Autoworkers, educators and Amazon workers in US speak on International May Day rally Workers who attended the International May Day Online Rally held by the International Committee of the Fourth International (ICFI) on May 1 told the World Socialist Web Site that they were most struck by how speakers from many different countries described the common conditions confronting workers around the world and advanced a common international strategy for workers to fight the pandemic, social inequality, and the danger of war and fascism. Several workers spoke about the opening report by David North, the chairman of the international editorial board of the WSWS and national chairman of the Socialist Equality Party in the US, who reviewed how capitalist governments around the world had refused to take the necessary measures to save lives during the pandemic because this would undermine the private accumulation of wealth by the world’s billionaires. Drawing the comparison to revolutionary struggles that finally brought World War I to an end, North said that the pandemic could only be brought under control if “new means and instruments of social struggle” were formed to unleash “the creative power of the working class” in the US and around the world.
