CALL TO ACTION

May 1st is International Workers’ Day

We march on May 1st to show our solidarity with working people everywhere. This includes immigrants, women, indigenous people, poor people, queer people, trans people, and people of color.

We march on May 1st to commemorate those who came before us to demand dignity on the job, those who came together to win such rights as the 8-hour day and the weekend. Today we continue to fight as these rights slowly slip away.

The Industrial Workers of the World believe that all workers can come together to create a better tomorrow. We believe in abolishing the wage system and empowering workers to take control of their jobs and their lives.

“We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old!”

Join us on May Day as we march and declare: An Injury to One is an Injury to All!
