The Draft: Race, class, culture--the draft in the one thousand, nine hundred and sixty and one thousand, nine hundred and seventy was a lightning rod that lit up every schism in American society. But ending the draft has produced unintended consequences, creating a citizenry completely disconnected from that of the soldiers who experience the burden of endless wars. Featuring interviews with the people who fought the draft, supported it and lived its realities, The Draft tells the story of how a single, controversial issue continues to define a nation.
