On 1 May we all gather together at Hlemmur square as a radical block, we then walk to Laekjartorg at the rear of the march. During this march, we want to be heard/seen. For this we need visual aid.
A limited amount of materials are provided, but bring your own if you can. (e.g.: wood, fabric, paint, markers)
About 1 May:
IWW Ísland, Trans Ísland, No Borders Iceland, Refugees in Iceland, Róttæki Sumarháskólinn, Rauða Regnhlífin, Black & Pink Iceland and Innblástur Arkestra invites you to take part in radical May Day celebrations for an afternoon of solidarity, intersectionality and empowerment!
We want you to join us for a Radical and Intersectional International Worker´s Day! We fight not only for better wages and working conditions, we fight for the liberation of all of humanity and to put an end to the ecological destruction of our planet by capitalism. We fight for diversity, equality and justice, no matter what country you were born in, no matter your gender, no matter your sexuality! No one can represent us but ourselves, we fight for an end to bosses and politicians dominating us and making our lives miserable! We fight within ourselves to put an end to the rape culture and the racism that surrounds us!
The theme for this year is “Challenging the Social Contract”. The “social contract” is the belief that we must be thankful and accept the authority of our government and our bosses, it is the idea that we should not protest because it is rude, that we should accept conventions rather than challenge the social order, and it is the legal doctrine that prevent us from improving our work conditions and wages except by negotiations through representatives.

13:30 – March last the MayDay procession down Laugavegur to Lækjartorg
