Film viewing as part of the Peckham and Nunhead Free Film Festival at the Old nun's Head!


Salt of the Earth


Re-connect with one of American cinema's great achievements.


Banned on its release over 50 years for its radical message of workers' and women's rights, Salt of the Earth (Dir Herbert J. Biberman, 1954, USA, Cert U, 94 mins) was introduced into the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress in 1992, recognised for its prescience and relevance to political conflict before and since its release. Sadly, as relevant today as it ever was.


The event is run by Basic Income UK (BIUK) a small activist group established to promote and advocate for a radical new alternative to austerity. A Basic Income is money for everyone with no conditions ? if you?re a citizen you get the means to live.


This is a free event. No booking needed.

    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath.
