there is no aristocracy with her i 1st heard of hart, i led into a problem, a physician who was at harlem hospital. and she was talking about infants that were born addicted to crack. and that they were buried in shoe boxes a 1000 at a time on hard island. and at that time, hard island was open to journalists and to academics. and so i decided that i was just going to get there. and it just so happened that that day was the very 1st day that these inmates had ever been on hard athletics. and these were a young man convicted of misdemeanors like turnstile jumping graffiti. so you know, they're not felons or anything like that. they're young men that couldn't afford a good lawyer. or i used to live in ringo that was one of the bad neighborhoods about about a return only brooklyn new york city in who's crazy in 89. it was cracked and stuff like that. and we used to, so we'd in drugs and stuff like done in our one of getting caught with possession and i wouldn't have going on right on him for a little bit of time in those days it was, it was a, do you get anything you get a knife robe, anythi

what i want to do is to use two specific neighborhoods -- harlem, african-american, and bez hurst, stone italian american -- and these two people from different backgrounds come together and the precious on them make it difficult for them. but that was not the really -- the whole interracial thing was only a platform to get to what the movie is really about which is, at the time, how crack was devastating the black community, we should really see through what i believe is one of the greatest sam jackson performances as gator. >> trevor: right. there are so many stories and moments from your life in here. you know, your life has spanned decades, time, decades of people. fourth decade of filmmaking. i would like to know what the 198 offspike lee would take as advise from the 2021 spike lee, a person who has been all these journeys, crookland through defy bloods. >> i rarely do these hypothetical things but for you, my brother, i will. >> trevor: thank you. >> ed if the off3-year-old spike lee could speak to the -- as my late mother would say, the skinny rusty-butt spikey, i would tell my y

like, remember a few years ago when everyone was doing the harlem shake? and at first you thought it was dumb, but then once 80% of your friends on social media were doing it, you thought, “well i guess i should do the harlem shake?” and then you shook. this is kinda like that, except in this case if you dance, you won't die on a ventilator. so why not? there is a new covid variant making the rounds, called delta plus. delta plus spreads faster, and has 40% more legroom. which is nice. these new names need to be catchier too. like hurricanes. we should start naming new variants after prominent anti-vaxxers. “i'm sorry sir, you tested positive for scott baio.” speaking of contagious viruses, we had a new episode of “the bachelorette” tonight. this might not be the most dramatic season ever, but it's definitely one of the dumbest. there was a showdown tonight between peter “the pizza-preneur” and his handsome arch enemy, will. >> you're not a man. you're a bully. you're going to crumble in life. hey, pizza boy. >> you call me a pizza boy, you
