Queen & Slim evaluation action
-
Queen: He told me nothing scares a white man more than seeing a black man on a horse.
Slim: Why?
Queen: 'Cause they have to look up at him.

Slim: When I was little, I asked my mom where babies come from. She said I was too young to know. Then I asked my dad. And he said, Babies are a product of two people that needed something from each other. So I said, Needed what? He said, Maybe they needed to feel seen. Maybe they needed to feel loved. Maybe they needed to feel human.
Queen: And then what?
Slim: Then I asked my grandmother. She said babies come from God. They're his way of making sure no one ever really dies. I remember her saying, Through our children, we are reborn. Then I went to my older brother and I asked him. And he said, Nobody knows. You're just born. That's it. Now, leave me alone. I wasn't satisfied with that answer either, but I ran out of family members to ask. So he got the last word.
Queen: So, who was right?
Slim: None of 'em. Babies come from fucking. Plain and simple.
