Occupy Pacifica, parts 1 and 2: Is Occupy a Movement or Moment? And the Culture of Resistance

Pacifica Radio Network, with locally-based community radio stations dispersed all over the country, taps into the energy of the historic grassroots Occupy phenomenon. Voices, thoughts, and reports from movement participants from different parts of the US.

In part one the question is asked: Is the Occupy a movement or moment?

Also Occupy updates from around the world.

In part 2 we learn about the culture of Occupy. "The Culture of Resistance" features more voices, thoughts, and reports from movement participants from different parts of the US.

What are the cultural commonalities amongst various occupations, and what are the differences? How does culture impact the political aspirations and identity of a community? How open and accessible is the culture of Occupy?
