Here's a video of an Occupy action at UC Davis that you might find interesting:

Worth watching all the way through, and reading the article as well.

I've been watching the Occupy stuff, but it seems to widespread that there hasn't been much point covering it in my journal.

It's been great to see a resurgence of civil disobedience and community on the left. I hope it can help swing the center back in that direction again.

When I left that comment I hadn't seen how viral the video already was at that point. You're right, I think it's getting enough play on its own.
