Marx in London
Channel: The Communist
Date: 2020-05-05

5th May is the birthday of Karl Marx, the greatest revolutionary thinker of all time. He was born in 1818 in Trier in Germany. However, Marx spent most of his adult life in exile in London until his death in 1883.

To celebrate Marx’s revolutionary life and ideas, Socialist Appeal is premiering this short documentary on Marx’s life in London, where Rob Sewell - editor of Socialist Appeal - tours the locations in Britain’s capital where Karl Marx lived, wrote, agitated, and organised.

Rob Sewell, presenter of ‘Marx in London’, comments:

“To commemorate his life in London I have done hundreds of “Marx walks”, taking people to visit the places where he lived, spoke and held his meetings. It was suggested by some comrades that we make a brief film of Marx’s life in London, visiting those places.

“Those involved in the production were not professionals, but I think we have produced a decent job, which we are making available to you on this special day. We hope you enjoy it!”

Help us build a genuine monument to Karl Marx, by building the forces of Marxism in Britain and internationally. Join us in the struggle for socialism.
