POWER IN UNITY

We are workers. We are black. We are straight. We are Hispanic. We are men. We are gay. We are rich. We are women. We are unemployed. We are Middle Eastern. We are poor. We are white. We are students. We are people of faith. We are struggling. We are active. We are Asian. We are atheists. We are everything in between. We are many.

WE ARE THE 99% and WE ARE UNITED
Against the greed of Wall Street that has
  • Damaged our economy,
  • Destroyed our jobs,
  • Forced foreclosure on our homes,
  • Polluted our environment
  • Corrupted our democracy.
Here are some things we are fighting for
  • A better quality of life
  • Against economic inequality and exploitation of working people especially minorities
  • Health care for all
  • Education reform and make the higher education accessible for all
  • Distribute the world's wealth equally with all
  • Put an end to wars and stop killing innocent people
  • Stop once and for all, the divisions and any discrimination among people.
  • Protect the environment of our planet in a more strict way because it is the only one we have and is dying.
  • Create jobs in the country and stop sending them to other places
  • To have more benefits in the jobs and with better conditions
