Some of our current projects include a staffing company, a free college, aid and promotion of local small businesses, direct action to fight unwarranted foreclosure, prevention of fracking and injection well disposal, and more. Why Do We Occupy:
We are sick of a money-controlled government. We are tired of a broken system wherein only the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. This is not a free country anymore. We are getting closer and closer to becoming a police state. The government has lost its way. The government is no longer For the people, By the people; it has become For the Money, By the Rich. We are here to protest this. The people in power on both sides of the aisle do what they can to dis-empower us. Today we will show them that we are not as powerless as they expect us to be. We have risen. We have numbers. We are 99% of the American population. We are the ones left behind. To work. To struggle. To fight and die in their petty material and money- fueled wars. We will take this no more. We will follow suit with our brothers and sisters around the United States of America and across Earth and peacefully rise up and protest. What do we want? What do we expect to come out of this? We stand for a civil unification against the individuals who have corrupted this government. Some people have said that we are forming a new way of thinking for this government. This is our chance to show Wall Street and our government that we do have a voice and it’s louder than the money changers'. We may not have another chance like this to change our government for the better. Join us. Make your voice heard.

via Burning River Brigade, "SCHEDULE CHANGED! Doors now open at 3:30, the program starts at 5:30, and Trump speaks at 7. Protesters should start gathering around 3:00 PM instead of 2:00 PM.
"Trump's lurching into the Covelli Centre this Monday, October 12, for a "midterm rally," with Senator Jon Husted expected to tag along again.
Last time Trump came to Youngstown, in 2017, he told the crowd the jobs were all coming back. "Don't move. Don't sell your house." Less than two years later, GM shut down Lordstown. The Valley remembers. Pepperidge Farm remembers.
[...] " Trump isn't on the ballot in November, but Trumpism sure is. Early voting in Ohio is open now through November 1st. Vote early and in person if you can, and bring a friend or family member. The sooner the better, because anything can happen: illness, car trouble, a family emergency, or this administration pulling a fast one on DEMOCRACY.

[...] "It's Peoples' Day (Columbus Day), so a lot of folks have the day off. If that's you, bring a sign and bring a friend. Bring water, stay on the sidewalk, and expect the Secret Service to keep you at a distance. So far, nobody's been pushed far back. Downtown parking will be tight, so get there early, don't block anyone's driveway, and keep an eye on the City of YOUngstown's website for parking advisories.
First time protesting? ACLUOhio/ ACLU has a know-your-rights guide worth reading before you go."

We rock at 3PM on the front line
Like a bolt right out of the blue
The sky's alight with a guitar bite
Heads will roll and rock tonight

SCHEDULE CHANGED! Doors now open at 3:30, the program starts at 5:30, and Trump speaks at 7. Protesters should start gathering around 3:00 PM instead of 2:00 PM.

Trump's lurching into the Covelli Centre this Monday, October 12, for a "midterm rally," with Senator Jon Husted expected to tag along again.

Last time Trump came to Youngstown, in 2017, he told the crowd the jobs were all coming back. "Don't move. Don't sell your house." Less than two years later, GM shut down Lordstown. The Valley remembers. Burning River Brigade remembers. Pepperidge Farm remembers.

His approval sucks harder than a conservative man with orange on his lips, and Republican politicians who can read a poll are keeping their distance. Husted keeps showing up anyway. What a loser.

It's Indigenous Peoples' Day (Columbus Day), so a lot of folks have the day off. If that's you, bring a sign and bring a friend. Bring water, stay on the sidewalk, and expect the Secret Service to keep you at a distance. So far, nobody's been pushed far back. Downtown parking will be tight, so get there early, don't block anyone's driveway, and keep an eye on the City of Youngstown's website for parking advisories. First time protesting? ACLU of Ohio has a know-your-rights guide worth reading before you go.

Peaceful protesters only. If you're coming to start trouble, stay tf away from us.

Fun fact: a "free" rally ticket comes with a lifetime subscription to fundraising texts from Trump's committee, the RNC, and nearly every state GOP. That's what burner emails and free VoIP numbers are for.

Trump isn't on the ballot in November, but Trumpism sure is. Early voting in Ohio is open now through November 1st. Vote early and in person if you can, and bring a friend or family member. The sooner the better, because anything can happen: illness, car trouble, a family emergency, or this administration pulling a fast one on DEMOCRACY.

For those about to protest, we salute you. 🤘
