Michael Moore Addresses Ongoing “Occupy Wall Street” Protest

HeadlineSep 27, 2011

The “Occupy Wall Street” protest in Lower Manhattan has entered its eleventh day as hundreds of people continue to camp out just blocks from Wall Street. On Monday night, filmmaker Michael Moore visited the protest encampment. Police have barred the protesters from using any form of public address system at the encampment so the crowd repeated Michael Moore’s comments.

Michael Moore, filmmaker: “Whatever you do, don’t despair, because this is the hard part. You’re in the hard part right now. But everyone will remember three months from now, six months from now, a hundred years from now, that you came down to this plaza and you started this movement.”
