National Museum of American History Sends Curator to Wisconsin for Protest and Debate Collectibles

You know you’ve made it big when the National Museum of American History sends someone out to pick up after you. We last reported on the museum sending out curators to find bits and pieces that would reflect the country at that moment during Barack Obama‘s inauguration. At that time, the museum scoured the National Mall, hunting for solid archival pieces. Now, the Washington Post reports, they’ve sent curator Barbara Klark Smith to Wisconsin to see what she’s able to dig up and collect surrounding the ongoing and captivating dispute between Democrats and Republicans over the state’s budget and setting limits on unions’ collective bargaining rights.
