I saw the film when you first released it. It made a huge impact on me that has lasted, because it's so measured, clear and comprehensive.

In order to watch it, I had to purchase it from Vimeo because Amazon was refusing to sell or show it at the time. Thankfully that shameful bit of censorship was challenged by Jason Riley, who exposed Amazon's censorship in the Wall Street Journal if memory serves me.

I told everyone I knew about the film, but nobody was interested. My theory is that since they were all progressives, they feared they would see something they didn't agree with or that would make them feel bad because they might have to confront the truth about what actually killed Michael Brown.

I'm thrilled that you've found a way to give the film new life, because its message is as relevant today as it was in 2020 and it needs to be seen. I intend to poke all the people who ignored it last time and see if the incentive of ABSOLUTELY FREE! can inspire them to watch it and learn something.

By the way, this blew my mind: "...the Oregon Department of Education recently decided that basic reading, writing and math skills are not required for students to graduate with a high school diploma." Which begs the question, if students can't read or write, or do math either, why bother to show up at all? What are they going to do all day in school, play dodge ball? What a cynical, diabolical way to treat young people. The so-called Oregon Dept. of Education needs to be overhauled from the ground up.

Thank you for making this film. I’m excited that it will be offered for free on YouTube. You and your Dad are truth seekers and truth tellers and I am grateful you. I’ve told so many of my friends about you and your Dad. I will continue to do so!
