1
The irony is that most of the stores that were destroyed during the riots were owned by black people.
2
That's stupid though.
3
I mean, why trash your own neighborhood?
4
Well, that's my point.
5
It's an irrational act.
6
It's like an expression of rage by people who feel neglected and turned away by the system.
7
Exactly.
8
I mean, it's like we had in Watts or the riots in Chicago in 68.
9
That's crap.
10
I don't buy that for a minute.
11
Calling a riot an irrational expression of rage is such a cop-out.
12
It's opportunism at its worst.
13
It's a bunch of people grabbing any excuse they can find to go and loot a store.
14
Nothing more.
15
You know, the fact that these people ripped off the stores in their own communities,
16
all that reflects is the degree in
17
which these people have absolutely no respect for the law at all and certainly no concept of,
18
like, community or civic responsibility.
19
Wait a minute.
20
White people commit crimes against white people, too.
21
Yeah, but they're not offing each other in record numbers all over America.
22
Look at the statistics, for Christ's sakes.
23
It's one in every three black males is in some phase of the correctional system.
24
Is that a coincidence?
25
Or do these people have,
26
you know, like a racial commitment to crime?
27
Well, not only that, they're proud of it.
28
Well, maybe it says something about prejudice in the judicial system.
29
Yeah, if you want to talk about criminal statistics,
30
you might want to take a look at the social inequalities that produce them.
31
Yeah, yeah, you know what?
32
That's exactly what I hate,
33
because what you're doing, Davina,
34
is taking one thing and calling it something else and just,
35
you know, alleviating the responsibility that these people have for their own actions.
36
You know, it's like saying,
37
it's not a riot, it's rage.
38
It's not crime, it's poverty.
39
It's just nonsense.
40
Bullshit.
41
You know, it's exactly what happened in this trial,
42
too, because the media twisted things around so people got all focused on,
43
you know, these cops and whether or not they were going to get convicted
44
and whether Rodney King's civil rights had been violated.
45
I mean, everybody lost sight of old Rodney King himself.
46
I mean, the guy's a multiple felon by his own admission.
47
He's high as a goddamn kite,
48
driving 120 miles an hour down the highway.
49
He gets pulled over by a bunch of cops, and he attacks them.
50
He attacked police officers.
51
That's the bottom line.
52
And he walked.
53
Yeah, and there's some Yahoo there with a video camera who turned it on halfway through
54
so that all we see is them hitting him.
55
Exactly.
56
You know, you got Powell and Coon winding up
57
and cracking him with billy gloves and Bersenio kicking him in the back of the skull so it looks severe,
58
you know, and people are going,
59
oh, this poor guy, this poor guy who attacked four cops
60
and those cops end up on the stand defending themselves for using absolutely standard textbook self-defense procedures.
61
I don't think that the tape showed that at all.
62
You didn't think so, huh?
63
And what, you're an authority, Ma?
64
Murray, what do you think?
65
Well, I did think that the police use their clubs rather excessively.
66
Who are you to say what's excessive?
67
I think it was totally appropriate.
68
I think they're in a better position to make that judgment call than you are.
69
In fact, we as society grant cops a certain amount of authority to make those calls
70
because we acknowledge that their job is difficult and dangerous.
71
You know, unfortunately very few people like respect that, respect that authority.
72
Look who's talking about respect here, Mr. Junior KKK.
73
What?
74
You know what, you know what,
75
you wanna go to college, Doreena?
76
You should learn to listen.
77
Derek!
78
Okay, I didn't say I respect any laws.
79
Derek!
80
I acknowledge a cop's authority.
81
I don't respect any laws that let monkeys like Rodney King back on the street.
82
Second of all, I am not,
83
as you well know, a member of a low rent,
84
disorganized bunch of rednecks like the fucking KKK.
85
Please.
86
So, take your head out of your ass.
87
You've gotten off the point.
88
I had a point.
89
That wasn't even the point.
90
Do you have one?
91
What is your point, Derek?
92
All right, think about this.
93
Think about this.
94
If Danny had been walking across the street that night,
95
and Rodney King had clouted into...
96
Can we just drop this Rodney King thing?
97
Who would like some dessert?
98
We're having a discussion.
99
We're having a nice discussion, right?
100
If Rodney King had been driving along,
101
hopped up on Chivas Regal and PCP and had killed Danny,
102
he'd be singing a very different tune about the force of those cops.
103
I didn't see him hit anybody in the tapes, and neither did you.
104
He didn't happen to kill anybody, thank God.
105
Put it down, okay?
106
Allie's sleeping.
107
If he had though, I mean,
108
come on, think about it.
109
If that fucking monkey had run some kid over,
110
everybody would have a very different opinion of this whole matter.
111
You know, they'd be focused on Rodney King and not on these officers,
112
but instead he just attacked a few cops.
113
And so all of a sudden it's hands across America for this fucking total son of a bitch.
114
I mean, it blows my mind.
115
We're so hung up on this notion that we have some obligation to help this struggling black man,
116
you know, cut him some slack until he can overcome these historical injustices.
117
It's crap.
118
This stuff you guys are saying just perpetuates it.
119
All this liberal nonsense, you know?
120
Everyone's turning and looking the other way while our country rots from the inside out.
121
Christ, Lincoln freed the slaves.
122
What, like 130 years ago?
123
How long does it take to get your act together?
124
Well, Jews have been persecuted for over 5,000 years.
125
Are you saying that it's wrong to feel sensitive about anti-Semitism?

Perché praticare la conversazione con questo video?

Questo video con Edward Norton offre uno spunto unico per praticare la conversazione in inglese. In particolare, affronta temi complessi e sociali, utilizzando un linguaggio colloquiale e diretto. Guardare e ascoltare un dialogo intenso come questo può aiutarti a migliorare la tua capacità di espressione e a comprendere meglio le emozioni e le reazioni dei parlanti. Inoltre, esercitandoti con tecniche di shadowing in inglese, puoi assimilare non solo le parole, ma anche il tono e l'intonazione, aspetti essenziali per una pronuncia naturale. Praticare con video del genere ti permette di confrontarti con situazioni reali e di sviluppare un vocabolario pertinente.

Grammatica e Espressioni nel Contesto

Nel dialogo, emergono alcune strutture grammaticali e frasi chiave che possono arricchire il tuo repertorio linguistico:

  • "That's stupid though." - un modo informale per esprimere disaccordo.
  • "It's an irrational act." - qui si utilizza il termine "irrational" per descrivere comportamenti che sfuggono alla logica comune.
  • "They have absolutely no respect for the law." - utilizza la costruzione "have... for" per esprimere possesso di sentimenti o valori.
  • "It says something about prejudice in the judicial system." - impiega un'espressione idiomatica per sottolineare un messaggio implicito.

Queste strutture non solo ti aiuteranno a comprendere meglio il discorso, ma saranno utili anche nella tua comunicazione quotidiana in inglese. Analizzando e replicando frasi, puoi imparare l'inglese con YouTube in modo efficace.

Trappole di Pronuncia Comuni

Durante il video, puoi incontrare alcune parole e frasi che potrebbero rivelarsi difficili da pronunciare:

  • "irrational" - attenzione alla sillabazione, potrebbe essere confusa con "rational".
  • "opportunism" - fai attenzione all'accento sulla terza sillaba.
  • "commitment" - la ‘tt’ è spesso pronunciata in modo diverso rispetto all'italiano; esercitati ad articolare correttamente.

Concentrarsi su queste parole ti aiuterà a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a evitare errori comuni. Utilizzando il metodo dello shadowing, puoi ascoltare attentamente e ripetere, rendendo la tua pratica più efficace.

In sintesi, questo video non solo presenta un contenuto stimolante, ma offre anche l'opportunità di crescere nella tua padronanza della lingua grazie a tecniche avanzate come shadowspeaks.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
