For the second half of the twentieth century, the Third Reich has been deliberated and dissected.

Now, as the Greatest Generation fades into history, the image of 40,000 uniformed Nazis goose-stepping in perfect synchronization represents all most Americans know about history’s most dangerously successful totalitarian government.

Dig deep beneath the surface of our collective understanding of the Third Reich as History unearths what we don’t know about the individuals who comprised one of the most fascinating and complex regimes of recent history.

Third Reich: The Rise and Fall uncovers familiar anecdotes and fascinating details about the people who comprised the Nazi Party, and raids the treasure trove of archives the Nazis left behind, including rarely seen German newsreel recordings along with other unique footage carried home by Russian troops.

I'll add on to this thread as well

Extraditing coke
An exclusive investigation into Jamaica's handling of a US extradition request which led to a state of emergency across the capital and the murder of up to 200 people. To the people of Tivoli Gardens, Christopher Coke is the "president" - but he is also considered one of the most dangerous narcotics kingpins in the world by the US justice department. Al Jazeera English went beyond the headlines to discover who the man accussed of drugs and weapons smuggling really is

Anarchism in America

Anarchism in America - full documentary - YouTube



This is a 1983 documentary, directed by Steven Fischler and Joel Sucher, and produced by Pacific Street Films. It has been re-released by AK Press to DVD. The film begins by explaining the filmmakers' interest in anarchism based on their involvement in the group Transcendental Students while in film school at NYU. The film includes interviews with influential anarchists Murray Bookchin, Paul Avrich, Jello Biafra, Mollie Steimer and Karl Hess, and with poet Kenneth Rexroth. It also discusses the Spanish Civil War, the 1917 Revolution, the influence of Emma Goldman and the case of executed anarchists Sacco and Vanzetti.

The film labels anarchism as the only ideology that is staunchly anti-authoritarian, and discusses how anarchist ideals align with the revolutionary, independent spirit of America from rural communities to urban zones.

Trader -Paul Tudor Jones_

Paul Tudor Jones "Trader"

“Trader” (PTJ) video, long out of print and practically impossible to find, is (finally) showing up on line. It includes his now infamous 1987 crash forecast.

After he made his fortune, Jones reputedly bought up all of the copies of Trader. One rumor had it he was embarrassing at the naked footage of his trading; others suggested his “secrets might be discerned.

Regardless, it has been pretty impossible to find . . . Until now.
