People around the world celebrated May Day, International Workers’ Day, on Thursday, including hundreds of thousands in the United States. Unions and immigrant rights groups led rallies from coast to coast, in every state, with much of their anger directed at the Trump administration. Workers and activists in New York demanded workers’ rights, freedom for Palestine and protections for immigrants. Democracy Now!’s María Inés Taracena spoke to some of the marchers as they took to the streets. “It’s just giving me a huge boost of hope that we’re going to get over this authoritarian scheme and we’ll come out on top,” said Barry Knittle, a protester in New York.
