Tribute to Peterloo - a photo on Flickriver

            This is a tribute to the sacrifices of ordinary people, a tribute to those with nothing who gave their everything, to stand against injustice.

Like the banners treasured inside, this mural, a beacon of hope, rises defiant, on the walls of the People’s History Museum.  The mother and child, symbolic of those who came to St Peter’s Field that day.

The first victim of Peterloo was a two year old child, William Fildes.  Thrust from his mother’s arms, as she fled the soldiers, charging on their horses, waving their sabres, he was murdered that day.
