Calling Up Justice Presents: A Digital Access Hub for May Day 2026
This May Day, Calling Up Justice is building an accessible digital staging ground for Disabled people, chronically ill people, immunocompromised people, caregivers, and anyone who needs remote access to civic action.
We are not producing the protest itself. We are producing access to public participation.
Because showing up for democracy should not depend on stairs, stamina, transportation, geography, safety, income, or health. Public engagement belongs to all of us.
Join the Digital May Day Hub
On May 1, 2026, workers, students, families, and communities across the country will rally, march, strike, organize, and take action for a nation that puts workers over billionaires.
Calling Up Justice will host an online gathering space where remote participants can connect to this national day of action in real time.
Our hub will live inside an interactive GatherTown space where participants can:
- Create an avatar and move through a shared digital world
- Meet and chat with others attending remotely
- Access links to livestreams, Zoom rooms, and actions happening nationwide
- Listen to live DJ sets and community music
- Watch screens featuring protests, speeches, performances, and civic events from around the country
- Rest, connect, witness, organize, and participate at your own pace
Why This Matters
Too often, public actions forget the millions of people who cannot safely or easily attend in person.
Disabled people have always been part of movements for labor rights, racial justice, immigrant justice, reproductive freedom, and democracy. Access is not extra. It is infrastructure.
We believe remote participation is not secondary participation. It is real participation.
The May Day Call
Across the country, people are standing up to demand:
- Affordability Agenda
- Tax the rich so families come before fortunes
- No ICE. No war. No private armies serving authoritarian power
- Protect voting rights and expand democracy
- Fully funded schools, healthcare, housing, and public goods
- Dignity, safety, and opportunity for working people
Many will participate through No Work. No School. No Shopping.

- Disabled people
- Immunocompromised people
