description: The year was 1932. Massive unemployment, general despondency, economic chaos-America was facing the Great Depression. It was not the most opportune of times for Margaret Budenz to graduate from college and start her career. Streets is the unique and deeply intimate account of her struggles, hopes, and loves. Rather than be easily dismissed as the wife of Louis Budenz, former executive board member of the Communist Party of America and editor of the Daily Worker, Margaret stands on her own as lover, mother, and as an intellectual struggling against the evils of her day. More than simply a biography, here is history, tracing for all women their gradual liberation, their social and political emergence in America. A well-told documentary.
