#F29 Actions Across the World Posted 12 years ago on Feb. 29, 2012, 5:05 p.m. EST by OccupyWallSt </iframe> Today, protests are underway in cities across the world. For background on why we're occupying to Shut Down The Corporations and the American Legislative Exchange Council, <a href="http://occupywallst.org/article/f29-shut-down-corporations-leap-action-reclaim-our/">see here</a>. Follow <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/F29PDX">@F29PDX</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/OccupyWallSt">@OccupyWallSt</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/OWSTactical">@OWSTactical</a>, #F29 (#29F for European actions), and #ALEC on Twitter. Because there are large numbers of decentralized actions today, we will do our best to make updates and include links to individual livestreams below.</p> <p><strong>Updated, 3/1:</strong>Via <a href="http://www.shutdownthecorporations.org/?p=289">Shut Down the Corporations</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>As an overview, the actions today varied from sit-ins and pickets to street theater and banner drops. There were many creative actions including a foreclosure on Citibank, a “Corporate Debutant Ball” in Salt Lake City, teach-ins in Norman, OK and Naples, FL, actions targeting Pfizer, the Koch Brothers and Bank of America in New York, and a delicious Ice Cream Bloc in Oakland. Three distribution centers of Wal-Mart were shut down in a coordinated southern California action, as well as the World Corporate Headquarters of Pfizer in Connecticut. Further ALEC corporations targeted included Monsanto in Washington D.C., AT&T in Kansas City, MO and Atlanta, an action at the BP trial in New Orleans, Bank of America in Charlotte, PNM in Alburqurque, Altria in Richmond, and Peabody Coal in St. Louis. Dozens of other cities took action as part of F29 including Denver, Minneapolis, Louisville, Winston-Salem, and many others. We are proud to say the tone of the actions today remained jubilant and focused even in the face of police repression.</p> </blockquote> <p><img src="//i.imgur.com/4YaP3.jpg" alt="f29 ows"></p> <p><a href="/article/live-f29-actions-across-world/">Read More...</a></p> </div> <p class="view-comments"> <a title="View Comments" href="/article/live-f29-actions-across-world/#comments"> 61 Comments</a> </p> </article> <article class="article " id="occupiers-retaking-liberty"> <h1><a href="/article/occupiers-retaking-liberty/"> 10 Occupiers Arrested Retaking Liberty Square </a></h1> <p class="info"> Posted 12 years ago on Feb. 29, 2012, 12:13 a.m. EST by <a title="View OccupyWallSt's profile" class="user" href="/users/OccupyWallSt/">OccupyWallSt</a> </p> <div class="words"> <p>Around fifty occupiers with sleeping bags are currently risking arrest in Liberty Square.</p> <h3>Updates</h3> <ul> <li><strong>1:15 a.m. EST</strong> Things have calmed down in Liberty Square following arrests.</li> <li><strong>1:00 a.m. EST</strong> <a href="http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/20770567">@OccupySteve livestream</a> online.

But we are pleasantly surprised to learn that the New York Police Department is expecting us: as evidenced by the department-wide memo they’ve issued (see below), the NYPD’s Counterterrorism Bureau Terrorism Threat Analysis Group (glad to know they’re on top of the important stuff) knows where/when the day’s activities will start, how/when the call went out, why we’re marching and who we’re targeting (<a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Bank+of+America+56+East+42nd+Street,+New+York,+NY+(212">B of A</a>+907-5225&ll=40.753792,-73.978651&spn=0.008014,0.017831&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&fb=1&gl=us&hq=Bank+of+America+56+East+42nd+Street,+New+York,+NY+(212)+907-5225&cid=0,0,5144071383814236390&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A), <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=pfizer+42nd+street+nyc&ll=40.750947,-73.9729&spn=0.008014,0.017831&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&fb=1&gl=us&hq=pfizer+42nd+street+nyc&cid=0,0,911808212419337204&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A">Pfizer</a> and <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Koch+Industries+nyc+office&hl=en&ll=40.769817,-73.972063&spn=0.032046,0.071325&client=firefox-a&hq=Koch+Industries+nyc+office&hnear=New+York&t=m&z=14&iwloc=A">Koch Industries</a>).
