Democracy Rebellion Begins To Roll

Democracy Rebellion Begins To Roll
Sun, 7/6/2014 - by Bill Moyer

Rolling Rebellion actions have begun. Light Projections around the Capitol by Backbone Campaign, Popular Resistance’s “Which Side Are You On Tom?” musical asking FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler to stand with the people and declare independence from the telecoms, and Money Out of Politics projection actions across Baltimore by the Luminous Intervention.

The US Democracy Movement is growing. It is creatively Declaring Independence from the oligarchy and their corporate state. Getting Money Out of Politics is one essential component of battling the corruption of our political, legal and economic systems. People around the country are embracing and insisting upon the self-evident,endowed by creator, unalienable rights which the Declaration of Independence celebrated and promised to uphold.
