Occupy Houston Prints Newspaper—Self-Starting And Working With Others Is The Occupy Wall Street Ethic
The first edition of the Occupy Houston newspaper is out.
This is indeed the spirit. It is up to each of us to be self-starters, and to work with others for the good of the nation and of the 99%.
You can pick up a copy of the paper at Occupy Houston at Tranquility Park.
Occupy Houston will today be at the Egyptian consulate and at the Houston Galleria for Black Friday.
Here are some details of the Egyptian consulate protest--
Friday November 25th, 2pm-5pm 5718 Westheimer Road , Suite 1350 Houston, TX 77057
Please, come and stand for Egypt freedom against brutality in Egypt. Stand for future of Egypt.
The Galleria event will be at 5:30 PM in the mall.
Here is the Occupy Houston website.
You can also find these Occupy efforts on Facebook as well as an Bryan-College Station Facebook page.
Let’s be hopeful, creative, and hard working.

Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.

The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.

I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.

The newspaper is pretty good. Talked briefly with the editor tonight.
Probably not a good idea to announce the Galleria action on a public website. They were waiting for us and turnout was low anyway because so much chaos was going on at Tranquility because of the rain. We did have fun standing at the Westheimer/Post Oak intersection and waving at cars, so not a total loss. I had fun, at least.
BTW, Occupy Houston needs a laptop or two. The media center and live streaming video are gone.

Bacopa–I had seen the Galleria announcement on the Occupy Houston website and wondered the same thing. Since it was there I figured it was out. You’re caught between wanting a decent crowd on one hand and pulling off what you want to get done in the Galleria. It’s all okay. It’ll take whatever form it takes so long as we stay the course.
I wonder why they didn’t use a union print shop.
That is an excellent point. I will ask about that.
