Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The Occupy Movement that protested income inequality reached the peak of the movement towards the end of 2011 because of the on-going consequences following the 2008 economic crisis. The common people were affected by the 2008 crisis and the frustration was expressed through the Occupy protests against economic and social injustice.
