It is very exciting that many unions, community groups and individuals are joining together this spring to organize on behalf of the 99% for the future of our country. The deaths of Trayvon Martin and many others to racial profiling and violence highlight the urgency of economic justice, equality and peace.
As a part of this great effort, the People's World in Connecticut is hosting its annual celebration of International Workers Day on Sunday, May 6 at 4:00 pm at the Peoples Center, 37 Howe Street, New Haven. Please mark your calendar and help make the day a big success.
The program will include a slide show of May Day Around the World and solidarity messages from Connecticut workers resisting corporate greed on strike, in contract negotiations or organizing drives
A
Labor-Community Organizing panel will place experiences in the
on-going struggles for jobs and union rights, ending racial profiling
and attacks on women, ending the wars and taxing the 1% into the
context of the 2012 elections.
Music performances will inspire and unite us. A home made buffet and a raffle will round out the family day. Tickets are $5 or what you can afford. No one will be turned away.
