We're back at it! Come one, come all. Join us for our 12th Annual May Day March & Rally as over twenty local community groups and organizations join families and workers to take to the streets in unison. We will march from the Historic Commercial Center District to the Lloyd D. George Federal Courthouse where we will rally in celebration of International Worker's Day and demonstrate in solidarity with workers, immigrants, & those with a vision for a better, more peaceful world. Rally to feature entertainment and guest speakers (TBA).

Traditionally, May Day has been celebrated as the International Day of the Worker every year on the first day of May. Tracing it's history back to the 1886 protests for an eight-hour working day in Chicago's Haymarket Square and the broader movement for worker's rights during that era, in many countries throughout the world "May Day" is officially recognized as the true original "Labor Day."

RALLY AT FEDERAL COURTHOUSE 6:30-7:30PM

FAMILY-FRIENDLY, WATER TO BE PROVIDED.

Tradicionalmente, el Primero de Mayo se ha celebrado como el Día Internacional del Trabajador en todo el mundo. Trazando su historia, este movimiento empezó con las protestas de 1886 en la Plaza Haymarket en Chicago, para conseguir derechos fundamentales de los trabajadores como las ocho horas de trabajo. En muchos países de todo el mundo el Primero de Mayo es reconocido oficialmente como el original Día de los Trabajadores.
