BBC that she participated in a conference call with officials from 18 cities about how to deal with the Occupy movement.As police forces violently crack down on protests across the United States and Europe, we look at the increasing influence of military technology on domestic police forces. Stephen Graham is professor of Cities and Society at Newcastle University in the U.K. His book is “Cities Under Siege: The New Military Urbanism.” “What the Occupy movement is so powerful at is demonstrating that by occupying public spaces around the world, and particularly these extremely symbolic public spaces, it’s reasserting that the city is the foundation space for democracy,” Graham says.

Police in New York have launched a pre-dawn operation to clear the Occupy Wall Street camp in Zuccotti Park.
The city mayor’s office said on Twitter that the protesters should “temporarily leave and remove tents and tarps” but could return once the park was clear.
Occupy Wall Street was set up in September to protests against economic inequality and had been followed by dozens of protests around the world.
A camp in Oakland, California was cleared overnight on Monday.
The New York Times said that as the operation in Zuccotti Park began at about 01:00 (06:00 GMT), police gave an announcement, saying: “The city has determined that the continued occupation of Zuccotti Park poses an increasing health and fire safety hazard.”
Leaflets were also handed out saying protesters would be allowed to return once the clearance had taken place, but not to bring camping equipment.
This means NO CAMPING and its impossible to stay on the NY streets in winter with no protection
The Eviction is similar to what happened in Barcelona 3 months ago when the Occupy Camp was cleared by brutal police by surprise at night, with the excuse of ‘cleaning’. On that occasion thousands of people took back the square the same day, and videos of police violence caused a surge in popular support.

The route will take the march from its starting point on Malet Street, through Trafalgar Square and up the Strand, before passing St Pauls’s and rallying at Moorgate Junction.

Why have we OCCUPIED a bank?
These are the ultimate expression of capitalism, one of the clearest signals that may be taking profits from the suffering of the majority of the population
Every day, in Spain there are approximately 300 evictions, where banks tend to be those responsible for the evictions of families for non-payment of mortgages. In Barcelona there are thousands of people homeless or living in extreme poverty. On the other hand, just in our neighborhood there are 800 empty flats, and as many other sites continues beyond the residents in the neighborhood.
Per què hem ocupat un banc?
Aquests són la màxima expressió del capitalisme, sent una de les senyals més evidents el fet que puguin estar traient beneficis del patiment de la majoria de la població. Cada dia a l’Estat espanyol hi ha aproximadament uns 300 desnonaments, on els bancs acostumen a ser els responsables dels desnonaments de les famílies per impagament de les hipoteques. A Barcelona hi ha milers de persones sense casa o vivint en extrema pobresa. Com a contrapartida, només en el nostre barri hi ha uns 800 pisos buits, i com a tants altres llocs es segueix fent fora els veïns i veïnes del barri.
What are we doing?
Gradually the activities and workshops are being made (kind of guitar, vegan eatery, etc.). Or are being started (salsa classes, Jiu-Jitsu, etc..), Many people have passed to fix the space or bring things that could be used (tables, food, books, etc.).. Come and find out what equipment is needed, what activities are being organised or simply to collaborate with the project in the bank and drop a question.
Què estem fent?
Poc a poc són més les activitats i tallers que s’estan realitzant (classe de guitarra, sopadors, etc.) o que estan en procés de començar (classes de salsa, jiu-jitsu, etc.), com molta és la gent que s’ha passat a arreglar l’espai o a portar coses que poguessin servir (taules, menjar, llibres, etc.). Si vols saber què material fa falta, quines activitats s’estan fent o simplement per col·laborar amb el projecte passa’t pel banc i pregunta.
