Off the web and into the streets!
The mission of occupywallstreet.net is to inspire people to turn the web into a network that fills the streets.

Who the Hell Are We?
We aim to be an accountable website for the Occupy Movement. That means that we are an open group of unpaid individuals who operate according to modified consensus. We are not affiliated with any political party. Our web hosting is donated.
