The General Strike and How to Build a Stronger, Bolder, and Bigger Pro-Democracy Labor Movement

Join us for a live streamed session from the Socialism 2026 conference, in Chicago. ——————————————————————— with Jackson Potter, Sean Fulkerson, Griffin Mahon, and others. For the last several years, May Day has been a touchstone for deepening relationships among unions and labor activists, building powerful local and national actions. As we look toward 2028’s “General Strike” moment, this discussion situates this organizing within a larger framework of election protection, Labor Day actions, and more necessary steps to strengthen the labor movement. ——————————————————————— Making sure that conference sessions are accessible to folks who aren’t able to join us in person is very important to us—but it also comes with a hefty price tag. While the entire live-streamed program will be available for free on Haymarket’s YouTube channel after the conference, please RSVP for our Socialism 2026 virtual program to access it live and make a donation to help us cover the associated costs! Please tune in and spread the word on social media. Live captioning will be provided for all live-streamed events.
