Despite heavy intimidation by both police and the mainstream media thousands of people turned out to protest against the WEF in New York. Mainstream media also grossly underestimated how many people actually turned out for the demonstration. CNN reported that there were "almost 1000" protestors, while Reuters guessed that there were between "three and five thousand." The march stretched for several blocks and involved somewhere between 10 and 20 thousand people. Note there were also 4,000 cops. photo de la marche des opposants au FEM à NYvieuxcmaq, Monday, February 4, 2002 - 12:00

Un très large mouvement de solidarité se déploie ces jours de simili-printemps (réchauffement global oblige), au sein des diverses coalitions new-yorkaises regroupant plusieurs axes de résistance face à la mondialisation néolibérale et à la privatisation du monde politique engagée par le Forum économique.

Art is the message through which these protestors make their feelings on the World Economic Forum known. |
