You’ll have no control of your life – you are still a slave.'

And only a few people – I said stand up! Come on, try something with me. Just trust me. Pretend for a moment that I’m Black. I said now you guys just do what I do just for a minute if you want to be free and if you want to have some fun. So let’s try this. And I stood up and I said, Ok follow me, do what I say, say what I say, move how I say, move the way I move: I’m a n*****, you’re a n*****, be a n***** to, be a n*****. Oooh, be a n***** [laughter].'
