Hi All,
Occupy Long Beach is growing. People calling,
showing up, emailing "when is next meeting?/what
can I do to help?"/ "I'm behind you."
We did have one speaker on open mike at the City
Council tonight. Tammara Phillips' personal
story of loss because of this horrible economic
downturn was heart wrenching. This brought her to
this movement. She relayed to the Council that
Occupy LB regards itself as "the 99
percenters," that is we represent the dispair
and frustration of the 99 percent in our country
who are powerless and fed up. She relayed our
request that the Council help us. We will be posting her speech.
Try to watch the televised Council
session. Council members Schipske and Garcia and
Vice Mayor Lowenthal and Mayor Foster spoke.
Tomorrow we are back to Bluff Park. Join us.
