A little later than usual, but these are unusual times,the London Socialist Historians summer 2020 newsletter is now on-line:
http://londonsocialisthistorians.blogspot.com/2020/06/london-socialist-historians-group.html
Thanks to John Burton who does the work of designing and putting the newsletter together.
The newsletter has been published three times a year since 1997 and the contents of all issues are on-line, just follow the link above.
This issue has a particular focus on Black History, looking at some of the historical background to the BAME death toll from COVID-19.
There is also a review of a new book on London Chartism in 1848 that places the black leader of London Chartism in that year centre stage.
The newsletter also carries a piece on new research on the impact of the Cato St Conspiracy 200 years after it took place.
Interesting times and times when history is needed more than ever.
