Created for New York City's New Workers School, the mural focused on issues of racial inequality and depicted the antislavery figures Frederick Douglass and John Brown, as well as shackled slaves - seen here in panel five of the mural. Rivera believed art was a weapon in the class struggle and frequently produced murals about revolution.

Touch of light spotting to the front blank, drop or two of coffee on back bottom edge, otherwise tight and clean. A lovely copy of a book that rarely appears signed.
