Levellers & Diggers 350 year Anniversary at St.George’s Hill.
Please check out my speech at this event on YouTube
My speech there, describing the fact that current protest and festival events like the free festivals, Stonehenge Gathering etc ….. are directly draw from the Levellers land squats of the 17th century. The people organising amungst themselves after the civil war.
With the Criminal Justice Act and the other shed-load of legislation recently, these things are still, more than ever, worth standing up for.
For some background and history, on what I’m on about here, check out my pages starting at: http://tash.gn.apc.org/leveller.htm
and all about the day to remember these communities and what they stood for.
