WE THE PEOPLE, WE THE POWER: FOR SYSTEM CHANGE NOW

Published

on


In honoring the universal declaration of human rights, Mobilized News and our broadcast partnership with Free Speech TV   is premiering our new feature documentary, “We the People, We the power: (System Change Now!”)

Filmed entirely in Ouro Preto, Brazil, WTP amplifies the story of how empowered communities of democracy loving citizens voted a wannabe dictator, Jair Bolsanaro out of office, installing a president focused on the future, and rose above the fomented and misdirected anger brought on by fascist enabled fake news, overcame misinformation and set things straight.

It’s an inspirational story focusing on how people worldwide can learn from what happened in Brazil as a role model for their own communities.

The 40 minute documentary is produced by Steven Jay of mobilized News and Directed by Christian and Amar Fernandez in Brazil.

The doc features Angela Davis, celebrated scholar Noam Chomsky and Aline Sousa, a leader in the recycling cooperative world in Latin America and a champion of human and civil rights.

A NETWORK TO AMPLIFY THE IDEAS INTO ACTION

But movies, books, conferences and television shows rarely change the world. Movements do.

To galvanize and harness the collective wisdom for real, long term system change, we have created an ecologically sensible media cooperative that unites movements and communities into an ecosystem of opportunity, a world of difference.

The mobilized News networks provides clarity above all in a world that is constantly changing,

We provide the understanding that the changes we want cannot be made in the current economic institutionalized systems;

To create the world we want, we must create new systems based on the original system, nature.

Mobilized News features an info structure dedicated to sharing this wisdom unconditionally;

  • News not noise;
  • Facts not fiction
  • Accessible and Translatable for all;
  • Ideas into action from the community level and on up,
  • Interviews with leaders making the transformations
  • So that together, we unite in Solidarity for a better way forward.

“We the People, We the Power (System Change Now)” tells the story of how an empowered public in Brazil came to their senses, joined forces, and  threw out their former dictator-like president and restored democracy in Brazil.

How can communities worldwide learn from this story and restore democracy and public health worldwide?

Please join us as we premier this 40 minute documentary in Early November, 2023.

To change the world, we need to change the story. A global transformation of systems, services and policies that serve all people, the planet, with purpose.

COMING THIS FALL!

  • Featuring: Aline Sousa – Angela Davis – Noam Chomsky – and guests
  • Directed by: Anthony Christian
  • Produced by: Amar Karz and Steven Jay
  • Executive Producer: Steven Jay for Mobilized.news

  • For the last several centuries, most of our existing man-made system services and policies destroyed what mother nature took billions of years to create.
  • Since humans created these system services and policies, humans can create natural long-term systems, services, and procedures dedicated to a healthier coexistence.
  • Real significant change never happens in a boardroom or conference center. It happens on main Streets everywhere, not Wall Street.
  • And due to the structure of transnational systems, we rarely hear the stories of what’s really working in communities worldwide.
  • People everywhere require full access to the wisdom in action without corporate interference.
  • In order to accomplish this, We the People will collaboratively enable  a real multimedia network dedicated to the changes we are creating in the world.  The Mobilized News Network is that resource for public service.  Communities can take part here.

We the People, We the Power: (System Change Now) tells the stories of social activists creating real change in their communities. And how your community can take action.

According to Executive Producer Steven Jay of Mobilized.News:

“Every year, tens of thousands participate in global forums, conferences, and expositions. Yet, hoping to create lasting change in the existing system, we find ourselves frustrated and disenchanted at every attempt.

Since we cannot create the changes we want within the current systems, we make the systems that enable the changes.”

It is time for a new story: What We, the People, can do now at the community level.

Lights! Camera! Action!

Lights: Shine the light on new possibilities for people and all life on the planet.

  • To shine truth on the overwhelming amount of disinformation;
  • To empower the wisdom we require to overcome the ongoing political and systematic threats that threaten the very existence of the human species and all life through endless wars and planetary obliteration;
  • To understand that system change is not just possible but necessary for survival;
  • That we already have everything we need to enable the new systems;
  • To ignite a movement for the whole system to change now.

Camera: Focusing on the ideas into actions needed for real economic and ecologic system change.

Action: Ideas in Action: This is what this film and the subsequent series intend to inspire—the stories of how change Is possible and is already happening.

Real people and real stories of actions that can not just save the planet but also change and implement the social, political, and economic systems needed for more abundance, peace, justice, and equality.

What is the significance?

Holistic, cooperative, and synchronized local actions for a better world.

“A world on a fast path to more centralized authoritarian control can only bring benevolent results for the same global elite power structures that got us here in the first place.”

Actual lasting benevolent change can only come through healthy, TRUE we, the PEOPLE democracies. Democracies are being confused and destroyed; we must transform FAKE need to AWAKE.”

The goal Is SYSTEM CHANGE. The energy to ignite it is a well-informed global citizenry in action. So we have built a cooperative media network dedicated to uniting us all.

Corruption, Greed, and Hate can only be eliminated through the democratic process that once worked but has been weakened. Systems under attack that we must take back!

An opportunity to correct the mistakes of the past and to build a new foundation for the future.

This involves a concerted effort for communities and initiatives and those working to communicate better and more precisely in an innovation ecosystem without borders.

What the Health?!? (Health for All: The Evolution of Wellbeing and the Global Healthcare Divide.”)

 

Introduction: 
Time Period: Present Day.   Set the stage by juxtaposing the advancements in global health and wellness with the ongoing dysfunction of the U.S. healthcare system. This introduction will highlight the paradox: while many countries have found ways to provide healthcare for all, the U.S. struggles with accessibility, affordability, and quality.

“Throughout history, humans have always sought ways to improve their health, extend their lifespans, and alleviate suffering. But despite incredible advancements in medical knowledge, many countries today face stark differences in how healthcare is accessed, distributed, and paid for. As nations grapple with the future of their healthcare systems, the United States remains an outlier, facing critical issues that threaten its healthcare system’s efficacy. Can the U.S. learn from the experiences of other nations to solve its healthcare crisis?”

Early Health and Medicine: The Beginnings of Human Health

Time Period: Ancient Civilizations (5000 BCE – 500 CE)

  • Key Event: First documented uses of medicine and public health systems.
  • Technology: Herbal remedies, early surgical techniques, public sanitation
  • Narrative:   The roots of healthcare lie in ancient civilizations, where medicine was often intertwined with spirituality and religion. Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and Greeks used herbal remedies and rudimentary surgical practices to heal wounds and treat illnesses. Public health in these early societies was focused on sanitation (e.g., the Egyptian Nile-based water systems, Roman aqueducts) to prevent disease outbreaks.
  • Interview: Historian explains the early connections between public infrastructure and the development of health systems.

The Middle Ages and the Plague: The Shift Toward Organized Healthcare

 Time Period: 5th Century – 15th Century

  • Key Event: The Black Death and its aftermath, emergence of the first hospitals in Europe.
  • Technology: Quarantines, the first hospitals, herbal medicines, basic surgical procedures.
  • Narrative: The Black Death (1347–1351) decimated Europe and brought widespread awareness of the importance of public health measures. In response, the first hospitals began to emerge, often run by religious orders.
  • Quarantines were implemented, laying the groundwork for modern public health practices.
  • Interview: Medical Historian discusses how the Black Death shaped early ideas of healthcare and social responsibility for health.

The Renaissance and the Birth of Modern Medicine

Time Period: 16th – 18th Century

  • Key Event: Advances in medical knowledge and the founding of public health policies.
  • Technology: Scientific methods, early vaccinations, and the printing press.
  • Narrative: The Renaissance sparked a revival in scientific inquiry, leading to major advancements in understanding human anatomy and disease. The smallpox vaccine, pioneered by Edward Jenner, was the first step toward immunization. Public health policies, such as quarantine laws and early forms of vaccination, were implemented to combat diseases.
  • Interview: Scientist/Doctor explains how Renaissance thinkers laid the groundwork for modern medicine.

The Industrial Revolution: Expanding Healthcare with New Challenges

Time Period: 19th Century

  • Key Event: Urbanization, industrialization, and the rise of public health infrastructure.
  • Technology: Germ theory, antibiotics, sanitation improvements
  • Narrative:  The Industrial Revolution brought both progress and new public health challenges. Cities grew rapidly, creating crowded conditions that led to disease outbreaks like cholera and tuberculosis.  Medical breakthroughs, such as Louis Pasteur’s germ theory, revolutionized understanding of disease transmission. In response, governments began to establish public health systems focused on sanitation, vaccination, and disease prevention.
  • Interview: Public Health Expert discusses how industrialization changed the landscape of healthcare and prompted public health policy in Europe and North America.

 

The Birth of the Modern Healthcare System

Time Period: Late 19th Century – Early 20th Century

  • Key Event: Creation of National Health Systems in Europe, emergence of the U.S. healthcare system.
    – Technology: Antibiotics, vaccines, medical insurance.
  • Narrative:   In Europe, the concept of public healthcare begins to take root with the establishment of universal health systems, starting with Germany in 1883 under Chancellor Otto von Bismarck.  Meanwhile, the U.S. healthcare system begins to take shape, driven by private insurance companies and the rise of modern hospitals.  Despite these advances, access to healthcare remains a privilege for the wealthy, particularly in the U.S., where private insurance dominates.
  •  Interview: Health Economist discusses the emergence of the modern healthcare system and the contrasting models between Europe and the U.S.

The Mid-20th Century: The Global Expansion of Healthcare

Time Period: 1940s – 1970s

  • Key Event: The creation of Medicare and Medicaid in the U.S., establishment of universal health systems in the UK and Canada.
  • Technology: Medical technology advancements, antibiotics, vaccines.
  • Narrative: The UK implements the National Health Service (NHS) in 1948, making healthcare free at the point of delivery for all citizens, regardless of income.  Canada follows suit with the introduction of Medicare, a single-payer system that provides universal health coverage. In the U.S., Medicare and Medicaid are introduced in the 1960s, but these programs cover only specific populations—seniors and low-income individuals.
  • Interview: UK NHS Official and Canadian Healthcare Expert provide insights into the success of their national systems and their effects on public health outcomes.
  • Interview: U.S. Health Policy Analyst discusses the shortcomings of the U.S. system, focusing on inequality in access.

The U.S. Healthcare Crisis: A System of Inequality

Time Period: 1980s – Present

  • Key Event: Healthcare costs skyrocket, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is passed, but many remain uninsured or underinsured.
  • Technology: Advanced medical treatments, insurance models, telemedicine.
  • Narrative: The U.S. healthcare system becomes increasingly privatized, with healthcare costs rising dramatically. The market-driven approach creates a system where access to care is often determined by wealth and insurance coverage.
  • The passage of the ACA in 2010 reduces the number of uninsured but does little to address systemic inequalities or the high cost of care.
  • Interview: U.S. Patient Advocate discusses personal stories of people unable to access necessary treatments due to the high costs.
  • Interview: U.S. Health Economist critiques the inefficiencies and inequalities inherent in the American healthcare system.

Global Case Studies: Healthcare for All

Time Period: 21st Century

  • Key Event: The success of universal healthcare systems in other nations.
  • Technology: Universal health models, telemedicine, data integration in healthcare.
  • Narrative: Germany: Germany’s universal healthcare system, funded by employer and employee contributions, ensures that all citizens have access to healthcare, with no major out-of-pocket costs.
  • France: The French healthcare system is often ranked as one of the best in the world, offering universal coverage that includes preventative care and wellness programs.
  • Japan: Japan provides universal health insurance and has the longest life expectancy in the world, largely due to a combination of public health policies and accessible healthcare.
  • Scandinavia: Sweden and Norway’s welfare models combine universal healthcare with high standards of care and equitable access.
  • Interview: German Healthcare Expert and French Health Minister discuss how universal coverage benefits both individuals and economies.
  • Visuals: Clips from healthcare settings in Germany, France, Japan, and Scandinavia, showing citizens receiving care.

The U.S. Healthcare Debate: Reform or Revolution?

Time Period: Present Day

  • Key Event: Ongoing debates around healthcare reform in the U.S.
  • Technology: AI in diagnostics, telemedicine, electronic health records.
  • Narrative: The U.S. continues to grapple with a healthcare system that leaves millions without coverage, despite technological advancements and improvements in medical science.
  • Proposals for “Medicare for All” or a public option are met with political resistance, while some advocate for incremental reforms to reduce costs and increase access.
  • Interview: U.S. Politician and Health Policy Expert discuss the political challenges and the potential for reform.
  • Visuals: Protests for and against healthcare reform, citizens navigating the complexities of U.S. healthcare.

Conclusion: The Future of Global Health

Time Period: 2025 and beyond.

Theme: Reflection on how nations might solve the global health crisis.

  • Narrative:  As global healthcare systems evolve, the lessons learned from nations that provide healthcare for all could hold the key to fixing the systemic flaws in the U.S. system.
  • Will the U.S. continue to be an outlier, or can it find a path to universal healthcare, ensuring that health is a right and not a privilege?
  •  Interview: Global Health Expert speculates on future health trends, including technology’s role in universal health access and how global solidarity can improve outcomes for all.
  •  Visuals: Footage of emerging healthcare technologies, global healthcare collaborations, and diverse populations receiving care.

This documentary would explore the history, challenges, and solutions surrounding healthcare, with a focus on the American experience compared to global models of healthcare for all. The goal is to provide clarity on how healthcare systems evolved and how lessons from successful countries can guide the future of American healthcare.
