As many of you know, this week the temporary restraining order was lifted from
the camp, which was promptly followed by a 12-hour eviction notice from the
mayor, issued yesterday, giving protesters until midnight to voluntary leave
Dewey Square.  We did not leave we grew.

In response, over a thousand people showed up for an all-night dance party.  
The Second Line Band played until 2 a.m.   Veterans for Peace were out in
force.   Rogue bankers were circling the park, shouting to defend the right to
private property.    We took over Atlantic Avenue and set up tents in the
street   It was an amazing night!

In the next 72 hours, with your help we will fill Dewey Square between the
hours of 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. ---  If you have a band, a costume, a secret stash
of giant puppets --- if you can show up at midnight and run a teach-in on ANY
subject -- if you have been wanting to organize a build party, a workshop, or a
flashmob --  please come out between now and Sunday!    The daytime hours, from
now until Sunday, will be spent cleaning, organizing, discussing, and figuring
out how to move forward.

We're looking for people TONIGHT, tomorrow, and Sunday, get on the schedule of
events for the next 72 hours.   We have GA tonight at 7.   If you're
interested, please get in touch with us ASAP!

EDUCATION & ENTERTAINMENT ARE A WEAPON OF MASS CONSTRUCTION

Are you angry at the state of the American and global economy? The illegal and
irresponsible greed literally stealing our democracy? Have you been politicized
yet?

Come support Occupy Boston's right to assemble and to explore the
unconscionable, illegal acts of giant corporations, banks and of Wall street.
Come support our insistence in creating a truly representative democratic
process which leads to effective, creative responses to the mod us operand i of
the corporations with full rights as a person and none of the responsibilities?
Let us end welfare for the rich.

The Boston Mayor & Police Chief want us out. Last night we created a well
attended and festive environment to protect our right to occupy Dewey square,
to continue free speech and to role model and explore representative democracy
and a society for the good of all.

Last night, the Second Line Band showed up and played for three hours.   If we
can get a musical act, Soap Box teach-ins, street theater acts ... starting at
11 p.m. (trespass deadline!) and continuing until 2am for the next four days,
we will demonstrate public support for Occupy Boston; defend against the
upcoming midnight raids as well as keep Occupy Boston focused on the issues,
non violent and demonstrative of a-new-day-is-possible.   We may not do this
forever -- if we do it until Sunday, a huge win for us.

In the first days of the Seattle Occupation, educators 'stood' with students,
on the front lines by presenting classes into the wee hours of the morning.
Both protecting, calming and educating the young activists.

Join us by scheduling programming between the hours of 10 p.m. to 2 a.m.

We will generate an updated schedule for tonight by 6 tonight.  Please be in
contact with Katie or Kevin:  katie.gradowski at gmail.com, kevin at occupyboston.org
, and cc fsu at occupybosotn.org if you are available to occupy any time, any day
after 11pm.
