Anarchism - Emma Goldman May Day Remix
Channel: Non Serviam Media
Date: 2020-05-01

Just a little something different to get those May Day juices flowing.

“At the International Socialist Congress held in Paris in 1889 the decision had been made to turn the first of May into a world-wide holiday of labour. The idea caught the imagination of the progressive workers in every land. The birth of spring was to mark the reawakening of the masses to new efforts for emancipation. In this year, 1891, the decision of the Congress was to find wide application. On the first of May the toilers were to lay down their tools, stop their machines, leave the factories and mines. In festive attire they were to demonstrate with their banners, marching to the inspiring strains of revolutionary music and song. Everywhere meetings were to take place to articulate the aspirations of labor.”
-Emma Goldman, Living My Life, 1931

We may not want to be taking to the streets right about now, but that doesn't mean it's not May Day.
