Shortly after occupiers were evicted from Liberty Square/Zuccotti Park on Nov. 14, 2011, I wrote an article about the importance of activist endurance. To follow are excerpts from that article… to help keep such sentiments alive:

"Thanks for the wild turkey and the passenger pigeons, destined to be shit out through wholesome American guts."

- William S. Burroughs, (from "A Thanksgiving Prayer," 1988)

We must endure because we live in a society where people who volunteer to feed the homeless are openly tear-gassed by the army of the affluent.

We must endure because one of the richest men on the planet can freely order his mercenaries to toss 5,000 books in a trash compactor.

We must endure because when NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg explains how "health and safety conditions became intolerable," he's not talking about Manhattan having the third-highest cancer risk (per million) caused by airborne chemicals of all counties in the United States.
