Interview Questions by Jeff Juris
1) How would you characterize the racial, class, and gender dynamics at Occupy Boston?
2) Does the movement reflect the actual diversity of the 99%?
3) If so, can you elaborate on how this is so?
4) If not, what are some of the obstacles?
5) What kinds of things have and/or can be done to increase the participation of traditionally marginalized groups who are most affected by the issues addressed by OB?
6) How has OB addressed privilege and oppression and what do you think of these efforts?
7) Have you experienced, seen, or heard about incidences of racism, sexism, or homophobia in the camp? If so, how were these handled?
8) What has been the relationship between community-based organizations that mobilize traditionally marginalized groups and the wider OB movement? What has OB done to build these links and what might be done going forward?
