What Is Occupy Toledo?

Occupy Toledo is a nonviolent assembly of individuals from all walks of life who stand in solidarity with the occupation of Wall Street in New York City and with the overarching Occupy movement across our nation and the world.

We stand with the 99%. Our demands will be decided as a group in daily meetings of the General Assembly. Be a part of the process. October 10th at 11am in Levis Square, Downtown Toledo.

We will only grow stronger in our solidarity and we will be heard, not just in New York, but in echoes across this nation.

The occupation does not conform to the expectations of a protest.
The traditional practice of protesting has failed the people.

A protest is at first antagonism. An occupation is at first COMMUNITY.

A protest is defined by opposition. An occupation is defined by PRESENCE.

A protest is singular. An occupation is MULTITUDE.
