Cuban workers in their hundreds of thousands lined the streets Havana today for the annual May Day march. Year on year Cubans show their defiance to US pressure to abandon the Cuban Revolution. This year the brutal US embargo on the Caribbean island enters its 6th decade. https://t.co/XEPE7BGJ4N
Happy May Day to all.

Happy May Day to everyone but Jeff Bezos, the second wealthiest man in America worth $150 billion, who announced today that Amazon is ending paid sick leave for workers with COVID while he is in line to receive a $10 billion bailout to blast off to the moon.
Today is May Day.
Today the union movement is reminded of our history and traditions and therefore our responsibility in campaigning for social justice, peace and solidarity.
Long live May Day! https://t.co/UOphCLzhHa
I dedicate May Day to my Mother. She was a min wage worker for 23 years + fought through 3 years of sexual harassment, intimidation and 2 elections to win her union. It changed our lives. She passed 7 years ago today. Mom would tell you to be brave and organize. Get your union.
In May 2017 @PresJGZuma was prevented from addressing the May Day Rally
Today, 1 May 2021 at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium, it was President @CyrilRamaphosa's turn.
Workers told him that he simply does not care and they told him in close range to leave.
How things quickly change
