The faculty strike is over at Southern Illinois University Carbondale. Here’s a look back at the outburst of pro-strike propaganda and other (visual) creativity that swirled around the strike and its interplay with the Occupy Carbondale movement.

Most of what is below was retrieved from the Occupy SIUC blog.
