STRENGTH IN DIVERSITY

POWER IN UNITY We are workers. We are black. We are straight. We are Hispanic. We are men. We are White. We are gay. We are rich. We are women. We are unemployed. We are Middle Eastern. We are poor. We are white. We are students. We are people of faith. We are struggling. We are active. We are Asian. We are atheists.

We are everything in between. We are many.

WE ARE THE 99% and WE ARE UNITED against the greed of Wall Street that has damaged our economy, destroyed our jobs, forced foreclosure on our homes, polluted our environment and corrupted our democracy.

DIVERSITY MARCH in support of education, health care and job opportunities for all in support of justice and financial reform
