While we share similar motives and ideologies as Occupy Wall Street, Occupy Charlottesville and those that partake in the community have their own beliefs, values, and demands. We agreed at General Assembly on the following core values:
->social and economic justice
->Cooperation with each other
->Mutual Respect; regardless of race, religion, political ideology, ethnicity, etc.
->non-violent with
each other
->Trust
We have also agreed as a group to be committed to non-violent action. This means -
->we do not condone violence
->we do not condone physical harm of any kind
->we do not condone property damage
->we expect members of the occupy Charlottesville group to behave with respect and engage others with respect
These core values stand in all interactions, both in person, verbally, and in written communication. page Delete/Ban Guidelines
