Community
Monday, May 1, 9am-8pm, four different times and locations in Columbus
The Central Ohio Worker Center is hosting its fifth annual May Day celebration. This year, we will show that Columbus is a #SolidarityCity by standing with immigrants, workers, and students fighting for justice. City officials and corporate leaders continually refer to Columbus, Ohio as an “#OpportunityCity” while we know that opportunities are only available for the few; low-wage workers, people of color, and others from front-line impacted communities are left out.
