These Gold Changes
All right. Somebody's uploaded another part of Be Somebody Or Be Somebody's Fool -- it's the "Roots" segment, where Mr. T tries to teach us to get in touch with our roots. The highlight, by far, is this line from a wide-eyed girl who responds to Mr. T's story about how his ancestors were brought over as slaves:
MR. T: You see? We all have different roots.
GIRL: Yeah! My dad was born in L.A.! And my dad's dad was born here too! But his dad wasn't born here -- he was born in Sacramento.
