<v Speaker 1>showing on A and E.

0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:17.480
<v Speaker 2>My father was born. It didn't look like he was

0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 2>gonna come to me. But then all of a sudden

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 2>he was a lie.

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 3>I got something that makes big on the shot, had

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:26.959
<v Speaker 3>a determination to be somebody.

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:29.760
<v Speaker 2>He showed me it was possible.

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:31.600
<v Speaker 3>Not that I could do it, but I could dream it.

0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.399
<v Speaker 1>But I created fark God and.

0:01:33.840 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 2>He was this amazing genius and gave so much of

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:36.759
<v Speaker 2>the world.

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm a black man, I got to take part in

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:41.399
<v Speaker 3>my calls. I gotta take part in my fight for freedom,

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.839
<v Speaker 3>for her Walleton and take us down where it's needed.

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>His music was incredibly important to our community, to our

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>people saying now I'm black and I'm proud. That song

0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>was dangerous, aggressive and political. That's one of the bravest

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 1>things that James Brown has ever done. It's the original

0:01:57.280 --> 0:02:01.520
