Raise Your Voice on May Day

Raise Your Voice on May Day
Thu, 4/26/2012

This May Day, use your voice to change to inspire others with the May Day Convergence Choir. The organizers of the project are gathering singers to perform a new song based on the Ubuntu phrase, “I am who I am because of who we are together.” Groups of 20 to 30 singers each will meet in different locations near Madison Square Park at 5:30 p.m. and will begin singing the melody while making their way to the designated central location. As the groups merge together, the power of everyone’s voices singing together as one will surely delight and empower those watching. After a minute or two, each individual will head off in a different direction, while still singing, until they can no longer hear anyone else singing the same song. It should be a very moving experience, so download the score and get involved at maydaychoir.tumblr.com (and if you're planning on participating, please be sure to RSVP!).

Journalists have a responsibility to plainly tell the truth about how truly different the Democrats and the Republicans are today, especially with both democracy and the rule of law at stake this November.

From Hungary and Poland to Italy and Spain, today's anti-abortionist movements are feeding one another—while also driving a growing counter-movement.

Agriculture, the service economy, sexual exploitation, manufacturing, construction and domestic work drive today's enslavement around the world.

Thanks to the Electoral College, leftists have perhaps the final say this November over whether democracy can hold on for at least another four years, or if fascism will take root and infect all facets of the federal government for decades to come.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

History shows there are no “one-day” dictatorships. When democracies fall, they typically fall completely.
