The Reformer Who Dreamed Of A Utopia | Robert Owen

Have you ever thought about why most people work an 8-hour day? During the Industrial Era, it was one of just many social reforms the philanthropist Robert Owen took on in his lifetime, culminating in his attempt to create a socialist utopia where everyone worked together. He was also the father of the co-operative movement in Britain, beginning with the care he showed the workers in his mills. This documentary looks at his life and achievements, remembering the forgotten man behind the reforms. If you like my videos, consider sponsoring me via Patreon here.
