Carry it Forward

When a Jack pine burns in a wild fire, heat from the flames
opens its cones, dispersing the seeds that will regenerate the
forest. Although Paul Wellstone and his ?Co-Senator? Sheila are no
longer with us, thousands of people and organizations have popped
from their shells to carry on the Wellstone legacy. Hardworking
Pictures, an independent group of Minnesota filmmakers, is
producing Carry it Forward, a documentary exploring Paul
Wellstone?s political beginnings, his historic and controversial
grassroots Senate campaign, his bond with Sheila, ?and the legacy
of a life of progressive populism.? The producers are raising money
via house parties and online donations. To learn more about the
film, its producers, and how you can help, visit the Carry it
Forward
web site.
