Carlos QC's video: First week Occupy Wall Street in NYC

A growing revolution is growing in the streets of New York. I had to come and witness it. Thousands of U.S. citizens and allies are protesting since last September 17th in New York City against the current U.S. economic and political systems which promote corruption, inequality, war, abuse of the wealthy elites and the impoverishment of the majority. This past weekend I traveled to New York because I wanted to witness the ongoing and growing movement of civil disobedience happening in that city titled "Occupy Wall Street". I was curious about this protest since it is one of very few times in U.S. history, where the people of this country stand up in civil disobedience against the current corrupted economic and political system governing us. Nearly a hundred protesters have been arrested and then released by the New York Police who have used violent methods including pepper gas and tassers to arrest the activists, mostly young people. I recorded this video, this is what I saw last Saturday September 24th, 2011. I got the chance to interview some of the activists involved: To learn more about this growing social movement: https://occupywallst.org/
