I'm not sure if links work but http://metanoia-films.org/films/ has some absolutely fantastic documentaries on the Wobblies and the associated Trade Union movement.
One interesting thing is, the same with the Civil Rights Movement, that what scared 'the man' most was if the black and white poor would join together and rise up. Just as today, most of the 'investor' efforts are to divide and conquer - the sham of party politics being a prime example.
IMO, if the average person forgave relatively minor differences and stopped reading/watching corporate 'news' and advertising I think we could be free of these parasites within one generation. But, like any prisoner hoping to escape, they first need to realise they are actually in prison - and this seems to be one of the hardest hurdles to overcome.
