<p><em>Above: The NYPD protects Wall Street from Flood Wall Street
protesters.</em></p>
<p>The Flood Wall Street Protest began at the WW II Memorial in
Battery Park at the lower tip of Manhattan at 9:00 AM. Speakers
from around the world representing people from Africa, Central
America, South America, North America and Asia spoke to the
crowd of approximately 3,000 about how climate change is already
impacting their environment and lives with droughts, floods,
heat waves and massive storms. The group than practiced the
resistance action of the day — flowing like water down in the
financial district leading to a sit-in, in an undisclosed area.</p>
<p>They also practiced a song: The People are going to rise like
water — We’re going to calm this crisis down — We hear the voice
of a great grand-daughter — Calling shut Wall Street down. </p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/E9vz48ZSZew"

<p>Three thousand Flood Wall Streeters marched into the financial
district with a massive carbon bomb blimp, signs and banners.
When they surrounded the iconic Wall Street bull, the Flood Wall
Streeters sat down and blocked the streets. The take-over of the
streets around the bull was something the Occupy Wall Street
movement never accomplished. The sit-in lasted from about noon
until just before 4:00 PM when the group decided to march to
Wall Street for the closing bell of the trading session. A group
of Flood Wall Streeters hijacked a tour bus and their video of
the protest shows the energy of the massive sit-in. The 300 foot
banner being held says “Capitalism=Climate Chaos, Flood Wall
Street.”</p>

<p>When they got to Wall Street there was a multi-layered police
barricade blocking the street that included a line of police on
horseback and multiple barricades. There was an effort to push
through the barricades but the police held their ground. The
struggle between police and protesters to remove the barricades
so the march could continue to the stock exchange down Wall
Street. Police used pepper spray to push back protesters,
approximately 10 people were hit with pepper spray. One reporter
was also punched in the face by a police officer. The Flood Wall
Streeters then occupied the area outside of Wall Street on
Broadway. The police surrounded them gradually pulling in the
barricades and warning them of pending arrests. In the end,
photo journalist, Jenna Pope, estimates nearly 100 people were
arrested, including a polar bear.</p>
