Prohibition seems not to be about any of that but more about the desire to oppose a true desire to be free of pain, to be free of suffering, and in fact to be satisfied with life as nature provides in its raw form. It is a truly terrible slight to learn that the largest organ in the human body outside of your skin is your liver.This miraculous organ does the duties so important to a persons well being that once you learn just how magnificent the liver like the human body is this story should truly make you wonder.The Liver is perhaps the only organ in the human body that can regenerate an entire leaf, even its entire two leaf body.It is a detoxifying filter that if anything that is not good for you tries to harm you it will move to filter it, stop it from going any further.There is so much unmistakable love that came from our creator that when you learn of just what your liver does it will be a day in glory. It is a vital organ to be certain and without it the human being will die.It is as suggested a terrible slight to know that of all the yeoman duties that the liver performs there are many ways that the liver can be damaged and its ability to do its job can be impeded. One such way is by physical trauma.I can recall stories told of former World Heavy Weight Boxing Champion Muhammad Ali when immediately following one of those terrible fights with say, Joe Frazier, Ali after the fight urinated blood. This would be an example of a physical trauma to the Liver, however, it is mostly a shame to learn that this resilient even magnificent organ can be felled by another way and that would be to overwhelm the Livers natural capacity to detoxify the body. Alcohol can damage the Liver and if the host persists Alcohol will kill the Livers ability to detoxify. The host inability to know better is directly tied to an influence that has no basis in the truth nor is there any representation in life other than to provide an escort to a premature departure.The unmistakable suffering that the consumption of alcohol has provided is such a discredit to society as to be a shame.The repeal of the Volstead Act represents one of the true injustices of the 20th Century. This malady has cast such a shadow across all of society that there is a pamphlet that appears to have been written by a particular church's Pastor.In the Pamphlet, it states some 6 or so very violent crimes ranging from Homicide, Robbery, Arson, etc... the place as a percentage that Alcohol plays in the commission of these particular crimes was a shock. The pervasive slight that this consumption of Alcohol and the place Alcohol represents is due to a world that loves not and it loves not due in part to the corruption that allowed for the repeal to have occurred. A dirty and corrupt world has underwritten the place that this toxic poison now has. The human heart is not here because it will be quited by the Toxic poison that is killing the host."Prohibiton" is not entirely necessary to view.I do not think that there is not a man or women alive given the respect of privacy and the dignity to place perhaps on paper that would not share this terrible wrong that Alcohol has manifested.This is what "Prohibition" is about, it is about a challenge that was created out of not wanting to be referred to as a "Nation of Drunkards". It was born out of the shame that reasonable men and women saw in their very communities.Married men unable to control any inhibition, would drink themselves drunk then spend all their money and cost family, which included children to suffer. Suffer to such an extent that failure, yes failure was its father. The film "Prohibition" does not answer anything as much as it gives no chance for anything other than more of the same injustice to occur.This need not be an answer but "Prohibition" is not fate.I think this is an important distinction "Prohibition" is in a manner of speaking not you nor me.It is further to know, like I suggest we know, in our collective psyche that Alcohol is a dangerous and deadly Toxic poison.There is no natural predilection to consume an alcoholic beverage and its consumption may have as much to do with not knowing why an individual consumes Alcohol, as would be to know why was it necessary to repeal the Volstead Act? The consumption of Alcohol in this opinion is a un-natural act, at the very least the consumption of alcohol is unnecessary. I do not think the viewing of "Prohibition" is necessary. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Very educational *by M***I on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2024* I learned so much about the Prohibition era from this documentary that I didn’t know. It was very well-researched, with an enormous amount of period photos and videos. I highly recommend this for anyone interested in the subject. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating and informative *by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2023* How could any film by Ken Burns not be great and this was another one that provided a wealth of information that was astonishing. How fascinating the lengths people went to outwit prevailing prohibition law. I watched it twice, back to back over several hours and plan to view it every year or so. My only complaint is the musical score was often too loud and predominant. It's perfectly fine to have no background music; a good narration is enough. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4228484-ken-burns-prohibition](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4228484-ken-burns-prohibition) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
