Eyes Open. Capes on.
If you move through time, you can stop at any moment in American history, and witness the same crimes, motivated by the same destructive forces, inflicted on the same victims. Only the names and faces are different. But in all of those moments, you will also find everyday people who rose to become heroes.
In 1860, the Wides Awakes were those people. In 2020, the Wides Awakes return to unite us in joyful resistance. And we're not letting history repeat itself.
