i spent the whole year of 2011 ―the year of #ArabSpring #Syntagma #Acampadas #Walkerville #Bloombergville and #OccupyWallStreet― writing many a QT on tweets where i was translating quotes from many EU sources still somewhat geoblocked in USA, especially BBC News, El País, L’Express and Al-Jazeera… 🧵

for those wondering about #Wisconsin, two words: #LABOR #UNIONS

here’s tangential mini-thread i wrote about how Wisconsin was one of the big stories of 2011 during the #ArabSpring and how without Winconsin’s #Walkerville, there would have never been a #Bloombergville nor an #OccupyWallStreet.

and wanna give a special shout out to Wisconsin’s teachers’ unions; who relentlessly took on the Koch brothers and won.

#YQG #Walkerville #WindsorON Apparently, the Baby Show was a success - #willisteadmanor great venue.

read the TL;DR on Wisconsin's 2011 protests
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Wisconsin_protests

although the MSM mostly acknowledged the #Walkerville summer encampments created by the #Teamsters in June of that year, i actually had been news curating the Wisconsin protests from February because Michigan activists knew i'd been curating #ArabSpring news for over a month.

they couldn't use tents so they slept in SLEEPING BAGS in the middle of FEBRUARY of 2011.

what does it have to do with your #unemployment benefits?
