Led by Chris Chalkley, founder and director of PRSC, Rebel Walk: Tesco Riot will explore the social and cultural experiment that some claim Stokes Croft to be, and the role of PRSC in that experiment.

Dubbed the ‘Tesco Riot’, the disturbances of 2011 on Bristol’s Stokes Croft were part of a wave of national rioting across the country. But behind the headlines is a more complex story of exploring citizen solutions to social problems and attempts to establish alternative ways of living. 

 

The 'Riots' were a very real response from a community that was on its own journey, finding itself being overwhelmed by economic forces which threaten to squeeze out of existence the independence of spirit that is indeed why the area is so well-loved. 

 

In a period of growing inequality and a desperate housing and homelessness crisis, the discussion around property, the landed and the landless, the disappearance of the commons, and the privatisation of just about everything, is the issue of our times. With the huge systemic inequalities that are created thereby, the need for alternative thinking and action has never been so vital. 

 

Led by Chris Chalkley, founder and director of PRSC, Rebel Walk: Tesco Riot will explore the social and cultural experiment that some claim Stokes Croft to be, and the role of PRSC in that experiment. 

 

Rebel Walk is part of Art of Resistance, a two-year project celebrating Bristol's alternative and activist heritage through a series of workshops, walks, talks, exhibitions, and oral history.  To find out more and how you can contribute (link to AoR)
