"A poor mans fight, a rich mans war" still going on today. The end of slavery (uk) brought industrialisation a new slavery but as Moses said in the movie " You can not own a child of God" Thank you for the upload, Peace, Blessings and Love.
There was no slavery within the UK since 1066. Nobody was allowed to own a slave within England and the courts freed slaves brought into the country by their owners. In contrast, Britain participated in the evil trade until it was abolished across the British Empire in 1834.
We're almost all slaves today. The slave masters got smarter and are high-tech now. Just following their long term plans. Brilliant and sad. The best slaves are those who are sure they are free. We're more free-range slaves now.
This movie is actually entitled The Free State ofJones, a true story about counties in Mississippi that seceded from the Confederacy to stay loyal to the Union.
Seems to be a lot of movies on You Tube that have been disguised under another name . Use to be called bootlegging or copy writing. But I guess stealing in other countries is ok , unless they bought the rights to the movie
Typical of hollywood making the south look bad and the union good. the south was right on the states rights issue. The war was not about cotton. Slavery was only a side issue. Many colored fought with the south. End result...we got the monster federalized government that has been destroying our country and we are now getting back to states rights.
Yes, learn wars that are more brutal. for another countries land & resources, how to increase thousands of young military men & women & civilians sent to their death, commit war crimes, create newer & more deadly weapons, ect., none except ww2 for freedom.At last we never learn from history. 15:55
This is one of the best true story movie relived and portrayed by Matthew McConughey! Its about human freedom from fear and want for all men regardless of creed or color!
410 out of 10 this is the best movie I've seen in a long time every man is created equal I don't care who you are God bless America thank you for this movie
I cant tell you how much i love this movie. The words we re ll dying to keep them rich hit home folks. Ll of us working americans that work for someone else all our life are dying so they can stay rich. Corporate greed and our politicians have sold us out. We are crazy . I cant wait for america to fall. They opened the borders to use thise people too. Time for us to use our heads people. Something is wrong all around the world. And americans are one of the biggest contributors to this unequal system.
You are wrong. Americans are being used by the wealthy. They funneled most of the good paying jobs, that every day Americans used to work in order to support their families and to have decent homes of their own, to a brutal totalitarian regime on the other side of the world. Just about everything that we and people of the rest of the world buy is now made in that brutal totalitarian regime that still has death camps for dissidents. They also still have forced abortion. China is the number one most polluted country in the world. It has no labor laws and zero environmental regulations and yet we hear nothing from the so called “environmentalists” or the corporate owned media about it! The majority of Americans just want to have decent jobs and the right to raise their families as they choose. That is why people came here from Europe to begin with. The elite royals and the rest of the aristocrats owned all the land and held all the wealth and on top of that they ran the churches. People came to North America so they could own their own land. So they could work and keep most of their wages. The most prestigious colleges and universities of the western world (Including American Ivy League schools) began to embrace and promote communism and Marxism during the early 20th century. Because those schools were run by the wealthy nothing was ever done about it. After WWII the elites of Europe decided to move the educational systems into socialism. That did not begin to happen in the U.S. until the far left Constitution hating judges that had come out of the communist/Marxist dominated Ivy League schools gained a majority in the highest courts in the land with the assistance of the Clinton’s favorite president (Roosevelt). That is when the takeover from within really began. They then started the globalization scam which funneled millions of good paying jobs to communist China and other countries with no labor laws and zero environmental regulations. Slave wages workers make industrialists wealthy. The globalization scam decimated the small businesses of the western world that had once been the source of income for millions of Americans. It decimated the middle class that up to that point had been growing. The corporate overlords bought up the defunct businesses that they wanted. Now we have five major multinational corporations that own most of our economy. We are living in an oligarchy. The wealthy rule over us. They have taken over the elections because their media corporations that lie to everyone just are not being listened to by everyone anymore. After the supremely far left court decisions of the 60s the doors of the rest of the educational system were opened to the academics of the communist/Marxist dominated Ivy League schools. They dumbed down almost all of the American educational system except for the few private schools that have resisted them. These people do not want another “greatest generation” to fight against them. If the U.S. government does fall it will not be the people who get back the power. All is set for the USA to be a totalitarian run country and that regime will destroy the majority of the population just as communist China has murdered millions of their own people.
In Australia the rich and wealthy have a very Liberal, system that uses an invisible violence to make their world work for them. A structured violence you might say. The people who run that system, fear no recourse. My guess is that we are in for a dangerous future . Sir David Attenborough said, "The privileged cannot maintain their current life style status quo with this many people in the world.
Very poignant story, how cruel was human centuries ago and still are for the mighty buck and control. I wished I was able to read the outcome of these men and women. Love seeing and learning history. Thank you for sharing.
Speaking of god.... If ur god would have condemned slavery instead of condoning it. And instead of telling us not to eat shellfish or wear mixed fabrics but told us about the Germ theory of disease none of these people would have died.😊
The invisible supernatural super being was busy again.... un-intelligently designing some disease, cancer or using his incredible magic to design the female birth canal way too narrowly causing millions of spontaneous natural abortions and miscarriages....
And yet here we are enslaved to some psychopaths who are running the government for outside interests. Makes one wonder, what happened to consent of the governed, hmmm?
just saw you inspecting some skidmarks in some jerrys underpants waaw the minds eye,,, my heroes are the 101st airbourne Eagles im from Eindhoven, good luck in expanding your hobby
Being Hollywood its not that historically accurate but worth watching. Newton knight's post war activities and legacy would make an equally interesting film
"Not that historically accurate " in what sense ? The history taught in American schools is propaganda that isn't historically accurate. What bar are you using to measure historical accuracy ?
Have to say the reenactors that participated were very authentic in their actions, battleline deployment, looking the part plysically, and portrayals. unlike many at reenactor events of years past.
Most of the Civil War documentaries or movies that I have seen are very careful to make the South look very valiant and made the North look brutal once Sherman got into the South. Of course the North had been losing the war for years thanks to the cowardice of Lincoln’s generals. Once they did start to win they had to make sure the South did not regroup as they planned. Sad to say that they are mostly correct about the politics of the war in this movie. Most of the Southern soldiers (who were very brave fighters) had very little money and owned no slaves. Many were sharecroppers. They were conned into fighting by the lies of the wealthy plantation owners. Money is a dangerous drug to some.
Probably many of the Northern soldiers were poor too especially if you watch Gangs of New York and see the Irish getting off the boat and immediately enlisted and folks drafted or likely as fictional Rhett said in GWTW there isn't a cannon factory in the whole south they just had cotton slaves and arrogance.
I read if a Southerner owned 20 slaves, he couldn't be drafted... So there definitely was a poor majority..of soldiers in the Confederate Army. And I recently watched a video about the Draft in New York, that led to a mini civil war..
For real tho!! Idk if it’s bravery or stupidity to walk out into open fields like long lines. Just asking to be mowed down by this or that… I’d of been a sniper, long before snipers were even a thing!! You’d never catch me out in an open area like they did it!! It’d be ambush style tactics and straight to the nearest tree line, to pop and move far away from that cloud left behind!!.. Especially after seeing your buddy to the left and right taken out like that.. Absolutely unimaginable to me!!.. But RIP to all those crazy men who did what they had to do, in one of the worst times to have to do such things tho!!! 😔🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@fahhcue850 Basically the same today. Now there are drones that are hard to hide from. Just as if they are in the "open" and waiting to get splattered.
@@fahhcue850 . At least these were relatively equal armed military forces. Most modern wars are carried out between unequal combatants. One side with hugely expensive, technologically advanced weapons, and the other side consisting of badly equipped, desperate militias...or unarmed and untrained civilians. Most modern wars are between military-industrial, corporate-backed machines, and poor people trying to reclaim agency over their lives. Proxy resource wars, are the name of the game. Geo-political posturing to steal and exploit the natural resources of historically colonised nations, by country's whose wealth and empires have been built on the spoils of war.
Fantastic drop of a Movie ..... Complete 💕 love from NEW ZEALAND 💋 from a little boy who grew up in America and went to school there Even as Mãori boy in the 60's I saw racism
Americans are actually more divided today than they were just before the first American Civil War. Actually, the entire World is getting ready to blow, and millions have no idea what is coming.
A very good movie, what tough challenges. When a man can not be with a woman, gosh forbid a child. Is it incompetent or evildoers. Darkness knows not for what it does. Staying Constitutional Republic Supportive all of my Life, even if they murder me. Thanks & Gratitude U.S.A. To the Real Men of Honor and to the Real Females of Etiquette, save the children at all costs.
How old are you? You added way too many greats. My great grandfather fought in the Civil War. He was born in 1844 .. my grandfather in 1889.. my mom in 1938 .. me in 1963 .. Do you now see how you added too many greats? The Civil War was not that long ago.
Only three great grand parents it was 1860's not the 1700's. It was not as long ago as you or most think at all. Especially those of us where it was only 2 great grand father's or Mother's. Being that my grandparents were born in the single digit 1900's before 05. It should easy now to see there parents DOB on average.
So it's not just me who's having difficulties with the audio, I see by some of the other comments. What a pity it was messed with when the movie itself is so well done🤨
If you haven't seen _'Ride with the Devil' (1999),_ that's another CW movie you might like. The main characters are played by Tobey Maguire, Skeet Ulrich and Jewel. GREAT movie. I was surprised to see it on YT! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vMtQahakkbU.htmlsi=d_fHX8XcsTPzGGkr
You know .. they shouldn't even be uploaded judging by the law - I'm guessing. And when people upload, they have to cut a few corners, change the name of the movie, bits here and there to go through security filters. We wouldn't be watching it if it weren't for these guys but don't give them too much praise and love for it cause probably they're trying to make money of the viewing numbers .. Y'all take care now. Go on now. Get ..
Every man is equal in the eyes of God. Why can't people see this even today? What they did to Moses hurt my heart. 💔 I grew up not knowing prejudice until BLM came along and put division between us. This isn't right for anyone! 😔
Hello from Puerto Rico Gar, allow me to recommend you the movie Mambises, Young men from Canary Islands, Spain went to Cuba to fight revolutionay Manbises.
Please make captions in english was a brilliant movie but just goes to show how the rich can twist peoples minds for their own means because its still happening to this day
Fantastic movie. Thank you. But what happened in the end? I could not read the words. The best performance I have ever seen McConaughey give and I have watched many of his movies. He should be filled with pride for his work here. Outstanding!!!!
I do not recommend you watching this version of this movie. Not only are there too many commercials but big chunks of the movie have been cut out so you miss what is really happening. It is a good movie so you don't want to ruin it watching this cut-up version.
I hope this one have subtitles in english Chad, a masterpiese of hispanic literature Martin Fierro. who was a Gaucho, a cow boy from Argentina, very similar story.
Drôle de stratégie de combat en tout début du film. On avance tranquilement au pas cadencé vers les balles ennemis sans chercher à les éviter. C'était çà la guerre à l'époque ? Une véritable boucheriee oui.
Films like this remind us of exactly why Americans consider their 'Right to Bear Arms' so important and are so reluctant to give them up. The Government can be your enemy.
There is a problem with that theory - the KKK also decided the government was their enemy. When we stop being ruled by the people and start being ruled by the people with the most weapons, no one can be free for long. Today we have radical white and/or Christian nationalists with lots of guns. Like the KKK they resent that their way of life, that puts them on top and does not consider others their equals would gladly oppress a liberal atheist veteran like me, or my gay friends, or my trans niece. They think our government is tyranny because they are not allowed to do that. They are required to treat people equally. They can hate whoever they want, but they cannot act on that, but they will if they can, and they will use guns to do it if they think they could win. Yes, this was a nice story about good people standing up for themselves - and being BEATEN by bad people with more guns and more power. Respect for the Constitution which has waned on the right, and the unfettered right to vote is our ONLY hope for freedom. Guns are not the answer.
Its a pity what ever comments there where it was in a language English people don't understand. maybe its a good time to make it understandable for others ,mainly English. However, It is an excellent movie depicting the harrows of segregation and slavery.
@@brockn7878 People who can’t be criticized-and who react with great hostility at any hint of criticism-are revealing something important about themselves.

It is the historic warfare in Europe and the US at the time. Custer and JEB Stuart learned from Native warriors to learn guérilla warfare. Educate yourself, please.
Think long, hard and deeply about the implications behind the fact that NO country can ever hope to win any war unless the majority of the population is in favour of that war effort!
No, there is no free people if there is no freedom of speech, religion, press, to peaceably assemble, and petition the government for redress. Guns are not secondary, they are necessary to preserve those freedoms. It's the Second, not the secondary Amendment.@@paulwheeler6609
Really? The Holocaust was 80+ years ago, but Trump, the GQP, and their zombies are talking genocide and more. “Least no one forget” has become a mockery.
I liked this movie, however, the language which explained historical events during the movie, were not in English. It would be nice to know what it said.
@@JerryWatson-ce4hd well I thank you mister Watson, much obliged, much obliged. Now let's get this money machine rolling ! Wuuu ! Yeah !! Alright then .. Mam .. mister Watson .. y'all take care now, you hear !? Bye and thank you again
This is not the original title, maybe that explains the foreign language that appears in the screen (close captioning) closer to the start of the movie. The original title is The free state of Jones! This is a story based on historical records. This story comes from Jones county MS, I live in Greene county myself. But this story is about the rights of the American citizens and the standing up against any government taking what you have grown or raised for your family in order to support others. Racism is in the movie although not the true plot of the movie itself. In fact the movie will show that as Americans we can stand together and deny the racist power to grow. This war was fought so the rich man could own other human beings! Doesn't it make you wonder why so many poor people fought and died solely for the purpose of giving in to the richest people's greed to have more than the poorest Americans. The one thing you will never see on any battlefield is a rich man. The renaming of this movie is nothing more than an attempt to deny the trademark and copyright owners and actors of the movie their royalties. A crime in America! I love to be able to watch a movie on RU-vid but I am willing to pay for what I get also. Piracy in any form is wrong.
