A new set begins: Unfortunately, I had to leave Zuccotti to attend to other obligations on the day this show was taped. Later that evening, the NYPD invaded the park and made many arrests. It was, however, an inspiring day and one sensed a renewal of energy in the movement.
Comment: Just prior to completing this episode, I heard a march going past our loft. I ran out with my micro-cassette recorder and joined the march as it proceeded to Times Square. The march was part of the Million Hoodie March, commemorating and protesting what many believe to be the unjust death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, FLA. Here is a link that explains the case in detail:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Trayvon_Martin

Comment: Thanks for listening to this episode of The Dusty Show. I hope you enjoyed it. I had a lot of audio-footage to edit down ... almost three hours of it. Lately, I've been wondering if I should add the extra stuff to the podcast? Something to ponder. The six-month anniversary was a moving event to witness. Though it may have lacked some of the visceral power of early-Occupy days at the Zuccotti encampment, there was still a sense of renewed energy in the air. The NYPD seemed to be making a statement of their own as well, so it ill be interesting and crucial to see how it all plays out in the months ahead. I'll follow it when I can, trying to tap into the feeling of the moment ... Doccupying, as it were. Hopefully you'll make the trip with me. I'm sure they'll be interesting developments. There always are. Until next time. Take care. Always Remember.Clayton P. PigeonNYC421299
