OccupyAuckland sets up in Aotea Square

We at Organic Design fully support the Occupy Movement and after attending the Auckland march and gathering today we were extremely impressed by the organisation and structure the movement has achieved. The general assembly process succeeded admirably in organising the two thousand attendees into system of direct democracy which began the process of channelling the expertise and ideas of many people into comprehensive action.

Before I had attended I had little faith in the Occupy movement, believing that while it was good to see that so many people are awakening to the truth of our failing capitalist system, there would be no answers found in "milling about" waiting for the elite to listen to us and "fix things somehow". But after seeing the Occupy Movement in action today, I feel incredibly optimistic, and feel that this movement really could be the start of a new system being built from the bottom up, by the people, for the people!

It's not too late to join in, there are people camping out in all of the thousands of Occupy sites around the world. Head down and see what's going on in your local region, ask questions or offer your incites. Get more information at the OccupyAuckland official site and from the general Occupy Movement site.
