Remember Me
Well, it's official, a corporation was officially announced to the media today as being in control of the Occupy Movement's National General Assembly in Philadelphia on July 4th. Oh... didn't know you were having one? You are. But you won't be able to speak at it. It's not direct democracy. It's representative. Like in our government now. And if you try to have a different "National General Assembly," than the one the corporation wants you to have, you'll be sued. Because they have also trademarked the term. Notice they didn't post here to announce themselves... They don't want you to know until it's too late.

Women in America should be outraged, I'm male and I'm really angry about what the Virginia Conservatives have tried to do. There attempts to stop women from having abortions are communist. Also the method they use are inhuman. These guys must have been Nazis in a previous life. Which brings me to my additional point, Conservatives and their attempts to control the rest of the population makes them in effect Religious Communist. Remember these are the guys that support the 1%, or at least there biggest supporters.
To all occupiers I commend your efforts to solve our nations problems and welcome you to the ownership revolution! As the founder of a small Redemption based church in downtown Washington DC, i have been working hard these last 20 years to bring enlightenment and redemptive policies to our nation and its most under served! As you open your "eco-minds" I would encourage all occupiers to demand ownership of this nation! The combined assets & capabilities of this nations local state and federal governments, is larger then the top 500 corporations in the world, x 10! If as a movement the occupiers demand that the valuation of these local state and federal governments be assessed, and shares be distributed to all Americans on a heritage basis, We can empower everybody, right the wrongs of the past, reduce the size of the bureaucracy, and with that ownership turn this nation in to a highly tuned machine that will not only secure all of our futures but again be the light of freedom, the whole world looks to!

In order for individuals to achieve a collective goal you must do what's best for the collective. However all actions are presented and supported by different ideas. Regardless the end result is the collective action. This is the hive mind. Bees harvesting pollen share their routes while each bee decides which route they wish to travel. With this said I leave back to my hive to my collective they've been expecting me. Expect Us "dead is dead"

Occupy is more than encampments. Tents united us, but evolution is essential to our survival.
Occupy Philly very well stated, there have been many offshoots of the occupy movement that are looking to make grassroots change to the system, and there are some in the encampments that are critical of that. We wholeheartedly support positive reform of any kind.

NATIONWIDE CALL TO ACTION by Occupy JuntaOn Thursday, March 1, 2012At High NoonAt Independence Hall, Philadelphia, PA (part of Independence National Historic Park)To protest the enacting of the 2012 NDAA let us beat our drums with belligerence in a parade around the building where our Founding Fathers adopted the Declaration of Independence and drafted the Constitution of the United States.We will be assembling at the front entrance of Independence Hall starting at 11:30am. Drum Parade to begin at high noon. No permit will be requested for this event from the local authorities. The more drums we beat, the louder the call to action for the people of this country to WAKE UP. Contact Occupy Junta for more information.BEAT! BEAT! DRUMS!BY WALT WHITMAN.Beat! beat! drums!—Blow! bugles! blow!Through the windows—through the doors—burst like a force of armed men,Into the solemn church, and scatter the congregation;Into the school where the scholar is studying;Leave not the bridegroom quiet—no happiness must he have now with his bride;Nor the peaceful farmer any peace plowing his field or gathering his grain;So fierce you whirr and pound, you drums—so shrill you bugles blow.Beat! beat! drums! Blow! bugles! blow!Over the traffic of cities—over the rumble of wheels in the streets;Are beds prepared for sleepers at night in the houses?No sleepers must sleep in those beds;No bargainers' bargains by day—no brokers or speculators.Would they continue?Would the talkers be talking? would the singer attempt to sing?Would the lawyer rise in the court to state his case before the judge?Then rattle quicker, heavier drums—and bugles wilder blow.Beat! beat! drums! Blow! bugles! blow!Make no parley—stop for no expostulation;Mind not the timid—mind not the weeper or prayer;Mind not the old man beseeching the young man;Let not the child's voice be heard, nor the mother's entreaties.Recruit! recruit!Make the very trestles shake under the dead, where they lie in their shroudsawaiting the hearses.So strong you thump, O terrible drums—so loud you bugles blow.

Can you get someone on the PresO re-election team & Philly training team to make a phone banking word change? Volunteers training to work in the Obama campaign are told to field the Q... whether the Affordable Care Act is govt control of med care. The instruction to callers states, "No--this isn't single payer." Uh-oh. this false statement will confuse more people. Please inform the Philly team (& any phone bankers across the US) to just DELETE the term single payer w/ any association of PPACA! You know, just say, No, ACA is not government control, ACA overwhelmingly extends PRIVATE insurance.. Thank you for your attention to this error.

AUSTIN COFFEEHOUSE PROVIDES SAFE SPACE FOR ACTIVISTSTurns Some Area Homeless Into Business Owners Austin, TX - As many members of the media await word on the next steps from the Occupy Movement a group of active occupiers from Austin, TX have joined forces to develop their own plan to create a safe community hub for activists. Since Legion Co-Op Coffeehouse is a worker-owned business seperate of Occupy Austin, the founding members hope to create a 24 hour coffeeshop that is available not only to Occupy, but to all activists, community organizers and non-profits to use as a space for meetings and fundraisers. Legion hopes to act as a hub where community groups come together to socialize, enjoy fair trade coffee, locally produced baked goods and vegan pastries while hosting meetings or fundraisers. In addition to the private meeting rooms available free of charge to local groups, the venue, conveniently located in Austin' s growing cultural mecca on the East Side, will include an event lawn that will host larger community events and festivals as well. Legion Co-Op Coffeehouse hopes to act as a sustainable economic model, both in Austin and nationwide, on how organized groups can Occupy a space without fear of eviction, censorship or oppression by creating a self-sustaining worker-owned business in the space they occupy. By using a combination of community fundraising and allowing owners to "buy-in" only by investing their labor as capital, Legion guarantees equal access to business ownership opportunity regardless of socio-economic background. The current cooperative consists of a mix of race, gender, religion, political belief and economic circumstance, including 20% ownership by members of Austin's homeless community. "I have always worked for somebody but never for myself," says owner and student Melanie Warren." "I have never had a voice in that work environment and I have never been able to be truly proud of the work I produce. Opening this co-op with like minded individuals is an opportunity to take back my labor and start working for myself and my fellow workers in an environment that nurtures a sense of community. It is an opportunity to feel proud of my job and reach out to the community while still being able to support myself. I wish we could all have this in our lives," she said. R. Brian Harris says the opportunity to be an owner of Legion Co-Op Coffeehouse was a perfect fit for his needs. "What the disenfranchised really want is to be useful, keep busy, work their way back up to a place of security and dignity and purpose. What this opportunity means to me is a way to do that while being part of something greater than myself, with a fine group of friends and family, to provide a safe place for the community to work toward improving things for us all," said Harris. For some of those hardest hit by the current economic struggle in America, an ownership opportunity with Legion is a relief on many fronts. "Legion for me is a relief," says Cedric Bridgewater. "The job I had, I was working long hours and I still could not afford a place to live. What's wrong with this picture? I felt my dedication, time and skills would be better used at Occupy trying to change the world. I did it for a while and then reality hit...I need a job. With Legion I get to work with like minds working together for the greater good plus earn some money to one day get a place to live."For additional information you may visit http://www.austinlegion.org/Donations are currently being accepted for opening costs athttp://www.indiegogo.com/Legion-Coffee-Shop?a=421902Ongoing community donations are being collected through WePay athttps://www.wepay.com/donations/legionAnd don't forget to like us on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/legioncoffeeand follow us on Twitter @legioncoffee
