workers unite!

boston. international workers day. even in the current situation, as working people- mostly the middle class- are rapidly loosing power and wealth to those who have more, i never feel more jazzed about my country than when i see people freely taking to the streets to bitch about it! ha! i, and most of those pictured here, are in this for the unions, collective bargaining, immigration reasonableness (and red and black outfits!) the band, the haymarket martyrs, and the art below are from bread and puppet. http://breadandpuppet.org/ photos by me and e rasmussen.

mayday makes me think about communism and socialism. glen e. friedman posted this famous (but dry) essay on socialism by albert einstein.

a few days later he posted this (impassioned!) "rebuttal."
