#OCCUPYWALLSTREET beats Bloomberg's eviction!!!!

This video was shot on the morning of September 14th, the day of Bloomberg's scheduled eviction of #OCCUPYWALLSTREET from Zuccotti Park. We won!!!

The moment everyone begins to cheer in the video was the moment the protesters found out they could stay [about 7:00]. Up until that moment it looked as though we were all going to be arrested.

I arrived at Zuccotti Park at 6:00 and was greeted with an incredible sight. The park was overflowing with protesters. It looked as though the protest had tripped from the largest I had seen it since the start of the protest. I was at the front line between the protesters and police to get the best footage.

People from around the world are invited to join-
