May Day
Watch International May Day Rally
The event will be streamed from 14 countries in 6 languages, simultaneously translated to English. We will hear from revolutionary socialist leaders in the workers movement around the world — from Europe to Latin America and the United States — about the current situation in their respective countries and the need for a socialist, internationalist response to confront the crisis. We are coming together this May Day to say: we will not pay for this crisis!
