About Kevin

Educator, Marxist, Activist

Dr. Kevin Bean taught at the Institute of Irish Studies at the University of Liverpool and was a real ‘educator’, inspiring students with his vast knowledge of Irish and working class history, leaving a lasting impact on all who had the privilege to learn from him. A committed and brave Marxist, Kevin was a long-time member of the Communist Party of Great Britain and one of the ‘Wavertree Four’ witch-hunted by the Labour Party. He was a leading activist in the Merseyside Pensioners’ Alliance.
