Occupy Wall Street Chronicles, Part 1

Published: Nov. 24, 2011, 8:26 p.m.

Welcome to Episode 87 of Light On Light Through, in which I offer ongoing commentary about Occupy Wall Street, September 27 through November 23, 2011.\xa0 The commentary first appeared in 15 blog posts - dates, titles, and links to the text of the blog posts are listed below.\xa0 Main themes include Occupy Wall Street as a resurgence of direct democracy, police violation of the First Amendment in their violence against protesters and the press, failure of the Obama administration to protect the rights of Occupy citizens attacked by munipalities, and much more.\xa0 This podcast is about 55 minutes in length.\xa0 It is intended as both analysis and eyewitness to one of the most important revolutions in human history.\xa0 Further chronicles will appear here in subsequent months.
