'Occupy' Marks 1-Year Anniversary

Posted: Updated:

NEW YORK (AP) - Protesters are converging near the New York Stock Exchange and in more than 30 other cities worldwide today to mark the one-year anniversary of the Occupy movement.
    
The Occupy movement spread across the nation and across the globe, and there have been protests organized in the name of ending foreclosure, racial inequality, stop and frisk and debt.
    
But the movement has since died down, and mostly lives through a smattering of websites and social networks.
