2.     The Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church in  New York
This reading will celebrate The Occupy Wall Street Poetry Anthology. The OWS Poetry Anthology is a living/breathing, all-inclusive, and constantly expanding anthology of poetry in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement. The anthology is huge; maybe even one of the largest collections of poetic dissidence ever compiled while a movement was gathering and working to make its voices known.

Admission to the event is free and the reading will be modeled similarly to the Friday evening poetry assembly readings that have taken place at Liberty Plaza for the majority of the occupation there. Readers will sign up to read from the anthology or from work they feel to be relevant to the OWS movement, and then chosen by lot.
For more information about the OWS Poetry Anthology: http://peopleslibrary.wordpress.com/

And a big shout out to Stephen Boyer and his incredible diligence and commitment to making this project happen.
