The May Day Protests’ Common Concern Across Michigan

May Day protests Detroit bring workers, immigrants, and unions together to demand fair wages, rights, and justice

In several dozen countries around the world, May 1st is celebrated as International Workers’ Day. It commemorates the historic struggle for the eight-hour workday and the broader pursuit of better working conditions for the working class, everywhere, that is, except officially in the United States. This commemoration stems from the Haymarket Massacre in Haymarket Square, Chicago, on May 4, 1886, the culmination of a series of protests that had been ongoing since May 1 in support of striking workers demanding an eight-hour workday. Since then, thousands of people in various cities have taken to the streets to demand better working conditions, including the workers in this country. 

Michigan was not the exception.

Demonstrations in Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, and Detroit drew hundreds of people last Friday afternoon. Janitors, nurses, teachers, retirees, anti-Trump protesters, and members of other sectors once again gathered and marched together in unity, under the slogans “Money Out of Politics,” “Healthcare for all”, “Workers Over Millionaires,” and “ICE Out.”

“Here we are,” said UAW Region 1A Director Mark DePaoli to several hundred who gathered at Roosevelt Park in Detroit. “140 years later, and we’re still fighting for the same things. We got the eight-hour workday, but in reality, we still fight that every day in the form of forced overtime, and I know some of us out here got healthcare, but for the overwhelming majority, it’s unaffordable and unattainable.”

In Grand Rapids, around 250 people called for justice for immigrant workers at the May Day rally in Garfield Park, organized by Movimiento Cosecha. The demonstration was not limited solely to Friday afternoon. Between May 1 and May 3, Movimiento Cosecha organized a series of community events to reaffirm their demands that the City of Grand Rapids and Kent County adopt sanctuary policies, implement an economic boycott, and call for the abolition of ICE.

In dozens of cities across the country, demonstrators also rallied to support workers. Although most of these demonstrations were peaceful, some led to arrests by the police. In California, the San Francisco police arrested 25 people while some protesters filled a roadway at San Francisco International Airport. In New York City and Washington DC demonstrations also received police response.

DePaoli joined the call to defend immigrants and other minorities who have been the target of the Trump administration. “They tell us that the immigrants coming across the border are stealing your job, and they’re to blame. The gay couple down the street is the reason your healthcare costs are so high,” he said. “Let me tell you something, immigrants aren’t stealing our jobs, and gay people don’t raise the cost of health care.” 

The demonstration was initially organized by union labor and organizations such as the Metro Detroit AFL-CIO, the UAW, and others. Elected officials and candidates also attended the Detroit demonstration, mingling with the crowd rather than delivering lengthy speeches. U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (MichiganD-12), State Sen. Stephanie Chang (D-Detroit), U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens (Michigan D-11), U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, State Rep. Dylan Wegela (D-Garden City), and U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar (Michigan D-13) were among the crowd. 

While a billboard in front of the park called for an end to the war against Iran in Thanedar’s name, he was met with chants of “Shame” and “Free Palestine” from some protesters while he was chatting and greeting some demonstrators.

Senator Chang took her opportunity to speak to the crowd to bring up the threat faced by immigrant workers who are being arrested by immigration agents either when going out to work, while working as a taxi or delivery worker, or when returning home.  

“While families are being ripped apart and children are traumatized by out-of-control immigration enforcement, at the same time, we know that Michigan workers are struggling to make ends meet and are fighting to form a union, and are just trying to get a fair contract.”

Eventually, after a long series of speeches, activist groups led the march to the McNamara Federal Building via Michigan Avenue. At the federal complex, there were more speeches calling for the protection of immigrants; they also drew attention to the war agenda pursued by the Trump administration instead of benefiting the working class.

“Americans at home struggle to afford rent, healthcare, and basic necessities,” said Noor, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement.

“We are told there’s no money for housing, healthcare, or education, but somehow there’s always enough money to kill our families in Palestine, Lebanon, and Iran.”

Dr. Seydi Sarr, founder of the African Bureau of Immigration and Social Affairs (ABISA), had her nephew, a young Senegalese asylum seeker, detained in the ICE detention center at Baldwin, Michigan. She noted that solidarity with workers must extend to immigrant workers, as we share the same rights. Sarr further stated that a future general strike, a topic mentioned extensively during the rally, must be carried out to ensure that these demands are heard by those in power.

“We all know that to go to Baldwin, we have to drive three and a half hours,” she said. “If you aren’t buying food, nor going to school because you are scared, if you are not going to go to work, you certainly aren’t going to drive three and a half hours to Baldwin to see a loved one. In a state where a driving license is not a right for every immigrant.”

“So there is a lot that we need to address, and we need to address it now,” Sarr added.

El común denominador de las protestas del Primero de Mayo en Michigan

En decenas de países, el 1 de mayo es el Día Internacional de los Trabajadores. Este conmemora la histórica lucha por la jornada laboral de ocho horas y la búsqueda más amplia de mejores condiciones de trabajo para la clase obrera en todas partes. Menos en los Estados Unidos, este celebra su propio día del trabajo en otra fecha. 

Esta conmemoración tiene su origen en la Masacre de Haymarket, ocurrida en la plaza Haymarket de Chicago el 4 de mayo de 1886, el clímax de una serie de protestas que se venían desarrollando desde el 1 de mayo en apoyo a trabajadores en huelga que exigían una jornada laboral de ocho horas. Desde entonces, miles de personas en diversas ciudades han salido a las calles para exigir mejores condiciones de trabajo, incluidos los trabajadores de este país.

Michigan no fue la excepción.

Manifestaciones en Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor y Detroit reunieron a cientos de personas la tarde del pasado viernes. Conserjes, enfermeros, maestros, jubilados, manifestantes anti-Trump y miembros de otros sectores se reunieron y marcharon en unidad, bajo las consignas: “Fuera el dinero de los políticos”, “Atención médica para todos”, “Trabajadores por encima de los millonarios” y “Fuera el ICE”.

“Aquí estamos”, dijo Mark DePaoli, director de la Región 1A del sindicato UAW, ante varios cientos de personas en el parque Roosevelt de Detroit. “140 años después, seguimos luchando por las mismas cosas. Conseguimos la jornada laboral de ocho horas, pero en realidad seguimos luchando por ella a diario en forma de horas extras forzadas; y sé que algunos de los que estamos aquí presentes contamos con atención médica, pero para la inmensa mayoría, esta resulta inasequible e inalcanzable”.

En Grand Rapids, organizada por el Movimiento Cosecha, alrededor de 250 personas exigieron justicia para los trabajadores inmigrantes durante la manifestación del Primero de Mayo en el parque Garfield. Aquí, la protesta no se limitó únicamente a la tarde del viernes. Entre el 1 y el 3 de mayo, Movimiento Cosecha organizó una serie de eventos comunitarios para reafirmar sus demandas de que la ciudad de Grand Rapids y el condado de Kent adopten políticas de santuario, implementen un boicot económico y exijan la abolición del ICE.

En docenas de ciudades de todo el país, los manifestantes también se movilizaron por los derechos de trabajadores. Aunque la mayoría de estas manifestaciones transcurrieron de forma pacífica, algunas derivaron en detenciones por parte de la policía. En California, la policía de San Francisco detuvo a 25 personas después de que algunos manifestantes intentaran bloquear una vía de acceso en el Aeropuerto Internacional de San Francisco. En la ciudad de Nueva York y en Washington D.C., las manifestaciones también recibieron respuesta policial.

DePaoli se sumó al llamado a defender a los inmigrantes y a otras minorías que han sido blanco de la administración Trump. “Nos dicen que los inmigrantes que cruzan la frontera nos están robando el empleo y que ellos son culpables. Que las parejas gais son la razón por la que nuestros costos de atención médica son tan elevados”, afirmó. “Permítanme decirles algo: los inmigrantes no nos están robando el empleo y las personas homosexuales no encarecen la atención médica”.

La manifestación fue organizada inicialmente por sindicatos y organizaciones como la AFL-CIO del área metropolitana de Detroit, la UAW y otras. A la cita, también asistieron funcionarios electos y candidatos, quienes se mezclaron entre la multitud en lugar de pronunciar largos discursos. La representante federal Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan, distrito 12), la senadora estatal Stephanie Chang (D-Detroit), la representante federal Haley Stevens (D-Michigan, distrito 11), el candidato al Senado federal Abdul El-Sayed, el representante estatal Dylan Wegela (D-Garden City) y el representante federal Shri Thanedar (D-Michigan, distrito 13) se encontraban entre la multitud.

Aunque una valla publicitaria frente al parque pedía el fin de la guerra contra Irán en nombre de Thanedar, este fue recibido con cánticos de “¡Vergüenza!” y “¡Palestina libre!” por parte de algunos manifestantes mientras conversaba y saludaba a otros asistentes.

La senadora Chang aprovechó la oportunidad para dirigirse a la multitud y denunciar la amenaza que enfrentan los trabajadores inmigrantes, quienes están siendo arrestados por agentes de inmigración ya sea al salir hacia sus trabajos, mientras se desempeñan como taxistas o repartidores, o al regresar a sus hogares.

“Mientras las familias son desgarradas y los niños resultan traumatizados por la aplicación de las leyes de inmigración fuera de control, al mismo tiempo sabemos que los trabajadores de Michigan luchan para llegar a fin de mes, pelean por formar un sindicato y simplemente intentan conseguir un contrato justo”, ella dijo.

Finalmente, tras una larga serie de discursos, grupos activistas encabezaron una marcha hacia el Edificio Federal McNamara, recorriendo la avenida Michigan. En el complejo federal se pronunciaron más discursos que exigían la protección de inmigrantes; asimismo, se llamó la atención sobre la agenda bélica impulsada por la administración Trump, en lugar de beneficiar a la clase trabajadora. 

“Los estadounidenses en su propio país luchan para poder costear el alquiler, la atención médica y las necesidades básicas”, afirmó Noor, organizadora del Movimiento de la Juventud Palestina.

“Nos dicen que no hay dinero para vivienda, salud ni educación, pero, de alguna manera, siempre hay fondos suficientes para asesinar a nuestras familias en Palestina, el Líbano e Irán”.

La Dra. Seydi Sarr, fundadora de la Oficina Africana de Inmigración y Asuntos Sociales (ABISA) y quien tuvo a su sobrino, un joven solicitante de asilo senegalés, detenido en el centro de detención del ICE en Baldwin, Michigan, señaló que la solidaridad con los trabajadores debe extenderse a los trabajadores inmigrantes, ya que compartimos los mismos derechos. Sarr afirmó además que una futura huelga general, un tema ampliamente mencionado durante la manifestación, debe llevarse a cabo para asegurar que estas demandas sean escuchadas por quienes detentan el poder.

“Todos sabemos que, para ir a Baldwin, tenemos que conducir tres horas y media”, dijo. “Si no vas a comprar comida, ni vas a la escuela porque tienes miedo; si no vas a ir a trabajar, ciertamente no vas a conducir tres horas y media hasta Baldwin para ver a un ser querido. En un estado donde la licencia de conducir no es un derecho para todo inmigrante”.

“Así que hay mucho que debemos abordar, y debemos abordarlo ahora”, añadió Sarr.
