Occupy Wall Street Organizers look for minorities (Hispanic, Chicago, states)

[SyraBrian]

I would prefer that minorities didn't come out en masse.

Not looking forward to the "they're protesting when they should be looking for work" posts.

Maybe they're wanting to make sure everyone in the 99% is represented. Just a thought.

Is the Occupy Wall Street movement racist? Where are all the minorities? Is this an all white movement? Can we take such protests seriously?

You know,I'm all for protesting something that enrages you or you don't like,but hell,who has the time to do it?

Yard needs mowed,field needs bushhogged,gotta work this week,who would feed the stock etc etc

So the lack of minorities at tea party rallies was evidence of racism. Can we say the same for the so-called Occupy Wall Street protest? And if not, why not?

Surely the charge of racism in the former wasn't a cynical move to score political points, was it? Surely our MSM wouldn't do such a thing, being as how they have the highest professional standards and wouldn't dare use such a serious thing as the charge of racism to disparge one side in a political movement!

Most of the minorities are too busy working to protest.

I'm a minority, I'll be happy to join Occupy Wall St. I'm also older than many of the protesters too.
