<br>***********************************************************************************<br><br>DECEMBER 3 UNITY + COMMUNITY RALLY -- THE 99% SPEAK OUT!<br><br>On December 3, occupiers, activists, and community members will be holding a <u>distributed march and rally</u> across Boston, <u>starting in neighborhoods across the city and culminating with a speak-out in Copley Square</u>.
It's a chance for the wider Boston community to meet the 99 percent,
and for the 99 percent to organize visibly around ALL the issues that
matter to us. <br>
<br>We need your help!<u> The basic idea: from 10-12, everyone takes a street corner. </u>
Whatever your issue is -- tar
sands, school closings, wage cuts, supercommittee cuts, the wars in Iraq
and Afghanistan, the eviction of OWS, s-comm, corporate welfare -- take
a street corner and tell people why you're here! <u>After that, we'll all gather in Copley Square from 1-4 p.m. for a speak-out and celebration of the 99 percent.</u> <br>
<br>WIthin Occupy Boston, we have an incredibly diverse set of talents, issues, and interests. <u>Whatever it is that you do that makes the site great, consider
taking it offsite for a day and bringing it to the wider community!</u> It could be anything -- hosting a puppet show, running a civil disobedience training, canvassing on a particular issue, distributing food or clothing, hosting an off-site teach-in, building a tiny house on a random street corner in Boston. <br>
<br>They say our differences will divide us. They say we don't have
concrete issues, claims, or goals. Join us on December 3 for a day of
celebration, conversation and change -- take the issues to the
neighborhoods where they are most strongly felt, and then bring those
issues to the square to make our voices heard. <br><b><br></b>Please share widely, discuss with your friends, bring it to your working group, and consider getting involved! (and forward to any working groups not on this list!)<br>
<br><br><b>Open planning meeting: November 28, 5 p.m. (tentatively at SEIU615)</b><br><b><br>Distributed rallies across Boston: December 3 from 10-12 p.m.<br>
<br>Speak-out in Copley Square: December 4 from 1-4 p.m.</b><br><br><b>IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING, please email <a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:street at lists.occupyboston.org" target="_blank" href="/mc/compose?to=street at lists.occupyboston.org">street at lists.occupyboston.org</a>. </b>(main contact within Occupy Boston)<br>
