Paradise Square was the scene of enormous Chartist demonstrations in the 1830’s. So it seemed an appropriate place to be pictured holding one of the posters created by the France 1968 movement. I arrived in the UK from the USA just before May 1968. It was a very exciting time to arrive. Being left wing in America was a lonely thing; here there was so much happening. The anti-Vietman war movement was huge. I became active in many campaigns and in my union. Originally I planned to stay for 1 year. Now almost 50 years later I am still here and still fighting for justice and equality, although the fight is getting harder and harder.
