On September 17, 2011, people from all across the United States of America and the world came to protest the blatant injustices perpetuated by the 1% – the economic and political elites – whose actions affect all of us, the 99%.
We spoke out, resisted, and successfully occupied Wall Street. Today, we proudly remain engaged in non-violent civil disobedience while building solidarity based on mutual respect, acceptance, and love.
We are the 99% and we have assumed full responsibility for the future of our society, our culture, and most importantly, our own lives. – From the NYC General Assembly
Occupy Chapel Hill has been Occupying since October 15th 2011. On Tuesday, January 10, 2012, Occupy Chapel Hill/Carrboro made history by becoming one of the very few, longstanding Occupy encampments in the country to peacefully and voluntarily transition to a new phase in its evolution. Occupy 2.0
