This is Elana explaining why she's going to participate in the Occupy Wall Street National Day of Action. On Thursday November 17th, the two month anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement, the movement calls upon the 99 percent to participate in a national day of direct action and celebration.

Via OccupyWallStreet:

"Enough of this economy that exploits and divides us. It's time we put an end to Wall Street's reign of terror and begin building an economy that works for all. We will gather in Liberty Square at 7:00 a.m., before the ring of the Trading Floor Bell, to prepare to confront Wall Street with the stories of people on the frontlines of economic injustice. There, before the Stock Exchange, we will exchange stories rather than stocks."

Activities planned for the entire day, check here for the details.
