What is OccupyBurners?
Posted on November 24, 2011 by Kit O'Connell
OccupyBurners is run by the consensus of its membership. We are still new, and working to find our place within the Occupy
Wall Street movement. As our first collective act, our membership has reached consensus on the following definition.

Occupy Burners Is:
Inspired by the global Burning Man community and its ethics.
Non-Violent. We support civil disobedience and passive resistance but notviolence against people or others property at our
actions.
Non-Partisan. We do not endorse any political candidates or parties.
Non-Religious, though our members have diverse religious and spiritual beliefs or none at all.
Dedicated to encouraging more Burners to get involved with their local Occupation.
A Global Network of Burners using their diverse skills and experience to aid Occupy Wall Street.
A chance to make the default world a little more like the playa.
Occupy Burners Is Not:
Endorsed by the Burning Man Organization.
A call to protest or Occupy Black Rock City.
Just for people who have been to the Black Rock Desert.
An excuse to divide Occupiers. We are all one Occupation, Burners and Non-Burners alike.
A Joke. We seriously want to help Burners help OWS.
All serious. Our revolution includes dancing, costumes, art and theatrics. Laughter is powerful.
We have knowledge and skill sets to share, as do other Occupiers. It's just as important that Burners listen, and learn, as
it is that we share our skills.
Agreed to by the members of OccupyBurners on November 25, 2011
