Affinity groups — self-sufficient support systems of about 5 to 15 people — form the basic decision-making bodies of mass actions. To participate in a civil disobedience action, either form an affinity group or join an existing one. Check out this information on the what, why, and how to create an affinity group.
Here is a list of Affinity Groups participating in the January 20, 2012, Occupy Wall St. West action.
Note: You can click on a column label at the top of the list to sort the list by the entries in that column.

8:00 AM – Oakland Federal Courthouse on Clay St., between 13th/14th Streets – http://occupyoaklandcourts.org/
Powerfully Peaceful Protest on the eve of the 2nd anniversary of “Citizens United v the Federal Election Commission” when 5 unelected Supreme Court justices overruled 99% of We the People for government of, by and for the corporatocracy.
8:00 AM – Oakland Federal Courthouse on Clay St., between 13th/14th Streets – http://occupyoaklandcourts.org/
Then, 11:45 march from SF Civic Center BART to San Francisco 9th District Court of Appeals, 7th Street at Mission – http://www.occupywallstwest.org/wordpress/?cat=12
Bring signs and as many friends as possible, please, and fwd this.
Changing the laws that gave corporations so much power is key to most of what we need to create a healthy, sustainable, just world. Ending corporate rule is THE root issue of our era!
Occupy the Courts with us nationwide with over 100 locations on Fri Jan. 20! – http://movetoamend.org/occupythecourts
As 99% of you know, the corporatocracy was flourishing before Citizens United v FEC and already committing ecocide. “CU” put secret corporate election spending on steroids. Only a constitutional amendment for separation of corporation and state can reverse the egregious Supreme Court rulings that put our democracy up for sale.
We need a constitutional amendment that establishes BOTH that money is not speech
AND that a corporation is not a natural person and not entitled to constitutional rights.
Where is something happening in Chicago? Thanx.
