This Labor Archives exhibition features the photographs of longshore worker Frank Silva who documented the life on the docks from 1978 through 1988. His photographs are highly compelling images of workers on the waterfront, documenting a significant period of change from break bulk cargo handling to mechanized containerization and the advent of globalization. Join us for the exhibition opening featuring a discussion with photographer Frank Silva, Brian McWilliams (former President of the ILWU), and Alexis Madrigal (creator of the podcast "Containers").
