Apocalypse Africa: Made in America

Brothers and sisters, the following video is one we all need to watch...


Apocalypse Africa: Made in America

"There is blood on America's hands." - Randall Robinson, Former Director of TransAfrica

---

Secret recordings. Once classified films. Hidden documents. From inside the archives of the United States government comes a story of racism and manipulation that reveals how the actions of a nation ultimately brought about the collapse of a continent: Africa.

With powerfully haunting images, this controversial new film exposes the story of Africa's collapse and will fill you with an intense passion for the importance of human life.

Quote of the day

"By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.-Confucius "

Food for thought.

Blacks Without Borders Teaser & Clips
Please watch the following clip regarding black Americans making it in South Africa

From filmmaker Stafford U. Bailey, who directed such critically acclaimed
documentaries as A Laugh, A Tear; The Other Side of Victory; and The Black Road to
Hollywood, comes BLACKS WITHOUT BORDERS an emotional story about hardship,
sacrifice and great rewards. This film plunges into the lives of a group of
African Americans who have come to South Africa to find the American dream. These
ex-pats have discovered that America is not the only land of opportunity. The
boundaries that many of them faced in the United States dont exist in South
Africa. Everyone knows about the deplorable conditions in parts of Africa, but
this film captures the wonderful lifestyle South Africa has to offer. We follow
these modern day globetrotters all over the country and tour their amazing homes.
From an 11,000 sq ft. house that overlooks the Indian Ocean to a 35,000 sq ft.
mansion that sits on 700 acres. This film is funny, heart-warming and passionate.
It will take you by surprise and leave you deeply moved.
