International Workers Day – May Day, is both celebrated used as a day of continuing struggle right across the world. In some parts of the world, taking to the streets is, in itself, an act of dissent and of resistance, and workers risk their lives just doing that. Iran is one such country where workers’ organising is heavily and brutally repressed. Hana is a labour movement activist, originally from Iran and now based in melbourne, victoria. She has recently returned from Iran and on today’s show, reports on the protests during May Day there, with some comparison to International Women’s Day.
