MAE WEST: SEXUAL REVOLUTIONARY

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

During a period of history when women were thought of a the “property” of men, Mae West refused to be bullied into silence and submission by the patriarchal society of American and the Hollywood film industry.  She used her wit, her talent and her sensuality to man-handle the oppression of the age and mold it to her will.  Women (and men) in the Western world owe Mae West a huge thanks for her fearless assault on the stupidity and suppression of society.

Here is a video composite of some of her famous one-liners from a few of her films:

Mary Jane West (August 17, 1893 – November 22, 1980),known as Mae West, was an American actress, playwright, screenwriter and sex symbol whose entertainment career spanned seven decades. Known for her bawdy double entendres, West made a name for herself in vaudeville and on the stage in New York before moving to Hollywood to become a comedienne, actress and writer in the motion picture industry. In consideration of her contributions to American cinema, the American Film Institute named West 15th among the greatest female stars of all time. One of the more controversial movie stars of her day, West encountered many problems, including censorship. When her cinematic career ended, she continued to perform on stage, in Las Vegas, in the United Kingdom, on radio and television, and recorded rock and roll albums.

Mae West was the first of force Hollywood film makers to allow African Americans to be featured in film.  She used her influence to introduce Duke Ellington and His Orchestra in her films.

OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY AND HOW BANKERS USE IT

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

A quote from Chapter One of the book by Judge Louis D. Brandeis, published in 1913 “OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY AND HOW BANKERS US IT”

President Wilson, before he was President, said in 1911:

“The great monopoly in this country is the money monopoly. So long as it exists our old variety and freedom and individual energy of development are out of the question.  A great industrial nation is controlled by it’s system of credit.  Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men, who, even if their actions be honest and intended for the public interest, are necessarily concentrated upon the great undertakings in which their own money in involved and who, necessarily, by every reason of their own limiations, chill and check and destroy genuine economic freedom. This is the greatest question of all: and to this, statesmen must address themselves with an earnest determination to serve the long future and true liberties of men.”

In short, the Jewish Banking Establishment took over the United States money supply with the passage of the FEDERAL RESERVE ACT in 1913.

The Federal Reserve Act (ch. 6, 38 Stat. 251, enacted December 23, 1913, 12 U.S.C. ch.3) is an Act of Congress that created and set up the Federal Reserve System, the PRIVATE BANK of the United States of America, and granted it the legal authority to issue Federal Reserve Notes (now commonly known as the U.S. Dollar) and Federal Reserve Bank Notes as legal tender.

The Act was signed into law by President Woodrow Wilson.
