May day /A Mournful Day
May day refers to a sad incident that took place in the month
of May in 1886 in the American city of Chicago.
May day means first May of the year, which is recognized as the international
workers who laid down their lives for the interest of the workers in Chicago in May 1886. The
history is that during those days the working people were suffering from over
work. From the beginning of the industrial Revolution people in factories have
worked very long, shifts lasting up to fourteen or even more hours a day. They
could not protest for fear of losing job. However, they protested against the
injustice done to them. And on May 3,1886 police fired into a protestant crowed
in Chicago. The
street of Chicago
were smeared with the warm blood of workers. Many people were injured and one
died. All the privilege
workers enjoy to day such as a minimum wage, safety laws and eight-hours
workday were the outcome of the sacrifices of the workers on May3,1886. These
are the rights they have achieved by their struggle. This day reminds the
working class people that the workers will continue to be exploited until they
stand up and speak and speak out to gain much better working condition, better
pay and standard of life. On this day the working classes of the world become
united irrespective of castes, creeds and nationalities. This is the glory as
well as sorrow. So black flags are flown atop the offices and black badges are
worn by the workers to symbolize their heartfelt grief for their fellow
workers. Thus May Day has been a symbol of unity for the workers all over the
world.
