May Day, also known as International Workers’ Day, saw a series of protests at the state capital on May 1. Organized by a coalition of labor, immigration, and native advocacy groups, the rally emphasized the connection between workers’ rights, immigration rights, and indigenous rights. Some of the groups gathered included Aurora Unidos CSO, Grupo Tlaloc, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, and the Denver Chapter of Students for a Democratic Society.
The rally was held in conjunction with the “Day Without Immigrants” protest that highlights to role of immigrants in American society.
