Guest Episode: Occupy! An Unfinished Uprising

We're sharing an episode from a new series: Occupy! An Unfinished Uprising, from Future Hindsight.In 2011, in the wake of the financial crisis and Great Recession stemming from Wall Street wheeling and dealing gone bad, protesters gathered in lower Manhattan to take a stand. The movement quickly spread across the U.S. and beyond, inspiring hundreds of occupations and a new generation of activists. Occupy went quiet after a couple of months, but the movement changed the national conversation about capitalism and awakened a generation of activists. Occupy! An Unfinished Uprising, is told through the voices of people who took part, with host Mila Atmos.  Find the rest of the series wherever you get your shows, or at Future Hindsight.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
