Members of New York City's Turkish community gathered in Zuccotti Park near Wall Street on June 15 to protest the Turkish government's bloody crackdown on peaceful protesters in Taksin Square that day. What began as an effort to preserve a small park in Istanbul has become a national campaign against Turkey's increasingly authoritarian Islamic government, with Turkish activists staging daily demonstrations in front of the Turkish consulate. Greek anti-austerity activists joined the Saturday action, declaring that the Greek and Turkish people were united in the struggle for democracy.

Solidarity Demonstration for Gezi Park – Taksim Square, Istanbul, Turkey
Taksim ist überall! – Taksim is everywhere
#occupygezi
About 2.500 people took to the streets in Hamburg to show their solidarity with the protesters in Turkey.
Solidarity from Zuccotti Park to Gezi Park. Occupy Wall Street and members of New York City's Turkish community gathered in Occupy's old base in Zuccotti Park near Wall Street on June 8 to protest the Turkish government's bloody crackdown on peaceful protesters. What began as an effort to preserve a small park in Istanbul's Taksim Square has become a national campaign against Turkey's increasingly authoritarian Islamic government. In New York protesters mount daily demonstrators at the Turkish Consulate demanding the resignation of the Erdogan government and a halt to state violence.
Images from the project 'The Taksim Square Book Club' which looks at one aspect of the so called 'standing man' protest held in Taksim Square in Istanbul, Turkey. Public reading and informal education has been a notable part of the protest since the earlier days of the movement whilst the material of many of those who chose to stand is reflective, in part, of the thoughtfulness of those that have chosen this motionless protest to express their discontent.
"A woman reads a book by Irvin David Yalom, an American existential psychiatrist, titled When Nietzsche Wept (Nietzsche Nietzsche AÄladıÄında in Turkish) in Taksim Square, Istanbul".

Eyüp Sultan Mosque & Abu Ayyub al-Ansari's Cemetery
The Eyüp Sultan Mosque (Turkish: Eyüp Sultan Camii) is situated in the district of Eyüp on the European side of Istanbul, near the Golden Horn, outside the Walls of Constantinople. Built in 1458, it was the first mosque constructed by the Ottoman Turks following their conquest of Constantinople in 1453.
The mosque rises next to the place where Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (Turkish: Eyüp Sultan), the standard-bearer of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, is said to have been buried during the Arab assault on Constantinople in 670. His tomb is greatly venerated by Muslims, attracting many pilgrims. Some of the personal belongings of Muhammad are preserved in the tomb.
