Published 3 years, 4 months ago
Description
The quintessential American folk troubadour and a beloved national icon, Woody Guthrie was also a committed lefty for whom art and politics were intertwined. We discuss his life and legacy via Hal Ashby's biopic BOUND FOR GLORY (1976), which takes a broad look at Guthrie and during the Great Depression. PLUS: How Joe Biden crushed a railroad workers' strike.
Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
