Like the Paris student uprising two years ago, the U.S. student strikes over Cambodia and Kent State had a spontaneous and vivid byproduct: a sudden flood of impassioned graphic art, always polemical, often bitter, sometimes extraordinarily eloquent.

The SMC cited anti-war demonstrations held by the trade union movement in the aftermath of Cambodia.
