Occupy D.C. protesters vow to carry on despite camping regulations

By Hesse, M, Farhi, P. The Washington Post. 31th January, 2012




Abstract : Explains the phenomena of Occupy DC, their ways of life, motivations and leitmotivs.

Extract : "It had to go, all of it, the bedrolls and blankets and crusty Nalgene bottles, the comfy camp accoutrements that have, over the course of four months, turned McPherson Square into a radical protest experiment, communal living cooperative and REI advertisement.


“Occupy is supposed to mean occupy,” says Eric Kovacevic, as he and a companion methodically piled garbage bags full of their assorted stuff — pillows, clothing, travel-size toiletries — outside his domed tent. “You know, like [the United States] has occupied other countries.” "
