Analysis Salam talks with director of Let the Fire Burn
Over at the Vice Podcast, R Street Senior Fellow Reihan Salam chats this week with Jason Osder, director of the new documentary Let the Fire Burn. Comprised of local news clips and found footage, the film tells the story the 1980s-era confrontation between the City of Philadelphia and the radical left-wing black liberation group known as the MOVE Organization. An armed stand-off with police in 1985 ended with Pennsylvania State Police dropping two one-pound water gel explosive bombs from a department helicopter on the group’s West Philadelphia compound, sparking a massive fire.
