#workers parade

[newyorkthegoldenage]

May 1 is International Workers' Day in more than 80 countries. In the U.S. in the 1920s and 1930s, socialist and Communist groups celebrated it, too. Here, women march in a column with upraised fists in a parade on May 1, 1935.

Parade workers at Disneyland expressed concern over being asked to resume hugging visitors during the pandemic, while facing allegations of inadequate wages and work conditions.

The Actors' Equity Association will represent the workers in discussing improvements to health, safety, wages, benefits, working conditions, and job security.

Disney cast members' dreams came true as they formed a union to address concerns such as injuries from costumes and erratic schedules.

I would totally go to a sanitation workers parade, not just because they deserve it, but also because of the festive things they could do with their trucks.

Thousands of spectators cheer as over a quarter of a million marchers show support for the National Recovery Administration (NRA) in a parade on Fifth Avenue on September 13, 1933. The NRA was part of Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal to institute industry-wide codes intended to eliminate unfair trade practices, reduce unemployment, establish minimum wages and maximum hours, and guarantee the right of labor to bargain collectively. The NRA ended when it was invalidated by the Supreme Court in 1935, but many of its provisions were included in subsequent legislation. The NRA flag, at the left, is the symbol of a Blue Eagle with the motto "We do our part." This view is looking north at 42nd St.

"QUIET MAY DAY PARADE DRAWS 3,000 MARCHERS," Winnipeg Tribune. May 2, 1934. Page 5. --- Police Confine Efforts To Removing Provocative Banners ---- May Day passed quietly in Winnipeg, with a parade of some three thousand demonstrators. Despite the original police ban of the parade and subsequent permission to hold it, there was no trouble.

It was a big parade and well organized. Long before the official starting time, the Market Square was filled with men and women, who listened to speakers standing on trucks. There were many banners carrying such slogans as "Down with Imperialistic Wars" and Hands Off the Soviet Union." Chief Newton, however, quickly banned all such slogans, and ordered that none be carried in the parade except those bearing simply the names of organizations.

One parader who carried a banner attempted to elude the police. He rolled it up and did not unfurl it till the parade was under way. He unrolled it on Main st., but his triumph was short lived. A husky constable pulled him out of the line, and the offending banner was put away.

Begins Promptly Promptly at 7 p.m. the head of the parade moved off from Market Square, and by 7.20 the last of the marchers had left the Square. They marched south on Main st. to Portage, west to Vaughan st., south to Graham ave, and east to Main st. By 7.50 p.m. the head of the parade was again moving into the Market Square. There speakers again addressed the parade for half-an-hour.

Special detachments of police were on hand in case of trouble, but it never materialized, After the parade, speakers hurled defiance at capitalism and Fascism.

Taking a prominent part in the events were Alderman Jacob Penner, Communism's first representative on the city council since the defeat of W. Kolysnik some two years ago, and Andrew Bilecki, of the school board.

Children Cheer Lustily Children, more than 500 strong, in red caps, carrying red flags, sang and cheered with the greatest enthusiasm.

Infants in carriages and perambulators were much in evidence, as in previous years. One tot, aged about 18 months, was possibly the happiest me member the entire parade.

Sitting in his perambulator, with his little red cap, he smiled gayly as he waved a red flag with a small red-mittened hand.

Most of the children went home when the marchers congregated in Market Square for the speeches, but it was from the ranks of those in their early 'teens that the most vehement speakers were conscripted.

Labor Day is a reminder that every job, big or small, is essential. Keep shining, you hardworking stars! 🌟

Today is the international labor day, or Mayday. This day is a holiday in most parts of the world, but not the United States. Why is that?

May 4th, 1886, Chicago. Workers were demonstrating in support for a new 8-hour work day standard. The

Demonstrations were at the start of it all peaceful. When the police tried to disperse the meeting, some unknown person threw a stick of dynamite at the police. The explosion and retaliatory gunfire caused the death of 7 police officers and 4 civilians, with dozens injured.

8 anarchists were charged with the bombing, and all of them convicted of conspiracy. The juditiary system did not have a solid case against the anarchists but convicted anyway. 7 were charged with the death sentence and the last one got 15 years. It is generally accepted fact that none of the anarchists threw the dynamite.

Grover Cleavland was concerned that having labor day on may 1st would strengthen socialist movements too much and therefore signed another date into law in 1894. This is why the American labor day is in september. He did not want people to be reminded of the day 11 people died to institute a 8 hour work day.

The 8 hour work day never materialized(well, it did but not until the new deal in 1933), and may 1st was chosen to honor the unjust sentencing of the anarchists, and the year after, the first Mayday was held.

All laws and regulations have been forged in blood, and nearly every time the bosses and business leaders have decried regulations. If we don't get to use child labor, we can't afford to operate. If the workday is reduced to 8 hours, profits will shrink. If we allow union meetings to take place, they will ask for too much and we'll be forced to close down. Yet, every time regulations have passed, the businesses continue to operate. For every pay increase that would put the Bosses in the poorhouse, profits have continued to rise.

Do not believe their lies, they'd rather you risk your life working with a dangerous machine for pittances and throw you out when their machine have injured or killed you than decrease profits by a tiny, tiny amount. Your lives are worth less than profits in the eyes of these ghouls. They will continue to kill our brothers and sisters unless someone stops them. Unless you unionize. Unless you demonstrate.

Pride banned Jews?!?

So it's that time of year again that I see people circulating stuff that is completely fabricated about what they imagine happened at Chicago Dyke March in 2017.

First, Dyke March is not Pride. It is not meant to be apolitical or single-issue. It is explicitly anti-imperialist, anticapitalist, and, yes, antizionist. It's not the big mainstream pride Parade that has corporate sponsors (and ads for gay tourism in Israel), it's a small radical grassroots demonstration.

Ok now that that's out of the way, they did not "ban Jews". I was there. They did not "ban Jewish symbols". They did not ask anyone to leave because of their Jewish pride flag.

What actually happened was three women who turned out to be employed by Israeli pinkwashing operation A Wider Bridge participated in the march with a rainbow flag that featured a blue star of david in the center. I remember seeing it and disliking it bc it gave me Zionist vibes but neither I nor anyone else bothered them about it.

After the march there was a cookout in the park. The women were asked to leave by a Jewish member of the Dyke March Collective after several hours of hanging out at the cookout because they were harassing other marchgoers.

Immediately publications like Forward, Tablet, JTA, as well as more mainstream publications started running stories making wild untrue claims which you can still read if you Google it because none of these were ever corrected or retracted. It's clear that these AWB agents had press releases pre-written and ready to fire as soon as they managed to provoke any reaction that they could spin into a controversy.

The photos that ran along with these headlines were also misleading. One of them showed a photo of a rainbow flag with a white star in the center. The star on the flag I saw was blue, and the shade of the star has specific political connotations. Showing a different flag with the politically significant color removed is extremely misleading. The one that was carried in the march (and which, again, wasn't banned!) looked like this:

Another banner image, this one in a New York Times article, showed a young woman with dark curly hair holding a sign that says "this is who we are". She was clearly chosen to feature because of her stereotypically Jewish features. The article implies that she is one of the supposedly banned Jews. This is false. You know how I know? Bc that was the friend I was there with that day! She does not identify as Jewish, she looks like that bc she is Italian, and she had no idea she was being photographed!

I had a hat decorated with red and black stars of David, and the following year a bunch of us wore Workers Circle sashes with Yiddish text (which uses the Hebrew alphabet) as well. No one who wasn't employed by a Zionist organization was asked to leave or even questioned about anything related to Zionism or Jewish identity.

I'm resigning myself to the fact that this is going to get dug up and passed around every year and people will believe what they want to believe, but if you hear claims that some queer group "banned Jews" or something similar, please look at the source for the information and if possible try to talk to actual Jewish people who participate in the community events being discussed. And if you hear this about Chicago Dyke March in specific, please correct people. I feel like I'm going insane when this many people are insisting that what I saw and experienced wasn't real and pointing to the barrage of misleading articles as what I should believe over my own experiences.
