  • Summary

  • This is the second episode of a special four-part miniseries on Imagine Air Theater.

    A controversial political figure is accused of violating the Espionage Act. His backers want him to run for president again... even if he’s convicted and sent to prison. A look into the future? No. It happened a century ago.

    In the early twentieth century, U.S. public opinion was decidedly isolationist. Most Americans were in favor of global neutrality. Then came World War One. After the United States entered that conflict, Congress passed strict laws forbidding any interference with the war effort. But one popular labor leader, Eugene V. Debs, opposed the war. Will he take a chance... go to Canton, Ohio, and speak out against the war? Or will he take his wife’s advice... avoid trouble and stay home with her?

    The series features Paul Rogan as Eugene Debs and Louis Brandeis, Tim McCaffrey as Clyde Miller, Stella Valente as Kate Debs, Hayes Dunlap as Edwin Wertz, Collin Hughes as Francis Kavanagh, Teg Gray as Seymore Stedman, the Bailiff and the Jailer, David Pinion as Oliver Wendell Holmes, Pilar Uribe as Janet and the Emcee, with William Jones as Judge D.C. Westenhaver.
