Native Land (1942)

Native Land plot

"The Picture with the Most Exciting Story of Our Time!"

One day in 1934, a hardworking Michigan farmer named Fred Hill is beaten to death by opposing a group of strikebreakers at a meeting. Two years later, a young woman fixing up the windows of a house in Cleveland Ohio finds the body of a union member. In the summer of the same year, vandals vandalize a church used by both black and white sharecroppers in Fort Smith, Arkansas. Two sharecroppers, one white and the other black, are murdered by the armed vandals. At the local union meeting, a man named Harry Carlisle falsely accuses another man of spying on the meeting and compiling the names of those attending the meeting for blacklisting. Carlisle, a spy operative employed by the anti-union company, uses the hysteria created by his accusation to gain the trust of the other employees. Carlisle gets a big bonus and a promotion for his work, but despite this he tells his bosses he no longer wants to participate in the company's practices. Threatened and forced to compile another list of names, he attempts to sabotage the operation by hiding his new list from the company.
