luigivampa asks:

What do you think about the lack of cooperation between the American centred Occupy movement and the European/global Take The Square and Democracia Real Ya networks? (As exemplified by the recent OWS plan for a ‘global strike’ on the 1st May despite TTS’ plan for the same action on the 15th May). Do you think the message of “real democracy now” of the DRY/Indignados movement has been lost in the Americocentric Occupy movement?

Naomi Wolf responds:

I think that this was probably due to people working two jobs, being overscheduled etc rather than any strategy.But it certainly goes to the need for a good strong global Occupy communications hub. We are also really in a media bubble here and miss a lot of globali nformation. I have heard a rumor of new global Occupy communications hubs being created and promise to report as they emerge.

Jasper’s comment

I thin Naomi underestimates the problem here. All american initiatives are bubbling up from individual occupies like osmosis. Occupy Oakland called for the May 1st strike. OO has no mechanism for coordinating with national or global movements.
