Transcript:
Thomas: So, young brother, what's your name? Huey: Huey Freeman. Thomas: Huey! That's a great name! Did you know there was once a pretty famous person named Huey? Huey: Perhaps you're referring to Huey P. Newton, co-founder of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense and icon of the black power movement of the late sixties and early seventies. I was named after him. Thomas: Um, actually I was thinking of Huey Lewis from Huey Lewis and the News. Pop star of the mid-eighties. Huey: Before my time.
