Rage Against the Machine at Coachella 2007 Wake Up

Rage Against the Machine playing at Coachella, April 29th 2007. First time playing together in almost 7 years.

This is me trying to survive in the Pit during the greatest hour and a half of my life!!!

words can not describe the energy and how awesome that historic night was

I was pretty damn close, watching with over 60,000 people!!! I got messed up in the pit, people shoving, pushing, moshing crowed surfing over me! It was the craziest concert i've ever been to in my life!


THESE ARE THE WORDS TO ZACK'S SPEACH:


"A good friend of ours said that if the same laws were applied to U.S. Presidents as were applied to the Nazi's after World War II, then every single one of 'em, every last rich white one of 'em from Truman on would have been hung to death, and shot. And this current administration is no exception. They should be hung, and tried, and shot. As any war criminal should be. But the challenges that we face, they go way beyond administrations. Way beyond elections. Way Beyond every four years of pulling levers. Way beyond that, because this whole rotten system has become so vicious and cruel, that in order to sustain itself, it needs to destroy entire countries, and profit from their reconstruction, in order to survive, and that's not a system that changes every four years, it's a system that we have to break down generation after generation after generation after generation after generation. Wake up."

i dont think you can say zack was saying that being white and rich was a crime

he was saying that the only reason they are the administration is because they are white and because they are the administration they have abused there powers and become rich because of it not that there is a problem with all white rich people

In the words of Wyclef "If I were president. I'd get elected on Friday. Assassinated on Saturday. Buried on Sunday"

You should read Noam Chomsky.

Democrats or Republicans-Almost every single one of them has perpatrated war crimes that would, had they not been the most powerful person in the world, have gotten them hung.
