Rockefeller had "Man at the Crossroads," a mural by Diego Rivera, destroyed because it included a depiction of Lenin and promoted communist themes that conflicted with his views and the values of his patronage. The mural was commissioned for the RCA Building in New York City, but Rockefeller objected to Rivera's political message. After Rivera refused to alter the mural, it was ultimately taken down in 1934, highlighting the tensions between artistic expression and corporate interests.

How did Rockefeller use horizontal integration to build his impire?
Rockefeller was a very good business man who some considered to be a robber baron and others thought he was a captain of industry. Basically he wanted to become the (or monopoly) that way he could charge what ever prices he wanted. The biggest reason that he got as rich as he did was because he made a deal with a railroad company to transport his oil for a cheaper price and he would give the railroad some of the profit. Since other businesses didn't have deals like Rockefeller, his oil was cheaper so many people purchased his putting other oil companies out of business. This allowed him to rise to the top of the oil industry. Well, to be more accurate, he built every oil field in the world except 2, which were built by Britain. His company, Standard Oil had NO competition. And to be more precise, he didn't use horizontal integration, he used verticle integration.
