Can I get a brief synopsis?

Movie from early 70s. FBI tries to get more color in ranks so tries to hire a black. Bunch of black recruits but only one passes. Just basically have him sitting around doing nothing, thinking he a dumb nikka. He quits and uses the the knowledge gained to form a guerilla army in the hood and start a revolution. White people die :lupe:

Always have preffered the book, pick it up if you can. The film is great but the book greater

I remember reading everyone that took part in the production of this film was black balled by the industry

what's it about

The movie takes place in Watts CA. Its about a black leader who starts a make shift neighborhood protection group for the inner city against the white mobb etc.

They take on the deposition of the Nazi German police which is why the movie is called Black Gestapo.

I'm telling you man, these throw back movies of the 70's were revolutionary. The y just don't make movies like this anymore.
