When Occupy Wall Street was evicted from its home base in Zuccotti Park on November\u00a015,\u00a02011, by the NYPD in a\u00a0paramilitary-style operation\u00a0under cover of the night with a\u00a0press blackout, the obituaries were being\u00a0written.<\/p>\n
The day before, Occupy Oakland, which vied with New York as the leader of the leaderless movement, was evicted for\u00a0the second and final time. A\u00a0convergence to shut down the New York Stock Exchange on the two-month anniversary of OWS, on November\u00a017, fizzled. Lacking a\u00a0base of operations, two thousand Occupy protesters at most showed up and were bloodily swept away by police from Wall Street and an attempted reoccupation of the park. Over the next few months, Occupy camps were forcefully ousted in Portland, Boston, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Seattle, New Orleans, and Los Angeles with hundreds of\u00a0arrests.<\/p>\n
