Revolution In Liverpool
This week saw the launch of a series of events in Liverpool to mark the anniversary of the October 1917 Russian Revolution. Crowds gathered in Temple street on Wednesday to see the launch of a free open air exhibition on a revolutionary theme. The exhibition will run for a couple of months. On Wednesday evening Neil Faulkner, author of ‘A People’s History of the Russian Revolution’ led a discussion on the October revolution at the The Quaker Meeting House. ‘Red October’ will continue this Sunday 29th October at 2:30pm at The Quaker Meeting House, 22 School Lane, Liverpool L1 3BT (details of speakers below).
