“Our environmental crisis [has] roots seeded in Wall Street’s influence on our economy and in Washington.”
By TIM HERRERA, AMNY.com
As Occupy Wall Street marks its one-year anniversary today with rallies and yet another “comeback” around town, the group faces familiar headlines about mass arrests and questions about its mission.
Over the weekend, at least 40 protesters were arrested as OWS returned from its slumber to commemorate its first rallies at Zuccotti Park last year. Its three-day schedule culminates in an occupation of the New York Stock Exchange today. (The National Lawyers Guild, which represents many of the arrested, said at least 50 were cuffed.)
Organizers hope today will give OWS yet another shot at national relevance.
