From Anchorage to Albuquerque, Los Angeles to Des Moines, and up and down the Eastern Seaboard, thousands of educators and their allies took to the streets on May Day (May 1) to raise their voices in a powerful chorus of defiance and hope. Marchers rallied against immigrant raids, billionaire tax breaks, attacks on workers and educators, and deep cuts to public education—many driven by policies and rhetoric from the Trump administration.
In cities across the country, protesters carried signs like “Protect Workers, Not Billionaires,” “Everyone is Welcome Here,” and “Defend Democracy,” as chants rang out in English and Spanish, “¡Sin miedo!—without fear.”
The powerful display of solidarity proved once again that educators will always speak out. We’re making so much noise, the public and press are taking notice!
May Day ... Nationwide!
