They were playing hop, and I asked if I could play too, and the one from school said no...
Something wrong with the clip?

Tommy Green:
They were playing hop, and I asked if I could play too, and the one from school said no dirty little Jew could play with them. And they all yelled those other things. I started to speak, and they all yelled that my father has a long curly beard, and they turned and ran. Why did they, Pop? Why?
Phil Green:
Come on , drink some of this.
[offering a glass of water]
Phil Green:
Did you want to tell them that you weren't really Jewish?
Tommy Green:
No.
Phil Green:
That's good. See, there's are a lot of kids just like you Tommy, who are Jewish, and if you said it, it would sort of be admitting there was something bad in being Jewish; and something swell in not.
Tommy Green:
They wouldn't fight. They just ran.
Phil Green:
Yeah, I know. There's a lot of grown-ups just like that too, Tom, only they do it with wisecracks instead of with yelling.
