Roundtable: After 1 Year, OWS Gives Voice to Resistance of Mass Debt and Widening Inequality

Democracy Now 

The Occupy Wall Street movement is largely credited for reframing the national dialogue on economic inequality and popularizing the phrase: "We are the 99 percent." We host a roundtable with Frances Fox Piven, an author and professor at City University of New York who has studied social movements for decades; Nathan Schneider, editor of the blog Waging Nonviolence, which has extensively covered the Occupy movement; and Suzanne Collado, an organizer with Occupy Wall Street since its inception and member of the group "Strike Debt," an effort to organize a mass upsurge of debt resistance.
