Yours for the Revolution is a dramatization of Jack London's speech to Yale University in 1906 on the subject of socialism.  London, in addition to being a critically acclaimed novelist, was an outspoken socialist in a time when labor organizing was seriously dealt with by industrialists and railroad barons. This speaking event was the first time in American history that the subject of socialism was seriously discussed at a major university.  Yours for the Revolution juxtaposes social attitudes at the turn of the 20th century with similar attitudes still prevailing more than a century later.
