Labor Maritime History Boat Tour
Part of the San Francisco LaborFest - Join the best labor maritime boat trip in the world as we go to historical sites on the bay and the Oakland container port. This is the 90th anniversary of the San Francisco General Strike. We will hear about our working-class history, and how the SF General Strike helped shape the character of San Francisco and the Bay Area with historians Gray Brechin, Bob Churney, Harvey Smith and others. We will have musicians on the boat trip.
