Occupy Poughkeepsie Rally and March Videos and Pictures!

What a great day! Almost 300 folks showed up to show their solidarity with the occupiers of Poughkeepsie on Saturday! We had amazing performers and speakers and a beautifully diverse audience; all colors, all ages, from all walks of life! The energy was high and the feeling of oneness strong.

Thanks to Jodiah Jacobs for these photos!

It is getting colder and the mostly, young occupiers need all of our ongoing support. Join them on facebook, join Occupy Poughkeepsie Moms and Dads (who provide a hot meal every night) and go down and visit. General Assemblies are everyday at noon and 7PM. Go to their website OccupyPoughkeepsie.org to see what supplies they need.

And here is a great video of New Paltz Mayor Jason West talking about what the occupiers have in common with the Sermon on the Mount! As I said in my last hard copy of Clear Stream,

"I believe the spirit of the New Earth we are creating can best be seen in the Occupy movement. Occupiers model equality, inclusiveness, peace and compassion- the values needed to create a saner, more just and loving world."

We are the 99% and we have just begun.
