This website is dedicated to writing by working-class people, their political struggles and their accomplishments.

Britain is a class-ridden society, and social class remains a determining feature of life.

Historically, the working class have made up about three-quarters of the population, although the representation of their experiences has been conspicuously absent in literature. ​Material hardship has prevented working-class people from articulating their history, having neither the time nor the literacy to write. Women have furthermore had to contend with housework and childrearing. ​
​Therefore, it is imperative to highlight working-class writing, recognise working-class people's experiences and achievements, and write them into history.
​This website is complicit in this quest.
