    Hi, I'm Sean, I've been a part of Occupy Cincinnati since October 9. Since then I've found a sense of purpose that I've longed for my whole life, I've made beautiful friends with people from all walks of life, and I feel like there is in sight, a right for so many wrongs I've so long felt. I've become enchanted with the idea of consensus in so many ways, for me it is the heart of this movement, it's grandest idea, and it's most unifying element.
    I'd love to answer any questions about Cincinnati or anything else.
    I would also like to ask a favor. I want to put together some educational resources for myself and the rest of OC. Please refer me to some good books/essays/articles, preferably online, regarding the banking system, fractional reserve banking, the derivatives market, the bailouts, corporate crime, etc. I think the success of this movement depends on educating people, myself included.
    Thanks!

    Well that's a very reasonable request. I'm sure someone here can help you. I'm not the best guy for online research, but I've run into some good people in here. Give it a minute, and thank you for getting out and getting involved. It's all the difference in the world.
