An evening to remember Paul Robeson
Submitted by Eamonn Lynch on 9 October, 2016 - 22:18A great initiative from the BEMMAC to commemorate the life of one of our finest - Mr Paul Robeson
A legendary character in the workers struggle whose songs inspired us and in times of need consoled us.
I recall at the funeral of Brian Munro, Robesons recital of Joe Hill was not only emotionally moving but also challenging to us all. I personally felt this was a demand from Brian that RMT reps go on to organise.
Paul Robeson will mean many things to many people.
