'Democracy Isn't a Spectator Sport': Working People Get a Shout Out in President Obama's DNC Speech

Last night at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, President Barack Obama lifted up the spirit of America's working people and our courage to fight for a better life:

That’s who we are. That’s our birthright—the capacity to shape our own destiny. That’s what drove patriots to choose revolution over tyranny and our GIs to liberate a continent. It’s what gave women the courage to reach for the ballot, and marchers to cross a bridge in Selma, and workers to organize and fight for collective bargaining and better wages.
