Police officers shot tear gas into a crowd of hundreds of protesters from the group Occupy Oakland on Tuesday night, The San Francisco Chronicle reported. The protesters were trying to re-enter an area outside of Oakland City Hall that police had cleared of their encampment on Tuesday morning. Much more after the jump!!

Oakland police say they have arrested 85 people while clearing an anti-Wall Street protest in front of the City Hall that had grown into an encampment. Protesters have been camping for two weeks at the Frank Ogawa Plaza, the site of two weeks of "Occupy Wall Street" protests in the centre of Oakland, California.

The Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street movements show that simply standing together can achieve real results. The Arab Spring initiated a jarring series of events in 2011 that illustrate the radical political possibilities of just being present.
