10:44 AM: November 2, 2011 - Oakland general strike. There are people at rally saying longshoreman support OWS and Port of Oakland is shut down, but then we're getting word from port that it's not - so, not sure what to make of it yet.


11:00 AM: Watching Oakland live right now and they're plugging Nov. 5, Move Your Money campaign.

11:22 AM: Here is a series of articles attempting to provide a theoretical framework for thinking about OWS (here, here and here). And here's a post about something I have started writing about myself - namely, whether OWS can be thought of in terms of right and left.

2:15 PM: Occupy Oakland barricade Bank of America.
