It is Workers's Day in Italy "FESTA DEI LAVORATORI”. This date was chosen to remember the worker’s struggles, fought to get the limit of eight hours working a day. Infact the first May 1886 there was a change: 4000 workers began to protest the lack of protection of their rights and the law of the limit of eight hours of work was approved. Today the first May is no longer synonymous of struggle and deaths, but an opportunity to organize a day out in the country with family and friends.
The picture shows one of many demonstrations.
