This is the third meeting in Bristol to discuss opposition to David Cameron’s ‘truly national commemoration’ of WW1 stressing our ‘national spirit’.<\/p>\n
Nationally there are plans to ensure that attention is given to the real causes and effects of the war, rather than an opportunity for our government to re-habilitate this war in particular or war in general. Bristol has long radical traditions and we know there are groups and individuals across the city who will want to ensure that there are events locally remembering the reality of World War 1. We want to facilitate this. We want to encourage the widest possible range and number of events — meetings, music, theatre, film, exhibitions etc. What might be organised (and how) will largely be determined by the individuals and groups who get involved. The involvement of a wide spectrum of people and groups will ensure a greater cross-fertilisation of ideas; events can be publicised more widely; and they can reach a wider audience. So if you are interested in participating please come along to this meeting.<\/p>\n
This meeting is jointly organised by Bristol Stop the War Coalition and Bristol Radical History Group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
