NYPD officers cleared the park at midnight, having arrested more than one dozen protesters who chose to stand their ground. RT's Lucy Kafanov filmed the aftermath.



People are rising up against the authorities all around the world. Is this a crisis of the current political and economic system? What do these protests have in common? Is it democracy in action? Or is it all just an unwillingness to accept the new challenges new generations face? And can the government actually meet their demands? CrossTalking with Pepe Escobar, Richard Sennett and Ambassador Terry Miller.



One of the major grievances uniting protesters across the U.S., is anger at the government for putting corporate welfare above that of citizens. But that point seems lost to much of America's mainstream media. So activists are getting creative to get that point across, as Gayane Chichakyan explains.
