The Mary Quaile Club, part founded in Salford, aims to tell stories of working class organisations and characters throughout history that might never be heard, and tomorrow Sunday 29th November, at 2pm, the Club hosts the launch of a story that really needs telling...
Anti Nazi Germans, by Merilyn Moos and Steve Cushion, challenges a common myth that there was no resistance in Germany to the Nazis. In the first part of the book, Merilyn describes the German anti-Nazi resistance, particularly from the German working class movement.
In the second part of the book, Steve chronicles how German refugees took part in fighting the Nazis in France..."From spreading anti-Nazi propaganda in the German Army and attempting to organise mutiny and desertion, through to extensive involvement in urban terrorism and the rural guerrilla struggle", he states.
The authors are lifelong activists in opposing fascism through organisations such as the Anti Nazi League, trade unions and community campaigns, and they want to encourage people to be inspired by the women and men in the book..."The most important lesson we can learn from the history of their struggles is that resistance is always possible, even under the most grim of circumstances", they say.
The Northern Launch of Anti Nazi Germans by Merilyn Moos and Steve Cushion, who will be attending, takes place on Zoom, Sunday 29th November at 2pm...
