If you want a world full of ugly people breed with your own race, If you want a world full of beautiful people you gotta mix eg, Linda Carter who played wonder woman is half mexican brown and white scottish. Many white super models are mongrels eg Christy Turlington is half peruvian brown and half white english. Mariah Careh is half black half white, In fact nearly 100% of all white people are mixed with black, asian, arab, latina blood but they just look white damn! ha ha ha

"AMERICANS ARE BURNING DOWN ALL THEIR GREAT CITIES'" (Sevareid)

Who are these Americans?

"We are Black" (James Brown)

"He made blacks acceptable" (Sharpton)

If we could only show what has happened recently in Philadelphia and Kansas City when black mobs have been attacking whites.

This DVD is easy to find - and the actual straight-up TV feed from that night (unedited) is around... potent stuff

[BladePreacher]

JUST...THANKS!!

[JesusaloneisLord]

My God, thank you for being with James Brown that day.

He's not just the greatest performer, he's a hero.

[alienative1961]

today a friend of mine, age 24, told me he "didn't get what the big deal was about james brown". after i picked my jaw up off the floor i directed him immediately to this stunning documentary as a good place to start. crucial history..and funk wound up as tight as it gets. kids...wtf?

[kitkatjunkies]

Thanks for uploading this missed it on tv 1st time it was on.

[murphy456]

Thank you.

[RollingStone000]

Is this on a DVD anywhere? I'd love to pick this up.

[thekingofpopj]

[IkeDyson]

Hey, all you muthas! I AM the Godfather! You better get back, let me do my thing!

Get ready for the big Payback!

[marquettefootball]

@IkeDyson But that's the beautiful thing. He didn't ask for payback that night. He showed that people of all races - moreover, people of the one race, the human race - could be better than payback.

[IkeDyson]

@marquettefootball

He didn't ask for payback? WHAT are you talking about? Did you actually listen to the documentary? He asked for $60,000.

[MrEladli]

@IkeDyson

you're talking about pay. marquettefootball is talking about payback - no connection. i think there was a misunderstanding here.

[debgirl12000]

@IkeDyson He deserved more than that! He saved Boston's ass that night after MLK was murdered! JB had to pay his band, pay for is plane and other expenses as well. JB dropped out of school and went to prison. He had a talent and he used it to make himself rich but he could sing and he could dance. He was exceptional at what he did. No one could do like JB!

[lfcportstewart]

Many thanks for uploading this - I have missed it on tv several times and was annoyed that I kept missing it!

[femifem2]

James was on fire!!!!!!

danny ray!! 2:20

[thepacereport1972]

One of James Brown's most important live performances.

[breakfastclub75]

This was really a good documentary, very well done.

[poughkeepsiejohn]

I saw this on VH-1 Classic. A great documentary. Brings back a lot of memories, good and bad. Boston has always been a racial powderkeg, had been since the days of Sacco and Vanzetti. Then along comes James Brown who did that televised concert on WGBH after Martin Luther King was murdered and the city was spared from impending doom.

By the way, the narration was done by Dennis Haysbert---The President from '24'!
