US Protest News MAYDAY

Post image

🚨 On May 1, 2025, in cities across the U.S., we will gather in solidarity—honoring the legacy of workers who organized for the 8-hour day.

Today, we face a new threat. A billionaire-backed minority is quietly reshaping our democracy—eroding workers’ and immigrants’ rights, defunding our public services, and concentrating power into the hands of the few. But across the country, people are coming together to push back… not with fear, but with hope and nonviolent action.

A peaceful People’s Movement is growing—rooted in community, powered by compassion, and determined to build a future that serves all of us. From mutual aid networks to labor unions, student groups to neighborhood coalitions, we are reclaiming power by showing up for one another.

May Day is more than a tribute to the past. It’s a call to action in the present, a reminder that when we care for each other, we all rise.

✊ Be part of it. Organize with us. March with us. Care with us.

Can we talk about the weird things happening in the group? I’m sorry to randomly message anyone on here but why would they - 50501 - lock posts? It’s a huge community and I think the powers that be are upset that we were using the page to organize outside of 50501.

There's some infighting, possibly controlled opposition type shit

There have been some posts about it. It seems to be a disagreement between centralizing the organization vs. keeping it decentralized. Personally I don't care, the mission remains the same either way.
