Thousands march in Oakland to defend Occupy movement

Click here to access article by Jerry White from World Socialist Web Site. This writer provides a good worker point of view on the events in Oakland during the general strike. However, he only mentions "general strike" in passing and puts it in quotes. I think this is largely due to the rather sectarian slant that this website has to any left events that it doesn't control.

Meanwhile, mainstream ruling class media focuses on the late night violence that occurred as in this report by Voice of America. In contrast, see this very good report regarding the late night violence.

Naked Capitalism's site provides a very interesting report more in sympathy with the protestors.
For minute by minute reports of the events, see this report from IndyBay.
