Forget what you think you know. And listen to the voices of the silenced majority.
Open your minds and remember Malcolm X’s famed words: “…what I have seen, and experienced, has forced me to rearrange much of my thought-patterns previously held, and to toss aside some of my previous conclusions. This was not too difficult for me. Despite my firm convictions, I have always been a man who tries to face facts, and to accept the reality of life as new experience and new knowledge unfolds it. I have always kept an open mind, which is necessary to the flexibility that must go hand in hand with every form of intelligent search for truth.”

I’ve watched this trailer three times today and have sent the link to many of my friends. I think this is the documentary that Noam Chomsky is a part of. I heard about this a while back but then forgot about it and couldn’t remember the name. Thanks for the link.
The trailer’s powerful. The quote from Malcolm X is even more powerful. Thanks.

Thanks for the quote from Malcolm (I don’t think I can ever get enough of him).

Powerful…such an apt description. I can feel the anger and the tears welling up just from a four minute clip.
