Free Things to Do in London
A critical step in the uggs discount emergence of non-racialism was the formation of the Congress Alliance, including the Indian Congress, the Coloured People's Congress, a small white congress organisation (the Congress of Democrats) and the South African Congress of Trade Unions.The Alliance gave formal expression to an emerging unity across racial and class lines that was manifested in the Defiance Campaign and other mass protests of this period, which also saw women's resistance take a more organised character with the formation of the Federation of South African Women.In 1955, a Freedom Charter was drawn up at the Congress of the People in Soweto. The Charter enunciated the principles of the struggle, binding the movement to a culture of human rights and non-racialism. Over the next few decades, the Freedom Charter was elevated to an important symbol of the freedom struggle.The Pan Africanist Congress (PAC), founded by Robert Sobukwe and based on the philosophy of Africanism and anti-communism, broke away from the Congress Alliance in 1959. The PAC slogan 'Africa for the Africans' was strongly pan-Africanist in nature. Watch a politician in action! See history in the making by watching a debate as it happens in the Houses Of Parliament. Not only would this be a thrilling way to spend your morning or afternoon but you also get to spend time in the historic Palace of Westminster. The Palace was built in 1042 as a royal residence. Some years later the Westminster Hall was built which housed stalls selling many legal accessories. Following a fire in 1834 the Palace was rebuilt and now includes the famous clock tower (Big Ben). If you want to view Prime Minister's question time you will need to book in advance. The nearest tube is Westminster.Visit the Tower of London, after it has closed to tourists. The Tower of London has performed many roles over the years, namely a royal palace, a prison, a place of execution and a jewel house. It is definitely a must see for tourists, however the guided tours can often be crowded and noisy. What about your own personal tour minus the crowds? Few people know of an ancient ceremony that has been performed at the Tower every evening in one way or another for the last 700 years. At precisely 9.30pm the Yeoman Warders and the military guard lock the outer gates to the Tower and deliver the keys to North Face the Resident Governor of the Tower. This ceremony is open to the public by tickets booked in advance. You can watch this ancient ceremony with a small group of people and feel privileged to have gained access to this beautiful piece of history without the crowds. Visit their website for further information - The nearest tube is Tower Hill.DCY
