Occupy SoCal Conference Sat. February 11, 2012

First Occupy SoCal Conference this Saturday, to be held in San Diego. The event begins at the Civic Center and will consist of marches, free speech speak outs on corners through out San Diego, break out groups, lunch, GA, dinner, socializing, music and open mic.

Occupy San Diego is still here. We are not going anywhere. We have a mission, to make change happen, no matter the work involved or how long it takes. We know it takes passion, purpose and power in numbers to change things. We know we have to work with other occupations.

Join us and start using your own voice and tell your story. We all have had different upbringings and experiences in life and will not always agree on everything. But what we can agree on is, all people deserve a decent life, happiness, health care, shelter, food, clothing and love.

Morning Report: Cops and Cover Ups

We have watched videos like those below with great interest because we have learned that the lapdog media is perfectly content to ignore them. They are the work of citizen journalists who have attempted to compensate for this negligence, the alternative media becoming the primary purveyors of videos and news coverage of occurrences pertaining to the Occupation Movement. And guess what? The cops don't like it...  Read @:  Occupy Los Angeles

Occupy The Rose Parade

In accordance with their long history of allowing protest, Rose Parade and Pasadena officials have
authorized the Occupy the Rose Parade movement to march at the end of the parade, after all the floats
have passed and the phalanx of police cars moves through, but while the crowd is still in place. The tea
party won't be on hand and Occupy activists said this was a disappointment...  Read more:  Occupy Los Angeles

Occupy LA Not Going Anywhere, We Are Everywhere!

It is the morning of the 58^th day of Occupy Los Angeles. I am not physically at the occupation, but my heart still is. We were scheduled to go to a conference, which will lead to making a stronger network for all occupy cities. I know some people on the ground in Los Angeles are unhappy I left, not realizing I am of more use on the ground continuing to work and lend support, then I would be protesting and put in jail. I am currently waiting on the results of Councilman Rosenthals call for a temporary hold. Remember the city council did sign a resolution in support of us!...  Read more:   Occupy Los Angeles
