(CNNi) – A block away from the New York Stock Exchange, a few dozen Occupy Wall Street organizers show up to work every day at an office building in the heart of Manhattan’s Financial District.

Posters featuring Occupy slogans hang on the office walls.

Groups of people cram into the small conference rooms for strategy sessions. The office space appears to be the movement’s nerve center. But the volunteers who plan future actions, network with other Occupy protests and deal with logistical issues, insisted the location is not Occupy Wall Street’s headquarters.

"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."
