A New Independence

An anarchist propaganda film synthesizing the best of classical anarchism with American traditions. The film depicts American history as neither the standard "deification of our forefathers" of the patriot-conservative crowd nor the "the white man stole the Indian land and enslaved black people" stuff of the PC Left. Instead, A New Independence focuses on the tradition of Americans as rebels and outcasts resisting oppression: indentured servants, slaves, farmers, laborers, religious sects escaping persecution, anarchic Indian tribes, the fact that some of the American states were originally penal colonies, etc. The film also emphasizes the pioneer spirit, the communitarian side of American history as well as the libertarian side, the cultural and religious diversity of the early settlements, the racial/ethnic diversity, and so on.

This is excellent! Keep them coming.

I read the Liberty and Populism essay, you guys are dangerous, but we need more videos from the ATS camp. Books don't spread like internet files. Bring us the goods!

@SecularNumanist When I say individualism I mean selfishness (more, more and more things for meeeeee etc. materialism) etc. rather than ones independance to do as he wishes with his financial situation. I am neither hateful of communism nor 100% individualist so I don't know why you're assuming I am individualist.

@Hellenic7Saxon

communists are evil but individualism is bad. cool story bro

@ToothpickMcBrainy Well, immigration IS a threat to whites. We built the countries and now they're being taken over by completely alien people. Being concerned of this makes one a Nazi?

Oh and BTW, the Indians really had nothing to do with American culture, nor did thet blacks. America was built by whites and had a European culture until the 60's when the Jews started to dominate America's media and thus brainwashed white people into self-guilt and individualism (hippies, white gangsters etc)

[SecularNumanist]

I absolurely love this video. sublime. well done for doing it

[ToothpickMcBrainy]

The woman at 8:21 who calls immigration a threat to whites seems to me to quite possibly be a Nazi. Just a heads up, not necessarily true.

@Akatam0t0ma No, they lost because they didn't have know-it-all assholes - such as yourself - telling them to slash their tribal budget to "keep themselves strong and free." Wait - sounds like bullshit? Then I know *you'll* eat it up! :D

[Akatam0t0ma]

@TheAzov:

What are you statist-shit eater babbling about? That they lost because they didn't have a centralized government of wise philosopher bureaucrats?

[TheAzov]

That's why the Indians lost.
