Philip Quote #9
Quote from Philip in Not with My Pig, You Don't
Philip: Give it to me. "The coveted Urban Spirit Award given to Los Angeles' outstanding Black leaders will be presented tonight to distinguished attorney Philip Banks." Oh, this is well-written. "Known to his barnyard companions as Zeke, Banks is no stranger to accolades. This ex-hog-handler slopped his way to the top with the help of his trusted companion, Melvin the pig." Who is responsible for this?
Will: [enters] Yo, yo, yo, yo. Hey, Uncle Zeke. I got your 100 black and whites.
Philip: I can't believe this. How did they get all these stories about the pig?
Will: All right, all right, all right. I wasn't going to tell you, but... [points to himself and smiles]
Philip: You!
Vivian: Will, honey run.

Hilary: Growing up on the mean streets of Baltimore, Maryland, Philip Banks overcame great obstacles to win a scholarship to Princeton University in 1963.

Quote from Will
Philip: Well, the community leaders are recognizing me for helping our brothers and sisters on the streets.
Will: But the only time I've ever seen you on the street is when you waiting for the valet to bring your car around.
Philip: Is that so, son? Well, let me tell you something. The '63 March on Washington? I was there. The '65 demonstrations at Selma, I was there. The '65 Watts Riots, I was there, too.
Will: Seems to me every place you go, trouble follows.
Vivian: Will, your uncle deserves this award. He's fought a lot of discrimination cases. He's prosecuted slumlords. He's started scholarship funds.
Will: All that and he still found time to vote for Reagan. Twice.
