Occupy Wall Street has turned into a Global Movement that is now spreading to Vancouver. Last week there was a small gathering at the Art Gallery and this week there is a protest that aims to be patient, and long term continuing.

Saturday, October 15th,
2011 Vancouver Art Gallery
Occupy Vancouver - A Non Violent Movement
for Social, Economic and Political Change

It's quite breathtaking how radical and quick this is moving. There is lots of room for local leadership and growth. This is a globalised movement in solidarity but it will be local in direction and aims to universally appeal to "the 99%." Come out today!

Here are a few connc:

• Occupy Vancouver
• Occupy Wall St
• Live Stream Video
  
• Adbusters of Vancouver
  
• We are the 99% blog - a very compelling narrative
• An inspriring video already seen on the velolove list:

Time's Up! Sound Bike Dance Party at Occupy Wall Street



As cyclists and pedestrian users of the street we have keen insights to add to this movement as we have a much more accurate perception of the role that public space has and how the globalised phenomenon of car culture cuts off people's public social connection to their city.

And don't forget the Egyptian revolution (The Tahrir moment) only really came into full force once they censored the Egyptian Internet. We need to Get off the Internet, I'll meet you in the street!

Occupy Wall Street, Global Revolution, Fun

There is a movement to Occupy Wall Street. It's a call for social justice in our world where social welfare gets cut and large business is seen as crucial and gets massive bailouts. This is instigated by Adbusters Magazine of Vancouver. Adbusters, ironically, is often more style than substance. But its nice to see them supporting a real protest in the streets for once. Last time I remember that happening was in November 1998 for the Buy Nothing Day Critical Mass. There is a live stream video of the occupation in NY. And they call for people in other cities to also gather. Vancouver's stock exchange is only a block from The Art Gallery. ;-)
