We Are the 99 Percent

We are the 99 percent. We are getting kicked out of our homes. We are forced to choose between groceries and rent. We are denied quality medical care. We are suffering from environmental pollution. We are working long hours for little pay and no rights, if we're working at all. We are getting nothing while the other 1 percent is getting everything. We are the 99 percent.

20 and can’t go to college.

Had my future planned out. I got good grades and my parents had good jobs. Go to college and find a good job myself.

Parents lost their jobs. Forget college. Now I work 45 hours a week with an hourly wage… I still had to move out of the studio I was renting with a roommate.

Now I’m back at home and helping support a family of 5.

I am the 99%
