Here is a repost of our May Day episode from 2021. In it, we talk about the history of May Day from pagan rituals to the Haymarket Affair to International Workers’ Day to Labor Day and Loyalty Day. And we discuss how the ruling class’s “war on the left” fits into the politics of May Day vs. Labor Day. Spend an hour of your International Workers’ Day hearing about the history of May Day. You won’t regret it. --------------------------------------------- Outro// "Green and Red Blues" by Moody Links// 🛠️ IWW: The Brief Origins of May Day (https://bit.ly/2QLtO7Q) ✊ G&R:How Labor and Climate Movements Are Building An Enduring Alliance w/ Jeff Ordower and Norman Rogers (https://bit.ly/4cDK9AU) 💚 Support the Green and Red Podcast 🎉 Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast ☕ One-time donation: https://bit.ly/DonateGandR 🎙️ Follow Green and Red 🔗 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast 🌐 Website: https://greenandredpodcast.org 🌍 Our Networks 🎧 Labor Podcast Network: https://www.laborradionetwork.org 📢 Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: https://linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork 📻 Listen on WAMF (90.3 FM) New Orleans: https://wamf.org 💫 LIVE Green and Red Podcast Event on May 21st in Berkley: " Radicals, Realists, and Repression: The State of Activism in the U.S. " (RSVP here- https://bit.ly/3QFR1XO) 🎬 A Green and Red Podcast production 👨🏫 Produced by Bob (@bobbuzzanco) and Scott (@sparki1969) ✂️ Edited by Scott 🔔 Subscribe for more analysis on U.S. politics, leftist strategy, and anti-establishment resistance.
