Everyone in NYC and USA - TAKE TO THE STREETS ON THURSDAY 17 NOVEMBER!!!


Resist Austerity - Reclaim the Economy - Recreate Our Democracy

- and -

Show some solidarity with our Greek sisters and brothers who will be occupying central Athens in protest of the country's new, unelected, Troika-imposed bankster regime. On the anniversary of the 17 November 1973 Politechnio protests that spelled the beginning of the end of the junta, no less.

The peoples of Greece (and a number of other countries) have it in their power to liberate themselves from the present international financial tyranny and spark its collapse worldwide.

Imagine now that this is the beginning of the end for subordinating sovereign peoples to debt slavery and the dictates of neoliberalism. It's time!

4. I will be walking the picket line at CSU East Bay for an historic faculty strike...
...at the largest public university in the United States. For ONCE I'll be able to be in the right place at the right time, i.e. walking a picket line on the day called for a general march!

11. Better a day's traffic jam (in New York? that's every day) than 40 years of debt slavery.
To paraphrase a famous Greek quote.

15. Our local SEIU is sponsoring a sign-making party
tonight and tomorrow different groups are scheduled to set up at different overpasses on the main freeway that goes through the city between 4:30 and 6:00. Groups include 4 different county's Labor Councils, education professionals and students, Democratic Party and Community Groups, SEIU and our local Occupy group. I'll be hangin' with the Labor Councils as that one is within walking distance.
