Philly, Where It All Began

Philly, Where It All Began
Tue, 5/15/2012

May Day may be over, but summer's nearly here and there is still plenty of music and fun ahead. The National Gathering Working Group and members of InterOccupy will be organizing the "Occupy National Gathering," featuring music and performances on July 4 in Philadelphia.

"This movement will always live primarily at the local level," the Occupy National Gathering Proposal reads, "but every great movement should have the chance to gather en masse as a demonstration of solidarity and strength."

The proposal has been submitted to every General Assembly in the country, and many have already ratified it.

"We will also prove, through the entire process leading up to July 4, that our movement is capable of coordinating mass action and collaborating on a broad scale, while still holding fast to our principles," the proposal also read.

Journalists have a responsibility to plainly tell the truth about how truly different the Democrats and the Republicans are today, especially with both democracy and the rule of law at stake this November.

From Hungary and Poland to Italy and Spain, today's anti-abortionist movements are feeding one another—while also driving a growing counter-movement.

Agriculture, the service economy, sexual exploitation, manufacturing, construction and domestic work drive today's enslavement around the world.

Thanks to the Electoral College, leftists have perhaps the final say this November over whether democracy can hold on for at least another four years, or if fascism will take root and infect all facets of the federal government for decades to come.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

History shows there are no “one-day” dictatorships. When democracies fall, they typically fall completely.
