On May 13, 1985, a longtime feud between the city of Philadelphia and controversial radical urban group MOVE came to a deadly climax. By order of local authorities, police dropped military-grade explosives onto a MOVE-occupied rowhouse. TV cameras captured the conflagration that quickly escalated&mdash;and resulted in the tragic deaths of eleven people (including five children) and the destruction of 61 homes. It was only later discovered that authorities decided to \"&#8230;let the fire burn.\" Using only archival news coverage and interviews, first-time filmmaker Osder has brought to life one of the most tumultuous and largely forgotten clashes between government and citizens in modern American history.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <em>[source: <a HREF=\"https:\/\/rochester.indymedia.org\/node\/146908\">Rochester Indymedia website<\/a>, 2015-May-25]<\/em> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonight at 7 p.m. at the Flying Squirrel is a screening of the evocative and even-handed Let the Fire Burn (Jason Osder, U.S. 2013, 95 min.) as part of the Monday Mayhem programming.
