  • The Medium Is the Masses: Embodied Amplifcation, Urban Occupation
    The Medium is the Masses: Embodied Amplifcation, Urban Occupation Katherine Kelp-Stebbins and Allison M. Schifani In September 2011, groups of community organizers, activists, and others gathered to protest economic inequality in New York City’s Zuccotti Park under the banner of "Occupy Wall Street." The crowd that formed in the heart of the city’s financial district launched what became a diverse and global movement now known simply as "Occupy." In this initiatory protest, a city ordinance prevented speakers from using electronic amplification systems to address the large audience. Occupiers tactically responded to the absence of microphones or megaphones and speaker systems with an embodied technology known as the people’s mic. In its practice, participants hoping to address the crowds in attendance and at general assemblies (meetings open to all for planning future actions and administering to the daily needs of the occupiers) shouted “mic check,” and the crowd of bodies around them loudly echoed the speaker in response. Thus, they could deliver messages to those out of earshot in the occupied spaces. This phenomenon spread well beyond the boundaries of Zuccotti Park to Occupy protests in Oakland, Los Angeles, Detroit, Portland, and elsewhere. The people’s mic became so emblematic and—we will argue—intrinsic to the objectives of occupation that participants used it instead of electronic Media Fields Journal no. 9 (2015) 2 Medium is the Masses amplification in many places where such communication systems were legal and available. Our project is to articulate the specific context and stakes involved in Occupy’s tactical use of embodied technology.

  • Schueller 2012
    Student Anthropologist, Volume. 3, Number 1 Inside Occupy Ohio State University (OSU): Values, Media, and the Role of Public Universities in the Occupy Movement Emily Schueller The Ohio State University Abstract ! During 2011, a group of activists established an Occupy group at The Ohio State University in solidarity with the global movement. Although Occupy Wall Street has been analyzed by many social scientists, its influence on campuses has not been as critically examined. The purpose of this study is to examine how the ideals and tactics of the Occupy movement have impacted student activism. Methods include semi-structured interviews with members of Occupy OSU and participant-observation, which involved attending Occupy OSU events. Interlocutors include students, one faculty member, and community activists from Columbus, Ohio. By examining the impact of the Occupy movement on The Ohio State University’s campus, this study provides an analysis of the effects of social movements on a university community. Observations during meetings, events, and in casual settings uncover a value system which governs Occupy OSU and illustrates how activists use resources and experiment in direct democracy. In this article, I argue that Occupy Wall Street empowered student activists by providing them with some of the tools, networking opportunities, and motivation for a new student movement. Keywords: Social movement, Occupy, student movement Introduction ! Whether one agrees or disagrees with the rhetoric and tactics of Occupy Wall Street, the movement’s democratic significance cannot be denied. In order to understand youth and university approaches to the OWS movement, I have carried out a case study of Occupy OSU as a subculture with a distinct value system and institutions that reflect those values.

  • The Journal of Social Theory in Art Education (JSTAE)
    i PreOccupy/Maximum Occupancy Kryssi Staikidis Northern Illinois University [email protected] Editorial When the Editor and Associate Editor conceived of this call for papers for PreOccupy/Maximum Occupancy, it was based on the Caucus members’ input during the annual meetings of the Caucus on Social Theory and Art Education (CSTAE) at the National Art Education Association conference, NAEA 2012, New York. We listened to our colleagues speak about the year’s events, and we discussed how we as art educators could respond to the needs of the Caucus and of our field for Volume 33 of the Journal of Social Theory in Art Education (JSTAE). Staikidis, K. (2013) PreOccupy/Maximum Occupancy. (editorial). The Journal of Social Theory In Art Education (33) (K. Staikidis, Ed.). i-vii. ii As Editors developing a call for papers, Sharif Bey and I used a kind of call and response method of work. We questioned, debated, and discussed the Caucus dialogues during which a variety of possible themes arose—geography of the body, viruses-viral, trickle up, banding together, immaterial, and preoccupy/maximum occupancy. PreOccupy/Maximum Occupancy was chosen by the group. As Sharif and I worked, we distilled our own ideas related to the theme in a somewhat non-linear way, ending with the question: How might we create a call broad enough to elicit multiple submissions that could and would inspire writers, artists, educators, and activists? Since we could not visit each other’s homes, we did this through virtual collaboration. At the end of each session, we sent each other some questions, or prose, a poem maybe, the result of our conversations, our easy exchange of ideas.

  • Is This What Democracy Looks Like?
    Theron Schmidt, ‘Is This What Democracy Looks Like? The Politics of Representation and the Representation of Politics’, in Performing Antagonism: Theatre, Performance & Radical Democracy, ed. by Tony Fisher and Eve Katsouraki, Performance Philosophy (Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, 2017), pp. 101–30. http://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-349-95100-0_6 accepted author final draft version Abstract Taking its inspiration from the 21st-century protest chant, ‘This is what democracy looks like!’, this chapter explores the interrelation between theories of representation and modes of radical democracy. Drawing on Jacques Rancière, Chantal Mouffe, and others, Schmidt analyses recent political actions that refuse to adhere to what he calls ‘the politics of the count’, including demonstrations against tuition fee increases in the UK, the 2011 London riots, the actions of UK Uncut, and Occupy, all of which emerged within the same twelve months. Such actions produce a representational crisis in two interrelated meanings of the idea of representation: they challenge representational democracy, but also challenge our understandings of what counts as the political—that is to say, what politics looks like. 1 Everyone has their own way in. For me, the story begins shortly after 9/11 and the subsequent bombing campaign in Afghanistan, when I began to become aware that these global acts of violence have their sources much closer to home—and, indeed, could even be mapped to what was then my own home, the US state of Georgia. Feeling helpless in the face of violence that I could not prevent, and desperate to make a difference where I might be able, I travelled with others to the US Army base at Fort Benning, near the border with Alabama.

  • Reconsidering Occupy Oakland and Its Horizons
    Reconsidering Occupy Oakland and Its Horizons: Media Misframing, Decolonizing Fractures, and Enduring Resistance Hub Madison Marie Alvarado Research Supervisor: Frances Susan Hasso Reader: Jennifer Christine Nash This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Graduation with Distinction in the Program in Gender, Sexuality, and Feminist Studies Duke University Durham, North Carolina 2021 Abstract Reconsidering Occupy Oakland and Its Horizons is an archival study of the creation, reception, evolution, and remembrance of Occupy Oakland using a feminist lens. I investigate how Occupy Oakland’s radically democratic mobilization against economic violence, racism, and police violence was undermined by local and regional news coverage—namely in the San Francisco Chronicle and Oakland Tribune—through framing devices that demonized protesters and delegitimized the movement. I nevertheless found differences between local and regional coverage. Occupy Oakland challenged existing hegemonic boundaries regarding participatory democracy as its activists –seasoned and less experienced people from multiple generations – experimented with horizontal world-building through community structures, methods, and processes. This horizontal radical movement nevertheless struggled with the same divisions and inequalities that existed outside its camps: heteropatriarchy, white supremacy, and classism. The “stickiness” of embodied and structural inequalities persisted in Occupy Oakland camps despite efforts to create a radically egalitarian community. The nature of this stickiness can only be understood by taking seriously the local material and institutional conditions, obstacles, and histories that shaped the spaces of protest and its participants. Though news coverage often describes the movement as a failure, several new projects and coalitions formed during and after Occupy Oakland, illustrating its dynamic legacy and challenging social movement scholarship that reproduces temporal demise frameworks in its analysis.

  • A Sociological Analysis of Themes in the Occupy! Gazette
    A Sociological Analysis of Themes in the Occupy! Gazette Billie Potts Advisor: Professor Shani Evans Swarthmore College Department of Sociology and Anthropology May 2021 Introduction What inspired me to research the Occupy! Gazette? Nearly a decade ago, when I was thirteen years old, Occupy Wall Street began in New York City’s Zuccotti Park. Occupy Wall Street can be considered a reaction to the US political response to the Great Recession. And while I was not consciously following politics at the time, I had already experienced the material impacts of the Great Recession. The Great Recession was the first crisis of capitalism that I was aware of. And understanding it has fundamentally shaped how I see the world. The housing market bubble began to pop at the beginning of 2006 in the United States. Because my dad worked as a foreman in the siding business, his employment was put in jeopardy. My mom worked part-time at the local supermarket deli, but otherwise took care of my sister and me. During my dad’s subsequent time unemployed, and then self-employed, my family struggled to make ends meet. My family nearly lost our home as a result. My aunt, who lived with us, and is a dental hygienist had to step in and take over the mortgage. My mom went to school to become an LPN in 2008, after which our financial situation stabilized. While I was too young to realize that “the banks got bailed out, we got sold out” at the time, my subsequent realization of the socioeconomic conditions that produced my family’s struggle helped shape my worldview.
