Profiles in Protest – Occupy Seattle

Here’s a short video of some of the people I met at the Westlake Park protest this past week.  Candid and well-spoken, each of them had good reasons for making their voice heard and for exercising their First Amendment rights.

OCCUPY SEATTLE Protest This Sunday

Had some time to visit the Occupy Seattle protests today.  Took a few pictures and a video or two and got the chance to meet a few of the protesters.  It was interesting to see how the speakers communicated without bullhorns: the people in the crowd shouted out what was said so that those standing farther back could hear.  Lots of cool signs.  Wish I was able to meet with more people, but I ran out of time.
