Evolvers will be out in force this weekend to support the Occupy Wall Street movement.  On Friday, the 14th, meet at the tall, red steel structure (the name of which, incidentally, is "Joie de Vivre") near the entrance of Zuccoti Park at 4:30 PM for a talk by 2012 author and RS co-founder, Daniel Pinchbeck entitled,  "What Comes After Money?: Transforming Society by Creating the Alternative".  Daniel is scheduled to speak until 5:15.

This Saturday, join dozens of community groups, unions, student organizations and lots and lots of regular folk who are taking to the streets in a mass protest that will culminate in Times Square at 5pm and then move (by train party!) downtown.

~ Bring ~
Yourself and Others Like You, Music, Noisemakers,
and useful gifts for the Wall St. occupiers.

~ Wear ~
White. As dramatic as possible. In many cultures dressing in white is a symbol of hope and transition. Think: white suits, dresses, face-paint, glitter, balloons, banners, be inspired.

~ The Moment ~
At sunset there will be a moment that will light the night (safe / legal and participatory.)

Information on the October 15th Times Square take-over is here:

We are also looking for performers, music makers and anyone interested in helping make it happen.  If you, or folks you know what to participate go to:

"What Comes After Money?", the book is now available from North Atlantic Books.

"Indignation" comes from "Dignity"

I wish we will be many on 15th October, to celebrate the sacred right to feel the indignation, which is the proof that we are really alive, and that we have dignity.

Always forward. Never straight. Will Mr. Pinchbeck's speech be available to view or read for those of us that unfortunately can't be there? I'm very interested to hear what he'll have to say!

Puerta del Sol Square (Madrid), 22:00 hs.,15th October, 2011:

"They feed us with hate, and if somebody disagrees, they buy him, or they silence him. Mates, this is not a economic or financial crisis. It's a crisis of consciousness. I'm talking to you because you know about touching the fear. I ask you not to leave", says the policeman JAvier Roca. "All of us can change something. Let's begin with ourselves. I'm not crazy and I know it's going to be worth it", he ends. People applauds.

500.000 indignados, according to the organisation/46.000, according to the newspaper "El País"...either way, the video is clear about the big number of participants in this noetic, ecstatic jump of collective consciousness...:
