The demonstrators consider their next step, via Nation writer Wen Stephenson:

There's a discussion of sorts going on about whether to hold the space on Broadway or keep going. #FloodWallStreet pic.twitter.com/wdrIzdj5VN

Tune into the rally via live stream at one of these feeds:

11.49 EDT

The protesters are walking among stopped traffic down Broadway (against traffic). “Whose streets, our streets!” they chant. There are barricades blocking the sidewalk from the street. In this case the barricades are keeping the marchers on the street and off the sidewalk.

11.46 EDT

The marchers have left the park and are headed toward the financial district.

They chant: “We’re changing up the system, we’re changing up the plan. We colonize [?] the water, we colonize the land.”

The protesters are “walking the wrong way on Broadway against traffic,” according to live streamer StopMotionSolo.
