More and More Blackfolk Joining the OccupyWall & Occupy Norfolk!...

Ok, there's a lot of info in the posting immediately below the line about Black involvement in Occupy Wall Street (OWS)  and more. 
Dua (thank you) to Sister Diana for this note and a double Dua to all of the local Sistahs and Brothas who have responded to our call to Occupy Norfolk (ON) .  I ask everyone to protest in Hotep (peace), we are not in any position to confront any one wearing guns..  Further, I am asking you to send me your first-hand reports of your observations at the ON march to share with others.  Also, I have asked my partner in NYC, Bro M'Bwebe of www.daghettotymz.com to share the Black perspective on real-time events at OWS.
 
This is the link for ON so that you can determine when you may wish to participate:   mbwebe@daghettotymz.com

Filmmaker Obatala Mawusi said that the days he spent documenting the Occupy Wall Street protests in New York City were "eye-opening." In particular, the diversity he saw among the protesters belied the images of the movement in mainstream media. In early October 2011, Mawusi spoke to some of the Black participants about why the Occupy Wall Street movement attracted them.
