Uploaded by occupysfmediavideo on Nov 4, 2011
This video shows the events of Occupy Oakland's General Strike on 11/02/11. From the morning rally in downtown Oakland until the successful picketing of the Port of Oakland.
For most of the participants, the day was positive, inspiring and empowering. Unfortunately, a few dozen people decided to riot later that evening. The next day, that was all you heard about on the news.
This video attempts to capture the vibe of the General Strike.

Occupy Oakland General Strike, CAR hits pedestrian protesterby eelcloud8,487 views
@m4ntxs If all you see out of this movement is violence and destruction, then quite frankly you have not been looking at all. During the general strike, between 40-and 100,000 people showed up to protest in San Francisco and Oakland. Of those, it was only estimated that around a hundred or so were consciously and intentionally causing wanton destruction.
Violence among the protesters has been strongly discouraged by a vast majority of the group since day one.

@joelcov The whole movement is anarchist by its very nature. Anarchy is not the problem. The problem is individuals who feel that the only way to bring attention to the movement, or to have their voices heard is through violence and destruction. These are the actions of nihilists and riled youth who simply don't fully understand the repercussions of their actions, not anarchists.
