This is what Democracy cooks like!
#OccupyDameStreet established a pop-up Soup Kitchen outside the AIB bank on Grafton Street shortly after 4pm on Wednesday, 16th November. Drawing on the fantastic cooking skills on display almost every evening in the Dame Street Camp, passers-by were treated to free veggie soup to cries of “This is what Democracy cooks like”, information about #OccupyDameStreet was distributed, and the crowds demolished the fare in double-quick time. If you have an idea for a flash-mob, pop-up event or other form of Direct Action that you would like to organise, please drop into the camp or contact #OccupyDameStreet through this website or the comments below.

Statement
#OccupyDameStreet is a people’s movement, which stands in solidarity with and is inspired by over 1,400 (Occupytogether.org 15/10/11) sister occupations in the evolving global movement initiated by the people of Iceland, Greece, Spain, and the Arab Spring. We use tactics of non-violence akin to scenes of peaceful resistance in Tahrir Square and Wall Street. This is a diverse people’s initiative, unaffiliated with any political parties. We are the 99%. We stand together against political and economic corruption. We stand for equality and social justice. This is a "leaderless resistance movement" with people of many nationalities, backgrounds, genders and political persuasions.
