2011 mass protests shared tactics across continents against the global 1 percent.
Evidence
If they are waiting for a politics of maneuver, when all the locals, in every part of the world, will all stand up at the same moment and go in the same direction, and roll back the tide of the global in one great historical activity, it is not going to happen. I do not believe it anymore; I think it is a dream. In order to conduct the politics really, we have to live outside of the dream, to wake up, to grow up, to come into the world of contradiction. We have to come into the world of politics. There is no other space to stand in. — Stuart Hall, Essential Essays, Volume 2, 261 (
