Why does it seem like every day is May Day?
Well, today actually is May Day, and there are marches all over the land. The National May 1st Movement for Worker and Immigrant Rights has the meeting time and place for each city where a march is planned. The largest turnouts are expected in New York and Los Angeles.
There's an impressive list of cities:
- Tijuana, Mexico
- Tuscon, Arizona
- Davis, California
- Los Angeles, California
- Modesto, California
- Romoland, California
- San Diego, California
- San Francisco, California
- Denver, Colorado
- Chicago, Illinois
- Louisville, Kentucky
- Boston, Massachusetts
- Chelsea, Massachusetts
- Detroit, Michigan
- Minneapolis, Minnesota
- Las Vegas, Nevada
- Elizabeth, New Jersey
- Buffalo, New York
- New York City
- Charlotte, North Carolina
- Raleigh, North Carolina
- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
- San Antonio, Texas
- Yakima, Washington
- Madison, Wisconsin
- Milwaukee, Wisconsin
The Troops Out Now Coalition exhorts those involved in the antiwar effort to lend their support to the May Day immigrant worker marches. It's a good idea. If you live in one of these cities, please join the march. And if you don't, use your imagination...
