7:45Now Playingwww.DemocracyNow.org - From Buenos Aires to Toronto, Kuala Lumpur to London, hundreds of thousands of people rallied on Saturday in a global day of action against corporate greed and budget cutbacks, demanding better living conditions and a more equitable distribution of wealth and resources. Protests reportedly took place in 1,500 cities, including 100 cities in the United States — all in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement that launched one month ago in New York City. Democracy Now! broadcasts video reports from Athens at a protest at Syntagma Square against austerity measures and corporate greed, speak to an activist in Rome where 200,000 rallied, and speaks to an activist at the Occupy Tokyo protest. Also aired is an excerpt from a speech by Julian Assange of WikiLeaks at Occupy London's protest at the Stock Exchange.
