You ain't going to lose your mind during the election year.

Sir, sir, what we want...

Listen, we're not here to create problems.

What we want to do is we want to pay a homage...

Okay, okay, sir, if we're going to pay homage to black history, don't you think that all of that is a part of black history?

I like the positive, man. I like the positive. You're paying me today to work for you. This ain't no slave free labor. Do you understand that?

We have to have every single area of black history, don't you think?

We have to have the beginning, the middle, and the ending.

Okay, well, if you want to highlight something, let me be Frederick Douglass.

Let me flick my hair back.

But see, the problem you got with him was his father wasn't a white man.

See, y'all like looking at our women, but y'all don't like uplifting the black man.

So how about I do that?

Let me be Frederick Douglass, and let's highlight that part.

How about you, Chad?

You like black women?

environment within the company and everyone wants to not a great environment now the majority of the

of the Caucasian people are going to be masters tomorrow okay what did you say masters did you

say masters yes most of them are going to be masters tomorrow I'll be in there with my

Man, you ain't uplifting the thing. You know what I'm gonna do? I'm coming in tomorrow as Barack

Obama, but you don't like this, do you? Yeah, you're running around here wanting to get somebody

to come in to be a slave and you be a master. Master this. Master me coming in as a black man
