On June 6th, 2006, MVD and anarchist/radical book publisher AK Press will release Anarchism in America, a DVD featuring two documentaries on the anarchist movement.

In the first, Anarchism in America, the filmmakers take a road trip to map anarchism as a distinctly American tradition, interviewing a diverse cast of characters: from "ordinary" truckers and farmers to famous anarchists like Kenneth Rexroth and Ursula LeGuin. The second, The Free Voice of Labor, traces the history of the Yiddish anarchist newspaper of that name--publishing its final issue after 87 years--as told by it's now eldery staff.

Both documentaries focus on the state of anarchism in America during the early 1980s and also aims to embrace both the "right" (free-market) and "left" (socialist) anarchists movements. Besides known figures in the movement like Murray Bookchin and Karl Hess, the documentaries include an interview/performance from the Dead Kennedys and even footage from a Libertarian Party convention.
