DESCRIPTION:This June's "Green Sunday" will feature Dan Siegel, the noted civil rights 
 attorney, talking about the effects of the Occupy movement on our civil 
 rights and civil liberties. Already our movement has been facing attacks on 
 our right to protest and the militarization of our local police forces. We 
 look forward to an informative talk and a lively discussion on how to 
 respond.\n\nRecently, during legal proceedings between the Regents of the 
 University of California and the Gill Tract Farmers Collective, Dan Siegel 
 gave a presentation to the Court about “Occupy the Farm” in 
 Albany:\n\n“When defense lawyer Dan Siegel spoke, he made no argument as 
 to whether or not the Farmers had or had not entered the land in question, 
 though he did note that there was no evidence that several of the named 
 parties had been on the land. Rather, his argument rested on the contours 
 of the land itself, whether or not the land is ‘private’ or 
 ‘public,’ and the charge that the UC has the means to remedy the 
 problem without seeking injunctive relief from the Court. “I am amused by 
 the characterization of the property as private property,” Siegel said. 
 “Unless something remarkable has happened in the last 48 hours, the Gill 
 Tract is no more private property than this courthouse is. The Regents are 
 stewards of public property, they do not own the property,” Siegel 
 said.”\nSee:
