The End of America
From award-winning filmmakers Annie Sundberg and Ricki Stern (The Devil Came on Horseback and The Trials of Darryl Hunt) comes this provocative and expertly crafted film, THE END OF AMERICA, based on The New York Times best seller by the same name. In a stunning indictment of sweeping policy changes during the Bush years, author Naomi Wolf (The Beauty Myth) makes a chilling case that American democracy is under threat.
Investigating parallels between our current situation and the rise of dictators and fascism in once-free societies, Wolf uncovers a number of deeply unsettling similarities—from the use of paramilitary groups and secret prisons to the targeted suspension of the rule of law. With this galvanizing call to arms based on her recent book, she urges regular citizens to take back our legacy of freedom and justice. (Excerpt from endofamericamovie.com)

Annie Sundberg delivers a well presented informative talk, however in her own words ‘the moment they arrest/detain someone who she connects with “that’s when i stop, everyone has their limits and that’s mine” so correct me if i’m wrong please, but is she saying “when the going gets hot, the hot get going..?”, she even quotes what it was the founding fathers had to go through to to obtain the liberties, freedoms and rights the U.S. claim to have, yet as soon as it looks like some backbone is required, she’s off….?
Naomi Wolf is the speaker, not Annie Sundberg, the filmmaker. If it got to that point where she feared for her life, know that at least she contributed to this growing awareness of our country becoming more like a police state, which in itself takes some balls. Funny, since Naomi herself is considered a 3rd wave feminist.
WOW what a sexy woman in red, I realy like her.. ;)
This women speaks the true, people our government has been infiltrated by corrupt self centered/ selfish bugs. She is a motivational and intellectual person, therefore if you wanna wright something offensive against this informative Documentary, go ahead and smack your head against the wall, because your someone else’s *****.
The point of this documentary is to organize, collectively from becoming a tyranny. We must unite as a collective identity, and become the ones that keep our democracy from becoming a state of slavery.

She makes some good points. A decent watch.
Since i am watching all of these documentaries, will i be on the watch list?
None of these policies have been repealed under Obama. We live in a police state. Right wingers are being infiltrated now, thats the only difference…..
The left/right paradigm is a lie….
