As the inaugural post for my personal blog, I would like to share an article regarding the early history of the Occupy Atlanta movement, written by my colleague Theo Tegemae, and myself. It is our combined hope that this critical documentation will raise important questions within the Occupy movements in the south that have so far not been seriously discussed. In this article, we are speaking as advocates for a direct democracy. We hope our evaluations and criticisms of  Occupy Atlanta are seen in this light. The article, "Occupy Atlanta: Privilege Politics or Popular Self-Management for the Post-Civil Rights City" was published in this month's issue of Insurgent Notes by our friend Loren Goldner.

You can read the article here: http://insurgentnotes.com/author/theo/

We also hope that you will please have patience with our efforts, as we are both somewhat new to internet communication and blog publishing.

Thank you for reading,
