Awesomely fun video: NYU students and workers castrate then break Wallie, the bull shaped pinata representing there school’s connection to finance capital.
School of Visual Arts students’ poster creations for their “Opposites” design assignment.
“For “Opposites,” they had to choose two opposing issues, objects, or concepts, and then represent their relationship in a memorable 11” by 17” poster. The posters challenged students to be conceptual thinkers, to simplify, and to consider visual impact— the skills required for the especially conceptual task of developing a corporate identity.”

We, independent members of the Occupy Seattle movement, are occupying this Chase bank to interrupt business as usual…
…We refuse to live in a world in which power matters more than human lives and transactions more than relationships. We refuse to live in a world where survival-“getting a job”-means increasing the wealth of our bosses. We refuse to live in a world, in a country that never outgrew slavery-only sublimated it to the point we don’t recognize it, because its whips and chains have been replaced by redlining and unaffordable healthcare, or else hidden in the prisons that warehouse the people of color once enchained out in the open. We refuse to live a world that inevitably confers privilege to upper-class, straight, white men, as it does under the rule of capital and the perpetual indentured servitude of the oppressed. We refuse to live in a world where we are accountable to anyone than our interdependent equals. We refuse to live in a world where we are anything other than absolutely free.
Live your desires. Join us. This world is ours-all of ours-and don’t let them tell you anything different. We will build it together.
"— From the Statement of the Bank Occupiers of November 2, 2011
"The Story of Broke, is a response to the bogus forced austerity programs that the US and many other governments are forcing on our communities. We are being told that we can’t afford clean energy, and that environmental protection is too expensive because we’re broke. But we’re not broke! There is plenty of money to start building a better future, but that money is being hijacked."
Occupy Worcester (MA) Occupies a Home Foreclosure Auction
Just before 11 am today- November 8, 2011, members of the Worcester Anti-Foreclosure Team (WAFT), homeowners Pablo and Shirley Travieso and family, and members of Occupy Worcester lined up in front of the Traviesos’ two-story house at 24 Illinois St. — where the family has lived for 10 years — and drowned out the voice of auctioneer John Baker by chanting loudly, and blocked his entry to the property.
