OCCUPY DEMOCRACY - 17th - 26th OCT

OCCUPY DEMOCRACY - 17th - 26th OCT - FRACKING - YouTube



Recorded whilst camping with the Nanas and considering the 3rd anniversary of Occupy London as it approaches and we face so many challenges and threats:

people didn't know that it was broken until they had to call on it for help ..
and suddenly when you call on it for help, you realise it's a façade

Make time to be outraged.
