May Day, also known as International Workers' Day, is a public holiday celebrated on May 1st in many countries around the world. It is a day to commemorate the struggles and achievements of the labor movement, and to celebrate the rights of workers.
The origins of May Day can be traced back to the 19th century, when workers in the United States began to organize for better working conditions and wages. In 1886, the American Federation of Labor (AFL) called for a general strike on May 1st to demand an eight-hour workday. The strike was met with violent repression by the police, and several workers were killed.
In the aftermath of the Haymarket Affair, as the events of May 1st, 1886, became known, the labor movement around the world adopted May 1st as a day to commemorate the struggles of workers. In 1889, the Second International, a worldwide organization of socialist and labor parties, declared May 1st to be International Workers' Day.
Today, May Day is celebrated in over 80 countries around the world. It is a day for workers to come together and celebrate their achievements, and to demand better working conditions and wages. May Day is also a day for political demonstrations and protests, as workers around the world continue to fight for their rights.
In the United States, May Day is not a public holiday. However, it is still celebrated by many workers and labor unions. In recent years, May Day has seen a resurgence in popularity as workers have begun to organize for better working conditions and wages.
