Occupy!
The Occupy Movement rocks!
Yesterday, I went downtown with several hundred other folks to the Occupy Oakland march and rally and witnessed Danny Glover go OFF.
He talked about the need to think of the planet 7 generations from now in terms of the repercussions of our actions. To consider what will happen to our children and our children's children.
And he encouraged everyone to persevere in the days ahead to, "Remake and transform our Democracy," take it back from the corporations and make something better, and then to institutionalize this change.
He said we need to take back our humanity, and that we need nothing short of a "revolution, evolution, and transformation."
Danny Glover said, "People have to matter more than things." Amen

Sounds like it was an inspirational speech! I'm not good with large crowds, but I've been watching some of this all on TV.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's crazy how strongly this movement has taken hold. I think everyone is watching and waiting to see what happens next. . .
