Some of the reasons I support the Occupy Movement



This was the lecture that I went over to Berkley to hear Marianne Williamson speak at Unity Church of Berkley.
She had been invited up to help with #OccupyOakland and the entire Movement.
She is one my Spiritual Guides who also helped introduce "A Course In Miracles" to me as a young man back in West Hollywood.



Some folks who don't understand what this Movement is about, or who may get false information via a couple of various 24/7 News Agencies.
Occupy does have a clear goal.
Occupy isn't out to rid this Country of Capitalism, we just want regulation.
We want a return to a growing, thriving Middle Class, we're not asking for a handout.
But we need pull in the reins of Wall Street and those there who are raping this Country and the Middle Class including the Working Class.
I don't even need to talk about the Poor in this Country, who now suffer the worse economic reality since 1929.



Occupy isn't filled with folks who don't want to work, quite the opposite.
Most Occupy Supporters I know have a job, OR are eagerly seeking employment in this Bad Economy.
Take a look at the Photos I took at Unity Church , where Marianne came up from LA to speak, and You will see Normal People,
from various walks of life, but not the types being described by folks who don't know,
certainly not those 24/7 Propaganda News Stations.






Marianne does a lot of speaking up on Social Issues, and is in support of the Occupy Movement, in LA, NYC, Oakland, SF, everywhere.
As She says, We are the Guardians of our Democracy, but above all else, Keep it Peaceful, with Love on your side.
Demonstrate YOUR Love. 



Marianne Williamson also started up the Project Open Hand in LA for Patients living with HIV and/or AIDS.

She's certainly worth a listen, it's an Hour, but it might just be so invigorating for your soul, and perhaps an education on what is this "Occupy Movement" wants, and  what it is to strive for.
