"Pay no attention to the little man behind the curtain"......I must, in the spirit of honestly, b/c of my willingness to change my belief about something in the light of credible and after seemingly unbiased discourse, and after having been one to rarely have done so in the earlier decades of my life. 

I don't believe there is any absolute truth to define any event that involves societies, countries, events, and I don't put much faith into anyone who tries to suggest otherwise. 

I've learned, over a great deal of time, effort, and a lot of struggle to slowly let my ego take a rear seat, and I feel as though my ego had been one of the strongest forces between my beliefs and the degree of accuracy/truthfullness they were based on. Therefore, I merely want to try to share the exhaustive list of documentaries I've appreciated at one time or another. 

Not all of them are unbiased, nor likely very much more than the directors own bias ideas about some topic. However, that is for you to decide. The bias and oversimplified documentaries have just as much to learn from as those which I'd go out on a limb and say do a succint job in bringing it together; but always only a part of it. Never the whole thing. 

I know no more nor less than any of you and simply hope you enjoy any of the films included below. I will try to get around to deleting the doubles, non-docs, and trash as I can.  

List of Documentaries I feel accurately help you to create your own ideas about the society we live in; and how we'd gotten here.
