American Revolution 2 [Trailer]

Transcript (Download)

I got a good others to learn if you want to shoot.

Lo above the course which drives by now.

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, come on, come on, kill, come on, come on, I'm over here, shoot, come on, shoot, come on, shoot the kill, kill, shoot the kill, come on, shoot, kill, that's it, come on, get him.

For one brief instant, we all saw Chicago, saw much of America.

We made up our minds about what we thought and then we forgot and went home.

This film was made with those people for whom Chicago is home.

A cast of both pigs and people.

People for whom the violence of convention week was nothing new, no big thing.

They whoop niggas down here every night and never nothing say, and y 'all be telling me about Democrats.

I have a dude, you see a police, he must be in some kind of sickness anyway, because if he white, he can go out there and get a $15 ,000 a year job if he has something on the ball.

What about the question of law and order? The police officer is to approach the automobile and there is to be no request made to get out of the automobile.

This directive is completely bypassed in the areas that they want to rule by fear.

When you come out here, I come out with your hands out, your hands out.

I know ain't nothing, that noise from people's wooden money.

If you have got no money, you don't have no love.

They spray something in my face, there's a little stuff they spray in your face.

Oh, I'm tired of it.

I'm tired of them coming down the street and kicking my damn head in for nothing I ain't done.

By the husband gave his life, man.

The cat was 18 years old.

I sat in jail for two years, man.

I thought I did a lot of thinking, man.

And the thinking is that there's a rich man, man.

And the rich man all the time got to have a dog to kick, you know? And that's us, brother.

In the past, the poor neighborhoods have been exploited by persons or person or persons who have been less than American.

Here we are, Americans, red, black, yellow, white, with one goal in mind, to build a society.

It's the Bushraw motherfuckers came to the park, man.

The one that's got the green shit.

If you can realize that concept of poverty, the concept of poverty, a revolution can begin.

Some comments by Bobby Seale, national chairman, Black Panther Party, USA.

We have two fronts.

We're going to fight racism.

We're going to fight capitalism.

We are not in no way or form going to fight racism with racism.

We're going to fight racism with solidarity of all the people.

It's a class struggle.

Brother, we've seen this film and we know it is.
