22.643 --> 01:46:24.677
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
hey, hey, hey.
He gone.

1119
01:46:24.679 --> 01:46:26.178
What? What?
He gone down there.

1120
01:46:26.180 --> 01:46:27.546
Who?
He got a gun.

1121
01:46:27.548 --> 01:46:29.515
Who? Moses?

1122
01:46:29.517 --> 01:46:32.084
Uh-huh. They took him.
They took our boy.

1123
01:46:32.086 --> 01:46:35.187
Who did?
A bunch of men from eakins.
First thing this mornin'.

1124
01:46:35.189 --> 01:46:36.822
Sir, he got a gun.

1125
01:46:43.531 --> 01:46:45.431
Moses!

1126
01:46:45.433 --> 01:46:47.266
Stay back now!

1127
01:46:47.268 --> 01:46:48.701
Moses, stop!

1128
01:46:48.703 --> 01:46:51.404
Stop, hear?
You gonna get killed.

1129
01:46:51.406 --> 01:46:53.439
It ain't you.

1130
01:46:53.441 --> 01:46:55.674
It ain't your fight!
I'm goin' with you.

1131
01:46:55.676 --> 01:46:57.276
You his daddy now?
No, sir.

1132
01:46:57.278 --> 01:47:00.446
Huh? I'm his daddy.

1133
01:47:00.448 --> 01:47:02.348
It's my boy.
It's your boy.

1134
01:47:05.285 --> 01:47:07.887
I'm goin' with you.
This is
the only help I need.

1135
01:47:07.889 --> 01:47:09.588
I'm goin' with you.

1136
01:47:09.590 --> 01:47:11.390
They'll arrest me.

1137
01:47:11.392 --> 01:47:13.125
They'll kill you.

1138
01:47:13.127 --> 01:47:15.294
Can't nobody own my boy now!

1139
01:47:15.296 --> 01:47:17.596
No, sir.
It's your boy.

1140
01:47:17.598 --> 01:47:20.800
I'm tired.
Yes, sir.
Let's go get him.

1141
01:47:20.802 --> 01:47:23.803
You and me.
Come on now.

1142
01:47:23.805 --> 01:47:25.938
That's what
we gonna do.

1143
01:47:25.940 --> 01:47:28.774
That's my boy.
They'll arrest me.

1144
01:47:28.776 --> 01:47:30.376
They'll kill you.

1145
01:48:09.149 --> 01:48:10.983
Isaac.

1146
01:48:10.985 --> 01:48:14.253
Don't worry.
It's me, your uncle newt.
I'm taking you out of here.

1147
01:48:14.255 --> 01:48:16.255
Right now?
Yeah, right now.

1148
01:48:25.599 --> 01:48:27.266
Come on.

1149
01:48:27.268 --> 01:48:29.602
Here we go.

1150
01:48:29.604 --> 01:48:31.670
Hold it!

1151
01:48:34.374 --> 01:48:36.275
Where you going
with that boy?

1152
01:48:37.811 --> 01:48:39.512
Taking him home.

1153
01:48:39.514 --> 01:48:41.080
We got papers
on that boy.

1154
01:48:41.948 --> 01:48:43.816
Papers?

1155
01:48:43.818 --> 01:48:45.951
"That the defendant,
Newton knight,

1156
01:48:45.953 --> 01:48:49.655
did on November 14, 1865,

1157
01:48:49.657 --> 01:48:53.659
intervene and interfere
in the lawful apprenticeship

1158
01:48:53.661 --> 01:48:57.963
of a negro child in violation
of Mississippi law."

1159
01:48:57.965 --> 01:48:59.532
A what? Apprenticeship?

1160
01:49:01.334 --> 01:49:04.303
What is a lawful apprenticeship,
lieutenant?

1161
01:49:04.305 --> 01:49:06.639
To quote
the statute on apprenticeship...

1162
01:49:09.876 --> 01:49:12.678
"If any apprentice
shall leave the employment

1163
01:49:12.680 --> 01:49:16.582
of his or her master
without consent,

1164
01:49:16.584 --> 01:49:20.219
said master may pursue
and recapture the apprentice

1165
01:49:20.221 --> 01:49:24.256
and bring him before
any justice of the peace,

1166
01:49:24.258 --> 01:49:27.226
whose duty it shall be
to remand said apprentice

1167
01:49:27.228 --> 01:49:30.396
to the service
of his or her masters."

1168
01:49:30.398 --> 01:49:33.899
-You done yet?
-You, sir, are out of order.

1169
01:49:33.901 --> 01:49:36.502
No, I'm not out of order,
lieutenant.

1170
01:49:36.504 --> 01:49:38.070
I understand this
quite clearly.

1171
01:49:38.072 --> 01:49:40.105
Y'all get your land back.

1172
01:49:40.107 --> 01:49:43.108
Then you go and work up
some fancy law just last week

1173
01:49:43.110 --> 01:49:45.844
that gets this boy
back in the fields
picking cotton for you.

1174
01:49:45.846 --> 01:49:48.080
Mr. knight, you're gonna get
your chance to talk.

1175
01:49:48.082 --> 01:49:50.916
No, I'm gonna settle this
right here and now.

1176
01:49:50.918 --> 01:49:55.220
How much, huh? How much?
You buying and selling people.

1177
01:49:55.222 --> 01:49:57.423
How much, Mr. eakins? Hmm?

1178
01:49:57.425 --> 01:50:00.793
How much for me
to buy back this here
lawful apprenticeship, huh?

1179
01:50:02.128 --> 01:50:05.698
That's $70.
That do it?

1180
01:50:09.869 --> 01:50:11.337
Fair enough.

1181
01:50:13.073 --> 01:50:14.807
Fair enough. Yeah.

1182
01:50:14.809 --> 01:50:16.642
Let's go.
Let's go.

1183
01:50:54.080 --> 01:50:57.483
- No more auction block for me.
- No more, no more.

1184
01:50:57.485 --> 01:51:00.986
No more drivin' stacks for me.
No more, no more.

1185
01:51:00.988 --> 01:51:04.523
No more pounding salt for me.
No more, no more.

1186
01:51:04.525 --> 01:51:08.193
No more auction block for me.
No more, no more.

1187
01:51:08.195 --> 01:51:11.597
Union league! Union league!
Union league! Union league!

1188
01:51:11.599 --> 01:51:13.032
Union league!
Union league!

1189
01:51:15.269 --> 01:51:18.771
The meeting of the soso
and Jones county union league

1190
01:51:18.773 --> 01:51:20.673
will officially come to order.

1191
01:51:22.842 --> 01:51:24.276
Here it is.

1192
01:51:25.378 --> 01:51:27.680
Right here.

1193
01:51:27.682 --> 01:51:30.182
Congress just passed
an amendment

1194
01:51:30.184 --> 01:51:31.884
to the United States
constitution.

1195
01:51:33.853 --> 01:51:37.122
"Article 15, section 1.

1196
01:51:41.661 --> 01:51:45.431
The right of citizens
of the United States to vote...

1197
01:51:47.200 --> 01:51:50.402
Shall not be denied
or abridged...

1198
01:51:51.671 --> 01:51:56.175
By the United States
or by any state

1199
01:51:56.177 --> 01:51:57.776
on account of race,

1200
01:51:59.012 --> 01:52:01.146
color

1201
01:52:01.148 --> 01:52:03.716
or previous condition
of servitude."

1202
01:52:05.351 --> 01:52:07.219
That means
when we was all slaves.

1203
01:52:07.221 --> 01:52:08.821
Yeah.

1204
01:52:08.823 --> 01:52:11.256
We got the right to vote now.

1205
01:52:11.258 --> 01:52:13.158
Congress done passed a law.

1206
01:52:59.739 --> 01:53:03.909
Yeah, it's a black church,
Jasper, but it's a union church
as well.

1207
01:53:03.911 --> 01:53:07.479
They fought beside us,
and our boys got as much
to lose in this than anyone.

1208
01:53:07.481 --> 01:53:10.549
I know.
Then get 'em to come
to one meeting.

1209
01:53:10.551 --> 01:53:12.651
Get 'em to come to one
union league meeting.

1210
01:53:12.653 --> 01:53:15.053
They gonna see
the fight ain't over.
They ain't gonna come.

1211
01:53:15.055 --> 01:53:17.890
They just ain't.

1212
01:53:17.892 --> 01:53:19.491
Their war is over.

1213
01:53:21.461 --> 01:53:22.895
It's over.

1214
01:53:24.731 --> 01:53:26.799
You know better
than that.

1215
01:53:26.801 --> 01:53:29.334
God bless you, newt.

1216
01:53:29.336 --> 01:53:32.070
You are the most stubborn man
i ever met in my life.

1217
01:53:33.840 --> 01:53:36.475
It ain't just for us.

1218
01:53:36.477 --> 01:53:38.510
All right?
It's for everybody.

1219
01:53:38.512 --> 01:53:41.513
Black, white, rich, poor.

1220
01:53:42.482 --> 01:53:43.982
It's for our oppressors

1221
01:53:43.984 --> 01:53:45.851
who don't know
what's good for them yet.

1222
01:53:47.086 --> 01:53:49.121
It's for everybody
who came before us

1223
01:53:49.123 --> 01:53:51.590
who couldn't even read
this ballot.

1224
01:53:51.592 --> 01:53:53.358
It's for our children,

1225
01:53:53.360 --> 01:53:56.662
who, lord willing,
won't have to shed blood for it
like we have.

1226
01:53:58.097 --> 01:54:00.532
And it's for their children

1227
01:54:00.534 --> 01:54:02.801
and their children's children.

1228
01:54:04.471 --> 01:54:05.938
Push!

1229
01:54:05.940 --> 01:54:08.440
Come on. Push!
One more good push.

1230
01:54:08.442 --> 01:54:10.442
-Aaah!
-I see it coming. One more.

1231
01:54:10.444 --> 01:54:11.944
One more.
There it is!

1232
01:54:11.946 --> 01:54:15.113
Oh, your baby!
I got your baby!

1233
01:54:15.115 --> 01:54:18.951
Look at that nose.

1234
01:54:21.554 --> 01:54:23.755
Do he look black
or white to you?

1235
01:54:27.127 --> 01:54:29.461
Well,
i don't know.

1236
01:54:31.030 --> 01:54:32.631
Neither, I guess.

1237
01:54:34.968 --> 01:54:37.135
You just a brand-new thing,
ain't you?

1238
01:54:39.539 --> 01:54:41.139
Yes, you is.

1239
01:55:18.011 --> 01:55:21.079
<i>Your honor,</i>
<i>a new piece of evidence</i>
<i>has come to our attention</i>

1240
01:55:21.081 --> 01:55:24.516
that we would like to introduce
as people's exhibit 7.

1241
01:55:24.518 --> 01:55:27.252
Objection, your honor.
We weren't noticed
on this piece of evidence.

1242
01:55:27.254 --> 01:55:31.256
Well, I wasn't exactly<i> noticed</i>
on his census report either.

1243
01:55:31.258 --> 01:55:34.593
What exactly is this new piece
of evidence, counselor?

1244
01:55:39.032 --> 01:55:41.633
The knight family Bible,

1245
01:55:41.635 --> 01:55:43.535
<i>in newt knight's own hand.</i>

1246
01:55:49.609 --> 01:55:51.610
How much y'all need?

1247
01:55:51.612 --> 01:55:53.645
A lot more than this.

1248
01:55:53.647 --> 01:55:55.080
Oh.

1249
01:55:55.082 --> 01:55:57.783
This spindle.

1250
01:55:58.785 --> 01:56:00.652
Here.

1251
01:56:00.654 --> 01:56:02.254
I'll take him.

1252
01:56:07.093 --> 01:56:10.762
Oh. There, darling.
It's all right.

1253
01:56:10.764 --> 01:56:12.464
It's all right.
It's okay, baby.

1254
01:56:12.466 --> 01:56:13.899
It's okay.

1255
01:56:15.969 --> 01:56:17.669
It's okay.

1256
01:56:17.671 --> 01:56:19.905
Shh, shh, shh, shh.

1257
01:56:24.677 --> 01:56:25.677
Hmm?

1258
01:56:26.813 --> 01:56:29.147
Hmm.
Look at that.

1259
01:56:29.149 --> 01:56:31.083
You got him to stop.

1260
01:56:31.818 --> 01:56:33.352
Well,

1261
01:56:33.354 --> 01:56:36.288
man just wants to be
listened to, right?

1262
01:56:36.290 --> 01:56:38.790
Especially these men.

1263
01:56:48.801 --> 01:56:50.769
Getting chilly.

1264
01:56:50.771 --> 01:56:53.005
Hmm, it is.
Yeah.

1265
01:56:55.008 --> 01:56:59.011
You ain't got to
fill it out now.
I'll fill it out for you.

1266
01:56:59.013 --> 01:57:01.546
You gonna register.
You get to vote.

1267
01:57:01.548 --> 01:57:05.283
You get to vote in public and
you get to vote for black folks.

1268
01:57:05.285 --> 01:57:07.686
Vote for black folks?
Yes, sir.

1269
01:57:07.688 --> 01:57:09.888
Black judges,
maybe even a black sheriff.

1270
01:57:09.890 --> 01:57:12.157
I don't know.

1271
01:57:12.159 --> 01:57:15.227
That sound like heaven,
and I ain't ready to die yet.

1272
01:57:15.229 --> 01:57:18.964
All right.
I'm gonna need
your whole name.

1273
01:57:20.199 --> 01:57:22.000
Ed-Edward James.

1274
01:57:22.002 --> 01:57:23.902
Edward James.
Edward James.
Yes, sir.

1275
01:57:25.371 --> 01:57:27.005
And, uh,

1276
01:57:27.007 --> 01:57:28.974
you know how old you are?
No, sir.

1277
01:57:28.976 --> 01:57:30.642
No. Thirty?

1278
01:57:30.644 --> 01:57:33.045
1835 maybe.

1279
01:57:33.047 --> 01:57:34.880
That's what
we gonna say.

1280
01:57:34.882 --> 01:57:36.915
All right.
Don't forget now.

1281
01:57:36.917 --> 01:57:39.017
Yes, sir.
They might ask you
some questions.

1282
01:57:39.019 --> 01:57:40.152
What's your name?

1283
01:57:40.154 --> 01:57:42.054
Thomas. Watson.
Thomas.

1284
01:57:42.056 --> 01:57:44.523
Samuel Whitman.
That's a good name.
Strong name.

1285
01:57:44.525 --> 01:57:47.526
Joseph Thomas.
Joseph Thomas. Okay.

1286
01:57:47.528 --> 01:57:50.162
We gonna change some things.
We just got to believe.

1287
01:57:50.164 --> 01:57:52.998
-You know where you was born?
-Natchez.

1288
01:57:53.000 --> 01:57:54.499
Okay.

1289
01:57:54.501 --> 01:57:56.568
You know your age?
I'm 30.

1290
01:57:56.570 --> 01:57:58.270
Thirty years--
what's your last name?
Davis.

1291
01:57:58.272 --> 01:57:59.571
Davis.

1292
01:57:59.573 --> 01:58:01.506
And what about your father?

1293
01:58:01.508 --> 01:58:03.742
-What's your mama's name?
-Meryl.

1294
01:58:03.744 --> 01:58:05.010
All right.

1295
01:58:28.768 --> 01:58:30.268
Hey!

1296
01:58:35.074 --> 01:58:36.641
Where you going,
boy?

1297
01:58:39.245 --> 01:58:40.712
Hold up there!

1298
01:58:49.590 --> 01:58:51.690
Hear that man
talkin' to you, boy?

1299
01:59:02.168 --> 01:59:03.902
Hey, boy!

1300
01:59:06.572 --> 01:59:08.607
Talking to you, nigger!

1301
01:59:51.718 --> 01:59:53.051
Moses?

1302
01:59:54.820 --> 01:59:56.288
Moses?

1303
01:59:59.659 --> 02:00:01.293
Moses!

1304
02:01:23.109 --> 02:01:26.044
Lord, today we bring you
our-our brother...

1305
02:01:27.413 --> 02:01:29.981
To take into your loving arms.

1306
02:01:32.251 --> 02:01:33.718
To hold and shelter...

1307
02:01:35.655 --> 02:01:37.522
And to bless
with life everlasting.

1308
02:01:41.595 --> 02:01:45.463
Lord, if it's the good
that you seek in men,

1309
02:01:45.465 --> 02:01:48.566
then you ain't never
gonna find no better

1310
02:01:48.568 --> 02:01:50.468
than Mr. Moses Washington.

1311
02:01:54.140 --> 02:01:57.575
Man had so many reasons to be
full of hate, yet he never was.

1312
02:02:00.112 --> 02:02:02.480
That, lord, is one of
your greatest miracles.

1313
02:02:09.021 --> 02:02:10.922
So let us not weep.

1314
02:02:13.459 --> 02:02:15.593
Let us not shed
a tear here today...

1315
02:02:17.663 --> 02:02:19.531
'Cause since the day
i knew him...

1316
02:02:21.634 --> 02:02:25.170
All he ever wanted to do
was get free.

1317
02:02:25.172 --> 02:02:27.238
And now he is.

1318
02:02:31.944 --> 02:02:34.279
Moses deserved
a better world than this.

1319
02:02:37.950 --> 02:02:39.551
And now he's got one.

1320
02:02:53.733 --> 02:02:55.400
I guess that's it.

1321
02:02:56.969 --> 02:02:59.671
It ain't but noon.
Others could show up.

1322
02:02:59.673 --> 02:03:02.240
Nah, they're scared,
Jasper.

1323
02:03:02.242 --> 02:03:04.142
Scared's
a powerful thing.

1324
02:03:07.012 --> 02:03:10.648
Don't seem too American
for an election to be over
'fore it starts, does it?

1325
02:03:11.484 --> 02:03:13.118
Nope.

1326
02:03:15.187 --> 02:03:17.889
Well, we got 22
registered Republicans here.

1327
02:03:19.258 --> 02:03:21.159
We're damn sure gonna vote.

1328
02:03:22.194 --> 02:03:23.395
Twenty-three.

1329
02:03:36.742 --> 02:03:38.176
Election day, ain't it?

1330
02:03:40.379 --> 02:03:41.679
Sure is.

1331
02:05:42.968 --> 02:05:45.403
We'd like republican tickets.

1332
02:05:45.405 --> 02:05:47.405
Mmm. We ain't got those yet.

1333
02:05:50.910 --> 02:05:52.410
Hmm.

1334
02:05:52.412 --> 02:05:54.312
Just the democrat tickets.

1335
02:05:55.514 --> 02:05:57.415
We'll wait.

1336
02:05:57.417 --> 02:06:00.018
Might be
a pretty long wait.

1337
02:06:00.020 --> 02:06:02.620
Hmm.

1338
02:06:10.496 --> 02:06:12.397
Let me explain
something to you.

1339
02:06:14.533 --> 02:06:15.934
These men
are here to vote.

1340
02:06:19.071 --> 02:06:22.407
And they mind dying
a whole lot less than you do.

1341
02:06:39.291 --> 02:06:41.192
I'll see if I can find any.

1342
02:07:30.442 --> 02:07:31.843
No!

1343
02:07:39.619 --> 02:07:42.320
No! No!
-Get him up!

1344
02:07:46.993 --> 02:07:48.993
Ain't just for you
to decide.

1345
02:07:51.463 --> 02:07:53.564
That child has a choice.

1346
02:07:54.633 --> 02:07:56.434
I didn't have no choice.

1347
02:07:58.771 --> 02:08:01.005
What kind of life
will be better for him?

1348
02:08:01.007 --> 02:08:02.807
That ain't the point.

1349
02:08:02.809 --> 02:08:05.610
I don't want my boy
to get lynched.

1350
02:08:07.146 --> 02:08:08.413
Or beat.

1351
02:08:10.616 --> 02:08:12.583
I want him to go to a school.

1352
02:08:14.386 --> 02:08:18.122
I don't want him
to drop his eyes
every time a white man walk by.

1353
02:08:20.025 --> 02:08:23.628
I don't want him to be a "boy"
no more once he turn into a man.

1354
02:08:25.998 --> 02:08:28.700
Don't you want that too?

1355
02:08:28.702 --> 02:08:30.134
Course I do.

1356
02:08:31.236 --> 02:08:33.071
We got to go
up north.

1357
02:08:33.073 --> 02:08:35.339
Hmm.

1358
02:08:35.341 --> 02:08:37.308
It ain't your fault
we lost that war.

1359
02:08:38.677 --> 02:08:41.546
I know you tried to win it
all by yourself.

1360
02:08:45.884 --> 02:08:47.485
This is our home.

1361
02:08:49.188 --> 02:08:50.655
It's our home.

1362
02:08:58.497 --> 02:09:01.999
We would like to offer you
a proposal, Mr. knight.

1363
02:09:03.235 --> 02:09:07.405
This book
is pretty conclusive evidence.

1364
02:09:09.441 --> 02:09:11.609
In fact, in all my years
of prosecuting,

1365
02:09:11.611 --> 02:09:13.845
I never seen a more damning
piece of evidence.

1366
02:09:15.547 --> 02:09:17.682
Now, Mr. knight,
i don't believe you

1367
02:09:17.684 --> 02:09:20.318
really knew which side
of the family you were on.

1368
02:09:21.553 --> 02:09:24.222
What's your offer?

1369
02:09:24.224 --> 02:09:28.092
We have no desire to send
your client to jail, Mr. oaks,

1370
02:09:28.094 --> 02:09:30.595
but we can't tolerate
this kind of example either.

1371
02:09:31.930 --> 02:09:34.465
So if he will get
this marriage annulled,

1372
02:09:34.467 --> 02:09:37.101
leave the state of Mississippi,

1373
02:09:37.103 --> 02:09:41.305
then we'll agree to drop
all charges against him.

1374
02:09:41.307 --> 02:09:43.307
You mean, I end my marriage?

1375
02:09:43.309 --> 02:09:47.078
In case you haven't been here
for the past three weeks,
Mr. knight,

1376
02:09:47.080 --> 02:09:50.715
your marriage is neither
a lawful nor proper union.

1377
02:09:52.751 --> 02:09:54.218
Proper union?

1378
02:09:56.588 --> 02:09:58.289
Prop--

1379
02:09:58.291 --> 02:10:01.325
I was married
in this courthouse.

1380
02:10:01.327 --> 02:10:03.528
I was married
in this courthouse!

1381
02:10:29.655 --> 02:10:33.024
But where we gonna go?
We can't get married
anywhere else.

1382
02:10:35.694 --> 02:10:38.162
Up north, I guess.

1383
02:10:39.598 --> 02:10:41.566
<i>We don't know anybody</i>
<i>up north.</i>

1384
02:11:30.749 --> 02:11:34.418
I understand your client wishes
to change his plea, counselor.

1385
02:11:34.420 --> 02:11:36.354
Yes, he does,
your honor.

1386
02:11:36.356 --> 02:11:38.389
Is this true,
Mr. knight?

1387
02:11:46.365 --> 02:11:47.932
No, it's not, your honor.

1388
02:11:47.934 --> 02:11:49.767
Mr. oaks!

1389
02:11:49.769 --> 02:11:52.904
-If I could just--
-your honor,
I'm not changing my plea.

1390
02:11:52.906 --> 02:11:55.740
- 'Cause I'm not guilty
of anything.
Young man,

1391
02:11:55.742 --> 02:12:00.011
I don't appreciate these games,
and I am tempted to rescind
your bail right now.

1392
02:12:00.013 --> 02:12:02.380
Your honor--
you can rescind
anything you want,

1393
02:12:02.382 --> 02:12:04.115
but I'm not changing my plea.

1394
02:12:04.117 --> 02:12:06.350
Fine.

1395
02:12:06.352 --> 02:12:09.720
Bailiff will take
the defendant into custody.
Bail is hereby rescinded.

1396
02:12:09.722 --> 02:12:11.188
