| New York, December 17--After the arrests in Trinity Church's vacant, unused lot, OccupyFaith progressive clergy who support OWS's bid to use the lot on a temporary basis as a forum for protest and dialogue spoke out in Du Arte Square. "Our Voices Need Space" was inscribed on the ground in giant letters. December 17 is the third-month anniversary of Occupy Wall Street, Bradley Manning's 24th birthday, and the one-year anniversary of Mohammed Bouazizi's setting himself on fire in Tunisia in response to repressive regulations that did not allow him to operate his food cart and make a living--an act which set off a wave of protests in Tunisian and throughout North Africa.
