TOPIC: May Day, celebrated on May 1st, commemorates the Haymarket Affair of 1886 and was designated as International Workers' Day by an international federation of socialist groups and trade unions in 1889. May Day is now observed in many countries as a day to commemorate the historic struggles and gains made by workers and the labor movement.
Come join the People's Music Network for an evening of songs in honor of workers who put their bodies on the line (often on the picket line) to win fair and just labor practices, the right to join a union, and other worker rights.
