MODERATORS
Might be a bit much, but The Spook Who Sat By The Door is an amazing flick.
Judas and the Black Messaih while it pretty much just pays lipservice to Hampton's politics in the first few minutes, it's still a pretty good movie.
This speech by Malcom X is really good and a still relevant piece on how black movements are captured and defanged. Might be a bit much.😅
Silverton Seige is pretty good, but might be outside your scope. "Follows three young freedom fighters who seek refuge in a South African bank in Silverton, and take the bank and its customers hostage and would only release them in exchange for the release of Nelson Mandela."
Django Unchained! Might be a much, but if you're playing Inglorious Basterds...
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Thanks for the recommendation. Judas and the black messiah is a good one if only to introduce folks to Fred Hampton. I might add spike lee’s malcolm x to the list as well and maybe do the right thing
Oh, yeah, no doubt. It's still a good movie for showing how racist the system is at its roots. One of Gerald Horne's speeches on The Counter-Revolution of 1776 might be good in that regard, as well.
That MalcomX speech is a bit rough as it goes off on House N Words and Field N Words, but the back half of the speech is REALLY good. It's especially relevant in context of how BLM has basically been neutralized.
