Adbusters  |  Adbusters #151: Siege on the White House
On September 17th, it will have been nine years since we set off the political earthquake of #OccupyWallStreet, laying siege to NYC’s Zuccotti Park. And it may be the perfect day to trigger another global big-bang moment — a massive collective action of the sweetest kind of disobedience.
For these nine years, the shadows have only grown longer. Inequality has soared. Not a single Wall Street CEO spent a night in jail after the 2008 financial meltdown. Politicians and corporate criminals continue to savage the public trust with impunity. And all the while, this howling void of a president, his sins too many to name, sits smugly atop a corona death-toll that may surpass two-hundred thousand Americans by Christmas.
So, on September 17th, in the original and enduring spirit of Occupy, thousands will lay siege to the White House. Drawing wind from #MeToo, #BLM, #ExtinctionRebellion, let's once again summon the sweet, revolutionary nonviolence that was our calling card in Zuccotti Park. Be a part of history. See you on September 17th in Lafayette Square.
