We are the 99% and have no specific leaders. This is a diverse group with different beliefs and interests but we are all one and the same. The system pushes us to give up, but this movement will eventually become too big to fail.

OCCUPY PORTLAND
PRESENTS THE 99%
IS DIVERSE AND UNITED
THIS TIME WE WON'T LET THEM DIVIDE US
THIS TIME WE WILL BE TOGETHER AND STRONGER THAN EVER
EXPECT US
Location: Waterfront park at SW Salmon st and SW Naito Pkwy
Time: We’ll gather at 12:00 pm and we’ll march at 2:00 pm.


Just 1% of the population has control over the 99% and we will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption. The rich minority tries to speak for us and as Stephen Colbert says,
Here are some things we are going to be marching for:
• A better quality of life
• 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. No matter the social class, race, skin color, immigration status, age, sexual orientation, disability we are all human and we have the same rights
• 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

The 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees “the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."


It has to start somewhere with somebody, so united we stand or together we fall.
