Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the pivotal Supreme Court decision of March 1919, which convicted Eugene Debs, a prominent Socialist Party leader, to ten years in jail for his anti-war speech in Ohio. The Supreme Court's verdict highlighted a time of heightened tensions in the wake of World War I, when industrial capitalism was on the rise and the government's iron fist came down on any perceived threats to its authority. The author analyzes Debs' speech, the subsequent trial, and the broader implications of the verdict, exploring the complex interplay between free speech, patriotism, and the ongoing struggle for social justice in the United States. This book sheds light on an important chapter in American history, offering valuable insights into the limits of dissent and the resilience of those who fight for a better world.
