We Are Many
WeAreMany.org
Percy Bysshe Shelley's famous poem, "Mask of Anarchy," is a powerful call to action for the oppressed and exploited of the world to organize together against tyranny and injustice, which we feel well expresses our own motivation for collecting the resources in this site:
Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number –
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you –
Ye are many - they are few.
There are so many voices and so many struggles scattered across the planet (and the internet). WeAreMany.org attempts to gather these voices "in unvanquishable number" into a site that can offer a platform and, we hope, inspiration for action. The obstacles activists face today, like those faced by workers and the oppressed in Shelley's day, are great. But our numbers are greater, and with solidarity and unity we can hope to begin to make changes in the systems we oppose.
Featured videos include:
Capitalism: A Ghost Story, with Arundhati Roy and Siddhartha Deb, a discussion of the book examining the dark side of democracy in contemporary India.
