May Day.

Millions of workers across the country are expected to walk off the job, skip class, and refuse to shop today as part of the mass action known as “May Day Strong.” The demonstrations are a direct protest against the Trump administration, rallying around calls to “tax the rich,” “abolish ICE,” and “no to war.” Correspondents file reports from the sites of the rallies.

Guests: Gerardo Guzmán, Reporter, Atlanta, GA; Araceli Martínez, Reporter, Los Angeles, CA; Artemio Arreola, Political Director, Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, Chicago, IL; Rossanna Longo Better, Reporter, Denver, CO; Elvia Díaz, Reporter, Phoenix, AZ; Larry Kleinman, Political Analyst, Radio Poder, Woodburn, OR; Francisco Ríos, News Director, KDNA, Granger, WA.
