Author and Wall Street Occupier Nathan Schneider on the Movement's True Power
"An apocalypse changes us irrevocably. We see something that, after recognizing it, won't let us go on with life as before.
I saw this happen for so many people through the Occupy movement. They saw the depth of injustice - economic, racial, political - in US society more than they ever had before.
They experienced a lot of violence at the hands of the police.
And most importantly, they had a revelation about their capacity to transform politics from the ground up through resistance."
