Content warning: R1: extensive still photography of mutilated bodies, including children, as well as mutilated dead bodies and mutilated survivors of armed conflict in Algeria in 1957. R2: Brief still images of mutilated bodies in the Algerian War.
"Right-wing film arguing that the civil rights movement and urban disturbances of the 1960s were evidence of a worldwide communist revolution and dominance at home. The polemic warns that communists may be planning to create an independent African American state. Includes purchased news footage." (Paraphrased from Rick Prelinger, The Field Guide to Sponsored Films, p. 6).
R2 documents civil rights movement in U.S., framing civil rights as Soviet influence.
