Occupy Wall Street Anniversary Remembered In Shocking Video Of NYPD Arrests

2013-09-18T22:15:44.949Z

One day before the two-year anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York, a new film sheds light on the NYPD's controversial treatment of protesters.

Created by activist Paul-Henri Sullivan and his brother Justin, the short documentary shows ten arrests over the course of 87 minutes during Occupy's first-anniversary march.

“On the eve of the second anniversary of OWS it bears remembering that the occupations didn’t simply fizzle and dissipate,” said Sullivan, according to The Sparrow Project. "This video, shot last year on the morning of the first anniversary, not only reminds us of how difficult it is to protest when the NYPD is determined to shut you down, but also how the NYPD continues to suppress civil liberties in order to stamp out the movement.”

Watch above as cops, led by a "white-shirt" captain, grab protesters from the sidewalks and handcuff them. Sullivan says cops deliberately created "the spectacle of arrest" in order to intimidate other protesters. 185 protesters were arrested during last year's anniversary march.

A the end of the video, watch as Sullivan himself gets handcuffed.

Occupy - Get Involved (#S17 1 Year Anniversary)

2012-09-14T20:42:09.864Z

"Last September 17th, as part of a wave of global protest, people from across the country raced to the heart of New York's financial district to occupy Wall Street. In the face of big banks foreclosing on our homes, killing our jobs, buying up our democracy, and turning our environment into just another toxic asset, you showed up, and we became the 99%."

Lupe talks Retiring, Kendrick Lamar, Occupy Movement, CRS

2012-09-13T01:01:32.119Z

http://www.hardknock.tv Exclusive in-depth interview with Lupe Fiasco. Part 2 starts with Nick Huff Barili asking Lupe if he has worked with any of the new generation artists like Kendrick Lamar and Blu on Food & Liquor 2. Lupe responds that he wants to be a fan but not necessarily collaborate cause he doesn't want to taint his vision of them. Nick continues by asking if Lupe feels he has to sneak in substance into music that plays in a commercial realm. Lupe not only answers that but also goes into misconceptions regarding his last album Lasers and says that the production on F&L 2 will be modern hip hop beats. Talking about the Occupy Wall Street movement, Lupe says that it's better of without the media's cameras there everyday trying to define it because now the movement has room to grow on its own. Lupe goes on to explain what he means by wanting to retire from the music industry and his interest in teaching. Before we let him go, he addresses the latest with All City Chess Club, CRS ( with Kanye and Pharrell) and the album he is going to put out with just Pharrell.
