This event is being co-hosted by Virginia Organizing Williamsburg Area Chapter.

This May Day we are continuing to build our strength, our power and our momentum to win against this authoritarian regime, because when the billionaires break every rule, it’s going to take more than a just rally to stop them.  

Our May Day Demands:

1. Tax the rich so our families, not their fortunes, come first.

2. NO ICE, NO WAR, NO PRIVATE ARMY serving unchecked federal power.

3. Expand democracy, not corporate power. 

4. Hands off our vote!!!

Together we will be flexing our collective muscle in a tremendous day of power - showing our unity through a day of marches, rallies, and actions including, No Work, (please do not risk your job), No School, No Shopping (stock up on essentials beforehand). 

Instead of shopping on May Day, let us make it a Day of Giving to our Immigrant Community. Please participate, if you can. 

This May Day, we’re collecting high-impact donations for https://www.hagamosvaca.org/ to support newly arrived families right here in our community. Because we don’t have warehouse space, we’re focusing on items that can go
directly into people’s hands—no storage, no delay. That means gift cards (including gas cards) for immediate needs, lightly used tech for school and job access, and small, essential items that help families get on their feet quickly. Every contribution is practical, intentional, and immediately useful—because when families arrive, they can’t wait.

Please note: A core principle behind all our events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.

COMMUNITY NORMS:
Please read before attending one of our events. One of our main objectives is to host PEACEFUL, RESPECTFUL and SAFE EVENTS. Remember, when attending a Williamsburg JCC Indivisible event, your actions represent our group, and you are expected to conform to the Community Norms. Safety is a top priority for our attendees. Please remain out of the median, per instructions from the police. Being in the median puts us at risk and potentially drivers as well. If an Urgent Situation arises, we will raise a straight arm with our Hand in a Fist to ask for Silence. PLEASE DO THE SAME TO QUIET THE CROWD. This way we can quickly relay an important message to all. We wish to remind everyone that we do not react to those drivers who make it clear they do not support us by aggravating them through screaming obscenities or making certain hand gestures. We do not want to enrage them and potentially make everyone, including drivers, less safe. It is easier to wave at everyone and say, “Have a nice day.”
At our events, please do not hold signs or otherwise promote other events that Williamsburg JCC Indivisible is not hosting. You may be placing a potential legal liability onto our group that we are NOT willing to accept. Please do not engage in DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOURS! If you are asked to stop engaging in activities which are disrupting an event to the point people are complaining to the hosts that they are experiencing physical or emotional trauma, it is expected that you will be respectful of others and follow our Community Norms and stop those behaviours. Loud noises, such as, but not limited to, cowbells, horns, etc., are usually deployed by counter-protesters to disrupt an event, not by attendees participating in an event. If you refuse to disengage from such thoughtless behaviours, do not ruin the event for everyone else - please be kind and leave! As with our previous events, the same rules apply. We will not engage with counter-protesters. If an issue arises, please notify one of the event organizers, who will be wearing a Williamsburg JCC Indivisible T-shirt. We will not engage in any acts of violence or violation of any applicable laws or engage in civil disobedience. All actions will be peaceful. Everyone participating in this event will be required to behave lawfully to ensure the safety of event participants and will seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. We will obey the orders of authorized event marshals and law enforcement authorities. Event organizers will not be responsible for any injury or damage if any were to occur during this event. Each individual is responsible for the consequences of their actions and attends at their own risk. We will park in the Courthouse parking lot without blocking access lanes and will remove any trash that is left. We are committed to maintaining public health measures to practice safe protesting during these times. Please wear a mask and socially distance if that makes you more comfortable - weigh your own risk in attending. Follow all local safety guidelines at minimum, and any safety instructions from hosts that exceed local law.
