Occupy Shoreline CT mock funeral procession for the middle class
Occupy Shoreline CT presents a New Orleans style mock funeral procession mourning the demise of the middle class, Saturday, December 31st, at 1 p.m. on the Guilford Green. A Dixieland band will lead the way from the corner of Whitfield and Water Streets around the Green. Eulogies in front of the Guilford Library at 1:30 pm.
Accomplices in the middle class's passing will be in the procession, including Re-writing of the Tax Code, Changes in Campaign Financing, and Lax Banking Regulations. Rounding up the march will be a Corporation purporting to be a person (pictured with visual artist Ellen van Wees of Madison).
Dress in black to respect the deceased. Bring a parasol in New Orleans style. Play an instrument? Join the band. Bring your friends, neighbors, and holiday guests. Let them see what the Occupy movement looks like locally.
