"Occupy the Hood": Black Protesters Start Chapter to Educate, Diversify OWS
Founded by Malik Rhasaan, 39 of Queens, N.Y., and Ife Johari Uhuru, 35, based in Detroit, @OccupyTheHood has close to 3,500 followers on Twitter, the growing support of notable figures and a cadre of volunteers devoted to getting the word out about the cause of the protests to African Americans and Latinos.
in the pictures of Occupy Houston (check out their facebook page) you will see how multi-cultural our city is. I hope that the Hoods nationwide are encouraged to participate. The more diversity the better - we all make up the 99%.
