Bradford is in the Metropolitan Borough of the City of Bradford in West Yorkshire, England, in the foothills of the Pennines 8.6 miles west of Leeds, and 16 miles northwest of Wakefield. Bradford became a municipal borough in 1847, and received its charter as a city in 1897. Following local government reform in 1974, city status was bestowed upon the wider metropolitan borough.
Historically a part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, Bradford rose to prominence during the 19th century as an international centre of textile manufacture, particularly wool. It was a boomtown of the Industrial Revolution, and amongst the earliest industrialised settlements, rapidly becoming the wool capital of the world. The area's access to a supply of coal, iron ore and soft water facilitated the growth of Bradford's manufacturing base, which, as textile manufacture grew, led to an explosion in population and was a stimulus to civic investment; Bradford has a large amount of listed Victorian architecture including the grand Italianate City Hall.
The textile sector in Bradford fell into decline from the mid-20th century. Since this time, Bradford has emerged as a tourist destination, becoming the first UNESCO City of Film with attractions such as the National Media Museum, Bradford City Park, the Alhambra theatre and Cartwright Hall. However, Bradford has faced similar challenges to the rest of the post-industrial area of Northern England, including deindustrialisation, social unrest and economic deprivation.

A walk round Banner Culture, Northlight Mill, Brierfield. Oct 2019
‘A banner is a thing to float in the wind, to flicker in the breeze, to flirt its colours for your pleasure… Choose purple and gold for ambitions, red for courage, green for long cherished hopes.’ Mary Lowndes, 1909
A century ago it was women’s suffrage, and crusades for peace. Now we have climate emergency, #MeToo, Trump, fracking… and Brexit. Banner culture is all around us.
This spectacular exhibition with its forest of stunning, textile artefacts, included banner making in all its forms, from the dignified, traditional processional to impromptu DIY messages of dissent. Crowdsourced from heritage collections, campaign groups, artists and communities, it presented a kaleidoscopic view of a century of protest, belief and identity.
Key events were recalled that shaped our times: CND campaigns, the Miners’ Strike, Greenham Common, and perennial struggles with inequality. Some outstanding banner artists contributed: Durham Bannermakers, who keep vibrantly alive the traditions of the miners’ groups; Thalia Campbell, whose work captured the unbreakable resolve of Greenham women; Ed Hall, celebrated for his collaborations with Jeremy Deller; and Peter Carney, who made heart-breaking memorials for the 96 killed at Hillsborough.
Artichoke’s Processions project, for the centenary of women’s suffrage, contributed a wonderful body of work, and the Peace Museum in Bradford shared a precious collection that brings so much recent history to life. We thank everyone for their generosity in loaning us these precious artefacts.
Banner Culture was created for the British Textile Biennial in partnership with Mid Pennine Arts, as part of their Pendle Radicals project. The exhibition took place at Northlight Mill, Brierfield, Lancashire between 5 October and 3 November 2019. Pendle Radicals is a part of the Pendle Hill Landscape Partnership, supported by National Lottery players through the National Lottery Heritage Fund.

When hate came to town part 1
This film, which is part of the Joseph Rowntree Foundation's Connecting Through Change programme was produced by JUST West Yorkshire following the EDL march in Bradford last summer. It includes interviews with EDL supporters, leading activists and leaders from the city's public, civic and faith institutions, and assesses Bradford's response to the EDL.
It was shown at the National Media Museum on 28 February 2011, at a public meeting organised by the Bradford Resource Centre and JRF. This was the first in a series of seminars which aims to bring together Bradford stakeholders to discuss issues arising from current social policy and issues relevant to Bradford.
Making the peace and love logo / Fabrication du logo peace and love
Today I'm going to make the peace and love logo ! More information (Wikipedia )
The internationally recognized peace symbol – variously known as the nuclear disarmament symbol, the CND symbol and the peace sign– was designed in 1958 for the British nuclear disarmament movement by Gerald Holtom.Holtom, an artist and designer, made it for a march from Trafalgar Square, London, to the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment at Aldermaston in Berkshire, organised by the Direct Action Committee to take place in April and supported by the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND). Holtom's design was adapted by Eric Austen (1922–1999) to ceramic lapel badges.The original design is in the Peace Museum in Bradford, England.
The symbol is a combination of the semaphore signals for the letters N and D, standing for nuclear disarmament. In semaphore the letter N is formed by a person holding two flags in an inverted V, and the letter D is formed by holding one flag pointed straight up and the other pointed straight down. Superimposing these two signs forms the shape of the centre of the peace symbol.
Aujourd'hui je vais faire le logo peace and love ! Plus d'informations (wiki):
Le symbole (« ☮ ») a été inventé par le graphiste britannique Gerald Holtom lors d'une manifestation de la CND en 1958 contre une usine d'armement nucléaire. On peut y lire, en alphabet sémaphore (utilisé dans la marine britannique), un N et un D qui sont les initiales de nuclear disarmament (« désarmement nucléaire »)
Pour certains, le signe à l'intérieur du cercle représente également une rune de l'alphabet futhark récent .
L'expression peace and love a été particulièrement employée pour désigner les contestataires œuvrant pacifiquement contre la guerre du Viêt Nam. Le symbole a été repris par le mouvement hippie.
Certains chrétiens, lui donnant le nom de « croix de Néron », l'interprètent comme un signe d’invocation ou de rituel démoniaque, parce qu'il représenterait une croix brisée et renversée au milieu d'un cercle.
Plus récemment, le signe a été détourné par le dessinateur Jean Jullien à l'occasion des attentats de novembre 2015 à Paris pour symboliser la tour Eiffel.
Pour certains, le sigle peace and love, provient du salut hippie avec deux doigts en l'air en forme de Y. Ayant créé les pendentifs, ceux-ci, de par la lourdeur de la double branche, venaient à se retrouver à l'envers .
