Looking Back: Occupy Wall Street

Occupy Wall Street, as a public movement, began on September 14, 2011. For eight months, those involved struggled to become a legitimate, anti-government voice in the United States of America. On May 1, 2012, after a winter spent fighting what seemed like a losing battle, the OWS movement experienced a rebirth. Since then, the determination and perseverance of the protestors has continued to make an impact. People all over the world have stood in solidarity in the face of oppression, made stronger because of OWS and its successes.
