Workers and Allies Barnstorm Verizon Shareholder Meeting
Members of the 99% Power coalition disrupted Verizon's annual shareholder meeting in Huntsville, Ala., six separate times today. In each instance, a group of protesters interrupted the proceedings using “Mic Check” tactics, followed by chants such as “Shame on you!” “Verigreedy!” and “People over profit!” After each occurrence, the chanting group was led out by security people, with many in the audience applauding them. There were no arrests.
