This caught my eye the other day... We are not only occupying street corners, county buildings, UC lawns, but also labels on alcohol bottles.As many Occupy movements are getting shut down by local governments, people are finding new ways to "Occupy" and take a stand against inequality. While the protests are being stopped by law enforcement, the right to free speech is still intact. Hundreds of bloggers, including many of our own SF Literature students are writing about the Occupy movements. With this bottle of Absolut SF, the people who don't read the news, blogs, or travel by the courthouse to see the tent city are encouraged to take a stand and speak up.
We are living in a momentous time-- the Occupy movements have set forth many other protests as well, like the protest of the UC regents and European countries' protests against budget cuts.
