Hello, Friend,
I heard back from the May Day Team via Indivisible and they are encouraging people to protest online if they can’t make it in person this Thursday May 1st. There’s also a virtual online rally on April 30th you can attend before the big day.
These are the official hashtags:
#MAYDAY2025 #MAYDAYSTRONG
Wondering what to post online? Memes, poems, rants, essays, photos of you holding your sign, photos of your pet with your sign, songs, monologues, videos, interpretive dance, art, crafts…it’s your protest, do what ya wanna do!
But…please…do something. Anything. Stand up. Speak out. Stand for something. Be on the right side of history. This is the moment. Do it for your kids, your grandkids, your nieces and nephews, your friends, your neighbors, your co-workers, your fellow citizens!
Yes, it’s scary. I get it. I ask myself why I’m writing here every day, if it matters, if it’s worth the risk. I can’t sit back and be silent with this much at stake for so many people, for this country, and for the future of everything.
Silence is complicity.
If not now, when?
If not us, who?
What do we say to the Crapistocracy?
“The power under the Constitution will always be in the people.”

More info from the May Day Team:
“May 1, or May Day, is internationally recognized as a commemoration of workers' rights and the labor movement. On May Day 2025, we are calling on our government to ensure that every family has housing, healthcare, fair wages, union protection, safety, and due process under the law -- regardless of race, zip code, or immigration status.
Mayday is also a universal distress signal. On May 1, we shout together "Mayday, Mayday!" because our schools, our courts, our public services, our voting rights, and our civil rights are under attack by the Trump administration.
E PLURIBUS UNUM.
STOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. THIS IS MAY DAY. JOIN US.”
