From black panthers to young philosophers, to Hasidic Jews, to journalists, to musicians, to CEOs, to the homeless, to kids with I-Pads, to ex- Wall Street members shouting ‘I don’t think it’s the people that are the problem, it’s the system and these bad incentives.” We were all the same and instantaneously in solidarity and conversation towards change. All of us had ideologies but what blanketed the air most was that all of us were at work for each other in a two acre plot of land in the midst of the concrete jungle we call New York.
