(Free or $10 suggested donation – capacity limited to 20)
Meet at the Tenderloin Museum – 398 Eddy St. SF

The Tenderloin has always been and continues to be a densely populated enclave of primarily working-class people and thus the neighborhood sports a rich history of organized labor and vibrant working-class culture. On this walking tour, we’ll visit key places in the labor movement including union halls residential hotels sites of picket lines and protests as well as the former home of the California Labor School! This Labor History Walking Tour of the TL is presented as part of Education for Action: California Labor School 1942-1957 a collaboration with LARC that celebrates the radical union-founded worker’s school. Established in the TL the California Labor School was remarkable for its efforts to educate the whole person by offering a robust complement of humanities courses in tandem with classes on trade skills and organizing. The tour will last approximately 80 minutes and will be followed by Linda Day’s presentation at 3pm. Attend one or both!
