Seattle WTO Protest

I studied an indepth article by Newsweek writer Carlo Versano, Director, Politics & Culture. He studied the WTO protest and resistence in 1999 in Seattle washington, and why it succeeded and the protests going on in Mineapolis aren’t. He then interviewed the Director and Editor of the YouTube clip, which showed media responses to the 1999 Seattle protests.

Why is this important? And it is very important. If we, Austin Texas do not want ICE Agents in Austin this is how to prevent it. There were nation wide anti ICE protests yesterday, including one that started at UT then from the capital down congress. This is meaningful on a national level, but not focused on preventing ICE Nazis in Austin. First the clips then I will wrap it up as to how we can prevent ICE in Austin Texas.

If you wish to study this isue, the clip is on YouTube WTO/1999. The link below that is his article in Newsweek, followed by his interviews:
