Londoners Reni Eddo-Lodge and Emma Watson are collaborating with author
Rebecca Solnit and geographer Joshua Jelly-Schapiro to reimagine
London's classic tube map. The new public history project 'City of
London Women' will redraw Transport for London's classic underground map
by naming each stop after a woman, non-binary person or a group. By
consulting with artists, historians, community organizers and others
through an open call, the project aims to identify remarkable female or
non-binary Londoners who have had an impact on the city's history in
some way.
It will allocate them to each of the stations depicted
on the London tube map according to their connections to a local area.
Some of these people might be household names, others might be unsung
heroes or figures from London's hidden histories. The names might be
drawn from arts, civil society, business, politics, sport and so on.
Attractively produced and packaged as a large poster map, this will be
an ideal gift item that will find a place in museums and art stores as
well as bookshops across London and beyond.
