I’m an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such.

I see anarchism as something you do not an identity...

...so don’t call me the anarchist anthropologist

“clean-up” excuse seems a nationally coordinated strategy. Tried it on us in Austin last night – “we need to clean 2 hours every day”! #OWS

Gee I must be getting somewhere in life if bizarre right-wing Christians feel they have to pen condemnations of my work http://t.co/1d1mqXPb

not only do NYTimes reporters take orders directly from Wall Street, so apparently does the NYPD – http://t.co/GKK6f3er

why do people keep calling me “the anarchist anthropologist”? It’s not a kind of anthropologist. Otherwise ok interview http://t.co/H56Z8d59

first they ignore you, then they mock you, then they say – “what? we totally support this sort of thing!” http://t.co/Q3Y5AIE2

top 5 most-used words in “we are the 99%” discussion page: jobs, debt, work, college, pay. http://t.co/SF2upKBS

The police themselves showed no signs of wanting violence or caring about the tent – it was all fellow protestors

2nd time by man who kept repeating “I’m a combat veteran” as he tried to forcibly rip the tent down as we defended it non-violently

I was twice threatened w violence today – once by a woman who ran to call the cops when anarchists put up an unauthorized tent

“Politicians should wear uniforms like race car drivers so we can identify their corporate sponsors” http://t.co/cA3tzEW5

They also insisted the cops were on our side, were “part of the 99%” Didn’t seem to understand what they feel as individuals is irrelevant

1

Apparently the excuse was they told the cops they’d only put up one tent, and we were endangering people as the cops might attack us

Sigh – major drama at #OccupyAustin over anarchists putting up a second tent. One woman tried to turn them in to the cops

we’re “tired of playing by the rules and getting nowhere.” Indeed. http://t.co/VDh8Jyvs

Frustrating: cops have scared off homeless for now but plan is to set up camp with white people so the cops’ll hold back & they can return

Austin’s another world. Second hippy I’ve seen with sign “Ron Paul Love Revolution” http://t.co/jIHmE01h

Worse than I thought – some on Internet had been condemning homeless for “hijacking” #OccupyAustin!! Fortunately most in solidarity

Austin anarchists erecting first tent for now relocated homeless tent city across from City Hall http://t.co/rgGBqmpb
