Grassroots Drawings 1972-1978 Peter Veres

Grassroots was a progressive community newspaper in Berkeley published by a collective of activists covering the various political stories in the city and beyond. The book presents the cartoons Veres drew for the paper, coupled with selections from many of the articles they illustrated, as well as some of his incidental drawings for columns and ads. It offers a look back at some of the issues of Berkeley politics, many of which are, unfortunately, still topical today.
