Alright you redeemers, rebels and radicals out there,
Take Two.
Ten years after Occupy Wall Street one thing has become painfully clear: the people in charge of our global system have run it aground.
Ecosystems are crashing, financial markets teetering, climate wars breaking out. Suddenly humanity is in a Code-Red Emergency and our world leaders haven’t got a clue about how to get us out of it.
It’s time for another global uprising — OWS 2.0.
But this one will be a little different. Instead of marching in the streets and commandeering parks, we’re calling for a Worldwide General Strike — A Day of Rage Against World Leaders.
On September 17th, everything simply … stops.
There’s also the part about “kids” not going to school, and, in contrast, “parents” not going to work. Subttly implying workers are parents and vice-versa.
