The /c/unions community kept getting non union general labor interest posts and shockingly there are not really many general labor focused communities on Lemmy. So I've made one here.

Brett Wilkins May 01, 2025

" Hundreds of thousands of #workers rallied from coast to coast Thursday to mark International Workers' Day with spirited demonstrations supporting labor rights and protesting President Donald #Trump's "billionaire agenda" and attacks on the rule of law, #unions, #immigrants, #Palestine defenders, transgender people, and others.

Rallies took place in hundreds of cities and towns across the United States in what the #MayDayStrong coalition, which led the day of action along with the 50501 movement and others, called "a demand for a country that invests in working families—not billionaire profits." "
