The Pyramid of Power is a 17-part documentary series focused on answering the question: Who rules the world?
Throughout 2019 and 2020, Derrick Broze began outlining what would become The Pyramid Of Power (POP) docuseries. He handled all the research, script writing, and audio narration for every episode.
Join journalist Derrick Broze as he examines the institutions and individuals who attempt to manipulate our world for their own benefit.
Season 1
Chapter 1 – Big Education
Public schooling is a ritual that most children endure during the most impressionable years of their lives. While the assumed goal of public education is to educate the children so that they may become the doctors, teachers, artists, and leaders of the future, some suspect a more sinister agenda is at play. Some believe that mandatory public education has become the tool for the governments of the world – and the education organizations which advise governments – to influence and manipulate the opinions of the youth.
Chapter 2 – Establishment Media
For many people, one of the first things they do in the morning is check out their favorite news stations, newspapers, social media feeds, and websites to get informed on the important events of the day. People of all political persuasions have a desire to be informed about the world around them and the topics they care about. The average person might believe that the hundreds of television stations, millions of websites, and never ending social media feeds offer a limitless resource of factual, credible information that will keep them up to date about the important issues.
Chapter 3 – Big Tech
By now, most viewers will be familiar with the well-publicized problems of social media. It’s purposefully addictive, produces jealousy, insecurity, and depression (and this) in some people, and the big socials sell your data for a profit. Despite the growing awareness of these problems, companies like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube are still some of the most widely used platforms in the world. Billions of people download these apps and use them to stay informed about the world. (Or, so they believe.)
Chapter 4 – the Hollywood Intelligence Complex
Our first attempts to understand the influence of various institutions and individuals on our world, has focused on the education system, the establishment media, and Big Tech firms. Each of these pieces of the Pyramid of Power have an immense influence on the minds and decisions of people around the world. However, no other institution may have the impact of the U.S. Film Industry.
Season 2
Chapter 5 – Big Wireless
In September 2018 I began investigating the wireless industry after Verizon announced plans to install 5G technology in my hometown of Houston, Texas. My investigation resulted in a documentary called, The 5G Trojan Horse. This chapter on Big Wireless is sourced from that documentary.
Chapter 6 – the Oilgarchy
Those who created the massive oil industry we know today – sometimes known as Big Oil or The Oilgarchy – reaped massive benefits for their efforts. But were the intentions of these tycoons purely based on profit and propelling humanity forward toward’s innovation? Or, as many researchers have proposed, is there a more nefarious agenda behind the history and the future of The Oilgarchy?
Chapter 7 – Big Pharma & The Medical Cartel
One of the most vital components of this Pyramid deals with our health and the institutions who decide what constitutes healthy and what constitutes safe. As with the other pieces of the Pyramid, many people around the world believe the modern medical and health organizations are largely corrupted and under the spell of what is commonly known as Big Pharma.
So what exactly is Big Pharma?
Chapter 8 – Food as a Weapon
For the this chapter we are going to examine the claims made about these same characters’ involvement in the farming and food industry. There are researchers who believe these cartels are also attempting to manipulate, and maybe even control, the world’s food supply. We’re going to find out if there are truths to the concerns around genetically engineered foods, and whether or not governments of the world have and might again use food as a weapon.
Season 3
Chapter 9 – The Prison Industrial Complex
What is The Prison Industrial Complex?
While we have thus far focused on various institutions and organizations which seek to impede or disempower the people, we also need to take a moment to look at the ways in which people are captured by industries which seek to profit off our bodies and minds. More specifically, we need to understand the ways in which the prison system, the laws passed by governments and enforced by police, and a number of intersecting factors can prevent the people from being free and reaching their full potential. We need to understand The Prison Industrial Complex.
Chapter 10 – The Foundations & The Non-Profit Industrial Complex
The nonprofit industrial complex (NPIC) has been referred to as the the network of privatized nonprofits that provide social service, usually with financial aid from corporations and the government. It can also be described as “a system of relationships between, the State, the ultra wealthy, the foundations, and non-profit/NGOs social service & social justice organizations that results in the surveillance, control, derailment, and everyday management of political movements”. These tax-exempt foundations leverage wealth to fund or create movements which will follow their dictates, whether consciously or unconsciously.
Chapter 11 – The Banking Cartel & The Future of Money
Nearly every aspect of the Pyramid of Power which has been mentioned thus far is touched by the banking industry. Whether we are talking about the education system, the prison system, Hollywood, or the average person storing their savings in a bank, the world of finance pervades every aspect of our lives. The influence of the banks can be seen via loans, investments, or simply holding money. The fact is that our lives our impacted by the banks directly and indirectly every single day.
Chapter 12 – The Crimes of the Intelligence Community
The simple fact is that these 5 nations, and the intelligence agencies which have been trained by them, have been involved in a number of high profile crimes known to much of the public, as well lesser known crimes which are equally disturbing. Various actions taken by the modern international intelligence community include overthrowing governments, funding drug trafficking and gun running, spreading propaganda through the corporate media, spying on their own domestic populations, as well as foreign populations; targeted assassinations; and even accusations of trafficking of children, which we will explore in an upcoming episode of this series.
Season 4
Chapter 13 – The Technocratic State
Over the years, researchers of the ruling class have typically fallen into one of three categories: Those who believe the guiding philosophy is Communism, those who believe it is a fascist ideology driving the psychopaths at the top, and, finally, those who see the most danger coming from Nationalist authoritarians.
Chapter 14 – The False Flag Deception
A false flag operation is designed to create the appearance that an attack or episode of violence is caused by a person or nation while concealing the true perpetrator. The reference to flags stems from pirates flying a fake flag pretending to be an ally of their intended target so they could get within attacking distance. It has also been used in naval and land warfare with soldiers flying fake flags or wearing the military uniforms of their enemies while they frame them for the attacks.
Chapter 15 – The Pedo-Class
The longer one spends time tumbling down the rabbit hole, researching the various pieces of The Pyramid of Power, the more likely you are to learn about examples of child abuse. From teachers and sports coaches, to law enforcement and religious leaders, and celebrities and politicians – it certainly appears as if there is a society wide problem with pedophilic behavior and the abuse of young children.
Unfortunately, examples of this behavior can be found in all political parties, religions, ethnicities, professions, and lifestyles. A quick search of the news on any given day will reveal stories of arrests made on the local, regional, national, (1) and international levels. (2, 3) Even organizations like the Boyscouts of America have not been immune to claims of sexual abuse of children.
Chapter 16 – Religion & Secret Societies
Unfortunately, pedophilia is not the only problem associated with organized religion.
Organized religion, sometimes known as institutional religion, is defined as “a belief system and rituals which are systematically arranged and formally established”. Organized religions have an official doctrine outlining these beliefs and rituals, as well as hierarchical or bureaucratic leadership structure, and a codification of proper and improper behavior.
While humanity has been seeking to understand the physical world by creating stories and myths which explain natural phenomena since the beginning of our species, it took hundreds – and in some cases thousands – of years to develop the current major organized religions.
Conclusion
Chapter 17, Volume 1 – The Top of The Pyramid
While some acknowledge that individuals or groups of people can corrupt elements of the systems we’ve covered, including the education system, the establishment media, the medical cartel, and organized religions, they may deny these groups collaborate with each other. However, we’ve proven that these groups not only corrupt systems but work together to achieve goals that don’t benefit humanity. These seemingly disparate elements actually interlock to become what I have referred to as “The Pyramid of Power”.
