The end of the Wrangler Protests
Wednesday, November 12th, 2003We (Rachel and I) have decided that we’re going to end the protests at the Wrangler plant in Seminole.

Thursday, October 9th, 2003Just wanted to let y’all know that my friend Rachel was interviewed today by news-talk 1520 KOMA about the situation in Seminole.
