The Socialists of Shoe City, 35min,. USA
Directed by Shana Figueroa
The story of "The Socialists of Shoe City: The Socialist Movement in Haverhill, Massachusetts" " chronicles the transformative impact of James F. Carey and John C. Chase on Haverhill, Massachusetts, during a period of intense industrialization and social upheaval. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Haverhill's booming shoe industry was a focal point of labor exploitation and inequality. Carey and Chase, driven by a vision of social justice and workers' rights, founded the Haverhill Socialist Labor Party in 1895. Their activism led to significant labor strikes, public lectures, and campaigns for better working conditions and fair wages. Despite facing formidable opposition, their efforts culminated in Carey's historic election to the Massachusetts State Legislature in 1898, signaling a profound shift in the political landscape and inspiring a broader socialist movement across America.
