This Labor Day, Atlanta workers will demand that Georgia and America’s working class be given the power and compensation we deserve. On Monday, September 1, working people from across Atlanta will rally in Woodruff Park and march to defend our jobs, schools, healthcare, and communities from the billionaire class that continues to exploit us.

Atlanta DSA is proud to host Workers Over Billionaires: A Labor Day Rally in partnership with allied organizations.

It takes a lot of resources to ensure that a rally of this scale is strong, safe, and heard loud and clear across Atlanta. To help support the effort, donate NOW! Every dollar goes directly toward making this march possible.
