Why do we celebrate International Workers Day, Labor Day or May Day

International Workers Day. We always remember the sacrifices of those heroes that took up arms in service of their country and fought in wars. Today is the day we remember a different sort of hero. The ones that did not take up arms, but instead put their lives at risk standing up for their own countrymen at home. Defending the weak against those that would exploit them without guns on their side and often were faced with guns and threat of violence or death. These are true heroes in every sense of the word. They stood up to the bosses and monied elite in striking to demand fairness and withstood financial hardship, arrests, violence and even death to win our rights that we enjoy. Now we must also be ready to strike to stand up to the monied elite that are working to erode those rights. This is not an easy road. The easy road brought us to this juncture as so many forgot the truth these heroes taught us and follow the siren song of the cult of greed. It is time for solidarity with the workers of the world.
