Prolific filmmaker and ethnographer Yale Strom (The Last Klezmer, Carpati, L'Chayim Comrade Stalin! and many others) has turned his attention to an early American political hero: Eugene Victor Debs. Bernie Sanders inspired a generation – but who inspired him? Most people in America don't know that the contemporary political movement to address income inequality began over 100 years ago with Debs.
