We Are Wisconsin—The Wisconsin uprising in the words of the activists, writers, and everyday Wisconsinites who made it happen is a 300-page compilation of writings—from articles to tweets—that sprung from the Madison protest. This piece explores the impetus to archive and the questions raised in the book.
“We Are Wisconsin provides an accessible entry point into national conversations about the state of the U.S. economy, the need for organized labor, and the dangers of weakening unions. The protests in Madison breathed new life into the progressive Left, and this book is a testament to the resounding desire to rebuild a movement for worker’s rights.”
