Al Jazeera English presents- History of the Occupy Movement


Hello,

I would like to share with you the first episode of this season’s Fault Lines, Al Jazeera English‘s award-winning U.S. current affairs show.
 

In the first of a two part series, Fault Lines tells the definitive history of Occupy Wall Street, looking at how it went from a small group of New York protesters to a broad people’s movement. Despite police repression and media ridicule, the movement mobilized thousands of people fed up with the deep economic divide in the US. Within two months hundreds of Occupy Wall Street camps swept across the country changing the political discourse in the US.
