Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumWaking the Sleeping Giant - Teaser
Published on Mar 26, 2017
"Waking the Sleeping Giant: The Making of a Political Revolution" is the story of building a 21st century progressive movement in the United States. Five remarkable individuals wrestle with persistent racial injustice, growing economic inequality, and the corrupting influence of money in politics that shaped the extraordinary 2016 presidential race.
From the campaign trail with Senator Bernie Sanders to a local political race in the failing economy of rural West Virginia. From a mass sit-in on the U.S. Capitol steps to racially charged police commission hearings in Los Angeles. Waking the Sleeping Giant makes sense of this moment in American politics, probing widespread discontent during the 2016 election cycle, Donald Trumps dramatic electoral victory, and the challenges ahead for those building a re-energized progressive movement.
