NEW YORK -- There are many things to protest against in the world, and people rallying against a fair number of them took to one of New Yorks iconic squares on May Day as part of nationwide rallies in celebration of the traditional workers holiday.
Signs against fracking, post office closures, JP Morgan Chief Executive Jamie Dimon, corporate America, deportation, the Gang of 8 immigration bill, and naughty bankers were just a few of those being paraded about on a sunny afternoon at Union Square, as a bunch of Raging Grannies wearing flowered hats prepared to take the stage. Puppets of rats were expected to arrive later in the day.
A amalgamation of Occupy protesters, immigrant rights groups and labor advocates organized events throughout the day in New York, beginning with a morning rally organized by Occu-Evolve, an offshoot of the Occupy Wall Street movement that seeks to represent the 99%. The days New York schedule also includes a meeting of people who want free education, a march to a post office in Chelsea and an immigrant rights rally in the late afternoon.
Few protesters seemed to mind that so many different causes were being represented at the New York rally.
Were protesting a million things, said Lillian Pollak, 98, one of the Raging Grannies, who said she was rallying for world peace, against corporate America and for closing detainee centers at Guantanamo Bay.
The atmosphere of the protests, concentrated in one area of the park, cordoned off by police barriers from where other New Yorkers ate lunch and held shopping bags, was circus-like at times. People waved giant flags and wore tutus and clothing made of protest signs. An event titled Resistance is Fertile: Love Bomb Seed Bombs was expected to bring plant seeds and yet more protesters......
