There's about a half hour left. It's fascinating. I have so much respect for these people. There is so much warmth here.
Has anybody seen this documentary?

Watched it last night. Really fascinating. Reminder that civil unrest and political struggles caused by economic conditions is not ancient history in America.

It's one of the greats. Not only did I have tears, but I wanted to punch every industrialist out there. Effective and moving.

United Mine Workers president, Tony Boyle, had Joseph Yablonski and his wife and daughter murdered. Fortunately he got convicted and died in prison.
