"I’ve heard versions of “no one cares”, “no one is doing anything” and “nothing came of it” for all my activist life. ... #Change happens in complex, sometimes unpredictable ways, that it often unfolds with slow and indirect consequences, and that what ends up in the centres of power often begins in the margins and shadows."

#NYC continues to rise to the occasion.
#Arkansas antifascists are holding events all over the state this weekend and this month. Red state resisters kick ass!
@heidilifeldman #MayDayStrong #Denver waaaay south on Broadway. If these folks can get out there, you bet you can too! #resist #HandsOff #50501movement
A good sized crowd turned out in Anchorage, Alaska on a cool, drizzly night to protest the destruction of our democracy. #Alaska #Anchorage #Protest #MayDay #50501movement
Protesters in Salt Lake City #Utah were out today! Man, what a great sign this lady has. I had not heard that Senator Booker said that, but how true. How very true.

I live near a big city and have been driving into downtown for some very big protests. In an encouraging sign, for #MayDay I didn't even need to do that. Our town had its own protest, and we took over a bridge! It was a respectable crowd for a town this size, especially considering there were multiple #protests in the area.
Of course, it was pro worker, pro immigrant, and generally anti Trump, so we represented a long list of causes. I repped #Ukraine.
Holy CRAP, look at the #MayDay crowd in #Milwaukee!
The people of Milwaukee keep showing up for democracy!
Way to go #Chicago! Represent!
When an erstwhile software developer attends a protest...
(Please no comments on the typography...I know a proper coding typeface should be monospace, especially for Python, but if I may channel Fermat, the sign was a bit too narrow...)
How will you celebrate #MayDay this year?
I know the #50501Movement isn't perfect, but they have been doing a pretty good job of getting folks out to protest against many of the policies that signal the rising tide of fascism.
Consider joining a protest in solidarity today.

Let's all hit the streets for democracy today! It'll be my 17th protest since early February and I'm still here. I'll be out there with my Ukrainian flag, yelling the chants and taking pictures of any protest dogs.
This is the only way to safety for us and the world.
Please find an event:

If you cannot protest in person there are online events too:

#Protest day in the #USA, best hashtags to follow are #50501movement #50501protests and also #NoKings #HandsOff
And a tip - I know that people on Mastodon don't like it: You get a much better coverage of the actions on Bsky, where you also find more organisation of #protests. There you see photos in real time.
Join us tomorrow in San Jose to stand up for workers' rights, our communities, and our democracy!
The rally will start at Story & King, then march down to San Jose City Hall - join at either end, or along the way,

Comes with a stake to use as a yard sign, or you can use it as a protest sign and use the wooden stake for self defense if you see Stephen Miller.
Can't you just hear the music in your head?
