We don’t know if they had clowns or a bounce house at the AFL-CIO Convention today, but there was a magician. El Mago del Pueblo Victor Narro took part in an “art action” called the “social justice chain escape.”

It’s not all fun and games at #aflcio13, though. There was business to take care of as well.
The whitest straightest oldest labor leader in the room just spoke up for trans rights. #aflcio13 #lgbt
