Let the Fire Burn

documentary

This tells the story of the war conducted by the officials of the city of Philadelphia against the black peoples organization Move. It is to my knowledge the only time in our history that a bomb was dropped onto a residential neighborhood by the police killing 11 people, including children and destroying blocks of houses.

This story proves for any who doubt it that if a group of oppressed people publicly call out the white power structure for what it is they will be crushed with as much force as is necessary...and suffer no consequences.

The film is a competent record of one of the more sordid chapters in American history.
