NEW YORK—Occupy Wall Street’s weekend of events aimed at reviving its lost vigor continued through Monday around Liberty Square and Zuccotti Park. The group was celebrating its anniversary and its progress at taking a stand against economic inequality, but experts say the movement needs to do a lot more than a repeat of last year.
An amalgam of a couple hundred gathered at Zuccotti Park around lunchtime. A man with fake bills glued over his suit shouted to a passing tourist bus, “Welcome to New York;” another held an immigration sign; while one raised an incoherent poster expressing his pride at being a “redneck.” Amid the motley crowd stood a political science professor.
