Video: Monrovia's KGEM-TV Visits 'Occupy L.A.'

Monrovia's public access cable station traveled to downtown Los Angeles to document the "Occupy L.A." protests.

Community Media of the Foothills Executive Director Lance Mungia and KGEM-TV talk show host Ralph Walker spent a day over the weekend documenting the "Occupy L.A." movement downtown.

The two traveled to Los Angeles City Hall Saturday to talk with participants and shoot footage of the protests against income inequality in America. Mungia said on his blog that he was inspired by the peaceful spirit of the protesters.

"We spoke to young people, to middle aged artists and executives alike, people of all races, all beliefs, some more conservative, some more liberal, all joined by the realization that the status quo cannot sustain itself and will only be changed by those with the voice to change it," Mungia wrote.
