On Tuesday February the 7th at 7 am Fight for Philly, Occupy Philly and several other labor and community organizing groups loaded on a bus to head for the Pennsylvania state capital to protest Governor Tom Corbbet's budget proposal.
They Joined Occupiers and other community groups from across the state on in the capital building to listen to Gov. Corbbet's proposal and to call on him to end the corporate welfare state that has existed in Pennsylvania for along time.
This is part III in Occupy Philadelphia's 'Dissecting Capitalism' workshop series. Many thanks to LAVA autonomous space for hosting these very enlightening conversations.
Amie Fishman of Catalyst Project and Chris Crass recently developed a toolkit on anti-racist organizing in the Occupy moment. We are excited to share the introduction to the toolkit with our readers. You can access the whole toolkit here.
Update: The Health Department voted to proceed with the proposed regulation, meaning there will be a 30-day period of public comment. Stay tuned for upcoming plans to fight this measure!
