This extensive gallery of tall aspect ration photographs presents a variety of images from the May 1, 2019 U.S. Immigration Policy March and Rally held in Seattle, Washington on that day. This year's incarnation of the annual May Day immigration politics march and rally included a march along Seattle streets from Judkin's Park in south Seattle through parts of Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, and then through parts of Seattle's downtown business core. The March concluded with two different sets of speeches, the first made in front of amazon.com headquarters and the second set of speeches made from a portable stage setup in front of the federal courthouse at 7th Avenue and Stewart Street. The immigration policy march and rally paused in front the amazon.com headquarters on 7th Avenue, where various speakers, including Seattle City Council member Lisa Herbold expressed their perspectives and concerns about the working conditions of employees of companies who contract with amazon.com to provide various types of services to amazon.com, such as security. The march portion of the immigration politics rally was led through the streets by the well known Aztec traditional dancing troop Ceatl Tonalli, whose dancers wear brightly colored traditional Aztec costumes as they conduct formal group dancing to the beat of a drum team. The photographs in this gallery are presented primarily in chronological order.

In this photograph taken on May 1, 2019 at the May Day Immigration politics march and rally, a man watch the speeches about immigration politics outside the federal courthouse as he wore stickers created by communist political group "Revolutionary Communist Party". The stickers the man associated with the Chicago based "Revolutionary Communist Party" wore contained the slogan, "Immigrants Stay! Trump / Pence Must Go". The stickers also included the website refusefascism.org on them. The refusefascism.org website is a website run by the "Revolutionary Communist Party". The refusefascism.org website primarily contains links to the website revcom.us, which appears to be the primary website of the "Revolutionary Communist Party". People associated with the "Revolutionary Communist Party" frequently attend political rallies in the Seattle area. Curiously, none of the materials they distribute at rallies include the words Marxist or Communist. However, on the associated website(s) their materials link to are entirely about "anti-capitalist", "revolutionary", Marxist Communist politics. According to the "Revolutionary Communist Party" group's website, founded by a man named Bob Avakian, advocated the overthrow of the U.S. government and its replacement with a communist one.
