?They Woke a Sleeping Giant?

By James Parks

Hundreds of enthusiastic working people continue to march at the Wisconsin state capitol in Madison. In addition to carrying signs and chanting, many people are signing recall petitions for Republican state senators who rigged  a vote to take away public employees’ right to collectively bargain. Here are some more tweets from the rally:
