Viggo Mortensen, Mahershala Ali – „Green Book“ (2019)

Ob ein Film einen Oscar gewonnen hat, und wenn ja, wie viele, interessiert mich in der Regel höchstens am Rande. Bei diesem Roadmovie interessierten die hervorragenden Schauspieler. Und für die lohnt sich dieser Trip durch den rassistischen Süden der USA wirklich. (ARD, WH)

"But this should be clear. It was not the codified brutalities pervasive in the Jim Crow South that 'primarily' served as a blueprint for Hitler and his henchmen, Whitman argued. 'The Nazis drew on a range of American examples, both federal and state. Their America was not just the South; it was a racist America writ much larger,' he wrote. 'Moreover, the ironic truth is that when Nazis rejected the American example, it was sometimes because they thought that American practices were overly harsh: for Nazis of the early 1930s, even radical ones, American race law sometimes looked too racist.'

Just sit with that for a beat — America’s racist laws were sometimes too excessive even for the Nazis.

lucid.substack.com/p/shakedown

" #Trump & #Musk are not merely creating another #autocracy along the lines of #Hungary or #Turkey, with inspiration from South African #apartheid and the #JimCrow South. They are innovating the #authoritarian playbook with their power-sharing agreement and their chainsaw & wrecking-ball tactics."

Today in Labor History March 21, 1965: 3,200 people began the third march from Selma to Montgomery, Alabama, to protest racial violence. Earlier efforts to hold the march had failed when police attacked demonstrators and a minister was fatally beaten by a group of Selma whites. The five-day walk ended March 26, when 20,000 people joined the marchers in front of the Alabama state Capitol in Montgomery. This time they were defended by national guards and FBI agents. Soon after, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

European fascism was and has always been a response to the siren call of USA plantation #slaveocracy, #ManifestDestiny and post-Civil War #JimCrow. if capitalists have to pick between enriching themselves thru slavery or the labor of free citizens, they will go with slavery.

Karl Marx told us as much back in 1861:

#MAGA is the negrofication of the white middle classes.
