Occupy Freedom Plaza tomorrow in Washington DC (2+ / 0-)
If there is anyone among you, who will be there early in the morning and has a good sign and something to say into a camera ? Look out for the German camera team (NDR, WDR, ZDF microphone caps). They will be out there at 8:30 am and that is very early. Would be nice to get good soundbites ...

From Kossack on the ground at Occupy Wall Street, comes a request for help - someone to help pull together a digest of meeting minutes and tons of people to translate. Check out his diary for more info!
From Chris Bower - please help build the list of Facebook Pages for OccupytheUS. His diary from yesterday has all the links collected so far. Leave a comment if you have another to add! UDATED DIARY with more than 200 Links!
Charlie Grapski is reconstructing the 9/24 March and could use your help! Please offer your research services.
After reading the General Assembly minutes of last night, it is clear that they desperately need sleeping bags and/or blankets. Winter is on the way and they plan on occupying for a while. One of the occupiers also suggested last night on livestream that yoga mats would make a good donation. Cash is great but currently they are having a hard time deciding the BEST way to use the cash money. Send donations to the address above.
UPDATE - Virtual Clothing Drive on DailyKos! thanks, mdmslle!

Outside Reading and Viewing:
First person perpsective in this outside blog was recommended to us by Stolen Water. This is a very important addition as it is written by a woman of color. Most first person accounts I have read so far have been by white men.
Well-written article by the Guardian about arrests on the bridge. Thanks evergreen2!

Countdown:
Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary at Zuccotti Park yesterday:
1:26 PM PT: Have to leave to go to the gym... too much time in front of a computer is not good for anybody. If you guys could help keep this on the rec list, that would be great! I will update when I get back in a couple of hours.
6:19 PM PT: Finally back - gym, algebra homework, and fed the family :) I will post links to diaries published up to now and then see you guys in the morning. Sometimes it's rough being on an Argentine schedule with the rest of you hours later!
6:44 PM PT: Officially off to bed - any OWS editor who wants to add diaries from this evening, please feel free!
