BAIL OUT WORKERS, NOT BANKS!!
EQUALITY FOR ALL WORKERS!!

May Day, or International Workers' Day, occurs on May 1st. It is a holiday originally founded in the United States and that is celebrated all over the world but not here. The day commemorates the Haymarket Massacre of 1886 where working people, demonstrating with a demand for the eight-hour day, were fired on by police. Many were killed and the leaders of the march were framed and hung. Since then, celebrations and demonstrations have been held world wide on May Day to uphold the fight against oppression and exploitation wherever they occur in our highly segregated and highly unequal society.
