OCCUPY!
This week we will be discussing the Occupy Wall St. movement and its sister organizations around the nation. How and why it came about and how we can relate to it here locally, where an Occupy Houston group has been formed. For further background, please read the following articles:
Raising the voice of protest
Turning up the heat on Wall Street
10 years into Afghanistan
Also, with the tenth anniversary of the war coming up, it is a good time to assess whether the Obama administration actually differs from the previous administration when it comes to what was previously known as the "War on Terror". These articles shed some light on the situation:
Rehabilitating U.S. intervention
Assassinated on Obama's orders
Even the liberals are tired of this war, btw:
