Another despicable death. Another brilliant light taken away. Dr. Adnan Bursh, the head of orthopedic surgery at al-Shifa hospital in Gaza was kidnaped four months ago by the Israeli military. Dr. Bursh was detained at Ofer prison, and has now been reported dead while imprisoned. Killed at the hands of the Israeli military who tortured him to death while in custody.

#CincoDeMayo is a day where many come together & enjoy Mexican culture and cuisine. Remember to recognize the people who put the foods we love on our tables. As you enjoy your favorite Mexican dishes today, thank the farm workers for the hard work they do every day! #WeFeedYou

Today we celebrate the birth of Pete Seeger. Pete Seeger wasn't just a folk singer—he was a voice for radical change. Over a career marked with success and influence, he also was blacklisted because of his politics, but he overcame!

Happy Birthday Karl Marx! As we reflect on Marx’s birthday, we recognize his enduring legacy and tireless struggle for a better world. His dedication to pursuing working-class power continues to inspire all those who continue to fight for justice and equality.

[Shawn Fain @ShawnFainUAW]

Our union has been calling for a ceasefire for six months. This war is wrong, and this response against students and academic workers, many of them UAW members, is wrong.

[Nitty Gritty Club of Oakland CPUSA @CPUSAOakland]

Let’s make this a May Day to remember.

We join millions in their struggles against exploitation and oppression, in an end to the genocide in Palestine, and in building working class power everywhere. The power of the people is in collectivity and united struggle. #IWD24

[UAW 4811 @uaw_4811]

Last night, students and workers protesting peacefully at UCLA for justice in Palestine were physically attacked by a group of 100+ counter protesters. UC’s failure to protect students and workers is an abdication of its responsibility. UAW 4811 members are mobilizing in response

[Shawn Fain @ShawnFainUAW]

The UAW will never support the mass arrest or intimidation of those exercising their right to protest, strike, or speak out against injustice.

[Left in the Bay @leftinthebay]

Happy International Workers' Day! In the Bay Area, the first May Day in 1890 was celebrated with a picnic in Emeryville's Shellmound Park, organized by the carpenters' and joiners' unions. These unions, who were already powerful locally, demanded (and promptly won) an 8-hour day

This International Workers' Day, we celebrate the strength and solidarity of the labor movement and our historic year of building worker power across the country – and we renew our call for worker justice around the world. #MayDay
