Don't forget the Haymarket massacre , conservatives should thank the anarchists that died for their rights to a fair wage their rights to an 8 hour work day, their rights to sit on their asses on weekends. Yes Glen Beck we socialists are very bad LOL :D .

Another thing that tends to slip from history are the events of May 1968
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_68

The Spanish Revolution is nowhere to be found in history book either.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Revolution

On 24 February 1966, Kwame Nkrumah, the President of Ghana, was overthrown in a military coup backed by the CIA while on a state visit to North Vietnam and China.

In 1953, the CIA worked with the United Kingdom to overthrow the democratically elected government of Iran led by Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh who had attempted to nationalize Iran's petroleum industry, threatening the profits of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. Declassified CIA documents show that Britain was fearful of Iran's plans to nationalize its oil industry and pressed the US to mount a joint operation to depose the prime minister and install a puppet regime.[14] In 1951 the Iranian parliament voted to nationalize the petroleum fields of the country.[14]

1. We want completely free health care for all black and oppressed people.

no wonder Republicans were so upset when Obama first tried to bring in health care

Indeed, the republicans are very sectarian, everything in their worldview is black and white there are no different points of view, free health care or universal health care is just a basic right its nothing radical about it, everyone has universal health care besides the US. I personally never understood the republican's hue and cry over health care.

i think this actually explains why, they cooporations were paid to demonize it because they wouldn't make as make money from free health care, here one of the dudes who spun Michael Moore's documentary apologizes to him on tv, this is pretty much what Glen Beck now does, so i guess the black panther talk was just Glenn appealing to the racist part of his audience

Anteo Zamboni (April 11, 1911 – October 31, 1926) was a 15-year old anarchist who tried to assassinate Benito Mussolini in Bologna on October 31, 1926, by shooting at him during the parade celebrating the March on Rome. Zamboni, whose shot missed Mussolini, was immediately attacked and lynched by nearby fascists. The man who first detained him and identified him as the would-be assassin was cavalry officer Carlo Alberto Pasolini, father of film director Pier Paolo Pasolini. The event was used as political leverage by the fascist government to abolish liberties and dissolve the remaining opposition parties.
