For any who believe Occupy to be dead, you need only look into a mirror.

29. Far from dead. We have not even really begun yet. That was just the dressed rehearsal.

What happened last fall was a spark. It breathed a little bit of new life into a very old movement. Occupy is just a current expression of a movement that has been going on long before any of us was born. And it will still be going on long after we are gone.

Chris Hedges called it a dressed rehearsal for the real thing yet to happen. And I think that's a decent analogy.

A new generation of activists has come of age with Occupy and gotten some vital experience. Many will engage in a life time of activism in one form or another.

The movement will adapt and evolve but the ideas are too powerful to die.
