a very protest christmas

Visited Occupy Boston awhile ago to see a lecture from a volunteering UMass Boston econ professor. Lots of thoughtful question and answer. This was during the camp expansion, which coincided with the Sachem Bridge occupation, drawing the cops away during the move - well organized.

Also thematically related is the Low Anthem concert I went to last night. I was late late late because of an improvisational dance performance I was in with a visiting choreographer Michael Jahoda, kind of similar to a thing I did last year with Monica Bill Barnes, both loads of fun.

Anyway, so I only caught the last few songs inside the venue (Somerville Theater), BUT then the band went outside and proceeded to play for another hour, entirely folk classic singalongs. It was an impromptu night of outdoor occupation. All about community participation, improvisation, voice, and good lighting. Here's my cell phone cinematography: my first youtube video!
