The Chesapeake May Day Workers Over Billionaires Rally will be held from 11 am to 1 pm on Friday, May 1, at 638 Battlefield Blvd N. Sign up via Mobilize at https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/932972/At this event, we encourage you to bring signs with the phrases below. Or something advocating for immigrants, disabled people, and/or other groups of people, these billionaires, and the government are insensitive and uncaring to.
When billionaires break every rule... it takes all of our collective strength to stop them! Our Demands for May 1st:
-TAX THE RICH, FAMILIES COME FIRST.
- NO ICE. NO WAR.
- NO PRIVATE ARMY.
- DEMOCRACY, NOT CORPORATE CONTROL.
- HANDS OFF OUR VOTE!
Together we will show our unity through a day of marches, rallies, and actions, including...
- NO WORK.
- NO SCHOOL.
- NO SHOPPING.
SAFETY: We highly recommend you bring any medications, sunscreen, snacks, and drinks. Importantly, we must stay on sidewalks. If you get tired, you may sit down or walk over to a local business. Finally... be sure not to crowd areas, especially with your vehicles.
MASK/DISABLED SAFETY: This event considers people with weakened immune systems or immunocompromised individuals, so if you can, please wear a mask. However, if that's not an option, we'll have masks handed out at the event. Furthermore, if you really can't or don't want to wear a mask, we will have people to guide you to the other corner of the sidewalk, where it'll be the same event, just separated for safety.
Please note: A core principle behind all our events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
(This event is NOT hosted by Virginia Beach Resistance.)
