David Swanson:Freedom Plaza Is Now Ours

And we're never giving it back. Our permit for Freedom Plaza in Washington, D.C., expired, we refused to leave, and the Park Police has just proposed to let us stay for four more months.

We've agreed. We have not said that when the four months are over and the American Spring is here we will leave.

In fact, we intend to make it possible for anyone to visit D.C. with free accommodations. Just bring a sleeping bag and agree to work with us to pressure Congress, the White House, K Street, the Pentagon, and all the lobbyists and profiteers for peace and justice. We have free food, we have free drink, we have free trainings and seminars, we have tents, we have peace keepers, we have a big victory under out belts, and we welcome all peace makers for they shall inherit Freedom Plaza. We own it. It is ours. It shall remain ours world without end.

(snip)
So, here's the plan: Bring us your reports from around the country at your local Occupations. Fill us in here in the Empire's Capital. We will fill you in too. We will train and inspire and connect you with the rest of this global movement. Then go back home energized. Come down from New York and go back up. We need to coordinate on a personal level.

7. K&R it is back up now.

I am joyous. I think there is even one starting up in my town. This has been needed for a long long time and it is being done to perfection.

I have not been around much lately, off and on, does anyone have a site where you can send goods that are needed? These folks are going to need longjohns and wool socks, coats etc.

My undying support and my heart is in NYC and DC and all over the country where people are working for those of us who can't be there. If we can't be there we can send what is needed and be active here.
