Synopsis

A fascinating exploration of left-wing culture, this revealing chronicle of Charles H. Kerr and his revolutionary publishing company looks at the remarkable list of books, periodicals and pamphlets that the firm produced and traces the strands of a rich tradition of dissent in America. Tracing Kerr's political development and commitment to radical social change, We Called Each Other Comrade also tells the story of the difficulties of exercising the freedom of expression in an often hostile economic and political climate.
