May Day in T-Town
· Posted Tuesday May 1, 2007 by jamie
May Day is upon us. And aside from twirling around Maypoles and such, it is a day to celebrate the working class and labor movement, the heart and soul of Tacoma, the United States, and the World.
Here in Tacoma, King’s Books, in partnership with local grassroots labor group America in Solidarity, will be holding a May Day Celebration this evening. Festivities are from 6:30-9pm. The new documentary Battle of Local 5668, telling the story of workers affected by a West Virginia aluminum plant lockout, will be shown at 7pm. The celebration will also include music and comments from local leaders.
Details from King’s Books.
Note: The picture? Totally not from Tacoma. I just thought it looked cool…
