Join us for an evening exploring the legacy of the 1926 General Strike.
Chris Bowkett (Bristol Radical History Group) will discuss his forthcoming pamphlet Conflicts of Interest, examining the tensions between trade unionists and the co-operative movement during the General Strike.
He’ll be joined by Matt Lee from Working Class History, who will outline how the General Strike 100 project came about and why mapping the strike is such a vital part of remembering it.
All welcome.
