Is This Tomorrow #1
A cautionary narrative depicting a communist takeover of America in which communist agitators orchestrate labor strikes and riots, manipulate government officials, and use violence including church bombings to destabilize the nation.

The story portrays union leaders capitulating to communist demands and depicts ordinary citizens suffering under the resulting totalitarian regime.
