DVD Reviews of 20 to Life: Life and Times of John Sinclair
DVD Review: 10 fer 2, john sinclair
Summary: 4 Stars
very informative piece of history,i did not know much about the white panthers and the political reasons for chasing after john. a well done doc,perhaps someday the laws will change and we can welcome him back to the usa.DVD Review: Superb docu about a counter-culture hero
Summary: 5 Stars
This is just superb! One and a half hours of brilliant film making about a modern day hero. Sinclair was a scapegoat for the Nixon administration but proved that if enough folk rise up against the powers that be, things can change - includes great footage from both then and now, some truly brilliant muisc [MC5, John and Yoko, Sinclair's own Jazz ensemble etc.] dynamic interviews and a wholly professional edit, this must rank as one of the year's finest documentary films. Highly recommended.DVD Review: A real history lesson
Summary: 5 Stars
If there is anyone out there interested in bypassing the official "story" about what the 60's were like... this is the way. A small grounp of dedicated people can make a difference. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has...
Description of 20 to Life: Life and Times of John Sinclair
John Sinclair first emerged out of his small-town Michigan background to forge a legendary course through the 1960s as a cultural activist, manager of the MC5, and Chairman of the White Panther Party. An early victim of the War on Drugs who faced 20 years to life in prison for giving two joints to an undercover policewoman, Sinclair served 29 months of a 9-1/2-to-10-year sentence before his legal victory on appeal changed the law for good. The long campaign waged by Sinclair culminated in a massive John Sinclair Freedom Rally headlined by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Stevie Wonder, Bob Seger, Phil Ochs, Allen Ginsberg and Bobby Seale that resulted in Sinclairs release from prisonGeneral DVDs
