It's the 15th anniversary of Occupy Wall Street. In our latest, we talk with scholar Michael Gould-Wartofsky (@mgouldwartofsky.bsky.social) about the conditions that led to the emergence of Occupy, the two months that occupiers held Zucotti Park in lower Manhattan and the lasting effects of the movement on U.S. politics.
Guest Bio// Michael Gould-Wartofsky became involved in Occupy as a doctoral candidate at New York University. He photographed its protests, took notes about meetings and marches and conducted 80 interviews of activists in New York and across the world. He is an award-winning writer, scholar, editor, and educator, who studies the sociology of social movements and the politics of resistance through a critical realist lens.
He is the author of The Occupiers: The Making of the 99 Percent Movement (Oxford 2015), and the forthcoming Resistance: Field Notes from the Frontlines, 2016-2025.
