Before OWS’s Occupy the Courts Rally, they had a discussion with Lawerence Lessig and Chris Hedges, who I believe represent the two distinct forces coming out of the Occupy Winter and the debate of Revolution vs. Reform.
THE ANSWER IS YES: FOCUS ON HOW TO DELEGITAMIZE THE CENTERS OF POWER
THE QUESTION IS HOW: ANY WAY WE CAN AND IN MULTIPLE WAYS,
We all have to agree on this, so we can achieve the change we believe in!

Thanks to all who attended the first Philly+ Occupy Regional Gathering!  Over 200 occupiers attended this gathering from all over Philadelphia and places as diverse as Minneapolis, San Francisco, Memphis, New York, Delaware, Baltimore, and New Jersey. It was held Saturday December 10th at the Friends Center (15th & Cherry).  The event began at 9:00am with welcomes and ended at 4:30pm with a direct action march to the Dow Corporation.  A lot of great things happened in between and a lot of great connections were forged!
