The Occupy Wall Street movement named the core issue of
our time: the overwhelming power of Wall Street and large
corporations- something the political establishment and
most media have long ignored.
But the movement goes far beyond this critique. This
Changes Everything shows how the movement is shifting the
way people view themselves and the world, the kind of
society they believe is possible, and their own
involvement in creating a society that works for the 99%
rather than just the 1%.
Attempts to pigeonhole this decentralized, fast-evolving
movement have led to confusion and misperception. In this
volume, the editors of YES! Magazine bring together
voices from inside and outside the protests to convey the
issues, possibilities, and personalities associated with
the Occupy Wall Street movement.
