MKE DSA at May Day March
MKE DSA at May Day March
May 1, 2026 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Voces de la Frontera, 733 W Historic Mitchell St, Milwaukee, WI 53204, USA
In-person | RSVP here
Worker power is the core to winning a socialist future. May Day is International Workers' Day and unions across the country are joining the call for a general strike in 2028. If we want the first ever nationwide general strike to happen, we need to make the case this year for what's possible. We're joining the Voces de la Frontera march to call for the abolition of ICE, citizenship for all, and an economy that works for all. Join the DSA contingent Friday morning!
Because we are not hosting this event, we cannot guarantee that all accessibility standards on the Milwaukee DSA In-Person / Hybrid Meeting Checklist (based on the Accessibility Standards for Meetings) will be met. This event requires a multi mile march and several hours outside on sidewalks and streets with variable level of care, and the speed of the march depends on factors outside of our control.
