Drums, Puppets, & Dissing Libertarians: What We Saw at the Occupy Anniversary Protest in NYC
HD DownloadWhat has the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement accomplished?
On Monday, September 17, 2012 - the one-year anniversary of the original encampment in Manhattan's Zuccotti Park - Occupiers staged a day of civil disobedience and attempted to block access to the New York Stock Exchange. They were met by pre-emptive barricades from the New York Police Department, who wouldn't allow anyone into the immediate vicinity of the exchange without photo ID and proof of employment.
Reason TV's Kennedy was on the scene to ask the demonstrators what they've accomplished so far, whether President Obama supports them, their opinion of libertarians, and much more.
About 3.20 minutes.
Produced by Anthony L. Fisher, with help from Jim Epstein.
