I attended the Occupy Jacksonville action at Hemming Plaza on October 8 and I must say, at first I had my doubts about the protest, but it turned out to be a great event! I was blown away by the diverse mixture of people. The power a group of people like that have is astoinishing. Hopefully we can keep this moving and get the message out that governments are created to protect the rights of people, not corporations.
At the event I passed out lots of flyers for our upcoming action and talked to a variety of people. Many of the people there were very interested in the cause and I believe this will be our best turnout ever! We still have two weeks to go, so every needs to be promoting the event on Facebook and among their friends. If you would like flyers to pass out, please get in touch with me so we can meet up or I can send you a stack through the mail.
Thanks everyone and lets keep this momentum going!
Don't forget to sign up for the October 22 Publix action in Riverside
