● People's Climate March

Fossil Fuel : A Double Irony
     400,000 +  
Fracking = Climate Chaos
Human beings have hit the Earth like an asteroid.
Frack No: Fracking = Climate Chaos = Droughts ☠

☞ With over 400,000 people flooding the streets of New York City, around Columbus Circle at West 59th Street and Central Park West, this was the largest climate march ever. The public is awake, while privilege and power are delirious with greed. There is a bit of irony, in that the industry, which is largely responsible for the contamination of the Earth's atmosphere and ultimately the destruction of life as we know it, is called the fossil fuel industry. The rate of species extinction today is the same as it was 65 million years ago, when an asteroid hit the Earth, causing the dinosaurs to become extinct, leaving behind little more than their fossils. But, as Noam Chomsky put it, "now, we are the asteroid." ❀ There is a choice. Either, we go the way of the dinosaur, or fossil fuel goes the way of the dinosaur. Sustainable living is not only possible, but it's absolutely necessary for survival.

"The question in brief is whether democracy and freedom are values to be preserved or threats to be avoided. In this possibly terminal phase of human existence, democracy and freedom are more than values to be treasured; they may well be essential to survival."
-Noam Chomsky

● OWS Protesters Sing...

'I Ain't Gonna Study War No More'

OWS Protesters Sing 'I Ain't Gonna Study War No More'

Occupy Wall Street Peaceful Protesters sing 'I Ain't Gonna Study War No More' at the n17 demonstration in Foley Square, City Hall, NYC. http://youtube.com/uresist Fighting war with peace, the 60 day anniversary of OWS is a continuing public outcry against the financing of war, police brutality, and against City Hall and Wall Street's role in bringing on the economic crisis. More than 35,000 people gather to exercise their first amendment rights and protest class warfare and the economic injustice that the wealthiest 1% has waged against the 99%

In this video clip and during the n17 demonstration, protesters express economic political views such as to save the middle class, pull up the people, lift up the poor, tax the rich, and cut corporate welfare.

Occupy Wall Street demonstrators say, "Join us! ...because you already are what we are, the 99%!"

Occupy Wall Street Movement Goes Worldwide

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

"We are the ones we have been waiting for." -June Jordan

Crowds of demonstrators cheer as the Occupy Wall Street movement goes worldwide, Oct. 15th, 2011, Times Square, New York City. A.N.S.W.E.R. YOUTH & STUDENTS SMASH WAR & RACISM. Activists repeat, "...all day, all week, occupy every street." http://youtube.com/uresist

● THE RISING TIDE...

The rising tide of the 1% is sinking the boats of the 99%. http://youtube.com/uresist Just after the 10th anniversary of the Afghanistan War, a march on banks for peace and economic justice begins at Trinity Church and Liberty Plaza, NYC. "Wall Street is War Street!" Demonstrators chant, "We're fired up! We won't take no more! We want money for jobs, not for war!" Occupy Wall Street Protesters rally against the financing of war and Wall Street's role in bringing on the economic crisis and subsequently crashing the world economy.

● Occupy Wall Street Wins This Round

Occupy Wall Street Wins This Round

Occupy Wall Street Wins This Round For The 99%

Occupy Wall Street: WE ARE THE 99% http://youtube.com/uresist Demonstrators rally against Wall Street's role in bringing on the economic crisis by standing their (our) ground in Liberty Plaza (Zuccotti Park, Wall Street area), New York City. With picket signs, posters, petitions, music, drumming, and chanting, peaceful protesters demand accountability from the wall street financial firms, which not only caused but benefited from the economic crash they levied on society.

One woman holds up the book “Confidence Men” by the Pulitzer Prize winning author/journalist Ron Suskind, as she tells passersby to, "read it, it's dynamite." Suskind asserts that, “gaining trust without earning it, is the age-old work of confidence men.” Suskind relates the current economic crisis to the 1929 crash on Wall Street, quoting Franklin D. Roosevelt in his famous first inaugural speech about the irresponsible bankers of his time, “faced by a failure of credit... ...they know only the rules of a generation of self-seekers.”

An OWS protester describes police brutality the morning of the scheduled "park cleaning." "They actually were running people over in the streets with mopeds. One gentleman, one officer of the law (NYPD) actually ran over a guy with a moped and punched him in the face at the same time. They took out batons, they arrested a few people. One guy got his kneecap broken." But then... "They realized we were too great in numbers." - ows demonstrator

In the morning of October 14th, 2011 the demonstrators cheer as the "park cleaning" (NYC Bloomberg's excuse for evacuation) is called off for now. More than a thousand people began flooding into the park at 4:AM to stand in solidarity with the peaceful protesters for the benefit of the 99%. As one demonstrator put it, "This has gone viral."

Join us! ...because you already are what we are, the 99%
