New Book: The People Speak

Share


The People Speak
is a compendium of speeches, stories, letters and songs that express radical dissent throughout British history.  The People Speak project first appeared in the USA, cofounded by historian and activist Howard Zinn and Anthony Arnove. 

Following the success of the US book and film, Arnove embarked on a UK version, working with actor Colin Firth and historian David Horspool.  The book spans British history from 1066 to the present, covering conflicts as diverse as republicanism, struggles against English colonialism, suffrage, race, class, workers’ rights, and gender and sexual equality.  Here Anthony discusses the aims of the book, the writing process and what is next for the project.
