Explores cultural forces that shaped two pivotal events affecting the West Coast - the 1919 Seattle General Strike and the 1934 San Francisco General Strike. This title shows how strike participants were inspired by American notions of workplace democracy that can be traced back to political philosophies of Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine.
