An afternoon occupying Wall Street

Here are a few impressions for those who have not had the chance or may not be able to go down to Zuccoti Park. Despite the swirling mass of people and the myriad activities political speeches, a meditation circle, a Peoples' Bookstore store set up on tables, people handing out pamphlets and carrying anti-Wall Street signs, a couple of singers doing African rhythms, a woman barber cutting hair, donated clothes in piles and on racks, despite all that and more) there was a sense of energy and purpose rather than chaos. No one knows where this is going, but we can all hope that it is the sstart of a mass movement for progressive change and we can do our part to make that happen.
