Labor Day isn’t the most exciting of holidays. It doesn’t quite have the verve or internationalism of May Day and its meaning is overshadowed\u00a0by important things like superb\u00a0discounts on flat screen TVs.<\/p>\n

But Labor Day was a real\u00a0victory for the workers’ movement. As\u00a0Tim Goulet writes<\/a>\u00a0in Jacobin<\/em>, the holiday finds its roots in the\u00a0most radical struggles of the nineteenth century.\u00a0More than a decade before Grover Cleveland sanctioned a federal observance\u00a0in 1894, Labor Day was marked\u00a0by socialists and radical trade unionists.<\/p>\n

We might still prefer May Day<\/a>, but hey, workers deserve at the very least two days to celebrate their contributions to society.<\/p>\n
