May Day! May Day!
US gas prices bump up again as oil goes to more than $73 a barrel as speculators get the yips on the prospect of Iranian supply reduction.

And all across the US immigrants from South America and every other region staged gigantic demonstrations and walk outs and school walk outs.
In Oaxaca, Mexico International Workers' Day was commemorated. Journalists were promptly arrested. They are:
- Dulce Estrella Santamaría Robles

- Hasavias López Cortés
- James Daria
- Jessica Joseph Daria
- Hillary Chase Lowenbere
- Andrew William Saltzman
