They trooped into the courthouse accompanied by green-hatted legal observers and National Lawyers Guild representatives, and faced the judge. Their charges mostly boiled down to “being part of a public protest”. Molly Crabapple – artist, journalist, and illustrator – was one of those arrested that day. “I was plucked off the sidewalk during a protest on the anniversary of Occupy, and didn't know what I was accused of until after 11 hours in jail,” she explains. “I was let off with a…http://www.twitpic.com/bmo28h

Negotiators having been working on this trade deal since 2007 and met in Auckland this week to have another go at hammering out an agreement. Alliance Party co-leader Kay Murray says we should not be so naïve as to imagine that anything good for New Zealanders will come out of the TPPA. “This agreement has very little, if anything to do with trade. It is a corporate power grab.” Ms Murray says big multinational com… Fiona Bernard: This is true for the U.S., for all countries. These so-called “trade” treaties are nothing less than the elimination of democracy and transfer of control of the world over to a group of Wall Street criminals. What people need to do, in every state, every country, is work together to shut down everything. If Greece would stop paying Wall Street and the bankers, and Spain, Ireland and Portugal would follow, what will Wall Street do? Particularly if the people in Michigan start randomly sitting in on freeways, stopping transportation, shutting down workplaces, impeding the function of business to extract money from all of us — what will Wall Street do? Drone everyone?http://www.twitpic.com/blq4h9

#union #iww #ows #p2 #tlot #tcot Art Review: Occupy Art http://www.kmuw.org/post/art-review-occupy-art The Wichita Art Museum has assembled a new exhibition from their permanent collection. It’s called “Occupy Art: Protest and Empathy for the Worker.” The premise of the exhibition leans on the 2011 Occupy Wall Street movement in both language and concept. The show attempts to historicize the populist fight for the 99% by displaying artworks from a span of 150 years. Important artists included in this show are Robert Rauschenberg, Ben Shahn, George Grosz, Käthe Kollwitz, Thomas Hart Benton, and, much to my delight and surprise, Kara Walker. But, there is a disconnect between this premise and what the show actually does. While the connection b…http://www.twitpic.com/blgf5t

Unrecognized by many of the young organizers of the Occupy movement is the School of the Americas (SOA) Vigil, the longest running protest event in the history of the United States. The School of the Americas Vigil, while smaller than in its heyday of 2001, when tens of thousands of protestors converged on the SOA, remains a beacon…http://www.twitpic.com/bkwzur
