Occupy El Paso, Day 3

Things are really coming together, with a big group of occupiers in the Placita and an even bigger group of supporters.  Those of us who have been staying the night are beginning to feel some sleep deprivation, but hopefully as time goes on we’ll get more disciplined (or not) about staying up talking all night.  Also, the cold has been pretty uncomfortable, but there have been plenty of donations of blankets and everything else we need.  The donations have been amazing!  Word is getting out, and labor, environmental groups, and artists have been making contact about participating.  We’re students, workers, the unemployed, musicians, veterans, teachers, artists, and retirees.  And our message about taking back our country and the world from the billionaires and greedy corporations is being heard. ¡No nos moveran!
