Convergence Center

DATE: November 28, 2012
WHERE: Convergence Center, Seattle
VIDEOGRAPHER CREDIT: Josh and Mark of PTTV

So the story goes, that the Direct Action Network divided the area around the Convention Center into 13 slices of pie. The affinity groups took responsibility for shutting down traffic and blocking entrance to the Convention Center in each of those slices. There was a lot of planning and training in non-violent action for weeks, months ahead of time. People streamed in from all over the world to take part.... stay tuned. Thanks to Josh and Mark of PTTV for these stills off their video.
