Occupy Wall Street’s protest found its way to the capitol of Texas’ city hall doors
By Raul Garcia Jr. / Oct. 12, 2011
Protesters from around the country and public figures have occupied downtown Manhattan for three weeks and the first week of October saw cities across the country applying the same pressure from protesters that are coming together against economic inequality, against corporate greed and against the War on Terrorism.
Urban cities like Austin, Grand Rapids, Michigan, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Chicago, De Monise, Iowa, San Francisco and Oakland are some of the twenty-five cities around the country that joined the demonstration of protestors against billionaires, big oil and big bankers.
Entertainment artists that have joined the protest are Michael Moore, Kanye West, Russel Simmons, Susan Sarandan, Tom Morello, Rev. Al Sharpton, Tim Robbins and Mark Ruffalo are just some of the celebrities and public figures that joined protesters that were calling to end the Federal Reserve and bringing back Democracy to the United States of America.
According to the President Wilson’s Library website, “Thus as President Wilson on that December evening signed the Federal Reserve bill into law, a new ‘creature’ was born. A unique creature, it was neither government nor private but part of both.’ The Federal Reserve Act, which established the Federal Reserve System, was to consist of 12 regional banks, privately owned by member banks, but governed and regulated by a president-appointed and Senate-confirmed Federal Reserve Board.”
On Monday Oct. 10 Mayor Bloomburg of New York City said he would allow the protesters to demonstrate indefinitely if they abide by the law.
According to wikipedia, “In mid-2011, the Canadian-based group Adbusters Media Foundation, best known for its advertisement-free anti-consumerist magazine called Adbusters, proposed a peaceful occupation of Wall Street to protest corporate influence on democracy, address a growing disparity in wealth, and the absence of legal repercussions behind the recent global financial crisis.”
For the most part the main stream media has not covered the protests or has dismissed the drum beat of thousands of voices and critical mass that includes many different political backgrounds including liberals, political independents, socialists, conservatives, anarchists, and libertarians.
