(en) UK, ACG: ANARCHISTS, SOCIALISTS, SQUATTERS AND STRIKERS: East End Radical History Walk (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Wed, 5 Nov 2025 07:50:37 +0200


Venue: Outside Spitalfields Church ---- Date/Time: Sunday 19 October at 11:00 - 13:00 ---- Meet outside Spitalfields Church, Commercial Street, London E1 6LY ---- Suggested donations £6 WAGED, £3 UNWAGED (will fund ACG publications) ---- BRING STOUT WALKING SHOES. FINISH AT A CAFÉ AFTERWARDS WHERE THERE'LL BE TIME FOR QUESTIONS. Nearest tubes: Liverpool Street, Aldgate East ---- A Radical History Tour around the East End, Let a seasoned anarchist veteran introduce you to all the rich and unknown history of the East End. Take a trip around the "narrow, crooked streets", by-lanes and alleys of the East End. THRILL as we visit the site of the Sugar Loaf pub, famed for its weekly anarchist meetings which tempted "poor flies into the trap". GASP as we visit the sites of the first organising attempts among Jewish workers and the scenes of mass strike meetings. SOB as we see the soup kitchens which fed the poor and hungry.

Your pulse will race when we come upon the site of the Russian Social Democratic Party Congress, where the split between the Bolsheviks and the Mensheviks first emerged. You will gaze in wonder at the door through which Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin all went. Your heart will beat loudly when you gaze upon the place where two Latvian revolutionaries held off armed police and Guardsmen for many hours. You will be awestruck by our visits to the two great Anarchist clubs of the East End, home of many speeches, plays and musical diversions and you will mutter in outrage when you hear about the brutal attacks by the police on the Anarchists there. You will wonder at the streets which were squatted lock stock and barrel in a confrontation with the authorities and you will be intrigued by the building which housed one of the several free schools in the East End dedicated to enlightened education.

So down your tools, pick up your red and black flag, and dive into the inspiring world of East London's Radical History.

Nearest tubes: Liverpool Street, Aldgate East
