Visit https://www.patreon.com/PeriscopeFilm Visit our website www.PeriscopeFilm.com Made in 1972, "The Riot Makers" was produced by the International Association of Chiefs of Police and U.S. Department of Justice. The film presents an investigation into the causes of racial and campus disturbances that characterized the late 1960s. This controversial film opens with a timeline of major riots following the 1964 Harlem unrest and Martin Luther King Jr.'s 1968 assassination, arguing that social and economic issues, though significant, were not the sole causes. The film claims that trained agitators—referred to as "Lenonoids" after Lenin—systematically used techniques of mass manipulation, propaganda, and preconditioning to incite violence. Prominent figures like Abbie Hoffman, Rennie Davis, and Tom Hayden are profiled as examples of this new breed of activists, allegedly using discontent and media exposure to provoke chaos for ideological or personal reasons.The conclusion is that the Leftist movement in the U.S. had its roots not just in the Soviet Union, but in Hitler's Germany. Each provocateur was “a graduate engineer in social demolition." 0:00 – Introduction begins with a depiction of widespread urban unrest, starting with the Harlem riot in July 1964 and escalating to 105 major riots over the next three summers. 0:43 – The assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in April 1968 leads to violence in 140 cities, prompting federal intervention. 1:14 – The "riot era" begins, sparking national debate over its causes, with emphasis shifting to agitators who intentionally incited violence. 2:46 – The film claims civil disturbances are not spontaneous but strategically orchestrated, comparing agitators to trained revolutionaries. 3:03 – Riots are described as engineered events, much like chemical or engineering processes, using calculated slogans and agitation. 4:34 – Lenin is identified as the pioneer of modern riot tactics, using propaganda and manipulation to spark revolution. 5:39 – Hitler's tactics of psychological terror and propaganda are shown as directly inspired by Lenin’s methods. 7:20 – The film introduces the term "Lenonoids" to describe modern agitators—trained experts in social disruption without necessarily adhering to Leninist ideology. 8:02 – Key figures like Abbie Hoffman, Rennie Davis, Tom Hayden, Howard Emmer, and Rap Brown are profiled as leaders in 1960s radical activism. 10:01 – The agitators' motivations range from ideological to opportunistic, and they employ a proven formula of riot-making. 10:30 – Stage 1 of riot-making: Organizing, deploying radicals, and infiltrating mass media and discontented populations (like displaced farm workers). 12:13 – Newark is highlighted as a case study in how radicals used anti-poverty programs and grievances to build power bases. 13:26 – Similar radical activities are seen on college campuses, often masked as free speech movements, aiming to disrupt and recruit. 14:39 – Organizers use methods like monopolizing student organizations, making unreasonable demands, and preying on idealism. 15:42 – Stage 2: Preconditioning people to riot via groupthink, peer pressure, and unifying them through shared enemies. 17:47 – Propaganda and slogans are critical tools for inciting group hysteria and emotional mobilization. 18:39 – Stage 3: Execution of the riot—starting small, attracting media attention, and escalating through trained tactics. 20:15 – Newark riot example: Sparked by rumors of police brutality, quickly exploited by organized radicals to incite mass violence. 22:52 – Newark's televised unrest influenced riots in Detroit and beyond, showing the contagious effect of media coverage. 23:12 – Universities also faced disruption via radical crowd control tactics, communications setups, and staged conflicts. 23:58 – Violence is framed as a recruitment tool—students radicalized after confrontations with police. 24:02 – Rioters are depicted as increasingly militarized, using homemade weapons and escalating tactics.
