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.

D-Day Remembrance

In Bedford, Virginia, the National D-Day Memorial holds a ceremony every June 6th. Bedford lost 19 men on D-Day, proportionally the heaviest loss of any American community. The town had a population of 3,000. The loss was 19 men from one town on one morning. The memorial is not in Washington. It is in Bedford, because that is where the grief was concentrated.
