SUMMARY:Book Reading - Trotskyists on Trial
DESCRIPTION:By Donna T. Haverty-Stacke\nThe 1934 Minneapolis Teamster general strike coincided with the San Francisco General Strike. After the Minneapolis strike\, the government\, the companies and more conservative union officials sought to go after the leadership of the Teamster Local 544 for organizing the strike and fighting against corporate unionism. Donna T. Haverty-Stacke who is professor at Hunter College in New York has written an important work of this trial and period. Haverty-Stacke will discuss the lessons of this trial and how the leadership was removed and replaced by a more compliant union that was interested in working with the companies and government to blacklist the leaders of the general strike. \nClick here to watch her presentation on July 15\, 2018

SUMMARY:Coit Tower Mural Walk
DESCRIPTION:With Peter O’Driscoll and Harvey\nSmith In the past few years\, there has been a growing community effort to defend the Coit Tower murals from leaking water and to stop plans for privatization of the site. This led to the critical renovation of the murals on their 80th anniversary. They were being painted during the time of the 1934 general strike in San Francisco. LaborFest will hold its annual guided tour of the murals with Peter O’Driscoll and Harvey Smith. At the time of their installation\, an organized effort was made to destroy them because of the leftist themes. The artists and their supporters had to physically defend the site. The murals were successfully defended and we have them today as our heritage. The artists were working under the Civil Works Administration and Public Works of Art program\, which was later extended to many buildings and sites throughout the U.S.
