This was posted on Occupy Portland's Facebook page earlier today.  Marianne Williamson does an unbelievable job of laying out what I feel is the moral imperative behind Occupy, what's at stake, and what it means to truly follow the principles of nonviolent resistance...and so much more.  Well worth the lengthy listen.

WE ARE HERE PROTESTING IN THE BELLY OF THE BEAST FOR GOOD REASON!

Put together a slate of candidates that are honest people drawn from the occupy movement's ranks and elect them to Congress. The first order of business is to take big money out of federal politics. Pass the Fair Elections Now Act (S. 750 and H.R. 1404). A law where political candidates for federal office would raise a large number of small contributions from their communities in order to qualify for Fair Elections funding. Contributions are limited to $100.00. Strictly voluntary by the…

Thanks to a blog "Linked To The Land" by a friend of mine in the A New Gaia community (also on Ning), my receptivity was opened as I posted in comment for her blog.

However, your quiet benevolent thinking Judi, about community has led me in a "new" direction today.  I read this blog over brunch after yoga.  Had I been…

This is my farewell gift to you all. I believe I've given all I have to give and there are a number of you who will be glad to see me gone. May you get what you wish for! 

But here's a question that may be more important than any other asked here: Who the hell are you to think you speak for the 99%?

                                                                                    Open My heart

To the rhythm of tides and seasons; to the rhythm of my own blood   

                                                                                   Open my heart

To the footsteps before mine in the sand, of peoples and creatures

To the footsteps after mine in the…

Eugene Robinson ( Washington Post Journalist, Putizer Prize Winner 2010), said a few moments ago on MSNBC.

I am not all that great at putting concepts into words sometimes.  Maybe my brain is just too full of school-there is no space left over to really articulate what I see, think, and feel.  Fortunately for me, there are folks around who are especially talented at doing just that.  This is a post written by…

Very exciting to see the  diversity that is the 99% in the faces of those marching this morning from Union Park to Liberty Plaza.  

The unencamped Occupy now has a face of inclusion that it never had before. 

This has nothing to do with the Tea Party. It's the WE, Party and it appeals to 100% of the people, 100% of the time. The …

WE The People (WE) created three petitions for Occupy Wall Street (WE Party Peace Ambassadors) to sign.…
