Tractorcade USA 1979 Premieres at FARM AID
World Premiere of “Tractorcade USA”, directed and produced by Larry Long, will be featured along with the screening of “The Farmer- Labor Movement: A Minnesota Story“, as part of Farm Aid’s week-of events under the banner of “Lessons in Mobilizing: From the Farmer Labor Movement to the 1980s Tractorcades to Today.”
“Tractorcade USA” is an audio-visual documentation of the historic farmers’ tractorcade for parity in 1979. “The Farmer- Labor Movement: A Minnesota Story” tells the story of the most successful third-party in U.S. political history.
The directors of both films will be on hand for a post-screening discussion, moderated by historian Cory Haala and others, with music from the Troubadour of the Tractorcade, Larry Long.
