WOW!!! Currently there are 1,000 planned protests for MAY DAY!!!

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100220272067

Two days ago there were 794, yesterday there were 831 and now Sunday, 11:45 PM there are 1,000 protests planned.

There are even several protests in the same cities. This IS a big protest so check out both maps for current info.

Some areas are hosting multiple protests on May 1st as well as May 3rd and May 4th, it depends which local resistance groups are hosting events. Teachers, hospital staff, etc are marching for workers' rights.

I see 5 events in Nebraska. The 3 west of Lincoln are in very Red Nebraska (not "go big red" red).
Solidarity!
