On Saturday’s Up w/ Chris Hayes, Chris will sit down with Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and screenwriter Tony Kushner about his latest movie, “Lincoln,” the politics of compromise and the movie’s parallels with another transformational political figure: President Obama. We’ll also discuss planned strikes at Walmart stores across the country by employees protesting working conditions, and what Black Friday says about the broader culture of consumption in America.
