A Message to Occupy Birmingham from Chomsky

Occupy Birmingham | 29.11.2011 11:29 | Occupy Everywhere | Free Spaces | Public sector cuts | Workers' Movements | Birmingham

The Occupy Birmingham camp has received the following message of support from Noam Chomsky

‘Just returned from trips away and found your message. Very pleased to learn of what you are doing. I wouldn’t presume to give advice from this distance. The spreading Occupy movements have been highly successful already in changing the general tenor or discourse and focusing on the real problems of the 99% since the Reagan-Thatcher onslaught on the general population took off. It won’t be easy to reverse this dangerous course, but it is necessary if there is to be any hope of a decent future.

Noam Chomsky’
