If you like to categorize people by a single category, they I am definitely left-leaning. But that's not the main reason why I liked the movie The Salt of the Earth so much. It shows the power of individuals and groups when they pursue something righteous. It's a good thing there was never a sequel because those people would have messed it up anyway. It’s just fine like this.
