For the June 14, 2011 march to protest a big meeting of corporate executives at Chicago's Hyatt Regency Hotel, a group of banner makers created Craft Against Corporate Welfare. As part of the general Stand Up! Chicago mobilization, this merry band of students, teachers and activists put together an impressive selection of giant puppets, signs, and huge banners to be used in the protest. We visit with them as they discuss their mission, spray paint and staple gun over three days, and pull off some impressive deployments during the scheduled event. More info: craft (at) standupchicago.org. Length - 19:23
