What makes this movement different from others is that through advocacy, activism and technology we are able to connect with one another quickly to amplify a transnational &#8220;people&#8217;s voice&#8221; generated through social media, citizen journalism and grass root community collaborations.<\/p>\n<p>As long as we stand together we are strong together. Finding ways to stand strong together across our differences is where we need to put our energy. Our &#8220;together work&#8221;\u00a0 is to compassionately deconstruct the oppressions that have divided us so we can become reconnected through actually listening to one another. This process of listening and sharing is the bridge that can help us create an new awareness of one another and our shared global society. We need to commit to the belief that standing strong together over the long term is our life work and pathway.<\/p>\n<p>Published December 2011 in the <a href=\"http:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/?cat=1043\" target=\"_blank\">Material Conditions<\/a> series<\/p>\n<p><strong>Janet Owen Driggs<\/strong> is a writer, artist and curator who, along with Matthew Owen Driggs, frequently participates in the collective identity &#8220;Owen Driggs&#8221;.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.performingpublicspace.org\/\">www.performingpublicspace.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jules Rochielle<\/strong> is a socially and politically engaged artist interested in innovative public practices and collaborations.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.julesrochielle.com\/\">www.julesrochielle.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>made with <a href=\"http:\/\/bookleteer.com\" target=\"_blank\">bookleteer.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download A4 | US Letter 400Kb PDF Read Online About :\u00a0Citizen movements like &#8220;Occupy&#8221; indicate that the boundaries between government, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,1043],"tags":[1077,71,754,1076,1073,1074,1040,1075,1078],"class_list":["post-2561","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-ebooks","category-material-conditions-series","tag-activism","tag-art","tag-bookleteer","tag-citizenship","tag-janet-own-driggs","tag-jules-rochielle","tag-material-conditions","tag-occupy","tag-together-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2561","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2561"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2561\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2580,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2561\/revisions\/2580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/diffusion.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
