Description

“Wiped Out” (October 6, 1981)
By Charles Phillip Bissell (1926 - )
16.5 x 12, ink and wash on board

In 1960, Boston Globe cartoonist Phil Bissell, working for $25 a day, was handed an assignment that would change his life—and the lives of fans of the brand-new AFL football team coming to Boston. “Sports editor Jerry Nason came to me and he said, ‘They’ve decided to call the team the Boston Patriots. You better have a cartoon ready for tomorrow’s edition.’” Bissel’s “Pat Patriot” cartoon was the Patriot’s logo from 1961-1992.

“As President Reagan's war on Federal regulations intensifies, rules governing minority hiring have become prime targets for revision. The President has proposed changes reducing obligations of contractors on federally-funded projects to hire minority workers.” (NYT Oct 4, 1981)

“The Reagan Administration is backing away from affirmative action, the concept under which the Government has insisted that hiring and promotion reflect the ethnic and sexual makeup of the available labor force.” (NYT Oct 10, 1981)
