All Power to the People
Find out more about Black Panthers
I missed recording the first 15 minutes or so. The
first 33 minutes
(that I recorded on VHS) are mainly
about how the Black Panther movement came to be,
with some classic sound-bites by Martin Luther King etc.
The
second 33 minutes are
about the suppression of the movement by the US authorities.
The
third 33 minutes are
the most chilling account of how the so-called FREE
United States are in reality deeply (mind-) controlled by
the powers of a minority. They use drugs to suppress
political revolution in one or two generations of young
black US-americans. Quite successfully. They US-black
youth don't vote, they don't get involved in running their
affairs, they incarcerated at incredibly high levels...
and presumably brainwashed in jail (with christian stuff!)
You need the TOOLVOX player from the Audio Tools page. TOOLVOX is a very very highly compressed audio format, you get just under 2 hours of soundtrack for downloading 11 minutes of TOOLVOX.... absolutely THE BEST compressed audio format.
The following pictures are to give you an idea of who is saying what
in the film. They are in chronoligical order, but sorry I haven't
found or devised a system for a synchronised slide-show yet.
You (black people of US-America) have to get the film on
video anyway, and show it to all your friends. It was a lesson
for me. Not that not already suspected it
(I read uncensored
news for thinking people) but this film is a more or less
complete description of the evil and rassist system that the
USA really is, still.
YOU LOVE AMERICA??? Maybe you get a bad feeling from reading this, because you were brainwashed and CONDITIONED to feel repulsion when contemplating this. You will argue that there are half-truths and propaganda mixed with truthful reports of occasional misdemeneanors in this film. Sorry. My feeling is that this was so wide-spread that this film, if anything, is understating the true extent of the rassism and conspiracies that was going on. The rassism has been reduced somewhat, but the mind-control is working better than ever. My proof: Why are you US-americans to vehemently rejecting the words that I am writing here. Can it be that I touched the taboo? Raised the unthinkable? Put the needle in the lobotomised part of your brain?
If you, just now thought: the bastard you are affected
by mind-control (for the want of a better word).
If you just were bemused, you are alright.
HAVE AN OPEN MIND AND DO NOT BE A NATIONALIST. We had enough of nationalists, Hitler, Hussein, Stalin, Slobo to name a few. As an example of your guilt in this (like the germans guilty for Hitler) just remember how the US-corporate-military government went into Somalia. What an important war that was for the US-american people (The long CNN docu on that tells what really happened!). Or just read the Z Magazine. (Available at Borders). For an US-american citizen that is the best information on real-politics that you are likely to get. And brush up on your Chomsky
