On December 6th, 2011 Occupy Atlanta began the occupation of the Pittman home at 404 Glen Iris Dr. Atlanta, GA 30308. This video does what it can to tell the story of the PIttman family and why their home is occupied. After the illness and death of the homeowner Chase Bank immediately moved to foreclose and now evict the Pittman family. The late homeowner, Mrs. Eloise Mallory Pittman, passed away on November 29th. As the family has been preparing for her funeral, to be held on December 10th, Chase Bank representatives have knocked on the door offering $1500 for the family to walk away from a home that has been in the family since 1953.

  • what did the pittmans do with all the cash chase gave them? isnt chase losing a lot of money on this home? seems liket he pittmans made a profit, not chase.

  • this bank needs to do the incredible to help the Pittmans, i expect nothing less

  • I APPRECIATE YOU AND SUPPORT YOU !

  • .

    CEO of Countrywide got a slap on the wrist from SEC with a fine of 22mil but he received 120 some million over 5 years but no changes have been laid in addition to CEO of Golden Slacks(Goldman Sacks). My sympathy to u.In Canada their r greater regulations on mortgage applications and reviews and r scrutinized very carefully before acceptance because of the rules spell out in the Canada Banking Act with respect to mortgages applications.

    Shame on u Wall street Banksters.

  • I send the Pittman family & others like them my love & support form Australia.

    To see these young children & other family members crying brought tears to my eyes.

    Our current global system is nu-sustainable & we must stand together, before more people end up in situations like this.

  • incredibly moving. i wish i could have been there today
