Attack on Black liberation group MOVE: The day Philadelphia bombed its own citizens • FRANCE 24
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 фев 2025
- The Black liberation group MOVE was founded in 1972 in the US city of Philadelphia. It combined a wide array of ideologies, including environmentalism, animal rights and an end to capitalism. The group's activities were closely watched by law enforcement, at times leading to armed confrontation. Tensions peaked on May 13, 1985, when the Philadelphia police bombed the MOVE house, killing 11 Black people. Despite two grand jury investigations and a civil suit, no one was ever criminally charged for the bombing. More than 35 years later, FRANCE 24's correspondents returned to Philadelphia to revisit the day the city bombed its own citizens.

low down dirty government
People were being shot, yet no cops or fireman suffers gunshot injuries in 1985
The only people who were shot were move members. 5children were shot and murdered after they were trying to escape the burning house. They took the body of the 14 and 13 old girls and we're parading and taking pictures with their remains last year.
Well one cop was killed at the first MOVE shoot out
@@Luke-id8qlthat is not relevant to this shootout
its kinda is@@benjamincox4211
A fireman and a CYS worker were shot before the bomb was dropped. I guess they comviently forgot to mention that.
City of Philly can never be forgiven for this
Then why y'all keep electing the party that did it?
Nope.
@@bufordmaddogtannen5164 who’s y’all?
@@bufordmaddogtannen5164 elections are fake lol 😆 you all still believe that wow. It's a selection.

When someone says "I have no reason to lie" it usually means you're lying. Yes, 35 years later either he's told himself the same lie until it has become his truth or he didn't really see what happened and he's going off other officer's words and how he heard everything happened. Life in the flesh is temporary the hereafter is eternal. Did those who had done anything wrong get away with their crimes from that day? Or will judgment be given by a higher authority?
Wow I never knew this happened in Philly I’m glad I found out about this
Neither did I
I grew up about 60 miles from Philadelphia. I just assumed that the whole country knew about this because in Pennsylvania, it was such a huge story. It was only a few years ago that I realized it's almost completely forgotten in the rest of the country.
@@ressljs yup
Epilogue:
The houses that were rebuilt were constructed so poorly they had to be rebuilt again. The house that the bomb was dropped on, has been occupied 24 hours a day by the police department for the purpose of preventing move members from coming back. In 2021 it was revealed that the remains of the children who were killed were given to the University of Pennsylvania and Princeton University for classroom teaching and research without the consent or knowledge of the family. Today the city which still pays about ten million dollars a year to settle police abuse lawsuits now forbids police from pulling over any vehicle for minor violations. The mere fact that they knew six children were in the house at the time should have been enough to stop them from dropping the bomb on the house.
@@plowe6751 they didn’t board up homes that were damaged by the bombing and ensuing fires. There was nothing left of 65 single-family homes.. the fire department was prevented from making any attempt to put out the ensuing fires.
@@harrowgateguy
Wow, who was the mayor back then?
Indeed..too much adrenaline and testosterone in police these days too.too many innocent shootings by police these days
@@fry2055 Wilson Goode was Mayer. When asked how he could allow the police to keep fire departments away he said he had poor reception on his TV, which made it look like they were pouring water on the fire
They talk about law like they have been following it their entire life. They were no more or less than criminals. Although, the bombing was unnecessary. It's like using an Elephant to crush a mouse.
Why are they considered criminals because they didn’t agree with the American government’s policies on the treatment of Blacks ? They didn’t break any laws? So why label them as criminals? The people who broke into the US Capital on January 6 are the REAL criminals.
Wilson Goode knows EXACTLY what happened but has been tight lipped ever since....
Now Palestne, Conqo, same thing. Save the children.
I heard the gun fire early that morning. I smelled the smoke when the house was on fire and wondered where were the fire truck sirens. I knew people were dying. VERY SAD!
The cop is lying.
Basically the neighbors complained about a bad nieghbor and the police came and started harrasting this address until this happened ....
You really make it sound so simplified. It is so complicated.
@@LadyGraceAinslie I could go into to all of that ...but basically....(like I said)
That’s one very understated way to put it
@@valerierodger you are right
This was no reason to hurt these many people
Thank you for this video
If you ask me, she got away light. The pain and suffering they inflicted upon the neighbours was horrendous. Not to mention the terror they maintained in the locality.
@@rageagainstmachineo1491 Well, no one is asking your ignorant behind anything…..
City of brotherly love
The " philadelphia" means that in Greek. It's not a " throw away" slogan.
If that was a white neighborhood, more caution would’ve used!
Why do all the citizen stay back and do nothing and watch they should be anger and they should be there just like they were three and a half years ago during BLM? Why the double standard on the community's part of African-American and police and government brutality?
MOVE wasn’t just some hippie civil rights group, they destroyed the neighborhood, and their neighbours wanted them gone - they just didn’t appreciate their own homes being destroyed in the process
I'm a Pa native..not from Philly area.but I remember that as a kid back then .I hadn't really comprehended it all thn.seeing these stories now,I surely understand it all..too much adrenaline by those involved surely a bomb shouldn't have been used.. something else should have been tried somehow but we know wasn't.but yet this continues today between police and citizens.moost aren't like this fortunately but other incidents are as bad these day..
It's a travesty of justice that the City of Philadelphia officials weren't held accountable for excessive use of force.
The police and city were wrong. Absolutely.
The move house was abusing the kids with malnutrition having to eat raw chicken. And using speakers that were big. Really big. Yelling, cursing, and doing it through the night and day time. Being truly anti social to the neighborhood. The people of Move were doing the wrong things in intentions and actions. People having to go to work suffering from lack of sleep, and stress of it continuing. This tragedy could have been prevented. And the fact the water was turned off when it was needed was part of the revenge.
. It would have been far smarter to cut off the electricity stopping the speakers from being able to be used. And using intelligence with compassion would have stopped this from happening. The involved cops were the criminals that were far worse. They were murderers, and evil at heart.
The city did the worse though. They used backed power to kill the members of this group and to bomb a house was criminal beyond words. And heart breaking beyond imagination.
The involved power that was and cops should have joined any one else sent to prison with far longer time in prison.
The move incident and the White House incident is a sad part of American history
No, it was a brave statement by the city of Philly (with a black mayor at the time) to fight back against the radical lunacy of violent criminal gangs like "Move." They were hated by their neighbors, and it's only the SJW Woke media and similar commie stooges who lament the demise of toxic fiends like "John Africa' and "Mumia Abu Jamal."
what white house incident?
@@funghoul9124 He's trying to compare the Move shootout with the Jan 6th silliness.
@@wehaveasituation The January 6 Insurrection and the Move bombing were 2 of the darkest days in American history.
@@wehaveasituation Jan 6 had nothing to do with the White House. Nobody rioted there.
God people are stupid.
This was so hurtful
What do you expect?
That's USA.
This happened under a black mayor tho 😂
Mass murder country unless it comes to births 😁
@@dick8997 it’s almost as if anyone of any race can hold up oppressive structures against the people😱
Philly hasn't changed at all the cops are still as violent.
And the criminals aren't???
Cops take an pledge and are held to a higher standard
The judge was a cu**
The blood of martyrs and saints and the innocent will never go in vain... BABYLON is falling
Move is not innocent. Ignorant maybe but not innocent. The children were innocent victims.
Wilson Goode. Tragic.
Yet somehow he was rehabilitated into being a victim of the incident, rather than the responsible party.
Funny how things can morph when you have the right melanin.
How interesting, it was black Mayor Wilson Goode’s tenure. This story made
no mention of that.
I’m sorry that your parents hit you
@@dmo8843
You look like everybody hits you
Yes it did watch again 😉
Go to 7:22 and you can see him on scene and the commentary.
This city told the mayor that they’re going to put a small explosive to get the door open
Frank Rizzo was the Roman soldier who was dead set on destroying the community!
What???
@ you can read, can’t you…..
Haha "chop", "chaze".. History repeats itself....
Alistair Cooke and MOVE are two examples of careless examples as to the custody of remains.
Word to the wise, frank Rizzo.was a maniac., no holds barred. You see the result.
Rizzo wasn't involved in this.
Frank Rizzo was not the mayor. It was Mayor Goode!
They hanged sadaam for something similar
it doesn't matter how far left or right you are we all need to agree the local cops don't get to drop bombs on row houses. Philly police didn't even have a helicopter back then, did they rent one? can you imagine being the rental company that rented that what did they say when they returned it? Because you all ready seen it on the news like thats my freakin copter what the F
They used Pa State Trooper chopper.
who made the order? a democrat administration lead by black Mayor Wilson Goode
I really this
He looks good This man was born in a jail
How is this guy 42 but born while his mom was in jail in 85? He can only be 36 or she was in jail for a previous offence
She went to jail in 1978
There is not a Giant Vat of WD 40 at PDs. Osage Ave was a major squeaky wheel. Cops hate squeaky wheels.
Everyone was wrong
@@GentleLentil127 definitely that night with your mother
Why France talking about us mind your business
You declared war that's what you get
The liberal media always playing the victim😂😂😂😂
I'm a native Philadelphian and I remember very clearly the day this happened because I was just a few miles away.. there's a lot of clueless people commenting here who have no idea of the background of this incident
Free MUMIA
What did they do that's wrong, they bomb?
Rizzo vs. move. Move lose.
It was Wilson Goode who OKed the 1985 bombing.
*I don't really know who needs to hear this but stop saving all your money, invest some of it if you really want to earn financial freedom*
Same here, I made $12,400 profits on investing since I started trading with Mr Michael Wayne his trading strategies are too notch am winning consistently trading with Mr Michael Wayne . He's really the best broker I've made a lot of profit investing with him.
People, sleeping people, tax paying, law abiding people have terrible reactions to generic noise. MOVE using a technique straight from the DPRK playbook was an escalator straight to hell. Sweaty Cops, Muggy Air, Demented Utopian Vision, Offensive Front Line NFL PD Goon Squad with Head Coach Frank Rizzo the Rx for disaster.
Best day ever.
Say what?
How come they don't do this to some LA neighbor hoods
@@ProperSendoff did it themselves in 92
The worst day ever is the day you were born.
I wonder how Syrians are reacting seeing this video…
Care to cover Le Code Noir (Black Codes) 1685, France? What? You didn't think we'd forget what you've done to us black people, the one and only true Jews by evicting us from all French islands in the first article and then forced us to be baptized in the Catholic, Apostolic, or Roman religion in the 2nd article?
they move people fired at the cops first so what do you expect.
