I was excited to get this book in the mail recently from Haymarket Press: China on Strike, Narratives of Workers' Resistance. I did the watercolor painting for the cover in 2015. The stories of Chinese workers are rarely heard in the U.S. but here they are well-documented and ready to challenge your expectations. It's especially important to listen now, as China moves forward. #tiananmen #haymarketbooks #chinaonstrike #chineseworkers

My design for the new Justseeds portfolio in collaboration with Culture Strike, We Are The Storm. It is inspired the work of RAMPS, a group working in West Virginia, tirelessly advocating for practices that are healthy for the mountains & mountain people. Check out their campaign to put down roots at bit.ly/ramps-roots! More about this portfolio at justseeds.org under "projects". @justseeds @culturestrike #ramps #roots #mountainjustice #westvirginia #wearethestorm #justseeds #culturestrike #mountaintopremoval
