Labour Day

The first Friday in June when Bahamian workers march through Nassau with union banners, brass bands, and a deep pride in the struggles that built the nation. The parade winds through downtown and ends with speeches, food, and a whole lot of storytelling about the old labor movement. After the formalities, it is a cookout, a beach day, and a reminder that every right on the books came from somebody who stood up first.
