"Today marks one year since 17 North Carolinians were arrested for nonviolent civil disobedience at the General Assembly while protesting Republican plans to restrict voting rights while cutting aid to the jobless, the sick and the poor.
The action was the first in a wave of weekly rallies that drew thousands of people to protest in the state capital and other communities across North Carolina, leading to the arrests of more than 920 people and focusing national attention on the state's hard-right political turn."
