Occupy Wall Street

The Occupy Wall Street movement is a protest movement that started in Zuccotti Park in New York City on September 17, 2011. The Occupy Wall Street protesters are voicing their opinions about greed, economic inequality and corruption financially. I do believe the Occupy Wall Street movement fits the definition of Civil Disobedience because protesters are allowed the right to peacefully protest and they are voicing their concerns over the current situation in the economy. In New York City, protesters have voiced their opinions of them being the "99%" and are very persistent when it comes to protesting in parks. Although they may get kicked out of parks they always are determined to keep going and nothing detours them from their goal of being heard.
