I present lectures and slideshows on political posters; contact me for details. I am committed to documenting, cataloging, and disseminating socially and politically significant graphic material which otherwise might be left behind in the digital revolution. Docs Populi is my political/artistic entity, and I am wholly responsible for creating the material at this site.
