the Interns Eye

This week we filmed part of the Occupy Wall Street movement march. It was held in downtown Chicago , in front of the federal Reserve Bank, Bank of America, and the Board of Trade is where we set up our camp. We were meet by hundreds may be thousands of protesting people from across the area. The protest became very heated. At one point the streets became unpassable. So many of the protesters decided to just sit down in the middle of the street. They began to shout NO more cuts No more cuts. the more they shouted the more response  they got. The entire area was flooded by people, car,  buses, etc.
After a lengthy period, the chicago police department decided they had had enough an began to warn the protesters, to move along. They refused to move as ordered. After not responding to the police request The protesters were removed by force Some arrested others just removed. We tried to interview to from both prospects . Many of the pro testers were willing to talk. However we found very few big business people will to share their views
