Protests are scheduled to take place across the United States Thursday as May 1 is seen by many as a day for demonstrations across the nation.

May Day is known to some as a spring holiday within the pagan tradition, one associated with rebirth, maypole dances and a May Queen presiding over festivities. But May Day, as invoked by protesters, is tied to the history of the labor movement.

Protests under the “50501” movement – short for 50 protests, 50 states, 1 movement – in response to the Trump administration’s flurry of moves over its first 100 days are set to take place across the country Thursday for May Day.
