Video Transcription:

Whazzupppppppp. Yeah, my mom just barged in here, kicked me off Facebook and told me to start reading. What page are you on?

Dude? Seriously?

I hate you. So on a scale of 1 to 10, how bored out of your mind are you?

OK, how are you in love with this book? I’m on page three and I’m totally falling asleep. I have no idea how to pronounce half these words.

Wait, did you just say Darfur? OK, you so have not read the whole book. I’m only on page 3 and I already know that this takes place in like, Transylvania. Wherever that is. But it’s definitely not in Africa.

Why are you so upset? There’s nothing we can do about the Holocaust. I mean, like we talked about in class, it’s horrible but …

What do you mean “another Holocaust”?

How many people? Half a million? Well, the government or like the UN or something must be doing something, right? What are we, barbarians?

Seriously, someone needs to do something.

Do my English assignment? Very funny.

Night has the answers. To the mass murders in Darfur?

OK, OK. I’m reading already. I’ll see you tomorrow. Bye.
