Take to the streets on May Day!

May 1st is International Workers Day, also known as May Day. Since 1886, it has been celebrated with demonstrations demanding justice and freedom for all oppressed people. In the United States, the tradition of May Day was revived by the immigrant rights movement, which brought millions of people into the streets in 2006 demanding legalization and full rights for all immigrants.
