It has been about a year since we released a new documentary. I am currently working on a three-part series entitled "Plutocracy" (Political Repression in the USA), as well as the "Anarkos" project. Plutocracy will engage in a far-reaching analysis of political warfare in the United States from the late 19th Century to the present. Many excellent documentaries have been made about specific movements in American history, and a small number on political repression; with "Plutocracy" I hope to offer Americans (and activists in general) a truly comprehensive picture of these movements and attempts by authorities to undermine them. The final section of the film will offer concrete advice to activists and explore positive modern movements for change. I have completed about 70% of the interviews, however I will require additional funds if I am to finish the project. To that end I have set up a fundraiser, which will last about 2 weeks: http://metanoia-films.org/plutocracy/ Major topics will include: private detective agencies during the gilded age; the birth of modern policing; the assault on the IWW; the red scare; union militancy under Roosevelt; the mob, intelligence agencies and labor unions; COINTELPRO and the war against the new left; a critical history of the FBI; 60's utopian movements; the Reagan/neo-liberal counter-revolution; the militarization of the police; the war against radical environmentalists; and the post-911 assault against civil liberties. If you click on "clips" you can watch a handful of original interview segments that will give you an better idea of the subject matter. These include: Christian Parenti -- The origins of American policing Howard Zinn - The Haymarket Affair Noam Chomsky -- The Red Scare Sharon Smith -- Roosevelt and the Flint Strike Paul Wolf -- COINTELPRO Glen Ford -- Martin and Malcolm Larry Pinkney -- The Black Panthers John trudell -- The Framing of Leonard Peltier Thank you for your time and support. Even very small donations are greatly appreciated. Scott Noble P.S. For those interested, I recently did a print interview with Dissident Voice concerning my previous effort, Counter-Intelligence.
