Ever Wonder WHO the "DREAM DEFENDERS" Are?

They "sat in" FL Gov. Scott's Office for One Month

"Established in 2012, Dream Defenders (DD) seeks to promote “social change” by “training and organizing youth and students in nonviolent civil disobedience, civic engagement, and direct action.” The long-term goal is to cultivate “a new generation” of young radical activists.

DD is backed by, and commonly collaborates with, such groups as the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). In January 2013, for instance, DD, the ACLU, and the SPLC together held a community town hall meeting in Tallahassee “to discuss the issue of keeping our children in the school system and out of the juvenile justice system.”
DD's leaders have deep personal ties to a variety of left-wing groups and causes. For example:

• DD co-founder and current executive director Phillip B. Agnew is a paid SEIU organizer.
• DD political director Ciara Taylor serves as an ACLU campaign coordinator and was formerly a community outreach liaison for the SPLC.
• DD organizer and self-identified socialist Gabriel Pendas is also employed as a “lead organizer” by the SEIU, and once served as president of the United States Student Association.
• DD director Nelini Stamp, who was previously an organizer for the Working Families Party and Occupy Wall Street, candidly declares that “we are actually trying to change the capitalist system we have today because it’s not working for any of us.” In a November 2012 piece which she wrote for Prospect.org, Stamp lauded the organizing efforts of the Midwest Academy, a pro-socialist training organization that teaches radical activists the tactics of direct action, targeting, confrontation, and intimidation."
