This episode of It's The End of The World
And I Feel Fine

Not Synced
was made possible by contributions from
slaves like you; spank you very much.
-
Not Synced
... And I was horrified, y'know?
I mean, I'm frightened for my cops.

Not Synced
Chief Thomas Nestel reacting to this video.
-
Not Synced
Watch as the suspect Ernest Hayes,
who police say was avoiding arrest,
-
Not Synced
throws Septa police officer Samuel Washington
on the ground and pins him under a bench.
-
Not Synced
Police say he was wanted in connection with
a Septa ticket scam,
-
Not Synced
when officer Washington stopped him,
this is what happened.
-
Not Synced
The chief says not a single Septa passenger
called for help,
-
Not Synced
but this lady did take out her phone to record the fight.

Goooooooood morning, slaves
-
Not Synced
and welcome to another sedition of It's The
End of The World And I Feel Fine.
-
Not Synced
The show that asks the question
-
Not Synced
"What would you guys do
if you saw a cop getting beat up?"
-
Not Synced
"I asked that question of
lots of people on the street today,
-
Not Synced
most of them said they would
pick up their phones to record the fight."

Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] I am your host Stimulator, & it has been a hot second since i've done a fucking show,
-
Not Synced
but before we look at the riot porn
from Mexico and Brazil,
-
Not Synced
I'd like to pay tribute to Herman Wallace,
-
Not Synced
the badass freedom fighter who was locked up
in solitary confinement for 41 fuckin years
-
Not Synced
for co-founding one of the 1st prison chapters
of the Black Panthers.
-
Not Synced
Even though Wallace was dying of liver cancer,
-
Not Synced
the motherfuckin' state would not let
this valiant brother out.
-
Not Synced
That is, until the judge granted him freedom
just days before his death.
-
Not Synced
Wallace's case is not unique,
-
Not Synced
as dozens of political prisoners
-
Not Synced
in the united snakes
-
Not Synced
are denied medical care and humane treatment
on a regular fuckin' basis.
-
Not Synced
These folks gave up their freedom to fight for yours,

Not Synced
Speaking of political prisoners, Pussy Riot's
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, or Nadia,
-
Not Synced
has gone missing for a few days.
-
Not Synced
Russian prison pigs say
she is in transit to another jail,
-
Not Synced
but her peeps are worried about her safety.
-
Not Synced
Pussy Riot is a russian punk band
-
Not Synced
that got worldwide notoriety after rocking out a song
called "Virgin Mary Put Putin Away"
-
Not Synced
at an orthodox church in moscow.
-
Not Synced
The ladies were given harsh prison sentences
for expressing their rage at the russian president,
-
Not Synced
who has been treating this territory
as his own personal fifedom
-
Not Synced
since taking power over 10 fucking years ago.
-
Not Synced
Recently, Greenpeace activists have been locked up by russkie pigs
-
Not Synced
for trying to board an oil platform
owned by russian oil giant Gazprom,
-
Not Synced
and activists opposing a new anti-gay law
-
Not Synced
get routinely attacked by homophobes and the cops,
-
Not Synced
this is about to get more interesting
-
Not Synced
as the 5 cockrings of death
penetrate russian territory next year.
-
Not Synced
Buuuuuut Olympic repression is nothing new.
-
Not Synced
In the land of tacos right before the 1968 olympics,
homocidal mexican soldiers
-
Not Synced
fired upon and murdered hundreds of protesters
-
Not Synced
in what is now known as the
massacre of Tlatelolco.
-
Not Synced
Buuuuuut, like Anonymous, the motherfuckin' mexican resistance says
-
Not Synced
ehhhhh.... pentaco!
-
Not Synced
thousands of peeps rolled up into the streets of mexico city
-
Not Synced
to pay tribute to the fallen comrades.
-
Not Synced
Anarchists lit up the scene
by hurling molotov cocktails,
-
Not Synced
and fiercely beat back the mexican pigs.
-
Not Synced
Buuuuut, this insurrectionary moment was not limited to mexico city.
-
Not Synced
And anarcho homies in Oaxaca showed their fucking cochinos that what happened in '68
-
Not Synced
would never happen again.
-
Not Synced
Check this shit out.
-
Not Synced
The Oaxacan cops shouldnt be surprised
by this awesome demonstration of street power,
-
Not Synced
as memories from the 2006 insurrection
-
Not Synced
reminded them of the time when comrades and teachers kicked them out of their fucking city.
-
Not Synced
Speaking of pissed of teachers...
-
Not Synced
educators in brazil invaded the streets of rio
to demand higher wages.
-
Not Synced
Teachers have been on strike since august
-
Not Synced
but the government seems more keen
to spend money on other useless shit.
-
Not Synced
" The military has the money to support, to bring, olympiads, and the world comes,
-
Not Synced
where's the money for education and for our health
and for everything else? "
-
Not Synced
Black Blocs have been deployed on these protests,
-
Not Synced
once again bringing international attention
to this tactic of tactics.
-
Not Synced
I asked author Chris Hedges if he had been following the Black Bloc during the brazil teachers strike.
-
Not Synced
[ Hedges ] Y'know, I have been following that,
because the brazilian papers have interviewed me,
-
Not Synced
um, and, uh, a lot of people in the unions,
and a lot of people in brazil
-
Not Synced
are quite angry with the Black Bloc.
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] Actually Hedges?
You're dead fucking wrong.
-
Not Synced
Brazil's teachers union has vowed unconditional
support for people engaging in Black Bloc,
-
Not Synced
citing many instances in qhich anarchists protected the teachers from the violence of the police.
-
Not Synced
Alex Trentino, who is the general coordinator
of the teachers union stated:
-
Not Synced
Now, Hedges, are you finally fuckin ready
to throw your support behind Black Bloc?
-
Not Synced
[ HEDGES ] Sure.
-
Not Synced
[ PUSSY RIOT SINGING IN RUSSIAN ]
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] A few weeks ago i was
camping at a blockade initiated by
-
Not Synced
members of the Mi`kmaq Warriors Society
-
Not Synced
to stop a motherfracking mining company
called South Western Energy, or SWINE,
-
Not Synced
for exploring their traditional territory for natural gas.
-
Not Synced
This had been an escalation
after many motherfucking months
-
Not Synced
of people getting their asses beat,
-
Not Synced
by the murderous villains of the Royal Colonial Mounted Poniners.
-
Not Synced
or, RCMPigs.
-
Not Synced
[ SCOTT THOMPSON ] You loser!
-
Not Synced
You pig!
-
Not Synced
You piece of pork!
-
Not Synced
Whatre you got in there?
-
Not Synced
Like some bacon-cured PIG???
-
Not Synced

-
Not Synced
im a big pig! i'm a big pig!
-
Not Synced
SNORT!SNORT!SNORT!...
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] The Warriors held their ground,
stopping all motherfracking activity in the area,
-
Not Synced
until Roctober 17th
-
Not Synced
when over 200 beligerent, steroid filled pork stables
-
Not Synced
descended on the camp
like jack-booted fascist stormtroopers.
-
Not Synced
This has to be the scariest shit i ever been through,
-
Not Synced
but i managed to fake being a badass long enough
to avoid shitting in my pants.
-
Not Synced
[ HIGH PITCHED SCREAMING ]
-
Not Synced
In the end, the real heroes that day
were the folks from the community
-
Not Synced
who came to support the Warriors and
stood their ground until all the pigs were gone.
-
Not Synced
Oh yeah, and they managed to torch
6 of their fucking pigmobiles.
-
Not Synced
In the aftermath of the raid,
-
Not Synced
there's been much shit-talking about
the Warrior Society by the mainstream media.
-
Not Synced
"*...reluctant to crack down on
organized indian crime,
-
Not Synced
"as opposed to... organized hells angels crime
or mafia crime."
-
Not Synced
"So, it's not just a social guilt,
it's our politicians' fear."
-
Not Synced
"Oh, they remember the Oka standoff where heavily armed Oka Mohawk warriors"
-
Not Synced
"stared down the canadian forces and a
quebec policeman was murdered."
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] But in the end, those chode rockers don't really know shit about the Warriors.
-
Not Synced
" Warriors... come out to playayyy"
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] No nanananana not those Warriors.
-
Not Synced
These Warriors:
-
Not Synced
[ FROM FILM ] The warriors act immediately,
-
Not Synced
they use a front end loader abandoned by the Sûreté du Québec to make several barricades;
-
Not Synced
this time, on the main highway, the 344."
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] In 1990 the Warrior's Socirty gained international notoriety
-
Not Synced
for beating back both the canadian army
and the pigs,
-
Not Synced
from the Mohawk community of Kanesatake,
in what is now known as the Oka Crisis.
-
Not Synced
To find out more about the Warrior Society,
-
Not Synced
i spoke with Clifton Nicholas of Kanesatake.
-
Not Synced
Hey Clifton, how the fuck are you?
-
Not Synced
[ CLIFTON ] Im fuckin great, man.
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] Soooo... just what the fuck is
the Warrior Society?
-
Not Synced
[ CLIFTON ] I have to state, I do not represent the Warrior Society,
-
Not Synced
I do not speak on their behalf,
-
Not Synced
uh, and I don't even say "they"
-
Not Synced
because everybody has this misnomer that the Warrior Society is an organization, it's not.
-
Not Synced
It's a movement.
-
Not Synced
It's like... of course in the media they try to paint a picture like the Warrior movement
-
Not Synced
is like organized crime or some kind of
almost like a biker gang,
-
Not Synced
when we're not, it has nothing
to do with that.
-
Not Synced
There are people who confuse...
between beign a gangster and being a warrior.
-
Not Synced
There's a very big difference between the two.
-
Not Synced
There's a line that divides the two.
-
Not Synced
The warrior society is a movement
-
Not Synced
that came to, in the late 60's, early 70's,
-
Not Synced
kinda coincides with the start of the
American Indian Movement,
-
Not Synced
and also the rights movements that were going on during 1960's,
-
Not Synced
the Civil Rights movement and so on.
-
Not Synced
And the warrior movement just simply
a rekindling of the duties and responsibilities
-
Not Synced
of men and women in traditional societies,
and the roles & duties in defense of their people.
-
Not Synced
and it's part of the Longhouse,
the Longhouse people,
-
Not Synced
the Great Law, Gayanashagowa,
all governs the actions of this movement.
-
Not Synced
There are some, I feel that they take the movement,
they try and separate it from the Longhouse,
-
Not Synced
and try to separate it from that, try to have it, something that's gonna be self-regulating,
-
Not Synced
it doesn't work that way.
-
Not Synced
The warrior movement is part of the Longhouse,
-
Not Synced
the Longhouse controls the warrior movement.
-
Not Synced
And the warriors, there's no membership criteria,
-
Not Synced
except being Ongweoweh, meaning native,
being Indigenous,
-
Not Synced
and having Gayanashagowa in your heart.
-
Not Synced
Theres the warrior flag that you see from 1990
with the Mohawk on it.
-
Not Synced
That's one flag,
-
Not Synced
but the original Mohawk flag has a man and a
woman, this is what it's supposed to be right?
-
Not Synced
It's not a male-dominated movement.
-
Not Synced
It' the women who have a big part
to play in this movement.
-
Not Synced
And you hear the media talk about "well the warriors are hiding behind the women."
-
Not Synced
First of all, you don't tell a Mohawk woman what
to do, y'know, she won't take it from you.
-
Not Synced
She'll do what she wants to do.
-
Not Synced
And that's what... we've known that, we had that wisdom to say that women have their place,
-
Not Synced
and they have a right to do what they're doing,
and have a right to take part in everything.
-
Not Synced
So then in 1990 when you seen the warriors there, and the women were approaching the police,
-
Not Synced
tellin them y'know that they have to move,
you have to go,
-
Not Synced
what theyre doing is... they're not...
the men are not hiding behind the women.
-
Not Synced
The women are actually protecting our adversaries,
they're protecting them from us.
-
Not Synced
It's their duty and their role,
to first put that olive branch, right?
-
Not Synced
Bring out that laurel, here, lets discuss this,
let's negotiate,
-
Not Synced
and they refused to negotiate with us,
-
Not Synced
so then, y'know, the final step is the women,
the women pull back and the men take over.
-
Not Synced
And this is the thing, it's a big decision to make.
-
Not Synced
In the traditional world, the way we look at it as Kanien’kehá:ka people, which is Mohawk,
-
Not Synced
Kanien’kehá:ka people, it's the women who are in charge of warfare,
-
Not Synced
it's the women who call the shots, it's the women
who decide that men will go to war,
-
Not Synced
not men, it's not a male decision.
-
Not Synced
Women will say to the men "now you can go to war,
i'll bury the fire, put out the flames,
-
Not Synced
I put out the hearth, you can't come home to the hearth, there's nothign here,
-
Not Synced
"you have to go out and fight"
-
Not Synced
That's a woman's decision.
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] And can you explain
what the Longhouse is?
-
Not Synced
[ CLIFTON ] OK the Longhouse is, it's basically
what we call ourselves,
-
Not Synced
um, it's based on a traditional dwelling
that we used to live in,
-
Not Synced
which is an elongated family dwelling.
-
Not Synced
... a matrilocal dwelling, where the clan would live.
-
Not Synced
In our society, our lineage and descent
goes through the women,
-
Not Synced
so it would be the woman's, the matriarch's house,
-
Not Synced
which is long, with many fires for different families,
-
Not Synced
So you have a nuclear family of a mother, a father
or husband, and their child,
-
Not Synced
they'd be a family, and each of these families
would share a hearth with another one.
-
Not Synced
So it'd be an elongated house.
-
Not Synced
So the Confederacy of Iroquois Nations
-
Not Synced
we would call it our Haudenosaunee in Mohawk,
or Onandaga as Haudenosaunee,
-
Not Synced
which literally means The People of The Longhouse.
-
Not Synced
And this is a symbol of what we use
as a symbol of our people.
-
Not Synced
If you look on the spiritual and political end of it,
-
Not Synced
the Longhouse is the structure that was used
to meet and have ceremonies in.
-
Not Synced
So our political structures would be
in the Longhouse,
-
Not Synced
and our religious ceremonies would be
in the Longhouse.
-
Not Synced
So you hear the pan term "Longhouse",
Longhouse people,
-
Not Synced
you hear Iroquois people saying this often.
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] I've heard peeps say that
there's similarities
-
Not Synced
between anarchists and some traditional cultures,
what the fuck?
-
Not Synced
Yeah, as anarchists I think it's a natural thing,
-
Not Synced
for Haudenosaunee people to be anarchists.
-
Not Synced
I always liked the, one of the quotes, I don't know
what his name was,
-
Not Synced
maybe you could find it and research, he's a Jesuit,
-
Not Synced
who wrote about Haudenosaunee people,
and Mohawks in particular,
-
Not Synced
and I love what he said when he said
-
Not Synced
"Each and every one of them are sovereign
unto themselves,
-
Not Synced
they follow no one
and they take orders from no one."
-
Not Synced
So that, to me, speaks volumes
about being an anarchist,
-
Not Synced
you are sovereign unto yourself,
-
Not Synced
you know, you have no king,
you have no masters.
-
Not Synced
Our people, historically, did what they wanted,
when they wanted and how they wanted,
-
Not Synced
both the men and the women.
-
Not Synced
[ STIMULATOR ] Thanks Clifton.
-
Not Synced
And that about does it for this edition of It's The
End of The World As We Know It & I Feel Fine.
-
Not Synced
I want to say big ups to all who supported my work
in the past 2 months
