Purpose
Our Dreams Don’t Fit in Their Ballot Boxes!
- No to austerity! Yes to reclaiming our communities!
Occupy Portland and Portland Action Lab invite all people to participate in a national call to action to say NO! to Austerity and YES! to building our collective power. Business and our governments hoard wealth, privatize our communities, and burden us with enormous debt. This is AUSTERITY and we say Enough is Enough!
On November 2nd and 3rd (N3) we will mobilize and march, voting with our feet by taking direct action to interrupt the normal course of business. Our power is in our neighborhoods, building alternatives, and taking to the streets!
We call on all participants in the Occupy movement, rank-and-file union members, students, our elders and people-at-large to organize creatively and return to our public spaces with this message on the weekend before the election. Our communities will make our own decisions and control our own resources, no matter who is elected.
We are not alone; austerity is a consequence of a failed economic system and people around the world are rising up. We act in solidarity and take inspiration from the peoples of Greece, Spain, Italy, France, Portugal, Iceland, Ireland, South Africa, Quebec, Chile, and beyond[1] who are fighting austerity and the destruction of their communities.
Solidarity against Austerity!
