Occupy Austin returns to City Hall on anniversary of eviction

Occupy Austin returned to the City Hall plaza Sunday, the anniversary of a successful police effort to break up the group’s encampment.

Originally formed in solidarity with the Occupy Wall Street movement to protest the growing income gap in America, the profits of large corporations and the influence of money in politics, the Occupy Austin group Sunday displayed many of the trappings of their four-month-long presence in front of City Hall: tents, protest signs, a megaphone, a food table and slogans written in chalk on the plaza.

Protesters would not say Sunday whether they planned to stay the night or how long they wished to remain there. An Austin Police spokesman said there were no plans to break up the group as long as they remained a “peaceful protest.”

“There was all sorts of craziness that occurred a year ago today,” said Azzurra Crispino, an Occupy Austin member. She called the police department’s move to clear out the encampment last year “fascist, illegal and immoral.”
