Act Out! [39] - Fall Rising, Democracy Spring, Stuart Schuffman, and Don't Buy Shit

Act Out! [39] - Fall Rising, Democracy Spring, Stuart Schuffman, and Don't Buy Shit
Wed, 11/25/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week, let's take a peak at last week's TPP uprising in D.C. and get inspired to jump on board for the next one. Next, money in politics may not be the sexiest issue to talk about but it is the biggest – from tweets to marching in the streets, here are some bad ass ways to join the fight. Then, inaction is dangerous game, Stuart Schuffman, a.k.a. "broke-ass Stuart," talks living cheaply and running for mayor. And finally, #OptOutside, don't buy shit, and Happy Thanksgiving.

 

But first, let me muse on a muse I once came across peddling tunes on a crowded street one late afternoon.
