BECAUSE OUR STRUGGLES ARE ONE.

We are all united: the system that declares unionized workers bad for business is the same system that decides human beings are a commodity. It's also the same system that causes students to graduate college with so much debt that they must chain themselves to a career in something they despise, rather than pursue their passions. It's the same system that sends it's young men and women overseas to fight unjust wars for empire, profit and power. It's the same system that measures the value of people by what they consume and the value of artists by how much they sell. It's the same system that believes you can put a price on a sustainable planet.

May 1 marks the coming of Spring: a time of rebirth and new possibilities. For over a century, May Day has been known as International Workers Day, a day where the 99% — workers throughout the world and that includes veterans — have united to fight their common exploitation by the 1%.
