BERKELEY – The Occupy Berkeley encampment was evicted “with a whimper” last Thursday, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Today I photographed what remains: this guy (above), who appears to be sitting in front of a Bank of America branch on the corner of Shattuck and University Avenues all day, every day. When we were driving back from Occupy Oakland tonight, he was there, sitting in the dark. He has a tent out there, clearly labeled “Occupy Berkeley Tent,” but it appears to be more symbolic than anything else. The man said he naps in it for a few hours every now and then.
