“If Facebook were around in the 1930s,’’ he said, “it would have allowed Hitler to post 30-second ads on his ‘solution’ to the ‘Jewish problem.’”

watched this last night on Netflix....I had forgotten much of it....and I'm sure some creative license was exercised , but a compelling reenactment with good acting and reminders about police involvement in demonstrations ....and sham trials

I have not seen it. I probably won't see it.
But I need to check out Bobby Seal, Bobby I hardly knew ya in 1968 when I was a racist and bitter old man.
"I think the American Dream should be about a greater progressive legislation that allows for what I call a necessary future world of cooperational humanism."
Bobby Seal
what is then between us?
