    They would have us believe we were never into the arts and storytelling.

    Fantastic! This has the flavor of a theatrical production rather than a film or tv presentation.

    Could somebody find the television showing of the play Blues For Mr. Charlie done in the mid 60s!

      +DeeNice681 I know Blues for a Junkman but I don't see anything of the Baldwin play. I'll look into it

    They would have everyone believing slavery was a "job" or trade agreement

    It's such a shame that the audio in this film is so warped. The songs are unbearable, but I am otherwise so grateful for this upload.

    • @lorebay2593
      @lorebay2593 Před rokem +1

      Well it is 50-60 years old or more. It's a miracle to even see these old films, and I think that was a young Melba Moore singing that soprano.

      Kool-Aid* Jim Jones murder-suicide claimed the lives of more than 909 so-called: "black people" who really thought Christianity had something to do with our people - it didn't/it doesn't just like "religion", all of it is pure mind-controlling European trash designed to destroy us eternally from within.
      Correction: None of us originated from Africa because Africa wasn't the original name for that continent 500-yrs-ago it was the name of a country! The people of [hue] (subtle shades of brown perfection), unlike or recessive/ genetically inferior troglodytes never "evolved" nor were we descendants of "Africa" or "Africans" all lies told by our oppressors to further push an agenda that's been debunked, and laughed at from around the world.
      Trump represent the neanderthal ilk, like the rest of these 6-12" coccyx tail growing lice headed abominations. But, is he an asshole? I'm not too sure.
