People keep talking about jones did this but will say blaque people need to take responsibility for there own actions in life an not blame influencers like racist whhte people in the unite state’s government who put drugs in our communities but your saying Jim jones is to blame for killing 900 people when he didn’t directly kill anybody now that contradicts the take responsibility for your own actions if your blaming jones for the 900 people who died when he didn’t inject anybody he never shot the congress man so how did he kill anybody ?
Thank you for this video. All i can usually find is airplane shots of Jonestown with the little white roofs and the pavilion. But i like that you showed what it actually looked like other than those pics. It looked like a beautiful town considering they did it all by hand. And the intent was beautiful. Its just so sad that Jones had to ruin it all.
Jones intent was something else but he’s a deceptive racist just like his ancestors so he told them it’s for this when it was for something else got them to do what he wanted to said take your life’s but the blame directly goes to the adults who listened to him I won’t blame jones for everything cause he didn’t do anything he didn’t murder nobody there the moms killed there babies
Incredible that they try to bury this history. I expect my account to be deleted eventually but I hope a lot of people who listen are copying what I uploaded.
@@henrybemis8913 the reason is that the public only worship whoeever serves their indulgences, the amount of brain cells we've lost in the past 5 years I can see Jonestown happening again
@@nickyjames1985 be responsible for you and yours. Educate yourself and them so this doesnt happen again. Not sure what the past 5 years has to do with Jones town.. if you should be worried about something its communism which is far left. That set up is living hell
I’m late to this convocation but it looks like these pictures were taken right after the bodies were removed , however there are pictures online that show Jonestown in 1979 almost 1 year later and all the buildings and everything were still in good condition. I did research and from what I found is that Jonestown was used for some time by the GDF for training purposes, and supposedly the Jonestown was intact going into the mid 1980s, then I read that there was a fire sometime in early 1985 during the dry season that burned some of the cottages down, then shortly after that locals started dismantling the remaining structures and hauled away the tin and the wood to use for other things. i wish there were pictures from the early 80s but i cannot seem to find any pictures later than 1979.
This place was looted as soon as everyone was gone! The villagers stole anything that was left there! They dismantled the houses and used the materials for their own shacks, or if they were lucky they stole the entire cottage! They took anything and everything that they could get there hands on! Just the roofs on the cottages were in high demand, because the people there were (and probably still are) so poor they just lived in shacks! You actually think anything was left there??! This is like building a community and leaving it in the Bronx! 😂🤣
So folks you see how.. if you dont know your bible cover to cover then any smooth talking preacher with a positive can do attitude may draw you into his death cult..
@@LucySkyDiamond AMEN! one of my favorite verses! I learned dispensationalism from reading that verse and figuring out what "rightly dividing" means I also got out of a cult by studying my bible.
Jones' expert manipulation was in using the bible to denounce the bible in it's own words -- a source of confusion to his parishioners that gradually over time desensitized them and made them very easy to control. His "The Letter Killeth" is a textbook example of this.
I guess I'm saying likewise that the truth is in the real Word, which is why to avoid the charlatans it's important to read the bible and not let it be interpreted for you.
I wound up turning the volume down. There are more interesting people to listen to talking about Jonestown. Jackie Speier, Tim Reiterman and the sound technician ( can't remember his name ) who survived the shooting at the airstrip are very good at retelling the story. Leslie Wagner Wilson who escaped with her son and a few others into the jungle the morning of the mass suicide/murder is very interesting to listen to as is the late Vernon Gosney. The gentleman speaking on this is using a lot of words to say nothing.
1:00 This guy claims he to had to "assist the plane all the way" in guiding it as it flew above the clouds. How exactly would he have done that? That's not how navigation works.
Most of the photos were probably taken in 1979. After the murders. There are no signs of life. Just destruction and what was left after the elements (and looters) took their toll. Of course some photos were archival photos of the place when it was occupied, but some were taken a year after the massacre.
Maybe this audio was released in August 1979. Those photos are not from 79. The place was already starting to become rundown by then, although it was maintained for a while afterwards.

Jones was good at forcing peoples temple members to put on a good show, whenever they had visitors.

The photos are far more interesting that this gentleman's babbling. Really hard to follow at times. His storytelling is poor.

Goodlett visited Jonestown in August 1978, 3 months before the mass murders.
The Jonestown Express were AWESOME
Goodlet was a despicable jones apologist.
Reminds me a bit of those apologists for Stalin’s USSR “we have seen the Future and it works “ and then there was the terrible reality
'79? I think not.

Exactly what I was thinking.
They are stock photos
Indeed!
This cannot be in 1979. The settlement met it's tragic end in late 1978. That makes me skeptical of this narration
Maybe this audio was released in August 1979. Those photos are not from 79. The place was already starting to become rundown by then, although it was maintained for a while afterwards.
If you'll notice, in most of the images, there *are no people there.* The narration is incongruous, describing a time when there were people there.
