“For too long the 99% have been ignored as our economic system has collapsed. The Wall Street banks got bailouts and Main Street has been sold out, ” said Harrison Schultz, business analyst from Brooklyn . “Wall Street’s greed has corrupted our country and is killing our planet.



But today OWS celebrates victory and vows to keep fighting for justice and change on Wall Street, and in over 100 cities in the US and over 950 cities globally.”



On October 15th, Occupy Wall Street will demonstrate in concert over 951 cities in 82 countries and counting as people around the globe protest in an international day of solidarity against the greed and corruption of the 1%.



Occupy Wall Street is a people powered movement that began on September 17, 2011 in Liberty Square in Manhattan’s Financial District, and has spread to over 100 cities in the United States and actions in over 1,500 cities globally. #OWS is fighting back against the corrosive power of major banks and multinational corporations on the democratic process, and the role of Wall Street in creating an economic collapse and caused the greatest recession in generations. The movement is inspired by uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia, Spain, Greece, Italy and the UK, and aims to expose the widening gap between the richest 1% of of people who are writing the rules of the global economy and imposing an agenda of neoliberalism and economic inequality.
