## Resource

Fifteen years after its birth, Occupy Wall Street is back in Zuccotti Park — not as a protest, but as a powerful reminder that inequality hasn’t just persisted, it’s gotten worse. Veterans and new supporters gathered using the iconic human microphone technique, echoing the movement’s original spirit of collective action and mutual aid. What began as a camp in the park evolved into a global catalyst for organizing, sparking real-world change like forgiving $46 billion in medical debt. While critics note its lack of clear goals, the movement’s legacy lives on: it shifted public discourse, united diverse communities, and proved that when people come together, they can build something lasting — even if the fight is far from over.
