DESCRIPTION:With labor archivist Lincoln Cushing, historian Peter O’Driscoll and Tim 
 Drescher.\nSeventy-five years ago this month artists who were working with 
 the Works Progress Administration (WPA) were working on the Coit Tower 
 murals. These political artists were very much influenced by the general 
 strike, and this is reflected in these historic murals. \nA media hysteria 
 was also whipped up against the art and the artists in an effort to censor 
 them. Fortunately this failed and the murals remain a testament to the 
 people of San Francisco and the labor movement.\nSee
