Occupy Atlanta Days 10 and 11

I’ve become too involved in #OccupyAtlanta to blog about it consistently (simply due to pressures of time). I’ll try to post if I have some free time, but I don’t have 1-2 hours a day to spend blogging, as it’s all spent at the protest[ READ MORE ]

Occupy Atlanta Day 9: A Movement Takes Shape

Previous days’ coverage can be found here. I arrived at 3:32 yesterday. The cleaning crew had come and gone, and by all accounts they were polite and didn’t interfere with the protesters. Earlier in the morning, Occupy Atlanta marched on the State Capitol with Moveon.org, but once Moveon brought out politicians to give stump speeches, [ READ MORE ]

Occupy Atlanta Day 8: Words on the Street

Previous days’ coverage can be found here. Yesterday, I went directly to the kitchen and didn’t get to Woodruff Troy Davis Park until 7:53 P.M.

Occupy Atlanta Day 4: Police Showdown

Coverage of day one can be found here. Day two can be found here. I missed day three because of a barbecue. I showed up for #OccupyAtlanta’s fourth day of protesting at six o’clock, thinking that would be when the General Assembly began, just like every other day. It didn’t however, and when I asked [ READ MORE ]

Occupy Atlanta Day 2: Woodruff Park is now Troy Davis Park

On Saturday (I apologize to my fourteen readers for being late with this) I went to Occupy Atlanta’s General Assembly. I arrived at 7:08 P.M., about an hour into the Assembly. I don’t think I missed much, and here’s what happened while I was there. The crowd was much smaller than before, probably about seventy-five [ READ MORE ]
