| | | | | | | | Occupy Wall Street came and went. It changed everything. And it changed nothing. Despite galvanizing a radical new generation and putting revolutionary politics on the map, OWS left things much as they were back then — if not worse. So, with Occupy 2.0, we’re leveling up.
This time our target is bigger than Big Finance. From the banks to the oil corporations to the very machinery of politics, we’re going after the whole web of systemic rot that’s jeopardizing the future of life on Earth.
And this time we won’t lose focus. We won't fizzle out as winter approaches. This time we’re playing the planetary endgame to win. We're going to hang in there with crystal-clear demands and widespread civil disobedience until our leaders finally blink, and listen, and act.
We need to grow the Third Force network from 20,000 to 200,000. Eventually, we want millions on board. In this 11th hour of human reckoning, as the limp Left and rabid Right grind out their doomed stalemate, we will emerge and think the unthinkable, do the undoable to set planet earth on a sane, sustainable path. | | | | | | | | | | | Our kickoff action is to go after world leaders for their colossal mishandling of the climate crisis. Our demand? That they immediately call an extraordinary summit of the G20 to declare a Global Climate Emergency. This is the common-sense first step out of our climate crisis that just about every person on our planet can whole heartedly agree on. This Saturday September 17th, is the eleventh anniversary of Occupy Wall Street. Whether alone or with a few activist friends, slap ULTIMATUM #1 TO WORLD LEADERS on windows, bus stops and lampposts all over your city. Make the message go viral in cyberspace. Snap world leaders out of their suicidal inaction whatever way you can. Then hunker down, stay in touch, and at critical moments, be ready to play jazz. Forward this tactical briefing to your friends and comrades and prepare yourself for the long and dangerous year ahead. | | | | | | | | | For the Wild,
