OWS Celebrates Its Three Month Anniversary
Over the weekend – the Occupy Wall Street movement recognized its 3-month anniversary. Demonstrators attempted to “re-occupy” another park in New York City – but were prevented from doing so by a Church that owned the land. As expected – the NYPD arrested 50 patriots during the day of action.
But the movement lives on in other ways after three months – from people moving their money from big banks on Wall Street to local credit unions – to helping families facing foreclosure – to fighting against student loan debt – the 99% of us are still being represented all across America.
Let’s keep it up.

Would you like to help give a child with a very troubled background this feeling of peace? Thom and Louise Hartmann founded the New England Salem Children's Village (NESCV) in New Hampshire in 1979. With states delaying payment for the children they entrust to the village, they need help with cash flow. Can you help? Now on Facebook.
