Michael Greenberg on Zuccotti Park.

The New York Review of Books has an excellent article on Zuccotti Park by Michael Greenberg.  He is surprised as he sees all that is being done to realize that this is a movement that is only a few months old.  Katie Davison, who is an active organizer, describes her job as "getting out the message, to help people understand the nature of economic inequality and think for themselves".  She says, "I want us to be the country's moral touchstone.  Its unofficial conscience. Its model for what is good."
