Protest, Rebellion and Freedom of Speech. Two centuries on, these principles are still under threat. This new commission tells the personal stories of two women as they struggle to rise up and find their voice. Wed 16 & Thu 17 Oct, 7.30pm @HOME_mcr ow.ly/2Dd850wKsXp

This is such a powerful watch 👇and great legacy from the @mcrhistfest @peterloo2019 @guardian partnership
In partnership with the Guardian we produced a special commission; a visual celebration of the rallying cries from a history of unrest and how #Peterloo led to the founding of the Manchester Guardian. Watch Now: ow.ly/gZHV50wFEcH #Peterloo2019

In Manchester, 'Disrupt? Peterloo and Protest' at @PHMMcr runs until next February and you can still see this exhibition at @TheJohnRylands for another three weeks.
GOOD NEWS: our #jrlPeterloo exhibition has now been extended until 20 October. There’s still time to discover the powerful story of #Peterloo and its significance 200 years on. #Peterloo2019 man.ac.uk/3mNHc0

Inspiring to see so many examples of museums getting involved with the #GlobalClimateStrike activism today. @McrMuseum shrouding their T-Rex in black seems to be one of the most dramatic actions - and also one of the most controversial, judging by the comments!
