Walking the Undergroud...Final destination...Occupy Chicago |
|
Edited on Thu Nov-17-11 09:43 PM by Renwiick
What is the movement about to me....It's about the loneliness associated with unemployment. It's about the emptiness one feels when they see a government divided. It's about taking your college diploma off the wall because you no longer feel worthy of it. It's about wanting to be a success in the eyes of your parents knowing that they are patiently waiting for you to move out of the house. It's about marching down LaSalle Street wondering if you still have a voice only to discover that all voices have a home at the Democratic Underground.

8. Same here, a friend and I went for a bit |

It was really late this evening, though (just got back), so it wasn't as energized as earlier, but definitely really great to go to.
