[OccupySheffield] [Wall St A&C] Red Pepper - Please Comment / Diffuse

[gan golan]

Thank you for this, Mark. I know this is a UK focused piece, but here in
the US the clergy have been a solid member of occupy movement  from the
beginning, and now, a new front is about to open up, lead primarilly by
Black churches.

Just recently, Rev. Jamal Bryant in Baltimore invited the folks at Occupy
Baltimore to work with him, and then declared his 10,000 member strong
MEGA-church a part of the Occupy Movement. That's a huge development. And
this is just the beginning.
