"The real menace of our Republic is the invisible government which
like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy legs over our cities states and
nation. At the head is a small group of banking houses generally
referred to as 'international bankers.' This little coterie... run our
government for their own selfish ends. It operates under cover of a
self-created screen...[and] seizes...our executive officers...
legislative bodies... schools... courts... newspapers and every agency
created for the public protection." -- John F. Hylan (1868-1936), Mayor of New York City (1918-1925), nicknamed "Red Mike"

"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental
opinion of the day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a
distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of
ministers (adminstrators) too plainly proves a deliberate, systematic

Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US

Take The Pledge
"I pledge that if any U.S. troops, contractors, or mercenaries
remain in Afghanistan on Thursday, October 6, 2011, as that occupation
goes into its 11th year, I will commit to being in Freedom Plaza in
Washington, D.C., with others on that day or the days immediately
following, for as long as I can, with the intention of making it our
Tahrir Square, Cairo, our Madison, Wisconsin, where we will
NONVIOLENTLY resist the corporate machine by occupying Freedom Plaza
until our resources are invested in human needs and environmental
protection instead of war and exploitation. We can do this together. We
will be the beginning."

Thinking about Revolution

John Adams wrote in 1815 that the American Revolution was not the

Revolution that we are here attempting to achieve:

"Rebellion Has Arrived In America"
By Mike Krieger
I will be the first to admit that I faded the whole idea of this

attempts at protest in NYC come and go and I just sadly assumed the
spirit of that once great city had died forever. I am extraordinarily
happy to report that I was wrong.
