Amazing local public broadcasting video from West Virginia. Many of the protestors were community members and local students. They actually dragged students out by their arms and legs, reminiscent of what officers did to students at Sproul Hall in Berkeley during the dawning of the Free Speech Movement.
More video here.

After a lifetime on the East Coast and getting stuck in the Midwestern suburbs of Chicago and northern Michigan I'm finally on the West Coast in the always cool and never hot city of San Francisco. Japhet worked for various outdoor organizations before becoming a member of Howard Dean's webteam (a lowly online organizer) in Burlington, Vermont. Afterwards, he continued his election work with America Coming Together in Madison, Wisconsin where he helped increase voter turnout to the highest in state history. Now, coming back to this environmental and corporate ethics roots, Japhet is excited to put his skills to use for Rainforest Action Network.
