This week sees the launch of Bristol Radical History Group’s event The 1970s – Life Before Thatcher. For most of us the 1970's is a distant memory or we have no memory at all if we are lucky enough to be that young. Many people see the events we are living through as having lots of parallels with the 1970's. So what better way to learn more about the successes and events of the 1970s than by attending these great events. Hear from the people who were there about the events that mattered and this is all for free, but don’t forget to buy the great Radical History pamphlets, surely to become collectors items in the future.

Talks, films and music, 13 free events between Sunday 14th November and Tuesday 7th December 2010 on a variety of subjects such as The 1976 West Indies Cricket Tour, From The Ford Workers’ Group to Made In Dagenham, The Asian Youth Movement, Grunwick: The End Of An Era?, Spies, Lies And The Coup: State Repression In The 70s, Cry Freedom Concert, How We Won: Strikes In The 70s, Glam-Punk Disco Inferno, The Anti-Vietnam War Movement, Punk And The Pistols, From Recruitment To Dialogue: How Does The Radical Left Relate To Workers?, Italy In The 1970s: Bodies In The Street, A Tale Of A Country Like Ours, The League Of Revolutionary Black Workers.
