Quite the opposite, actually. Weekend protests are what are classist. In my 20’s before I had my union job I worked EVERY weekend in the service industry. The only people who I know that work M-F 9-5 work at banks, in finance, or in upper management. I have a career now and I still work weekends because its blue collar work. Our May Day protest will actually be held during the day near the college campus, because the college students cant attend or interact with us otherwise. They work weekends because they have school during the week so they have requested this of us.
