I spent today with the Democracy North Carolina legislative day of action and the NAACP Witness Wednesday. Here is a little of what I saw while going to rallies, seeing civil disobedience, watching the legislative sessions in action, and meeting with elected officials to talk about voting rights, tougher campaign finance disclosure laws, and other important issues.
