Occupy America
END THE WAR and bring back trillions of dollars to America. END CORPORATE PERSONHOOD and bring it back to We The People. END LOBBYISTS THAT ARE INFECTING OUR NATION WITH GREED and bring back democracy. END TAX BREAKS ON BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES and help lower the U.S. debt. REINSTATE THE BANKING ACT OF 1933 and regulate the banks. AUDIT THE FED and find out exactly what the fuck it is they’re doing.
How can so many people call me a “freeloading hippie” for being in this movement? I paid 5 grand in taxes last year and I am only 24. I have a job and I work hard. I don’t understand the opposition.

‘Everyone’s God and if we don’t wake up to that there’s going to be no weather because our polar caps are melting because we’re doing bad things to the atmosphere.
‘If we don’t change that as rapidly as I’m speaking to you now, if we don’t put the green back on the planet and put the trees back that we’ve butchered, if we don’t go to war against the problem…’ he added, trailing off.

How To Build Global Community
Think of no one as “them”
Don’t confuse your comfort with your safety
Talk to strangers
Imagine other cultures through their art, poetry and novels
Listen to music you don’t understand - dance to it
Act locally
Notice the workings of power & privilege in your culture
Question consumption
Know how your coffee and lettuce are grown; wake up and smell the exploitation
Look for fair trade and union labels
Help build economies from the bottom up
Acquire few needs
Learn a second (or third) language
Visit people, places, and cultures - not tourist attractions
Learn people’s history - redefine progress
Know physical and political geography
Play games from other cultures - Watch films with subtitles
Know your heritage
Honor everyone’s heritage
Look at the moon and imagine someone else, somewhere else, looking at it too
Read the UN’s Declaration of Human Rights
Understand the global economy in terms of people, land and water
Know where your bank banks
Never believe you have a right to anyone else’s resources
Refuse to wear corporate logos: defy corporate domination
Question military/corporate connections
Don’t confuse money with wealth, or time with money
Have a pen/e-mail pal
Honor indigenous cultures
Judge governance by how well it meets all people’s needs
Be skeptical about what you read
Eat adventurously - Enjoy vegetables, beans, and grains in your diet
Choose curiosity over certainty
Know where your water comes from and where your wastes go
Pledge allegiance to the earth: question nationalism
Think South, Central, and North - there are many Americans
Assume that many others share your dreams
Know that no one is silent but many are not heard - Work to change this.
Got this today, and I’m extremely glad to have it.
my favorite teacher has this in her classroom!
