Taking to the Streets for May Day

By

02-IMG_7961.jpgThousands of trade unionists, immigrants, occupiers and others marked May Day this year with a rally and march from Union Square to City Hall. The PSC contingent included Lolly McIver (left), a former faculty member in ESL at BMCC and Medgar Evers College, and her husband Jim Perlstein (right), co-chair of the PSC Solidarity Committee. Participants in the march called for passage of a just and comprehensive immigration reform in Congress, an end to the politics of austerity and for the City of New York to negotiate in good faith with its municipal unions, all of which are currently working without a contract.
