May Day


Today is International Worker's Day, and according to the television this morning, people are marching for worker's rights and migrant rights.
There aren't any marches going on in our town, but there are restaurants closing down for the day, and a buying boycott, and students staying out of school. For those folks who can't get out of work or school, they're asking that they wear white t-shirts in solidarity, and refuse to buy anything.
I don't have any money, so there's not much chance I'd be buying anything anyway, and it's too warm to put me in a t-shirt, but I'm going to shout my choodle shout of solidarity: Si Se Puede!
