Emily Fromm is a #SanFrancisco artist who has been working on a huge new mural over by the Great Walkway Park in Ocean Beach. After spending 150 hours on the piece, somebody vandalized the piece on Friday night (a few days before the piece was finished & coated in vandalisim-resistant coating).
Emily is trying to be a positive force in the community, but has been harassed by car owners who are opposed to the new park. She believes that's why her artwork was vandalized. instagram.com/p/DHOwpw8yM2Y/

A 60 foot long mural along a walkway in Ocean Beach. The mural depicts several historical points in Ocean Beach, like the Sutro Baths and old amusement parks. On top of the mural, a vandal has sparyed white spray paint in a zig zag pattern. This doesn't look like a graffiti tag, it looks like someone was trying to cover as much of the mural as possible with a can of spray paint.

Today in Labor History March 9, 1902: Actor Will Geer was born. Best known for his role as Grandpa Walton in the long-running series, “The Waltons,” Geer also appeared in the groundbreaking film, “Salt of the Earth,” which portrayed the struggle of Mexican American workers at the Empire Zinc Mine. Because of his activism on labor and political issues, he was blacklisted in Hollywood for many years. In 1934, he became a member of the Communist Party. He also met LGBTQ activist Harry Hay that year and they became lovers. Together, they supported the 1934 San Francisco General Strike and demonstrated against fascism and for workers’ rights. Hay was a co-founder of the Mattachine Society, the first major gay rights group in the United States, and the Radical Faeries, an anarcho-pagan queer spiritual-political movement.
