The May Day holiday consists of three days, which are April 29, April 30 and May 1. The May Day holiday is a short holiday, and Mr. Shui Mo reminds everyone to pay attention to safety and health when traveling.The Origin of May 1 International Labor DayAt the end of the 18th century, the United States, Europe and many other countries gradually developed from capitalism to imperialism. In order to stimulate rapid economic development, squeeze more surplus value and maintain this high-speed capitalist machine, capitalists continued to increase working hours and labor intensity to cruelly exploit workers.In 1866, the Geneva Conference of the First International put forward the slogan of an eight-hour working day. On May 1, 1886, a large-scale strike and demonstration involving about 350,000 people was held in the United States, centered in Chicago. The demonstrators demanded improved working conditions and the implementation of an eight-hour workday. On May 3, 1886, the Chicago government sent out police to suppress the riot and shot and killed two people. The situation escalated, and on May 4, striking workers held a protest in Haymarket Square. Unidentified people threw bombs at the police, who eventually opened fire. A total of four workers and seven police officers died. This is known in history as the "Haymarket Riot" or "Haymarket Massacre." In the subsequent trials, eight anarchists were charged with murder, four were hanged, and one committed suicide in prison. Workers' protests were held around the world to commemorate this great workers' movement and to protest the subsequent verdict. These activities became the predecessor of "International Labor Day". In July 1889, at the founding congress of the Second International organized by Engels, it was announced that May 1st of each year would be designated as International Labor Day. Is May 1st 2017 a good day?
