Steve Bannon: The Trump Takeover

0 hrs 49 mins

America is more polarised than ever. Racial and social conflicts plague the political landscape. Disenfranchisement with the so-called global establishment continues to stoke the flames of unrest, spawning a wave of Nationalism, in recent years, across the US and further. None of which can be seen as a mistake. In the ever-changing world of politics, few strategists have gripped the strings of a political puppet as tightly as Steve Bannon. To Bannon, the West was in crisis and needed to deviate from its course. His time at the top, seen by many as amplifying the voices of the fringe alt-right movements, was seismic. From the inception of the Muslim ban to the controversial border wall, Bannon's ability to push his ideology goes largely unseen. Now facing time behind bars, we unmask the man that pulled the strings behind some of the most controversial political tactics in recent memory.

Alien Contact: Ancient Gods of Man

1 hr 10 mins

While Ancient Aliens may not have actually built the staggering ancient monuments that seemingly couldn't be built today with modern means, they likely influenced them. From Baalbek to Egypt and beyond, we are just now starting to make new discoveries long over due and the evidence is overwhelming. Our interaction with Aliens from other worlds pre dates the current historical records and researchers are uncovering more evidence than ever before of the true history of the world. It may turn out that we have been the Aliens all along, as the human species stands alone in its evolutionary apex of sentient creatures on the planet, while also proving to be the most destructive.

Free Renty: Lanier v. Harvard

1 hr 35 mins

Who owns the rights to the violence of the past - the victim or the perpetrator? Tamara Lanier is determined to force Harvard University to cede possession of daguerreotypes of her great-great-great grandfather, an enslaved man named Renty, taken by force without his consent. The daguerreotypes were ordered in 1850 by a Harvard biologist to support his poisonous theory of the superiority of the white race. The images remain emblematic of America's failure to acknowledge the cruelty of slavery, the racist science that supported it, and the white supremacy that continues to infect our society today. This David vs. Goliath story focuses on Lanier, tracking her lawsuit against the country's richest, oldest, most prestigious university.

We Are As Gods

WE ARE AS GODS offers a compelling deep dive into the many sides of Stewart Brand - creator of The Whole Earth Catalog, an influential member of Ken Kesey's "The Merry Pranksters," a founder of the modern environmental movement, and today a vocal advocate for bringing back extinct species of animals and plants. Brand's approach to his work and life influenced many, including Steve Jobs, who have gone on to shape our modern world. Now in his 80's, he looks to leave a legacy for the future with his Long Now Foundation and efforts to "enhance biodiversity through the genetic rescue of extinct and endangered species." The man who coined the phrase "we are as gods and might as well get good at it" is now under fire from former allies who believe he's gone too far, but Brand won't be easily deterred from a mission he feels is necessary to save the future of the planet.
