History
----
BigShoulders Digital Video Productions was founded by Frank Hanes.
The name BigShoulders comes from the poem “Chicago” created by Carl Sandburg in 1916.
Hog Butcher for the World,
Tool Maker, Stacker of Wheat,
Player with Railroads and the Nation's Freight Handler;
Stormy, husky, brawling,
City of the Big Shoulders:
They tell me you are wicked and I believe them, for I have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys.
And they tell me you are crooked and I answer: Yes, it is true I have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again.
And they tell me you are brutal and my reply is: On the faces of women and children I have seen the marks of wanton hunger.
And having answered so I turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and I give them back the sneer and say to them:
Come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning.
Flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job, here is a tall bold slugger set vivid against the little soft cities;
Fierce as a dog with tongue lapping for action, cunning as a savage pitted against the wilderness,
Bareheaded,
Shoveling,
Wrecking,
Planning,
Building, breaking, rebuilding,
Under the smoke, dust all over his mouth, laughing with white teeth,
Under the terrible burden of destiny laughing as a young man laughs,
Laughing even as an ignorant fighter laughs who has never lost a battle,
Bragging and laughing that under his wrist is the pulse, and under his ribs the heart of the people, Laughing!
Laughing the stormy, husky, brawling laughter of Youth, half-naked, sweating, proud to be Hog Butcher, Tool Maker, Stacker of Wheat, Player with Railroads and Freight Handler to the Nation.

Democracy in the United States is based upon principles laid down in the American Declaration of Independence promulgated in 1776. The primary principle in that document is the principle of equality as stated in the phrases "all men are created equal" and all men are "endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights." The American version of the democratic political philosophy holds that all humans are born with equal rights and as such are entitled to equal treatment. Some Americans do not believe in that principle and while the United States itself does not perfectly meet that standard, nevertheless it is generally acknowledged by many Americans that the principle of equal rights is valid and should be observed and enforced in their society.
Basic to the American version of democracy is the belief that human rights are "God given" and do not come from nature or from the state but from God. This viewpoint holds that the idea of creating humans and giving them equal rights had to occur first in the mind of the one doing the creating - God. The concept of being "created equal" originated with the Creator and it presupposes the existence of the Creator as does the concept of being "endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights." Both concepts are stated in the U.S. Declaration of Independence. Many Americans believe that document clearly establishes God as the author of human rights.
Thomas Jefferson was the primary author of the American Declaration of Independence, but it was Abraham Lincoln who clearly defined the principle of equality as Americans and others understand it today. Jefferson owned several hundred slaves all during his life and while he is greatly honored, among other things, for urging all people of the world to reject tyranny, nevertheless it is reasonably certain he did not believe that all persons were entitled to equal rights, only to "certain rights," the phrase he wrote in the Declaration. But Abraham Lincoln believed that all persons everywhere were entitled to "equal rights" and that is how Lincoln chose to interpret what he referred to as "Jefferson's principle." In a speech of July 17, 1858, prior to the commencement of the Lincoln-Douglas debates, Lincoln said "I do not understand the Declaration to mean that all men were created equal in all respects... but I suppose that it does mean that all men are equal in some respects; they are equal in their right to 'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,'" the doctrine of equal rights for all. His opponent in the Illinois senatorial election of that year, Stephen Douglas, interpreted the Declaration to mean among other things that only white men were entitled to govern. Lincoln accused Douglas of engaging in a conspiracy to nationalize slavery . He changed the phrase "certain rights" to mean in actuality equal rights. His interpretation was not only eventually accepted by almost all Americans, but it is also accepted by democratists in many parts of the world.

The Marx-Muhammad Pact (referring to Karl Marx and Muhammad), also known as the Leftist-Islamist Alliance, the Marxist-Islamist Alliance or the Red-black Alliance, is a political neologism that refers to the phenomena of cooperation and mutual support between some Western left-wing (in particular the far left) and radical Islamist groups which has emerged in predominantly Europe since the September 11, 2001 attacks and the start of the "War on Terrorism".
The term "Marx-Muhammad Pact" was coined by William S. Lind, Director of the Center for Cultural Conservatism at the Free Congress Foundation. In an article in the aftermath of the 7 July 2005 London bombings, which were carried out by Islamic terrorists, Lind writes:
Iranian-born journalist Amir Taheri has written: "The European Marxist-Islamist coalition does not offer a coherent political platform. Its ideology is built around three themes: hatred of the United States, the dream of wiping Israel off the map, and the hoped-for collapse of the global economic system. Europe's hard Left sees Muslims as the new under-class in the continent".
