Manchester has long been one of the world’s most welcoming cities, accepting and assimilating those from Ireland, Italy, Russia, the West Indies and more over the centuries. But it hasn’t alaways been a smooth journey. Many have faced hostility and discrimination before finding status.
Ed Glinert, Manchester’s leading historian and tour guide, author of the forthcoming “Manchester: The Biography” with Great Northern Books, leads this tour into one of the city’s most fascinating set of stories…featuring Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Clarkson, Paul Robeson, George Fox, Sylvia Pankhurst and Jomo Kenyatta, in opposition to John Gladstone, Nick Griffin and James Anderton.
