A request for help - iconic pictures of Occupy protests

[BelgianMadCow]

Hello all,

I'm invited to give a lecture about democracy, and will spend considerable time on the Occupy movement (which has sprung up in force in Spain again, see here). I'm looking for some great pictures to illustrate what I'm saying. I was looking for the one where riot police stand in line before a bank, but can't seem to find it. Also pictures of kettling and the use of gas & rubber bullets or bean bags, and of course pictures of the crowds.

I'm hoping some of you have such pictures "under your thumb", I'd appreciate it.

1. ...think I have lost most of my photos but will look

I took soup and goodies to the Occupiers every day while I was working in DC... an Occupier enjoying some Molasses cookies

12. love the last one

but the whole "lets clean the camps in hazmat suits" was yet another remarkable thing.

Thanks, handmade34, I really appreciate you looking.

2. If you want occupy pics, go to the authorities

At Occupy L.A. actions the LAPD was taking both still and video pics of us every time.

11. Oh yes. The first one is going straight to my presentation.

and the Brooklyn bridge arrests - another key moment. Inspired me to draw a parallel in a newspaper editorial meeting with an arrest over here in the macrh against monsanto. Hit a nerve with some people.

TYVM!

4. There are other pics available, but this is one I took

It was at Occupy's M1Gs (May 1st General Strike) in L.A. in 2012.

10. your first one, indeed, is the one that made me post this thread

6. Cool!

May I ask who the lecture's for? I'm just curious, no need to share if you'd prefer to keep it private,

These are iconic to me:

But my favorite...

13. I'm gonna use the kettle video, thanks!

especially since we saw the tactic deployed here a year ago as well. I thought I was gonna be ill.

The public is twenty-year old university students. I've been warned they don't give a flying fuck about politics. Let's see if I can get 'em awake and give them some ideas. I bet I can - they recently started a FB group to protest not having a course-free week, so they know about organized resistance

thanks for your help!

7. Have you tried Google?

8. DU's "Occupy Underground Group" has all the protests going back...

You could post your query there and scroll through the archives (23 pages) of all the Occupy Actions around the country at the time. From what I remember folks were posting pictures and it's a good background for what was going on.
