Newsies w/ Chris Wade (Chapo Trap House, Hell on Earth)
Movies about organized labor are few are far between. But Disney's Newsies is that rare exception that is still a class today. One of the few others, Norma Rae, which was released 20 years earlier, also depicts the struggles of organized labor in a more modern sense. This twin bill of films are what I watched along with my guest, Chris Wade, Producer of Chapo Trap House and Hell on Earth as well as And Introducing and Infinite Cast on the book Infinite Jest.
