US 50 - L'Illinois di THE FOUNDER

from AmericanA · host Eliist

Il nostro viaggio lungo la US-50 — "The Backbone of America" — ci porta dritti in Illinois. Proprio qui ci scontriamo con la nascita di un impero corporativo e del simbolo definitivo del capitalismo statunitense: il fast food.Guidati dal film The Founder, andiamo a caccia della vera storia di McDonald's. Se avete in mente l'immagine romantica e hollywoodiana di un Ray Kroc disperato e squattrinato che vende frullatori porta a porta, preparatevi a cambiare prospettiva. La realtà dietro la nascita degli Archi Dorati è molto diversa e decisamente più spietata.Seguimi anche su IG: https://www.instagram.com/eliist/qua tutti gli altri miei riferimenti: https://linktr.ee/eliist?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=83e25418-14f2-4d39-a734-73cdc975a661LICENZA SIAE NUMERO: 202600000049
