I am planning on staging a May Day protest as a student at CCM. I would like to know if there are any other Occupiers that will join me. Send me a private message or reply to this thread. This cause needs to be EVERYWHERE. Thank you.
Do it. Do as much as you can. I'll be in Washington DC on May Day stirring the nest up there.
Here's a sign suggestion: A Corporation is as Much a Person As A School Bus is a Child.
I suggest your carry the message you believe the most in. Essentially OWS is and always will be about the horrible Income Inequality we experiencing in this country. Year over year it has gotten worse and now we are further screwed then ever in so many ways. We were on a race to the bottom where the rich become the super rich and the middle class join the poor to become the new improved poor class. The Super Rich and the Poor.
Now, we are paying attention and ready to act!

No one has replied yet but I will do it by myself if I have to. I'd be a little more confident if I had people standing with me. Also, do you think the staff at my school will have a problem with me wearing a V mask?
Advertize your plan on the Occupy News Post For the schedule of May day activities.
Good luck! Are there any classmates that will be joining you?
Use this forum as a primer for what kind of arguments to expect against you doing this. Be prepared and you will do well.
Do you have an idea for a short but sweet sign I can make? (:
"Ask me why I'm on strike!"
"Greed is NOT good!"
"Corporate $ in politics = :("
etc. Keep the signs to a few words. One sentence max. You want to make sure that the sign will be visible from vehicles that are passing by. Use bold letters if possible.

Thank you muchly!
