On Labor Day, 2026, join with us as a community as we continue to defend the rights of workers, and demand the care we deserve as the backbone of our economy!! We will be hosting a rally at the intersection of Tintern St & Volvo Pkwy, where Home Depot, and Lowe's meet! On this day we will advocate for the rights of workers, and families struggling in our brutal economic climate. For the event... We encourage you to bring signs, flags, or any other form of message bearing. Your messages could revolve around workers rights as a whole, or/and, specific worker communities such as the immigrant, and disabled communities, whom are heavily, and frequently exploited. Furthermore... This event will be hosted from 1:00pm-3:00pm, so if you're unable to stay the entire period that's perfectly understandable! We chose this two hour time frame to allow people to come, and go as they need, even if we would prefer more people to linger for the full period, it's perfectly understandable if you don't. And lastly... we would greatly appreciate if you would like to bring water bottles, snacks, and even your own music players to the event! We would love if this event can really showcase what a community can do when we're united, and supporting each other! Hosted by B.N.W., a local nonprofit organization focused on supporting, and empowering every-single minority in need of support. If you would like more information about our organization, or further material to promote our event you may contact us at bnw.nonprofit@gmail.com. Note: A core principle behind all Labor Day events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. No weapons are permitted under any circumstances.
