Occupy movements plan to shut down major ports along the US West Coast and Canada’s Pacific seaboard in a day of action next month, they said. In an announcement hours after a two-month old anti-Wall Street protest camp was evicted in Los Angeles, they said they plan to strike back against the “nationally coordinated attack on the Occupy movement.” Local Occupy movements in San Diego, LA, Oakland, Portland, Tacoma, Seattle will support the December 12 day of action, they said.
“We are also striking back against the nationally coordinated attack on the Occupy movement. In response to the police violence and camp evictions against the Occupy movement, this is our coordinated response against the 1 percent. “On December 12th we will show are collective power through pinpointed economic blockade of the 1%,” she added.
