| <nettime-ann> First the Arab Spring, then an American Fall |
. Nearly 20 "occupy" protests across the US were planned today through various online social networks. A good accounting of them is here: http://occupytogether.org/ "Welcome to OCCUPY TOGETHER, a hub for all of the events springing up across the country in solidarity with Occupy Wall St. As we have followed the news on facebook, twitter, and the various live feeds across the internet, we felt compelled to build a site that would help spread the word as more protests organize across the country. We hope to provide people with information about events that are organizing, ongoing, and building across the U.S. as we, the 99%, take action against the greed and corruption of the 1%."
