Title: THE LAST POETS: Made in Amerikkka

Added: Aug 30, 2009

Author: viperdude1702

Duration: 7:47

Description:
Harlem 1968 a group of young poets get together and found THE LAST POETS. With jazz or funk as a backdrop, percussions rolling and words shooting out like bursts of machine gun fire, the group denounces the oppression of African Americans, while painting a devastating yet humorous picture of life in the ghetto. Nearly forty years after their separation, the members of this legendary group - the founding fathers of today's hip hop, rap and slam - come together in Paris for a one-time concert at the 2008 Banlieues Bleues Festival.From the intimacy of their Parisian rehearsal room, they evoke the past: the birth of the collective, the years of political unrest, their high-risk creative madness. THE LAST POETS: Made in Amerikkka is a film that erases the boundaries between different genres. It's a live recording, a musical documentary and an art film, all combined into one, and yet it goes beyond any of these. It is a film event, faithful to the spirit and the image of The Last Poets.

Aug 7, 2011 - I'm white. I heard The Last Poets when I was pretty young. I was also involved in the punk/wave scene from the beginning to the end. When I heard The Last Poets I was ecstatic - this was truly an art form; it had an authentic voice. What I hear now is rap polluted by the same forces that always try to co-opt authentic art for commerciality. There's only a few people I really would put in the same class and tradition as The Last Poets.Kids need to learn this stuff.Thx for posting it.

WhiteHouseThieves Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - ALRIGHT YALL government long ago started a war against the people...the idea of STATE is to steal the land (food), RELIGION to steal your faith (obey), MEDIA to steal your mind (brain wash), TOTALITARIAN is a synonym for (NEW WORLD ORDER) NAZI own & control of everything. We the people are all slaves who have bought into the illusion freedom isnt free & you must work for freedom (money). The SYSTEM was never designed to work for the people. USA is a CORPORATION we are indentured servants.

WhiteHouseThieves Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - The SYSTEM dictates whos the next puppet (president). Your vote never mattered freemasons manipulate the world via the order of the garter (brittain royal mularchy mafia family) We the people run the world (we're police, military, fed etc) but are blind to this truth. Unity for all race/religion against the common enemy (NAZISM) or CONCENTRATION CAMPS for all. For common cause (EARTH) 90% population manipulated by 10% (see why they use alot of mercury on us) Cilantro & Chlorella detox

WhiteHouseThieves Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - The royal mularchy micromanages the food we eat, water we drink, the tv/media we watch, the clothes we wear, the laws we observe...EVERYTHING i've listed is CORRUPTED & POISONED...interesting. We are now witnessing the Roman empire NAZI HEIST. America has always been a white supremist CORPORATION once stolen from the original people..NOW..its saturated...all magazines, food, news, laws, EVERYTHING has the NAZI seal of approval. WE THE PEOPLE RUN AMERICA VIA THE DIVINE SPIRIT OR TYRANNY TOMORROW

WhiteHouseThieves Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - Finally you are a god...stop looking in the sky...in a book...to a pope,priest, reverend...I in I...entheneogen...google it. Magic mushrooms (HOLY MUSHROOM) the ones that stain blue...the government knows & built america to trap you in sin...shitting in your water (toilet), wiping your ass with trees, indifererent to suffering of others, worshipping idols (government & money/cars/women/status) YUP its a set up. Basterds reversed the laws of nature & now we eat each other in more ways than one.
