#OTD in 1819, the #Peterloo Massacre occurred.

At least 18 people were killed and 400-700 people were injured at St Peter's Field in #Manchester after they were attacked by cavalry.

They were part of a large crowd of c.50,000 people demanding electoral and parliamentary reform.

@RUPeterloo2019 Rising Up! A beaut of a show. Super simple, because you don't need bells and whistles to jazz up truth and hope. Gorgeous music, clear as a bell performances. Boom.
