Kritik
"The book is very successful in conveying the urgency of OWS and similar movements in the 2011 wave of the 'movements of the squares'. member. ... Holmes' book serves as an important reminder that there is still light in the dark, showing that these movements can be a wellspring of democratic inspiration at a time when liberal representative democracy is in deep crisis." (Anastasia Kavada, Social Movement Studies, February 28, 2024)

"Marisa Holmes is an organizer and educator from Brooklyn, New York. Her book Organizing Occupy Wall Street (Palgrave, 2023) is part personal testimony, memoir and critical analysis of this epic social movement and its immediate aftermath. She also made a documentary with the OWS Media Working Group called All Day All Week - An Occupy Wall Street Story. The subtitle is an interesting one: This is Just Practice. ... Holmes dives deep into the New York practices." (Maia Ramnath, The Institute of Network Cultures, networkcultures.org, December 18, 2023)

"Occupy Wall Street (OWS) was a two-month occupation of Zuccotti Park in lower Manhattan in 2011. ... Throughout the book one gets the sense that what occupiers most wanted from the experience was a sense of community. ... I found a lot of new words and new ideas in this book. The ref- erences for each chapter are at the end of each chapter. At the end of the book is an index and a glossary." (Jo Freeman, H-Net Reviews, h-net.org, December, 2023)mehr
