From the WSJ:
"It's double-edged," said David S. Meyer, a sociology professor at the University
of California, Irvine. "It means you have people trying lots of different things and
somebody can come up with something really clever. But it also means it's harder to
brand and make sense of." While Oakland, in particular, has a long history of using
port shutdowns to send a political message, that approach doesn't necessarily resonate
as strongly elsewhere, Mr. Meyer said.
