Last July I published my first diary, advocating for a Labor Day march on Washington. With the jobs situation being what it was (and is), I didn't see any other way to get the public attention the situation required. Didn't get much response, and I too went back to feeling hopeless about it all.
But now it's happening all over the country (big smile). Those of us who can't physically participate need to support those who can. Being old enough to remember the protests of the 60s, the fact is that most people, even most young people, did not protest themselves, but the public at large came to support the protesters and their messages just the same.
So let's support OWS where we can. Winter is coming and they'll need help and supplies.
