SUMMARY:CANCELED DUE TO STORMS!  May Day Strong: We are the Many
DESCRIPTION:Join Indivisible Knoxville in solidarity with co-sponsors Showing Up For Racial Justice 865, AKIN (Allies of Knoxville’s Immigrant Neighbors), Indivisible Blount County, National Writers Union, and United Campus Workers.\n🆘WE are watching a live-time transfer of wealth from the bottom to the top. WE are telling them it stops here and now.\n*WE are working people and WE are building this country’s future. Everyone deserves good jobs, reliable services, and a fair economy-but Trump, Musk, and their billionaire buddies are destroying livelihoods, gutting public resources, and driving up costs just to pad their own pockets. • WE are rising up because our lives, our families, our public schools, and our health care are worth fighting for. The things you hold precious are absolutely on the chopping block for Trump, Musk, and congressional Republicans. • WE are drawing on the legacy of our labor and community movements to create a better future for us all. WE have a winning record against billionaires who try to corrupt our democracy, target our families, and destroy our dignity. • WE are reclaiming our power, and WE will not be intimidated. WE demand a new era and WE are standing up for it.\nAcross the country—from fruit fields in California to classrooms in Chicago, from kitchens in Queens to loading docks in Atlanta—working people are rising up. WE are demanding a country that puts our families over their fortunes—public schools over private profits, healthcare over hedge funds, housing over homelessness.\nMusk, Trump and their fellow profiteers are trying to create a race to the bottom—on wages, on benefits, on dignity itself. They want to erase labor rights, break our unions, and silence immigrant voices.\nMay Day 2025 WE are standing united. WE are organizing for a world where every family has housing, healthcare, fair wages, union protection, and safety—regardless of race, zip code, or immigration status.\nThey’re defunding our schools, privatizing public services, attacking unions, and targeting immigrant families with fear and violence. This is a war on working people—and WE will not stand down.\nThis May Day (Saturday May 3rd) WE will turn the page. This is the beginning of a new era—one where working families lead, immigrants are protected, and no one is left behind. This is not charity. This is not a request. WE are reclaiming our power from corporate elites, and WE will not be intimidated by Trump, Musk, or their billionaire backers. They’ve ruled for too long. Their time is up.\nSTOP THE BILLIONAIRE TAKEOVER. WE ARE THE MANY. THEY ARE THE FEW. THIS IS MAY DAY. JOIN US.\nWhere: WE will muster at the Veteran’s Memorial in the World’s Fair Park then walk to the intersection of Henley St, Western, and Summit Hill\nWhen: Saturday May 3rd @12pm\nPlease follow this link for a detailed map with legend of the May Day event meeting location, walking route, placement by mobility, parking options, and locations of public restrooms:\nMay Day information map 03MAY2025 -May Day information map 03MAY2025 – https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=17rb1AR3adh_jTuY2tvY3zz4AHOYKY3Y&usp=sharing ( https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=17rb1AR3adh_jTuY2tvY3zz4AHOYKY3Y&usp=sharing )\nAlso note that in Knoxville, a handicapped driver can park in any municipally owned or leased parking lot or metered space for the maximum allowed time without charge, as per Knoxville’s Code of Ordinances.\nIt’s going to be a busy weekend in downtown Knoxville, so if you are local you may want to consider taking public transportation or ride with a friend!\nPlease register here:\nhttps://www.mobilize.us/mayday/event/777212/ ( https://www.mobilize.us/mayday/event/777212/ )\n
