Video - In the Face of Washington’s Threats, U.S.-Cuba Solidarity Strengthens
https://peertube.world/w/cPJQYNcH1wR2arxFcVLt3Q

[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

Duration - 8:01

While Washington doubles down on its economic war on Cuba, one young activist from Minneapolis packed his bag and flew to Havana. Lavish came not despite U.S. aggression, but because of it, to show #solidarity with the Cuban people.

On #internationalWorkersDay, Lavish was joined by Josué, a young Cuban researcher who has been attending May Day marches since he was a child. The two come from different worlds, but found common ground in Havana.

Cuba is living through one of its hardest economic moments in decades. And yet, there are people in the #US who choose to show up anyway, to stand alongside a people they believe deserve dignity, sovereignty and the right to live without the threat of war or foreign intervention.

Lots of good discussion today despite the weather. Happy #MayDay everyone. I hope you found some time to plug in to #TheStruggle in your area, take heart in the company of comrades, and help build a little hope and courage near you.

If you don't like Unions then we'll just keep all these workers' rights if you won't be needing them anymore.

Nel giorno del Primo Maggio, la realtà in Iran resta drammatica: oltre 700.000 bambini sono costretti al lavoro, privati dell’istruzione, esposti alla violenza e impiegati in attività pericolose. Un nuovo rapporto denuncia una tendenza allarmante: l’utilizzo di minori in ruoli di sicurezza.

For #InternationalWorkersDay, here's a short article that I wrote for the Fair Vote Toronto newsletter about worker's rights. My fellow volunteers made the graphics and helped publish it.

Welp. The day is just about over. A handful of students on our Reddit sub posted some cynical, snarky comments where usually we have a couple of young, enthusiastic democratic socialists posting. Not sure what that was all about. But I hope wherever you are working, attending, or graduated from had a most excellent and productive day.

You will eat (You will eat) bye and bye (Bye and bye)
When you've learned how to cook and how to fry (and bake a pie!)
Chop some wood, 'twill do you good
And you'll eat in the sweet bye and bye (That's no lie!) #mayday #InternationalWorkersDay

Is May 1st a day off where you live?

#InternationalWorkersDay #MayDay

All the agonies you suffer
You can end with one good whack
Stiffen up, you orn'ry duffer
And dump the bosses off your back #mayday #InternationalWorkersDay

Happy International Workers’ Day 🚩 A time to celebrate our fellow workers and stand up for Labour rights - dignity at work, equality, fair income and safe working conditions. 💪

RT by @EUCYPRUS: Today is #InternationalWorkersDay.

Women are more likely to face poverty, due to less job opportunities & lower employment rates and unpaid care work.

To create better opportunities for all, we will adopt our first-ever Anti-Poverty strategy on 6 May.
