Discussions on the political and social unrest of the 1960's; interviews with Julian Bond and Roger Wilkins seek to determine what the "Black Revolution" was really about.
I so wish black television was like this in my times. Being a child of the 90’s the only black television I ever knew was BET and trash. I watch this older television with great envy of those who grew up watching these educational and powerful broadcasts.
It's the same as today my brother ✊🏿 If you noticed all they ever put on television 📺 is a whole lot of 💩to keep your mind occupied (dumb down) they will never put anything on TV that's going to enrich your mind or teach you about history!!!
The purpose of fascism is to create a capitalist dictatorship. Fascism is created by the ruling class and becomes popular with their support. Fascists mainly deny individualism, liberalism, and democracy. And they always reject modern achievements such as human right, freedom and say let's go back to the old days. What they are saying is that basically being the hand and foot of totalitarianism is the liberation from poverty. Contrary to their arguments, it never liberates workers. It also does not break down the ruling class. Rather, it intensifies the dictatorship and exploitation of the ruling class. Fascists always imitate the strategies of the left. They seek to further strengthen oppression by deceiving workers. It is a sophistry and we already know that to give all power to the ruling class that made us poor. They are made up of extremists such as Marxist conservatives, nihilists, Christians, ancient philosophers, and right wing so on. They mostly mobilize radical and hateful rhetoric, like dramatic and revolutionary violent action. Realize what you're being dragged into. It will make the forces you hate even stronger, and you become a slave of that hatred. Their only consistency is all attempts to make the far right party gain power. Many dictators advocate socialism, but in reality they are still capitalists who exploit workers. Fascism is the worst thing that can happen to you, and if you don't know, distance yourself from the worst decision you can make. To be clear, you currently have no other option than Democrats. Other options will make your miserable life even more horrible. We must discuss politics without fascism, no matter what.
This comment was the perfect way to sum it up! Black Businesses & Infrastructure >>Black history being taught by our people = Black Self respect & love

@@SéaFid nah so called white people seperated people by colour, ancient people & The God of Israel in the Bible didnt do that. He seperated people by nations

Identity lost. Nation overrun by foreigners and you don't even ask for your birthright inheritance because you honestly believe you are from Afrika. Do not come to the South with that madness. You up North, got what a Confederacy is all twisted. You are the Indians.and you never were a minority. All immigrants to America are here to take your place since you abandoned your land inheritances. Black power was and is an illusion.
True. When he said all we want is to have equality and to have our basic needs met… I was thinking the same fight is still going on today. The big question is “can you have a nonviolent revolution?” As a white person seeing how things are today….i don’t see how we can accomplish what we need as a country without violence.
@@realhillkellviolence begets violence, I don't know why we as a people still even give respectability politics a consideration. the powers that be have proven time after time that they don't respect us and never will.
I remembered during the civil rights movement that time as a young child growing up in the 60's and 70's as a teenager about the life and assassination death of The Late Martin Luther King Jr. Black people eventually will get the freedom and Justice we deserve. John Humbles.
@@Leo82870 exactly. A whole bunch of social media revolutionaries whining about why the previous generations didn't shed enough blood to make them the new oppressor class.
@izaiahshorten9194 Black's collective buying power is 8th in the world, slightly ahead of Spain, we can build our own nation within a nation, but we want to incorporate with the yte man
This is is brilliant! I was half thinking this was made in 2024 with a time filter. Something like that which is retro but of the future could be powerful!
Thank you for this video. What has become apparent after the revolution is that it was supplanted with the terms integration, acculturation, accommodation, and assimilation instead of self-determination. Today, it is time for the indigenous Africans of America to unite as a New People in realizing our group aspirations--quality education, strong economics with family-owned businesses, coalitions for good government, and creation of wholesome culture that inspires and elevates rather than demoralizes. However, as a New People on the world stage, we need the Creator to guide us toward our great destiny. Western philosophy and tools of oppression have not and can not do that for us. And we should not expect it to.
j.eggar said that about the brothers, but WHAT ELSE did he say of OTHER THINGS being threats to national security??? Did he think (and I'm just asking because i DON'T KNOW) ... did he think it was okay for Whites to "Systematically " , go against the brothers and sisters of the day? Not just the Panthers, but Black people in general.
I see Tony Brown and company were already were having conversations of the evolution of our people from the late 70s from the 60s. It wasn't something that was just now brought to the forefront. Good to see as I wasn't born yet.
Look at the history in this nation,start with the Fist peoples of this land called TURTLE ISLAND. Witness the attitude of the uninvited who illegally Came to this land, and consider the many Wars Fought as land was being stolen and Tribes murdered. Then think of all the inhabitants forced into slavery Eventually Free people's reduced in numbers placed In Reservations far from their homelands. Now the capture, and kidnappings of peoples from Africa Brought to the Americans, Caribbean Islands. Many ships packed with only Children. To become free Labor for life children included We have had many Revolts, Rebellions and Resistance Down the generations to be at this point today. BLACK POWER TO THE PEOPLE AND THANK GOD FOR GROUPS LIKE THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY ! ! ! 💥💥💥💜💜💜💥💥💥
the extreme revolutions of the 1960s are no longer needed in 2024. its a simple as that! the issues that plague poor black communities today are centered around economic issues. we dont need a revolution, we just need more black people to see the opportunities thats in front of them, and learn how to take advantage
Looks like Julian Bond is playing that Georgian citizen card for all it's worth during this first year of the Jiminy Kotter administration. I was on a U.S. aircraft carrier in '77 and found the racial atmosphere not much different than what brought on the riot on the USS Kitty Hawk in the '60's. From what I understood, affirmative action was put in place in the UCMJ in red letters which stopped open altercations. White boomers got double messaging through the '60s/ '70s. Their parents accepted the national security state, didn't want to see trouble on their TV sets, and J Edgar Hoover obliged with his Co-Intel Pro Ops by the late 1950's, and I think Richard Nixon followed through with his Southern Strategy, a hybrid of Eisenhower's Operation Dixie. Getting rid of the draft got rid of lots of white protesters, and ironically placed as many or more Black men in the military which the SPENTAGON wanted for the Continuous War Economy. This was the period where television advertisements for military enlistments started, and military spending became more blurred. The picture with White National Guard troops walking down the street in this clip with bayonets affixed to their M-1 rifles reflects the problem solving capability of the White Majority back then, and to this day rich crooked Minority Oligarchs.
We got complacent. Women's suffrage movement, like Satan to Eve, poisoned Blsck women against Blsck men. And Blsck women opened the door for WT women to take over Blsck Civil Rights issues from the 70s to 2020. Affirmative Action and D.E.I. benefits dominated by WT women, while Blsck people took the social fall for the "handouts."
yea this just isn’t true. self defense is revolutionary. i think whats to be learned is that during this era black folks largely chose violence, rather than self defense, as a means to announce and proclaim our humanity. but there was never a truly self defense ideology. if it were the panthers would have been less visibly gun happy. what happened was necessary for the time but i believe given the french revolution and other marxist ideas a people can liberate themselves through effective egoless organizing via mass strikes, mutual aid, and simply opting out of the capitalist project but theres just something lazy to me about the immediacy of violence as a means to correct violence. self defense is not violence its preservation and a lot of this movement wasn’t about preservation it was about repaying the violence in kind, which i hate to say it but in many ways dr king was kinda right about that. He just never went as far as self defense. In a justice oriented world, both non violence and violence are non productive. Self defense is the solution in addition to mass organizing beginning at the local level. This frees not just us but all who are oppressed under facism
@@Jonathan-tm3jg this reply sounds overly repetitious and quite frankly avoids what i said to the point where you are saying do nothing against an oppressive regime. is this what america did with the british avoid them?
@@daveyram2967 if self defense reads as doing nothing maybe we shouldn’t continue further in conversation because that reads to me that you 1.) didn’t have the capacity to understand the fullness of what I argued or 2.) you just don’t care to understand what is meant by armed self defense. In any case appreciate your view I just have a boundary to only engage w folks who operate on good faith & a willingness to selflessly understand varied positions. So take care.
@@Jonathan-tm3jg i noticed when this generation is challenged you go to insults immediately concerning my intelligence to that i say buzz off. self defense is personal not a revolution. malcolm x said revolutions are complete and total change. mlk could never be right about a revolution because he never tried one. castro and che was right. joseph kony was right in uganda. you just scared and by your response quite frankly a coward.
History is strange and not always accurate iv seen bits rewritten in my life time . there was some thing I noticed about all the leaders and spokes persons / people they caped all had one thing in common .

@@londonbowcat1 no the one thing they all realised was it was not a colour struggle it was a class struggle , then they got caped and replaced by bigots , dividers and informers .
@@SWill-z2m We suffered from not one but many weaknesses. First and foremost was the subconscious programming we were subject to on the Plantations; Secondly, the sub-culture that grew out of that collective subconscious programming during slavery; thirdly, alcohol and drug consumption was endemic in the sixties; fourthly, too many brothers and some sisters who abandoned their babies; fifthly, a strong popular anti-intellectual disposition; sixthly, weak spiritual social structures; Seventhly, image thinking. I could go on because I witnessed all of the above and more.
@EarthColonyNet What do you belive is an effective (and possibly quick) way to dismantle the destructive programming that still plagues our people to this day?
@@HURT108There is no quick way to dismantle centuries of 'Pavlovian conditioned reflex' among African Americans or descendants of slavery. In fact, if African Americans were left to fend for themselves they would die or kill each other off in petty power struggles. We are like the Dalit caste of India...broken.
That's true but a social collective of positively enlightened ppl can potentially enlighten whole communities. That's what the free breakfast program was attempting to nurture when it was stopped before it could really take effect, unfortunately. Those buildings they met in to eat were also a good attempt at the kind of community center that could be the beginning of something great.
This video is a literal eye opener of truth to “all” of us in our culture in possibly understanding what happened to “our” so-called displaced struggles for dignity, freedom, liberation and justice during the ‘60s and beyond. Listening to Brother Malcolm, Dr. King and others’ comments may make an inquisitive mind truly wonder what really happened. I offer, “Think about one not having an undying spiritual unity in the Most High Alone as a resource for living correctly and the failure of acquiring legitimate knowledge of self and others as a few keys to what may have happened to (and imploded ) the Black communities’ dreams and aspirations of being free from within.” That may have been what really destroyed, in so many unfortunate situations, their momentary (mouthed) visions of a utopian sense of liberated togetherness.
