No Vietnamese Ever Called Me Nigger (1968)
Director: David L. Weiss
IMDB.com
Filmed at an anti-war march from Harlem to the United Nations in 1967 on the occasion of Martin Luther King's speech at the U.N in which he questioned the disproportionate percentage of black soldiers in combat in Vietnam. The title is a quote misattributed to Mohammed Ali on why he refused to serve in the war. Four hundred thousand people participated in demonstrations ion New York on that day. On-street interviews with black residents of Harlem are interlaced with the comments of three black soldiers who had recently returned from the war.

how do you open these files?
They're rar files.
i must be getting old, where are the links? this looks like an awesome documentary, i really can't afford to miss it.
same as above comment, I can never seem to find the links on this blog. it's really frustrating and I feel kind of like an idiot, but every time I go to grab something here I just end up giving up.
