#Occupied: Reports From the Front Lines

This week in Occupy, the arrival of Spring brought everyone back into the streets, thousands rallied for Trayvon Martin, Union Square was #occupied and Occupy UC Davis permanently closed a bank branch.


#After Liberty Square was raided and barricaded on the Occupy Movement’s six-month anniversary – a move which proved illegal - demonstrators gathered in Union Square Park and stayed there, opening up another major New York occupation.

#On March 21, members of Occupy Oakland set up a “secret solidarity camp” in Mosswood Park – which they renamed Huey P. Newton Park after the co-founder of the Black Panthers – formed in solidarity with the police raid that followed Occupy Wall Street’s six-month anniversary celebrations.
