Means of connectivity[edit] Occupy Wall Street. Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is the name given to a protest movement that began on September 17, 2011, in Zuccotti Park, located in New York City's Wall Street financial district. The Canadian, anti-consumerist, pro-environment group/magazine, Adbusters initiated the call for a protest. The ensuing series of events helped lead to media awareness that inspired Occupy protests and movements around the world. In awarding Workhouse its Platinum Award, industry publication PRNews noted "The results, obviously, have been spectacular. There’s hardly a newspaper, Internet or broadcast media outlet that hasn’t covered OWS The protesters were forced out of Zuccotti Park on November 15, 2011. On December 29, 2012, Naomi Wolf of The Guardian newspaper provided U.S. government documents which revealed that the FBI and DHS had monitored Occupy Wall Street through its Joint Terrorism Task Force, despite labelling it a peaceful movement.[9] Origins[edit] Overview[edit] "We are the 99%"[edit] Goals[edit]

Coordinates: Dale Farm is a plot of land on Oak Lane in Crays Hill, Essex, United Kingdom. In October 2011, a clearance order was executed at Dale Farm after ten years of legal contention. To give contracted bailiffs safe access, some residents and activists had to be removed by police from the Dale Farm site – this action gained international press coverage. At its height, Dale Farm, along with the adjacent Oak Lane site, housed over 1,000 people, the largest Traveller concentration in the UK.[3] Dale Farm[edit] Dale Farm is a six acre plot of land on Oak Lane, near the A127 Southend Arterial road. Dale Farm cottage was leased to Ray Bocking, a scrap metal dealer in the early 1960s.
As a site for Travellers, Dale Farm was started in the 1980s when a planning appeal was won by two families against Basildon District Council on the southern end of the site, with the help of a professor of land management, Robert Home. At this time unplanned development started. The Dale Farm Travellers[edit] Update from dale farm: a legal observer writes. On Saturday 29th October I returned to Dale Farm as one of a small team of legal observers, writes legal observer Susannah Mengesha. There’s an ever-growing list of required safety wear for observers – hard hats, high vis wear, steel toe capped boots which residents and guests don’t have to wear – as well as increasing demands upon them to provide personal information that we’re under absolutely no obligation to give.
Anyhow, since the previous week much of the inside of the Dale Farm main site had become one giant unrecognisable demolition area with much of the site having been razed to the ground. Diggers were a constant presence throughout the day. Dug up hardstanding, rather than being removed, was slowly being dumped to form a large barrier stretching around the proximity of the site. Life appears to be becoming increasingly challenging for the remaining families of Dale Farm.
