Protests are starting up against bank bailouts and for bank nationalization at A New Way Forward, April 11. Rallies have already gotten started, but we need more and bigger! Progressives have a chance at changing the corrupt system that got us into this mess. Everyone needs to get in on this — progressives need to own this.

Last week, we launched the first nationally-coordinated grassroots protests to break the power of the banks set for April 11. There are already over 20 protests planned in a grassroots effort in major cities across the country. We’re calling for Congress to break up the banks and ensure that future banks never get so big again — we want to see structural reform to our failing economic system. We think these protest can really tip the scales.

The right is really owning the anger on the bailouts — they’re eclipsing the possibility of any progressive structural reform that Obama himself supports. We need everyone’s help to jump on board. We actually have a reason to be mad!

There’s a protest in Augusta, ME, Hartford, CT and Boston, MA  We’re asking people to clog the machines — line up at ATM’s or be a part of the largest outdoor phone banks to members of Congress on weekend minutes.
