At the age of 13, he decides, oh, she'll probably go home now. The day comes, last day it worked for him to leave, right? As he's about to clock out, this woman happens to be white,. She comes back with a fistful of money, gives it to him. It's all the rent you've ever paid me over the last four years. 1927. You know, I remember I adored my grandfather. He died in 1995, and man, adored him.
