Zack de la Rocha of Rage Against the Machine has written a poem to show his support for the ongoing Occupy movement. Rage, for their part, made an attempt to occupy Wall Street back in 2000 when the band attempted to enter the New York Stock Exchange and security officers denied entrance to the band and entourage. Frontman de la Rocha was shoved away from the entrance after briefly entering through a side door. Soon city police moved in to secure the building. Most of this appeared in the band's video for "Sleep Now in the Fire".

de la Rocha's last studio recording was One Day As A Lion's 2008 debut: One Day As A Lion.
