Amateur film crew is attempting to make a documentary on OWS and travel from Austin, Texas to New York stopping at different occupies along the way. The film will attempt to show Occupy movement from within. By documenting the day to day events of the occupation, its General Assemblies, and its protests, we are attempting to show what it is like to participate in Occupy. Through interviews with occupiers, locals, and the crew, our documentary will paint an intimate portrait of the people who make the movement a reality.
Any donations from 1$ are appreciated and help in the biggest way. TY!
OWS BEWARE
CLGC’s memo proposes that the ABA pay CLGC $850,000 to conduct “opposition research” on Occupy Wall Street in order to construct “negative narratives” about the protests and allied politicians. The memo also asserts that Democratic victories in 2012 would be detrimental for Wall Street and targets specific races in which it says Wall Street would benefit by electing Republicans instead. According to the memo, if Democrats embrace OWS, “This would mean more than just short-term political discomfort for Wall Street. … It has the potential to have very long-lasting political, policy and financial impacts on the companies in the center of the bullseye.” The memo also suggests that Democratic victories in 2012 should not be the ABA’s biggest concern. “… (T)he bigger concern,” the memo says, “should be that Republicans will no longer defend Wall Street companies.”
