May Day greetings


from a bludging PhD student. There's a history of May Day, a collection of songs, and links to events around the world here. I wish I could make it to Blackball this weekend...

Blackball? Museums always make me nauseous. I'd rather be at Huanuni, Bolivia, where the workers are throwing around dynamite sticks to win control of a massive tin mine. When they expropriate this mine and all other capitalist property in Bolivia, they can plan to use the tin for socially useful purposes like electric buses and trains.

you guessed it. (I dedicated the one about Parihaka to Justin.)
