Matt Gauck
Price

$6

In 1982, five activists from Squamish, Canada dynamited a hydroelectric project as well as a cruise missile factory, among others. They had become frustrated with conventional forms of activist & non-violent protest, so they took to propaganda of the deed, and made a difference with direct action.

Printed at the worker-owned Stumptown Printers, Portland, OR.

This is #88 in the Celebrate People’s History Poster Series.

Matt Gauck is an illustrator, screenprinter, and vegan goofball living in a tiny town in North Carolina.
