My founding fathers:

Today would be the perfect day for this double feature. America as a land of broken promises, but potential. Mohicans is on Prime, Insider is rentable. Watch on the biggest, loudest screen you got.

How I'm spending the 4th of July:

Please rise for our national anthem. youtu.be/VYOjWnS4cMY?...

What to the slave is the Fourth of July? ✊🏽🇺🇸

new metaphor just dropped

The Avengers (1985)

It blows my mind that it’s been 30 years since releasing this film. One of my proudest moments in my career. www.space.com/entertainmen...

Was unaware that yesterday was the 40th anniversary of this classic movie being gifted to the world and am *very* ashamed that I let that get by me (I have been kicking my own ass about it much of the day). I'm attempting to make up for it now. The flick is what This Movie Life is all about, for me.

This looks right out of THEY LIVE

Happy 250th, America.

Excellent list by @briantallerico.bsky.social of 10 movies by foreign born directors who saw the USA more clearly than its own directors did. So glad to see Robocop on here. www.rogerebert.com/features/thr...

A little #America250 read from me, your friend who hasn’t shut up about how stunning THE IMMIGRANT is for 13 years

not to get political, but America is real pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and i think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

I don't wanna see a single white person's shock about why militias of white supremacists march in the Capitol for the 4th of July when the founders were white supremacists who whipped the people they owned! Stop acting clueless about what your country's always been or you'll never get out of this.

And frankly fuck white people acting like they really care about white supremacist groups terrorizing DC. You care for what? Seeing overt bigots march is bad for your self image as American & that’s why it bugs you. Never once seen any of y’all care about how white supremacists affect Black folks.

So......to the white people that be on this app ALL DAY, making politics their whole personality, and policing Black people on this app every chance y'all get, why y'all not getting active when y'all see shit like this? Y'all need to be in the streets not tolerating the bullshit

R A C I S M : as American as apple pie

You know who's doing most to fight it & always has? Black people. So talk to the hand if you gotta problem with your country's white supremacy in your face because of your white guilt.

Whipped, raped, and trafficked, along with a hoard of other disgusting horrors they romanticized for the poor whites to feel included in white Malignant Narcissism to justify their cruelty of others.

Patriot Front came out of their moms’ basements, dusted off the Old Navy khakis, put on the white masks so they don’t get fired from their day jobs, and headed to Washington for America’s 250th birthday celebration. Four hundred self-described patriots, not one ounce of bravery.

For everyone who gets upset about "ACAB" you should watch how protective the cops are over Patriot Front and how abusive they are to ICE protestors

Literal underpants over their mouths; shirts, crotches and cracks soaked through. They marched for 15 minutes!

Of course Patriot Front is marching in DC, police are protecting them. Lots of ICE took off work today to participate, for sure.

This is funny b/c the neo-Nazis in Patriot Front hate Donald Trump. At best PF sees Trump as useful for pushing white nationalist rhetoric into the center of US politics. At worst, PF sees Trump/MAGA as controlled by Israel. Some PF guys like Avery Ruiz openly talk about harming Trump supporters.

I've had heat stroke before and for a long time thought I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I'd like to amend that now and wish heat stroke upon every single one of these fuckers

100 years ago.

I suddenly feel like watching INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS today after seeing these photos.

If you’re a white person who saw that picture and it crossed your mind to type any of these things please log off.

Perfect 4th of July image. Trying to exist while being terrorized

"Let America Be America Again"- Langston Hughes #July4th

Just here to post this again like I do every year, not only because Douglass was one of the founding philosophers of American liberty but because I am so moved by the kids Frederick Douglass’ descendants deliver “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July”

Never forget: Jesus died for your country. @theonion.com

FUCK

Immaculate vibes in NYC. July 4th here means people from many different backgrounds gathering together, sharing food, music, and cheering on ships from all over the globe.

The only Uncle Sam I acknowledge

Happy Fourth of July, New York City

The more things change when it comes to DC movies and the people in charge of them, the more they stay the same. #Supergirl #DCU

From feral outsider to blockbuster muse, Anya Taylor-Joy opens up about her unconventional path to Hollywood, her battles with director George Miller and her crazy crusade to get cast in 'Dune.' Read the full THR cover story: bit.ly/4ov8ijg

German police scuffled with protesters as the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) held its national convention in Erfurt. The event drew added controversy by coinciding with the 100th anniversary of a Nazi Party meeting nearby, a link the AfD rejects.

Russian attacks struck multiple Ukrainian regions, killing four people, including a five-year-old child and her mother in Sumy. Guided bombs also ignited a massive fire at a poultry farm in Kherson, where firefighters battled the flames under the threat of further strikes.
