The 'Occupy' Movement
The 'Occupy Wall Street' Movement began with a call in August 2011 by AdBusters Magazine of Canada for sit-in-style demonstrations at New York City's Wall Street & elsewhere, on September 17th, which is U.S. Constitution Day; the New York City rally settled in at Zuccotti Park (formerly Liberty Plaza Park), which is five short blocks from Wall Street. Similar occupations at parks in other cities followed; the occupiers were very peaceful, so the brownshirt police thugs that attacked protesters in Seattle and Oakland were using intentionally-excessive force. Slogans include 'we are the 99%', 're-occupy', 'occupy the future', 'occupy democracy', and 'the revolution continues', and themes highlight the economic emergency facing the 99%: broken bridges, crumbling schools, and widespread unemployment.
In a suspiciously-coordinated strategy, many of the peaceful camps were forced to shut down on the night of November 14th.
The Occupy Movement rallied against the fascist onslaught, with all-day demonstrations in cities across America on November 17th.
Meanwhile, the 99% March on Washington began November 10th, with 50 stalwart men & women leaving Zuccotti Park
for the 230-mile trek to Washington, DC. The greatly-enlarged force arrived in DC on Tuesday November 22nd.

"Romanticism . . . deals, not with the random trivia of the day, but with the timeless, fundamental, universal problems and values of human existence.
It does not record or photograph; it creates and projects. It is concerned – in the words of Aristotle – not with things as they are, but with things
as they might be and ought to be." — Ayn Rand
