booker t. washington
and i say to you, gentlemen, that every race or notion that has ever got upon its feet has done so through struggle and
persecution; and out of this very resistance to wrong, out of the struggle against odds, they have gained strength

(coalhouse and sarah and the baby are returning to new roch-lle in the model t
willie conklin and his men appear, goofing off in front of the firehouse. we hear the familiar sound of a model t coming
toward us. the men begin to fan out. coalhouse and sarah find their way barred by willie conklin and the emerald isle
firemen. nastiness hangs in the air.)

sarah

coalhouse

sarah
stubborn, righteous man

(sarah hurries off with the baby.)

coalhouse

since some high-falutin’ n-gga and his wh0r- and his wh0r-‘s baby thought they could drive that godd-mn car of their any
place they pleased, that’s since when

(coalhouse gets out of the car.)

(booker t. washington disappears.)

coalhouse
coalhouse found a policeman but he refused to help. when he returned to his car, the model t was spattered with mud. there
was a twenty-inch tear in the custom pantasote top. the tires had been slashed and all the windows broken. deposited on the
seat was a mound of fresh human excrement

conklin
come on, fellas, let’s roll her into the pond and see if she floats!

(conklin and the firemen exit, laughing and pushing coalhouse’s car as sarah returns.)

sarah
come on, coalhouse. come on. it doesn’t matter
