Come to the lovely San Francisco Bay Area for MayDay! We're having summer weather (bring a sweatshirt), and we have a famous tradition of fabulousness, labor activism, and
of course an active anarchist scene.
Mayday Convergence: Autonomous Festivals of Resistance
Week of Resistance In Many Forms, Celebrating Mayday
May Day: Anti-capitalist Convergence & Autonomous Festivals of Resistance
is a week-long series of direct actions, demonstrations, marches and
celebrations to oppose Global Capitalism and all forms of oppression. A
variety of events will take place in the San Francisco Bay Area from April
26th to May 1st. The convergence continues the centuries-old tradition of
May Day as a time of celebration of the Earth and human creativity. May
Day has been an Anarchist and pro-worker holiday internationally since the
general strikes of 1886. For a more complete schedule of events,
