Celebrating Six Months of #OWS: Six Legendary Performances @ Zuccotti Park
Fri, 3/23/2012

Perhaps no one could have anticipated the emergence of the Occupy Wall St. Movement or the cultural renaissance that would bring new life to the worlds of journalism, art, film and, of course, music. Almost immediately, Zuccotti Park became the most exciting venue in New York City to witness live performances from both iconic and unknown artists. To celebrate the recent six-month anniversary of the movement on March 17, we have compiled videos of six of the most legendary performances at Zuccotti Park thus far. Here's to another six months and beyond. Happy Birthday, Occupy.

President-elect Donald Trump isn’t just appointing incompetent buffoons to his Cabinet, but deeply immoral individuals who are completely lacking in family values.
