Agnes Quits

Description

Agnes decides to leave her job, which means Montague no longer has anyone to blame for his problems. Without this outlet for his frustration, his already bad temper becomes even more difficult to control!

Nathaniel "Magnificent" Montague, is an American R&B disc jockey notable not only for the soul music records he helped promote on KGFJ Los Angeles and WWRL New York City, but also his trademark catch-phrase, "Burn, baby! Burn!" that became the rallying cry of the 1965 Watts riots. Following criticism that this phrase had inadvertently stirred up rioters, Montague advocated non-violence and urged young listeners to pursue their education, coining the new phrase "Learn, baby! Learn!"
