The 99% Are Standing Up Everywhere: Occupy Together!
#OccupyWallStreet 99% Movement Spreads Across America – Introducing OccupyTogether.orgAmped Status September 26th, 2011 |
Welcome to OCCUPY TOGETHER, a hub for all of the events springing up across the country in solidarity with the Occupy Wall St. protesters. As we have followed the news on Facebook, Twitter and the various live feeds across the internet, we felt compelled to build a site that would help spread the word as more protests organize across the country. We hope to provide people with information about events that are organizing, ongoing, and building across the U.S. as we, the 99%, take action against the greed and corruption of the 1%.

for the first times in years I feel hopeful that sometime in my lifetime there will be change and more equitable distribution of resources, jobs, money for food medical care for working poor. I haven't felt this hopeful in years.
Here's one of my bluetry poems expressing this fear. It reminds me of the 70's. Hope is keeping me alive.
Billie’s Consumerism Blues
Consumerism’s got the best of me in spite of my fighting so hard to maintain the good thinks in life. I keep fighting a losing battle. I want to believe the best things in life are free but I get stopped in my tracks.
Buy buy buy they implore, while I have nothing left to buy with except very extended credit debts. I’m outta cash supply, debts mount easily. Buy, buy, buy, come read poetry. Buy a glass of wine. You can’t sit there and read for free. You’ve got to pay your dues too. Don’t forget the entrance fee. Cough it up.
Tons of paper discarded daily senselessly. No one could be so sad. Trees ask me to tell them why they’re born to be discarded they wail about their senseless lot, they live to be - they ask me if I know why it’s like this, what’s all this suffering for? I cry. I cry.
Lights on in every room whether you’re home or not to keep the burglars away. In Harlem Mexicans crowded 3 families to each apartment while we pay taxes to build another Yankee Stadium right next to the one already there. The rich pay more for private boxes while Mexicans live in NYC barracks, 20 in a 3 room apt, barely able to pay the rent. Please I beg you give the poor some of my taxes instead I plead. They turn a deaf ear. Please, please?
I sit in my room looking out at the rain, no one could be so sad. Gloom everywhere, I sit and I fear, I don’t know what the world is coming to.
Kill canned hunts. WTF, what kind of concept kills caged animals for a few dollars from the rich? I can’t wait. I want to kill hunters; torture them watch life slowly drain from them, their heads lolling to one side. I place their head on my lap. Take a pic too, like they do to the lioness bleeding from her mouth, trying to feed her cubs behind the fence, teats full of milk. Make them like quarry, my prey, another trophy.
You can’t hide from the ugliness I try to hide I do, I do. I can’t take much more.
I sit in my chair filled
Filled with despair.
No one could be so sad.
gloom everywhere, I sit and I stare. What’s the state of the universe? Is there anybody out there?
The ugliness all a glow, picture show for family. Bring up your moohlah! We got yours here. Worse than Sodom & Gomorrah. My soul’s for sale. Name your price! Sold to the devil at the crossroads!
This revolution will not be televised; will not put the shine back on your teeth. Civil rights gone, lives tapped into by government, someone’s in control somewhere. Not me, hey, I’m all alone in here waiting for the pain to go away. I sit in my chair full of despair, no one could be this sad.
I cry to trees. They hear my pleas. No one else does.
Please! Please. Is there anybody out there?

We were fedup from 30 years of oppression, injustice, inequality, poverty, corruption, favoratism, of the 1% who have all and the 99% who have nothing. We went down in the streets of all Egypt's cities and towns in millions on 25 January 2011,men, women, families with children, peacefully demanding the fall of the dictator and the fall of his regime. We confronted a 1.3 millions security forces and in four days we exhausted them and we defeated them by our sheer numbers. They evaporated and vanished. Egypt belonged to the people. The army did not dare to intervene because they were much weaker than the security forces. After 18 days, the dictator fell like a autumn leaf and went into house arrest. a 1000 of us were martyred and 10 000 were injured, very many seriously. We did not kill, we did not loot, we did not burn, we did not destroy private or public property. These were the best 18 days of my life.
We have shown the people of the world what PeoplePower can do. People will not take shit from their rulers anymore. They should either behave or go to Hell.
Tahrir Square stands firmly in solidarity with "Occupy together" movement. Yes, we are the 99% and they are the 1%.
God bless you.
To have a wealth of information all together like this. Yesterday at occupywallstreet.com I was surprised to see that this occupation is going on in other cities simultaneously and somehow miraculously this news is being kept from our citizenry.
I was really happy to be there today and see so much going on. They even had a performance corner which I participated in which was great fun.
A lot of solidarity permeates the air!
