Russian government has presented the Library of Congress with digital copies of ten American silent films that had been thought to be lost forever, but were found in Gosfilmofond, the Russian state film archive.
D.W Griffith's Birth of a Nation ...liberty to show the dark side of wrong, that we may illuminate the bright side of virtue.
GaryMax White fear and white flight to violence are two recurring themes in Birth of a Nation-- and these two themes still guide the enduring wars of the U.S empire-- perhaps it will be great if the world and millions of Russians get to see a Birth of the Nation along side Triump of the Will..

Following the US War between the States (it was not a civil war as sometimes called), it happened. What do you expect the film to show? Triumph of the Will is a propaganda film.
The greatest 20the Century silent American film was also the greatest racism film ever made in the 2th centure-- the Birth of a Nation.. The Birth of a Nation is more racist than Triumph of the Will. Is Russia going to restore the D.W Griffith's Birth of a Nation?
