In a pre May Day March visit, noted revolutionary activist Angela Davis paid a visit to the San Francisco ILWU Union hall.

In a tour organized by retired longshore activist Jack Heyman, she looked at mementos, murals and photos recalling San Francisco's 1934 general strike that included a sidewalk mural memorializing two strikers shot in the back by police,

After the visit, she marched in the ILWU contingent to the May Day rally at City Hall.
