Suburban "Occupiers" come to Newton

Occupy Boston was recently evicted from its downtown campsite, leading to speculation and questions about where the movement will go without a physical epicenter. But organizers in the suburban towns of Needham, Natick, Newton, and Lexington say the eviction of Boston’s protesters may come as a kind of bittersweet boon, a reenergizing moment for the out-of-city Occupy. Occupy Newton protesters gathered in front of a Bank of America in Newton Center this week.
