Murals
Mike Alewitz, with the help of many volunteers, has created dozens of murals throughout the world. In coalition with many labor and social justice organizations, mural themes reveal our hidden histories and create international solidarity.
The unflinching defense of working people has led to frequent destruction and censorship of the murals.
Some of the mural projects are listed below.
