Life and debt - trailer--Jamaica No Problem?

covelogibbs
I know I keep saying it, but this is truly a "MUST SEE" film.

This was one of the first documentaries to really spell out how exactly the IMF works in third world countries. The way the agricultural infrastructure was retooled, food soverienty destroyed and dependence created. Its no accident that when international lenders issue billions of highly qualifies money to underdeveloped countries that they almost always endup bankrupt and internally restructured for export.

Feature film linked below. Enjoy!

    • Yu worthless
      Pass mi sword and mi cutlass
      You think is a laughing matter this

      Verse 1:
      You a try everything you have you trap set up
      And you plan is for one brother to hate the other brother
      And slay him so Babylon can crush him cup
      It's a pity many of the youths don't realize
      That you stray them with your dollars
      Give them your killing orders
      And turn around and sell dem out just like french fries
      But here is what you do, you use the youths like dem a tool
      For doing a bag a evilous things
      But woe be on to you for turning people pickney fool
      You shatter their hopes and dreams
      You can't deny don't even try
      You are the reason why decomposed bodies are often found
      But will not be for long can't escape with all your wrong
      Countless murders committed in towns

      Chorus:
      Fi di bag a people you mek a suffer
      Fi di blood money that mek you richer
      Oh oh oh Mr. Heartless you end it a go bitter
      Shall be bitter, shall be bitter
      Fi di youths you pay fi do the murder
      Al a di body whey dem dump in a gutter
      Oh oh oh
      Member you a go pay fa

      Rastafari teach you
      You no waan learn
      Well nuff a dem skin get burn
      Jah

      Verse 2:
      Check it out many times the innocent get slay
      And you same one name the killer
      To the crime stop media
      Collect reward while sufferer grieve in pain
      Mama face the hardest time to give youths education
      And end up loosing many ways for her is only wasted days
      No chance of getting back a fraction
      So youths you need to stand up strong
      Don't take no boosting from no one
      Take this advise I give
      Don't get red eye because a money just work and earn it honestly
      Don't say that I'm talkative
      A lot of youth like you dem use and heard it often in the news
      Most wanted for killing a few
      No follow them and loose your soul
      Just keep you cool nuh loose control
      Like others they will shake you up too

      Chorus:
      Fi di bag a people you mek a suffer
      Fi di blood money that mek you richer
      Oh oh oh Mr. Heartless you end it a go bitter
      Shall be bitter, shall be bitter
      Fi di youths you pay fi do the murder
      Al a di body whey dem dump in a gutter
      Oh oh oh
      Member you a go pay fa

      Remember
      Until the colour of a man skin is of no more significance
      Than the color of his eyes,
      Then shall always war
      Please know what life is for
      Jah, Rastafari

    • It's one world, one people folks, this is EVERY ONES PROBLEM.

      POEM

      Als die Nazis die Kommunisten holten,
      habe ich geschwiegen;
      ich war ja kein Kommunist.

      Als sie die Sozialdemokraten einsperrten,
      habe ich geschwiegen;
      ich war ja kein Sozialdemokrat.

      Als sie die Gewerkschafter holten,
      habe ich nicht protestiert;
      ich war ja kein Gewerkschafter.

      Als sie die Juden holten,
      habe ich geschwiegen;
      ich war ja kein Jude.

      Als sie mich holten,
      gab es keinen mehr, der protestieren konnte.

      Translation

      When the Nazis came for the communists,
      I remained silent;
      I was not a communist.

      When they locked up the social democrats,
      I remained silent;
      I was not a social democrat.

      When they came for the trade unionists,
      I did not speak out;
      I was not a trade unionist.

      When they came for the Jews,
      I remained silent;
      I wasn't a Jew.

      When they came for me,
      there was no one left to speak out.
