Dia del Trabajo

National holiday. Workers march through the streets, unions gather, and the speeches echo off the mountains in La Paz. In Bolivia, labor rights are personal because nearly everyone has a family member who works in the mines, the fields, or the informal economy that keeps this country breathing.
