Heute in unserer Reihe Blogkino: Der Film “The Ritchie Boys-. Als solche bezeichnete man die Absolventen des Military Intelligence Training Center oder Camp Ritchie genannten Ausbildungszentrums der US-Army während des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Die Teilnehmer waren vorwiegend junge Deutsche, meist Juden, die in den Vereinigten Staaten eine neue Heimat gefunden hatten. Der Film erzählt ihre Geschichte.
Revolution an der Tanzbar: Boikot, Berri Txarrak, Dikers und die Sociedad Alcoholica - gegen Zensur
Gegen Zensur: Die unbedingt und sehr empfehlenswerten spanisch / baskischen Bands Boikot, Berri Txarrak, Dikers und Sociedad Alcoholica in einem gemeinsamen Clip. Das Thema hat natürlich kein bisschen mit aktuellen Ereignissen im weltweiten Hort der Demokratie zu tun...
Revolution an der Tanzbar: OUTERNATIONAL - SIR NO SIR
Heute mal was von Outernational aus Brooklyn:
Lyrics:
"SIR NO SIR
Open your eyes desert sand is in your vision now
You know the lies while you're off in a distant land
How do you justify the crimes you're committing kid?
Now that you've seen what it's like on this battlefield
Hey what you say when the sun comes low
Knocking at my front door looking for a way out
Now let it go with a solemn sense of purpose
Can't hold on we're on our own again
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Your planet's burning war and torture's madness
Bodies burning a whole countries torn to bits
First you're cannon-fodder now you're accomplices
I can see the scars from your arms to your conscience
Hey what you say when the sun comes low
Knocking at my front door looking for a way out
Now let it go with a solemn sense of purpose
Can't hold on we're on our own again
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Something's got to give, something's got to give
I love working for Uncle Sam
Lets me know just who I am!
I love working for Uncle Sam
Lets me know just who I am!
Sir, No Sir!
Sir, No Sir!
Sir, No Sir!
Sir, No Sir!
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Something's got to give, something's got to give
Something's got to give, no more hopelessness"
