Whitech.com - Ideas For The Future
Did you know, there is a large portion of east London tourism centred around the murderer, Jack the Ripper, or what we prefer: the ‘unidentified murderer’?
This tourism mostly constitutes walking tours which visit the locations where the murders took place, showing gruesome photos, and dehumanising the women he violently killed for entertainment.
In 2017, Beyond the Streets joined with local activists and was the first organisation to subvert this dominant narrative by offering a regular walking tour telling an alternative history of events in Whitechapel. This tour focused on the lives and amazing resilience of these women.
