Let's Be Super Allies: Three Paths to Allyship

And such a reaction is understandable! Discourse surrounding allyship can be complex, especially because most of us are part of more than one community—a cis Black woman, for example, may want to stand up for her trans sisters in the workplace, but isn’t sure where to start, because she knows the misogynoir she experiences isn’t exactly the same as transmisogynoir.

The Future of May Day: What Does the Holiday Mean for Workers' Rights and Social Justice in the 21st Century?
Introduction: Briefly explain the history of May Day and its association with workers' rights and social justice. May Day has its roots in the United States and dates back to the late 19th century when workers in Chicago organized a strike demanding an eight-hour workday. The strike culminated in the Haymarket affair, which led to the deaths of several workers and police officers. In response to this tragedy, the International Socialist Congress declared May 1st as International Workers' Day, a holiday to commemorate the struggle for workers' rights and social justice. Since then, May Day has been celebrated by workers around the world as a symbol of their ongoing struggle for better working conditions, fair wages, and social justice.
