In reply to the discussion: Surgeon in ER insists 2 gunmen shot JFK [View all]Junkdrawer
(27,993 posts)8. That's what happened at the 30 yr. anniversary....Check this from Michael Parenti:
THESE TWO PROGRAMS WERE CONSIDERED LOST
- I LOCATED COPIES OF THE MASTERS:
The JFK Assassination and the Gangster Nature of the State
When Oliver Stones movie JFK opened in December 1991 a huge PR campaign was mobilized against the film. Even progressives spoke out. Noam Chomsky wrote in support of the Warren Commission's findings in contrast Michael Parenti gave one of his highly acclaimed talks criticizing the lone assassin theory. The bitter questions that haunted defenders and critics alike was whether government agencies of a democratic country would do such a thing as assassinate an elected President.
In this talk Michael Parenti turns to that question first he examines, in part one, what he calls the gangster nature of the state. In part two he goes over details of the assassination and critiques The Nation, The Progressive, Chomsky and Cockburn. He spoke in Berkeley, CA, on the 30th anniversary of the JFK assassination. This is one of many "standing ovations" talks by Parenti. The master for this program was lost and this appears to be the only copy of the original recording.
