Somewhat dull gathering of rabblerousers of various unions to rally for Civil Rights. The speakers are not very interesting, until James Cary comes on and invegorates everyone with his fire and brimstone speech. It's pretty powerful. The filmmakers must have known this too, because Cary almost gets half of the film's running time.
