From Occupations to Victories

The end of the year is naturally a time to reflect, and 2011 has provided all of us in the US with much to ponder. As a movement we often focus on where we might have fallen short, but at the heart of this issue of the Newsletter are a few of our victories—and how victories come in different shapes and sizes. What is ahead is unwritten, but what we do know is that the remarkable series of “Occupy” gatherings has captivated the world. In the words of one of our founders, Noam Chomsky, "If the bonds and associations that are being established at these remarkable events can be sustained through a long, hard period ahead because victories don’t come quickly—this could turn out to be a very significant moment in American history.” Read about our grantees building the bonds and making history in our latest issue of the Newsletter.
