Democracy Now! May 2, 2012
On a surprise visit to Afghanistan, President Obama marked the one-year anniversary of the assassination of Osama bin Laden and announced the signing of a long-term strategic partnership. Hundreds of thousands of people across the world marked May Day on Tuesday by filling the streets and demanding better working conditions, greater job security, and improved quality of life. Several major unions joined with immigrant rights activists and tens of thousands of Occupy Wall Street protesters in New York City for a massive rally that marched to Wall Street. And in the city’s Madison Square Park, hundreds of people attended a "Free University" hosted by Occupy Wall Street. Plus headlines, and more.
