Summary:
Prolific filmmaker and ethnographer Yale Strom has turned his attention to an early American political hero: Eugene Victor Debs. Most people in America don't know that the contemporary political movement to address income inequality began over 100 years ago with Debs. American Socialist traces the history of American populism with the man who inspired progressive ideas – from FDR's New Deal to Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign. Here is an objective but passionate history of the movement as founded and championed by Debs, a movement that continues to have an impact on our lives today. [First Run Features]
