Description:
Native Land is a 1942 film directed by Leo Hurwitz and Paul Strand, narrated by Paul Robeson. With Robeson not appearing on screen but singing and narrating off-screen, this combination of a documentary format and staged reenactments depicts the struggle for human rights in the 1930s against those who would deny them----the captains of industry and their hired goons and strikebreakers, and the Ku Klux Klan. It is based on the findings of the La Follette Committees' 1938 investigation of the repression of labour organizing.
