I'm glad Anthony Reddie mentions that Martin Luther King, despite his weaknesses, was and is an heroic figure. Excellent introduction to the movie Selma.

I don´t understand why you don´t show the scenes. Without it, we can´t follow really deep the conversation.

definitely catching this!

Mr. Oppenheimer is a master. Best praise is to quote him: this is a transcript of part of his answer to a question at 44.42 into the video "... You spent many I think staring into the abyss with these films. Psychologically how gruelling did it get for you?" (Joshua answers the question after showing a scene from the Director's Cut of "The Act of Killing" which he describes as a chunk of the important passage in the two and a half hour version of the film that is missing in the short version and explains why). This transcript picks up his answer at around 50.41 "I went home that night feeling filthy - tainted, as though I had been the channel, or the film had been the channel, the occasion from which this horror had come up. And I went home, feeling awful, tried to sleep, couldn't, after a while fell asleep and had an awful dream - woke up couldn't sleep the rest of the night. The next day, I couldn't sleep, was afraid of the dream that it would come back. The next night I collapsed, the next night I had another nightmare. And that cycle of insomnia and collapse went on for about eight months - And it was difficult - to answer your question. To go into that space, this dark part of what it means to be human and not to flinch and to go in there insisting that every perpetrator I'm meeting is a human being - and that's the terrible, hopeful truth of this situation - terrible because it means any one of us could potentially be the same thing in another situation. If any of you grew up in Anwar Congo's or any of these men's families in 1950s Indonesia, come 1965, you might make different decisions, you would hope so, but you are very very lucky to never to have to find out. ... So it is a terrible truth that all the perpetrators are human, but it is hopeful too, because it means that actually among us there probably aren't monsters, or as Primo Levi put it, "There might be some monsters among us but there are too few to worry about." So essentially, we might be able to build a world where we care for each other better, where the bonds that connect us, which make us human - because we are not human as individuals - as an isolated individual I can't feed myself or clothe myself - like a baby rabbit, I would die for the lack of affection. We are humans from the bonds that connect us, and if we could look after those better, if we could practice empathy, if we could learn to care for one another, and to empathize with one another, even the most remote stranger - the people making the raw materials that go into our skin cream and mobile phones and putting together our clothing, if we could learn to practice empathy for everybody with whom we are connected, and we could learn to think critically and doubt what we are told by authority, if we could teach that to our children, perhaps this kind of behaviour, which should be truly unimaginable, might one day be unimaginable, rather than all too familiar and all too human. ... So it was painful to go into this place, it was painful to deny myself the escapism of saying 'These men are monsters and they just should be judged', it was painful to not give my self the comfort of saying 'My role is to judge them or build a case and condemn them', because after all the role of artists aught not to be that of a court. We aught to be trying to understand, not trying to condemn. We aught to be trying to emphathize - not sympathize. And we should take it for granted that our audiences are smart enough to understand that mass murder is wrong. If we don't understand that, we should get out of this business." 54.03

Interesting and important thoughts on the impact that we all have - in our individual capacity - in shaping and defining our history.
