  1. Oh, nope. Stairs: "We're going to the park NOW!" YAY, everyone cheers. #NYCGA #OWS
  2. Stairs: "We've been told there's a large grp at Zuccotti Park." Asks that we break out in groups, then come back and see if we want to move.
  3. That's it for CQ stack, so we'll break out. GA is very large due to warm weather and day of action today; that's tough dynamic indoors.
  4. Guy gets up to try to make a statement. "Direct action is noncompliance." Money not required, otherwise are legitimizing the state. #NYCGA
  5. Cont'd: "But the whole point is that we redirect the conversation towards action, which is what we came here for." #NYCGA #OWS
  6. A: "That's a really, really, really good question. I put together the most basic proposal, so we could modify it together." #NYCGA #OWS
  7. He feels strongly that we need to help ppl eat. "What fundraising is going to be done between tonight and tomorrow to raise $ for food?"
  8. He notes a lot of Occupiers are spanging for money, "which doesn't always work all that well." Otherwise, art, or whatever they can find.
  9. Cont'd: "What happens when ppl need to be fed tomorrow? Occupiers who are going to go hungry tomorrow instead of spending # for 3 wks?"
  10. Next CQ: "I think you raise a lot of valid points, Haywood, but let's just say on a whim, hell freezes over tonight and this passes."
  11. Cont'd: "…why you're doing what you're doing." #NYCGA #OWS
  12. Sage says he wntd to block, is mad he missed chance. OK, that's it for the GA; other proposals tabled. Thanks fam; have a good night. #NYCGA
  13. OK, moving to consensus. "Do we have any standasides?" No. "Do we have any blocks?" No. "We have consensus!" #NYCGA #OWS
  14. A: "Yes, this needs to continue." Says the action is just the beginning. Amendment declined b/c it's already in there. #NYCGA #OWS
  15. So, her amendment is to work with other groups to ensure a continuation of effort against oppression of movements. #NYCGA #OWS
  16. Cont'd: "...other 2, that #Occupy is a continuation of other movements and there are and will be other movements after." #NYCGA #OWS
  17. OK, that's it for concerns; now opening up friendly amendment stack. Camille's FA: "I share the same kinds of ideological concerns as the.."
  18. Concern...ish: "As long as you're keeping w/ best principles of movement and are non-violent, then I support it." #NYCGA #OWS
  19. Cont'd; "...non-violent movement." A: "That's in the proposal." Also, it's #OWS in solidarity w/ #Occupy mvmnt. #NYCGA #OWS
  20. Cont'd: "...attached to just #Occupy, which goes through all occupations. Secondly, this must be known that this will be a..." #NYCGA #OWS
