AWL London forum: Capitalism, slave revolts and workers' solidarity

Speaker: Paul Hampton. 7.30pm, Thursday 15 March. The Plough, 27 Museum Street, WC1A. (Tottenham Court Road tube)
The official history of how slavery was ended emphasises wealthy philanthropists motivated by religious and liberal principles. In fact, revolts by the slaves themselves, and solidarity from workers and the poor in the developed capitalist countries, played a major role. Come and hear and discuss the hidden history of the abolition of slavery.
