One of the most jaw-dropping documentaries of the last decade missed theaters entirely.
The film got snubbed by Oscar voters, too. Few, if any, mainstream critics so much as gave it a glance. That didn’t detract from its power and importance.
“The Fall of Minneapolis” examined George Floyd’s death and the cultural fallout in a way Legacy Media outlets wouldn’t touch. It featured body cam footage most Americans never saw and let the Minneapolis officers forced to watch their precinct burn finally have their say.
It’s the kind of documentary that could make you view the Floyd moment in an entirely new light. No wonder most media outlets refused to cover it.
Now, the team behind that film is back with another explosive documentary.
“Minnesota Mao,” just released for free on YouTube, explores the curious connections between Gov. Tim Walz and Communist China. We get snippets from Chairman Mao Zedong’s “Little Red Book,” his Communist manifesto, along with the governor’s most fiery critics.
The film compares Minnesota’s draconian COVID-19 lockdowns to brutal Chinese politics and shows how many of Walz’s preferred quotes come painfully close to Mao’s book snippets.
Gov. Walz announced earlier this year that he won’t be running for another term, a move likely tied to the rampant fraud in his state. He still remains a national figure, one deserving of serious scrutiny.
Legacy Media outlets won’t do the honors. Minnesota media, specifically The Star Tribune, all but serve as Walz’s protection racket.
Enter “Minnesota Mao.” The crowdfunded documentary went live on YouTube on June 4, the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre in 1989.
The film features several Walz critics, including a college professor fired for not getting the COVID vaccine and former Minneapolis police officer Tou Thao, who served time for his involvement in Floyd’s fatal police encounter.
