As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design.

Bill de Blasio MAIA LICHTENSTEIN Office of the Mayor SECRETARY 1285 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS City Hall NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10019-6064 New York, NY 10007 Phone: (212) 373-3974 Fax: (212) 757-3990 Dear Mayor de Blasio: [email protected] On behalf of the Civil Rights Committee of the New York City Bar Association, I write to congratulate you on your election as Mayor. As you plan your upcoming term of office, the Civil Rights Committee urges you to reform the New York City Police Department’s (“NYPD”) stop- and-frisk practices. Founded in 1870, the New York City Bar Association (the “City Bar”) has a longstanding commitment to promoting reform of the law and providing service to the profession and the public. Under the City Bar’s auspices, the Civil Rights Committee works to ensure that all New Yorkers are able to benefit from New York City’s vast resources and opportunities. As you develop your agenda, the Civil Rights Committee would be honored to serve as a resource to you on this and other issues involving the civil rights and civil liberties of New Yorkers. As you are aware, the vast increase in the use of stop-and-frisk by the NYPD over the past ten years has led to justifiable concern that police officers are stopping New Yorkers based not upon individualized suspicion of criminal activity, but rather based upon illicit profiling of characteristics such as race and sexual orientation.1 The City Bar has been a consistent advocate for reform to the stop-and-frisk program.

We've got some difficult days ahead, but it really doesn't matter with me now, because I've been to the mountaintop. I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will, and he has allowed me to go up to the mountain, and I've looked over, and I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you, but I want you to know tonight, that we as a people will get to the promised land. Martin Luther Jr.: I'm happy tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the lord. Joe Biden: 12 years ago, I was waiting at the train station in Wilmington for a Black man to pick me up on our way to Washington, where we were sworn in as President and Vice President of the United States of America.

  • A Single Organization Controls Almost Everything You See, Hear, and Read in the Media and They've Been Handpicking Your Leaders for Decades
    by Matt Agorist January 29, 2018 from TheFreeThoughtProject Website A single organization controls almost everything you see, hear, and read in the media and they've been handpicking your leaders for decades. It is no secret that over the last 4 decades, mainstream media has been consolidated from dozens of competing companies to only six. Hundreds of channels, websites, news outlets, newspapers, and magazines, making up ninety percent of all media is controlled by very few people, giving Americans the illusion of choice. While six companies controlling most everything the Western world consumes in regard to media may sound like a sinister arrangement, the Swiss Propaganda Research center (SPR) has just released information that is even worse. The research group was able to tie all these media companies to a single organization: the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). For those who may be unaware, the CFR is a primary member of the circle of Washington think-tanks promoting endless war. As former Army Major Todd Pierce describes, this group acts as "primary provocateurs" using, "'psychological suggestiveness' to create a false narrative of danger from some foreign entity with the objective being to create paranoia within the U.S. population that it is under imminent threat of attack or takeover." A senior member of the CFR and outspoken neocon warmonger, Robert Kagan has even publicly proclaimed that the U.S. should create an empire. The narrative created by CFR and its cohorts is picked up by their secondary communicators, also known the mainstream media, who push it on the populace with no analysis or questioning.
