Some interactions in respectful discussion:
- Facebook page The Tea Party Occupy Connection. Discuss what issues you think the ‘right’ and the ‘left’ have common ground. One issue talked about between Wake Up America and Occupy is the concern for the erosion of our Constitutional rights. What common ground do you see that ‘both sides’ share concerns?
Linda Sturgeon, Jeff Golden, Joseph Snook
- This site under continual development came as an outgrowth of people coming together for a panel discussion on April 23rd, 2012, Medford Congregational United Church of Christ, Medford, Oregon. The church had standing room only with a full spectrum of politically diverse people in attendance. Discussion panelists: Linda Sturgeon and Evan Lasley, members of Occupy Ashland, Joseph Snook and Ron Lee, members of Wake Up America. A previous panel which was aired on Southern Oregon Public TV had Linda Sturgeon and Ben Playfair (Occupy) and Joseph Snook and Nate Wente in discussion (see video).
- Soon after, folks from across the political spectrum came together to rally on Feb 13th againt the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act, section 1021 unlimited detention – see video).
