Tuesday, April 10th, 2012


Arron Griffin from In Our Hearts explains an anarchists view on OWS. Union Square, Easter Sunday.

He wishes to make this statement: “In regards to people who participate in black blocs, I feel that the statement ‘property destruction is not violence’ was an oversimplification, and doesn’t accurately describe my position on it. Things can easily be distorted from that, and I am personally dedicated to nonviolent, constructive means. I simply regret my choice of words.”
