Obviously—I would hope—this video is a satirical take on the hypocritical celebration of freedom carried out over the carcasses of enslaved beings in honor of the Declaration of Independence made upon the genocide and subjugation of a native people and the ongoing enslavement of an entire race.
And while this video focused on America, which admittedly presents itself as a rather easy target, it’s important to note that this is a GLOBAL ISSUE. (See the speech linked in the video’s description on YouTube for more on the international scope)
Find more information on the deeper issues underlying this satire in the links provided in the video’s description on YouTube, where you’ll also find a link to the blog post with a slave's perspective on the 4th of July.
