International Labour Day

At first, this day was to claim the workers' rights, and for social and labor demands.
Now, it's to remind what has happened years ago: the industrial revolution in the United States of America.
On May, 1886, 200,000 workers went on strike, and some policemen, without inform, started to shot against the people. They killed 6 people and a lot of people got wounded.

"Eight hours for work, eight hours for sleep and eight hours for the house."

Now, we celebrate this day because we are grateful to the people that fought for our rights. And because we have holiday!
