Origin of Labor Day

 The International Workers' Day, is the feast par excellence of the world labor movement. It is a journey that has been commonly used to perform different social and labor demands.

Since its establishment in most countries by agreement of the Socialist Workers' Congress of the Second International, held in Paris in 1889, it is a day of struggle and a tribute to the Martyrs of Chicago. These anarcho-syndicalists were executed in the United States for its participation in the days of struggle for the achievement of the working day of eight hours, which originated in the strike that began on May 1, 1886 and its peak three days later, May 4, at the Haymarket Riot.

Today it is a protest party of the rights of workers in general, and is celebrated in many countries.
