Occupy Oakland October 10; 4 pm

Occupy_Oakland October 10
The Oakland General Assembly decided today that the people of Oakland will occupy Frank Ogawa Plaza at the corner of 14th & Broadway on Monday, October 10 starting at 4:00pm in solidarity with Occupy Wall Street, the many occupations underway across the country and Indigenous Resistance Day.
The flyer also includes the announcement about the next planning meeting this coming Thursday October 6, at 5:00pm at Mosswood park. We expect to have workshops, food, music, childcare, a library and much more. Come ready to spend the night or just swing by to say hello. Let’s do this Oakland style!

The "Occupy Wall Street" protest is spreading to different cities around the nation. Bakersfield residents on Friday will hold a first meeting as part of the "Occupy Bakersfield Movement."

Organizers plan to meet at the Starbucks on California Avenue, just north of Stockdale Highway at 3:30 p.m. From there, the group will move to the corner of California Avenue and Stockdale Highway and begin the first official "Occupy Bakersfield" protest.

Organizers have also set up an "Occupy Bakersfield Movement" Facebook page, www.facebook.com/groups/wearethe99percent

“But what they don’t understand is that the district uses that information for other things, other than free and reduced lunches. So it’s just easier to just ask everyone to fill them out. That way, over the years districts have been able to get that information from parents, and it does present a way for districts to get additional federal money.”

EUGENE, Ore. – The Occupy Wall Street protests have been going on for the past three weeks in New York City and some people in Eugene have been involved in the movement.
Sam Chapman is a senior at the University of Oregon. He noticed that several other cities across the country had movements in support of Occupy Wall Street, so he wanted to create a group for Eugene.
“If there’s one other city that can pull this off, its Eugene,” Chapman said.  “So I said, ‘there’s no harm in making a Facebook page and seeing what happens ,‘ and within 24 hours we had over 200 members and a dialogue was rolling.”
His Facebook page “Occupy Eugene” has over one thousand members.
