## We do this tour every year on November 9, visiting the sites where the working class wrote history. ##
107 years ago, an insurrection took place in Berlin. With the general strike of November 9, 1918, workers toppled the Kaiser and ended the First World War.
Thus began the November Revolution. Millions of people took to the streets to fight for an end to capitalism. But the Social Democratic Party allied with the imperial military to drown the revolution in blood.
A century after the uprising, we will visit the spots where Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Liebknecht, Richard Müller, and countless proletarians in the German capital changed the history of the world.
If you would like to attend a tour, please send an e-mail (with the date of the tour) to:
cmV2b2x1dGlvbmFyeWJlcmxpbiB8IGdtYWlsICEgY29t. You will get a confirmation e-mail within one day. This is to make sure we have enough people (at least 5) but also not too many (no more than 25) for a tour to take place.
Our tour will be meeting near Potsdamer Platz — on the south side of the square, at the exit of the U2 subway station, next to Espresso House (Potsdamer Platz 10). We will meet at 14:00 and leave by 14:10. The tour will end two hours later near Hallesches Tor. We will not be using public transportation — the tour is completely outside.
Suggested donation is 15 euros per person, but any contribution is appreciated and none is required. You can also pick up a signed copy of the book "Revolutionary Berlin."
