Love in Action: Occupy Spoken Word Piece with Drew Dellinger

[AdonisKingAXC]

YES IT IS LOVE! BE THE LOVE! join us over at freedominfonetwork (org) .. PEACE! ~a~

[asynkronos]

Love your video! The 1% thought we'd go away when they set their corporate media dogs on us. They don't know us. As a former Vietnam POW told me in DC, living in a hole for months made him re-examine his beliefs. Many occupiers have lived in holes of one kind or another. The survival of our species depends on loving one another and the earth and preserving biodiversity. Greed and indifference to suffering make for poor stewardship. The 1% are fooling themselves, not Mother Nature.

[KazarianKzar]

Hope to meet you some day, Drew. Would love to go out for a beer and talk global change.

[rimbaud108]

I heard Drew do this poem at #OccupySF - brilliant.

go vegan and create a more compassionate less selfish world by being more compassionate and less selfish by simply giving up the cruel diet they feed us

[Zuroq]

"occupy the divine mind residing inside.." so the occupy movement are with the new age movement

[mythmanjay]

HYPOCRISY: Good Message, but can't you say it WHILE you're doing some WORK? No? .... hmmm; maybe you COULD if you were of the 1%; they must deserve all that money SOMEhow! In the meantime, work quietly and TRUST that your reward will come when it's time.

Can we create a health system that heals, an educational system that inspires and honors that spark in every human - that links each child to a viable future with dignity? Can we build an economic system that supports meaningful work for every human to contribute with meaning? Can our metro regions be places of vibrant multi-racial justice & sustainable Earth community in shared Life? We are putting our shoulder to the wheel on this and welcome your collaboration. BreakthroughCommunities.info.

[BreakthruCommunities]

Thanks for your brave heart and spirit Drew, at Breakthrough Communities we want to work with you. As a social movement (Occupy), we are gaining clarity on what we are saying NO to, and the struggle seems to be what can we say YES to. How do we move from the first step of dissent and withdrawal of consent in an unjust system...to the next steps of preparing to govern? How do we overcome our fragmentation to create a unified agenda that can give direction and leadership?

[tiberio135]

The 99% is basically a movement of people protesting a system of illegality, immorality and fraud. Ofwhich THEY WERE willing COMPLICIT, ENABLERS &SUPPORTERS FOR DECADES. But now, unemployed, broke and hungry THEY DON'T LIKE IT. When US looting was good in developing countries and that transfer of wealth clearly showered US society thru their corporations and finance system, these HYPOCRITES did not complain. Quite the contrary. They cheered capitalism. Hard times 99%???

Serves u right

[platipot]

Every revolution had it's poets.

They gave a beauty and "soul" to the revolutions. And when revolutioneries would put others and each others agaist the wsall to shot them dead - they all could recite beautiful poetry

CUNTS!

[MsRosarela]

Nice.

I suggest next time also team up with a female word artists.....the occupy movement needs to see some gender diversity in terms of leaders, key artists etc. Where are the women at the centre stage?

[wvurox]

This is beautiful!! Thank you, Drew! Embrace humanity! Turn your backs to the systems!

[thetempleofsound]

YES! well said

[rkrite]

The content owner has not made this video available on mobile. WTF

[SoulJuiceTV]

inspiring & encouraging .... THANKYOU <3

[lakshmikerner]

What a brilliant, sensitive poet Drew Dellenger is. I am so grateful he is with us in our battle to Occupy Our Lives!

[CRYPTORK]

I am sorry but this is (subliminally) hinting towards the NWO. Occupy what? The system has not budged yet!

[tvswnet]

@CRYPTORK "Occupy what?" I respectfully suggest listening and watching again...to me there are answers to that question. The system won't budge, anyway...it'll collapse or will disintegrate through massive detachment and thus disempowerment of the non-budging systems...who cares if they budge if we're ignoring them and simply creating the change we want to see? 8-)

[CRYPTORK]

@tvswnet Do we need help or are we the help we need? Ever since the 2011 turn up all i have been seeing is "monkey see monkey do" (patterns) in the name of the so-called revolution where as all you have to do is determine the value of consumption and relative association. We should call out for 100 percent and not the 99 pre-tense. Equality for the win!

[tvswnet]

@CRYPTORK WE are that help :-) You're right, it does seem like it's not going anywhere, per se, but I think this is part of it--people feeling fed up, maybe not even sure exactly why/how/what to do, but it's part of it. Your point of monkey see/do is part of our collective problem, IMO: We look outside for our answers & actions--I did the same thing for 25 yrs, but I couldn't see myself as one of the monkeys...now, that I see it, I'm an indie ape 8-), trying to just BE the change... Peace 2 U

[brad45c]

This is wonderful, Drew. I've shared it widely (unusual for me). I've watched three times and I always pop.

[empoweredangel]

Transmute Transmute by Violet Fire all causes and cores Love would not desire, I am a being of Cause alone that cause is Love that Sacred Tone.....Love is answer-the freedom of Free energy-the Freedom to THRIVE, the FReedom to Live and Be in Harmony...The Freedom of our Spirits-the Truth Revealed the veil is lifted...Be responsible-intelligent-in UNITY we have strength...

[GangGreen41]

What a tool.

[noxtwilight]

These are the messages and words we have been longing to hear. These are the words that now must be said, over and over, spread far and wide, to always be mindful of, to always to ring clear and loud in everything we do.

[SOCRATES012]

LOVE TO ALL OF YOU BRAVE SOULS! LETS CONTINUE THE MARCH TOWARS THE SUN TOGETHER IN UNITY AND HARMONY AS IT SHOULD BE

[phillipsluna]

xoxoxxo

[dougtinva]

We came to incite insight.

[awakentograc]

Yes!! Occupy Love and be strong for a loving culture because all life is sacred.

[spiritedmistyq]

Sometimes politicians don't see the light until they feel the heat.

[samborazmatazz]

Drew Dellinger. I write your name out loud to show profound respect for the beauty and the correctness of the stand you have taken. It IS about the heart. We are ALL interconnected. We must be courageous in speaking this and acknowledging this, and pull back the veil that attempts to convince us that we are separate. Yes, we ARE Sean Hannity (though we don't want to believe it) and we must work WITH this awareness, with an open heart, to create the change we seek. Thank you.

[onemindonespirit]

oh for fucks sake

[Sonoskeakigawa]

Dude. Just work at mcdonalds. Everyone starts somewhere. If you do a kickass job, you'll meet people. Start talking to the people you claim to be enemies with. Once you do, you'll see how the system works, and how the jive you're spitting is only that. Jive.

[pouinjai]

@Sonoskeakigawa Of course, do that. Because it is totally normal to accept to pay taxes, to have private banks ruing the economy because of greed, and then have your taxes (that were there to pay for education, etc.) pay those banks to make up for their mistakes, while all it does it put a plaster on the problem to make sure they can push it back and make as much money as they can before it just collapses.

Yes, the system is perfect the way it works right now, let's all go to McDonald's.

[Sonoskeakigawa]

@pouinjai The system isn't -as- broken as you think. It's fucked up, yeah, but the reason why people fail, and why banks are stupid now, is because people have too high standards. This shit has happened for decades, and you don't get that jobs don't fall from trees. Collaborate with people. Make business yourself. Don't expect hires right away.

[Dilutedled]

@Sonoskeakigawa

Agreed. I think this movement is a starting point for people to really take control of their own lives, reach out forth and really grasp the things that they deeply desire out of life, stripped away from the shallow greed that's overrun most 1st world countries across the globe. Everybody knows that money doesn't buy happiness. Try something else.

[Bobbi404]

Beautiful Drew and Velcrow!!  SHARING! ♥

[mRjsKUNCA]

lol  get a job

[brucehaynesza]

"it's time for the people to peacefully fight back, tell congress and the media we're taking the mic back.. we came to incite insight.. "

[melmariemartin]

We are all leaders! Excellent video

[Pangolinx1]

I have a cell phone and a tent.

Fear me. :~)

[elgallodiego]

water, food and home for everybody in the world THAT'S THE BASIC..........

how many people in NORTH AMERICA die because they don't have water to drink.....I think the answer is zero.........what about in AFRICA

We are not the 99%, the police and the army are like dogs they are at least 2% paid by the 1%.......if we go against the 1%.......they have the weapons and they will kill us........

We must build new cities........do not expand the cities ..........and an efficient transportation system
