COMMUNITY ORGANIZING – THE VIDEO

The scene is the Wisconsin legislature after the vote. What you see here is an appalling glimpse of classic community organizing in action. There is nothing spontaneous or grass roots about what you see in the video. The shirts, the chants, the epithets hurled at members of the legislature, the obnoxious behavior, the obvious presence of leaders steering the angry crowd, all this has organized written all over it. It’s a frightening thing. It’s Chicago in Wisconsin. It is our president’s way but it is not, …I say IT IS NOT the American way.
