"Will You Fight For it?": A Radical History walk… from Camberwell Green
to Kennington Park
A snapshot of Chartism in South London
And other radical wanderings in the local rebellious past…
Thursday 14th June 2018
Meet 6pm, Camberwell Green, London SE5
Completely free… all welcome
Join Alex from past tense on a ramble through some of South London’s
Chartist past… and digressions into other related elements of the area’s
subversive undercurrents…
Come along and contribute to the discussions as we investigate Chartist
demonstrations, riots and revolutionary plots… discover some of the
groups who preceded Chartism… the culture that Chartism inherited and
built on… some of the movements that arose from the ruins of the
Chartist movement.
