New York, 1989 - a decade of activism around the urban housing crisis is coming to a close. Legendary graphic artist Seth Tobocman documents it in his bold comic style. In a collection of his most enduring images, Tobocman covers everything from the imprisonment of Mumia Abu-Jamal; the rise of Reaganomics; the struggle against apartheid and the Miami race riots. It is both a candid portrait of a decade of struggle to preserve basic human rights and a critical historical artefact.
