The Occupy Essay is out [View all]


The Occupy Essay is out

http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/120904

I had to do some corrections, for the file to work...

Anyway, it has a short history of the movement, going to early planning stages, as well as the connections to Wisconsin and the Arab Spring and the rest of it.

Chapter Two concentrates on the political agenda and how it works.

Chapter Three is all about the State and Elite response...

It also has the Declaration of the General Assembly and a suggested reading list.

Suffice it to say, I expect to have to revise and grow this in three to six months, since this is truly a moving target and a fast moving target.

I could have waited for the next port action, or Occupy Congress (On the 17) or hells bells, my city council this Wednesday... but there has to be a point where you go, here, go for it... and add a good source to the discussion.

Realize a lot of it is LOCALLY BASED... but some themes are quite national.

Oh and the price was the lowest for distro to NOOK from Smashwords...
