The Occupy Caravan Starts Now

The Occupy Caravan Starts Now
Mon, 6/11/2012

One hundred years after the birth of American folk singer hero Woody Guthrie, famous for "This Land Is Your Land," the Occupy Caravan will travel the nation’s highways to spread the word that we need to end corporate rule, reclaim our government and establish a new measure of economic fairness for all.

The Caravan kicks off within the hour from Oscar Grant Plaza in Oakland, while the LA Caravan has just departed with several vehicles and buses and will be traversing the southern United States. Two more caravans are set to leave from Portland and Seattle. You can watch the journey on two separate livestreams and follow the route map here. Cities visited will include Denver, Albuquerque, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Charlotte, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh, culminating in a large gathering in Washington D.C. on June 30.

This last month has shown America that society will gladly tolerate vigilante violence, provided a vigilante chooses the right target.

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

Biden cared more about the appearance of having an independent DOJ untainted by politics than he did about holding an unrepentant criminal ex-president accountable.

The American people clearly spoke, and the drubbing Democrats received requires looking beyond just issue polls, voting patterns, campaign strategy, or get-out-the-vote tactics.

If the Democrats’ theme of 2017 was Resistance, the theme for Democrats in 2025 needs to instead be Opposition — and these two GOP senators may be the models to emulate.
