Saturday: Huge Global Day of Action in Solidarity With Occupy Wall Street

Saturday is going to be a huge day for the 99% movement, as there are plans to hold a day of action in over 950 cities in 82 countries around the world. From the 15October website:

On October 15th people from all over the world will take to the streets and squares.

From America to Asia, from Africa to Europe, people are rising up to claim their rights and demand a true democracy. Now it is time for all of us to join in a global non violent protest.

The ruling powers work for the benefit of just a few, ignoring the will of the vast majority and the human and environmental price we all have to pay. This intolerable situation must end.

United in one voice, we will let politicians, and the financial elites they serve, know it is up to us, the people, to decide our future. We are not goods in the hands of politicians and bankers who do not represent us.

On October 15th, we will meet on the streets to initiate the global change we want. We will peacefully demonstrate, talk and organize until we make it happen.

It’s time for us to unite. It’s time for them to listen.

Here's a map of where actions are taking place, and a Facebook page with more details. Find the action in your city!

And if you're in New York City, join some of us from AlterNet for the march in Times Square from 5-8pm. There's also a march on Chase bank so customers can close their accounts. That starts at 11am at Liberty Plaza.
