About this Event

Join Radical Glasgow Tours on this walk around the Southside and learn about a few of the area's radical histories, from Maoist bank robbers, sabotage and slavery to political song, anti-fascism and Yiddish theatre. This tour was once famously described as being packed with radical oral histories aka vintage leftwing gossip.
