I got it thru Kevin Epps website. This is probably the most real and upclose DVD you will ever see that explains the situation goin on in Hunters Point. With the Naval Shipyard closing years ago, it put thousands of workers out of jobs, and left toxic waste in the communities. But Big Block and Westmob were the main focus of the DVD and you get a lot of info and stories that the news doesn't know about even showing a drive by where a kid gets shot in the leg. I definately recommend this DVD for anyone that wants to know what's goin down in Frisco.

I have been to Hunter's Point a few times and I find it crazy that a ghetto community would be established on a hill with pretine views of the city, but what I didnt know was all the pollution in that area. I bet many of those residents will get some sort of cancer.

Can you say "Environmental Racism"?

The Yay Area is big on "environmental racism"
Google Port Chicago...

it's interesting, the only times the U.S. government has used weapons of mass destruction were against Black communities... 1st Tulsa, with the only U.S. bombing of U.S. citizens, then Port Chicago with them detonating an early A-bomb...

we should've moved back to Africa long ago...
