"Us and Them" - a moving photo montage

[paineinthearse]

http://www.progressiveindependent.com/shalom/movies/UsAndThemLG.mov

The photo montage that accompanies the lines of Pink Floyd's "Us and Them" was put into a slideshow format by Joe Max, with the actual Floyd song, just makes this overwhelmingly passionate, humanistic and patriotic statement 1000% more powerful. A direct link to the file can be found at link above.

6. Very well done

and the song is a perfect fit. Joe Max boxed truth, tied it up with a bow and presented it beautifully. Ah, what a world we live in.

Recommended so more can see this.

9. Wow! That is good! It's as if the song by Pink Floyd was written for the

events going on.....

Tell's a very sad and sobering story indeed....

40. The music for 'Us and Them' was originally written for "Zabriskie Point"

the film, for a violent riot sequence, but the director didn't want it. I don;t think the lyrics were written for the film, though.

[Gruenemann]

27. I was there!

Also ran into David Gilmour in the Napoleon House...

[Arkansas Granny]

36. You lucky thing! We didn't get to meet anyone (as far as I can remember)

Enjoyed the concert tremendously. We were waaaaaaaay up in the nosebleed section. One of the best I've ever been to. New Orleans is a great place.

19. Thank you -- it is all so hard to absorb...

The pics keep flashing through my mind, all of them, and more, over and over.

It helps to see them outside my head - to know that others are seeing what I am seeing, to know that I am not alone.

38. At the end, the web address for the Red Cross is

given....did the Red Cross pay for this to be done? I have been hearing that the Red Cross has been failing at getting food and water to people...STILL!

The head of the Red Cross is a big donator to the Repukes. Where is all this money that the Red Cross is getting going?????? I am beginning to think it is being run just like FEMA...has anyone looked into this?
