As we all know, May 1st was "A day without an immigrant," an attempt on immigrants to show how important their role is in daily lives.
Here is the article in the New York Times:
In another source I found these facts, that I thought were interesting:
- There was a demonstration in NOLA.
- McDonald's in Baltimore and Washington gave their employees (about 3000) permission to go out.
- Perdue Farms announced that half its factories were closed.
- Some students did not go to class either.
There are a lot more examples that are worth noticing, so take the time to read into this! It should be interesting to see how this all turns out. Personally, I completely support the idea behind the demonstrations, and hopefully it will not backfire.
