PEOPLES MOVEMENT
It is my hope that someday these causes will be eliminated that a better society is established for all.
Another World Is Possible.
At 1:14 you can hear a police officer say “Hey guys, everybody lock somebody up,” talking to a bunch of other police officers after protestors left Union Square on Sept. 24. This is just after the police arbitrarily arrested Glenn Davis Jr., as seen here . This is just before things got really ugly at the intersection of W. 12 Street and University Place, as seen here and here .

TIME: Friday, September 30 · 5:30pm - 7:00pm
Place: One Police Plaza (NYPD Headquarters)
We the undersigned condemn recent police attacks against the Occupy Wall Street demonstrations underway in Lower Manhattan.
The NYPD has: -pepper sprayed people in custody -violently arrested non violent demonstrators -curtailed the expressive activities of demonstrators in Liberty Square All of this is part of a long standing practice of the NYPD to make public protest extremely difficult, unpleasant, and even dangerous. Join us in calling for an end to police repression of protests in New York, and to support the ongoing Occupy Wall Street demonstration.
Please invite your friends. To sign onto this call, add your name to the wall and we will add people to the official list as best we can. Please include any relevant identifying information.
