The Battle of Cable Street 90th Anniversary Celebration Gig (a Real Music Club Event)

About

90 years on from The Battle of Cable Street in East London it has never been more timely to celebrate and reflect on the courage, community strength and neighbourly unity shown that day, and in similar incidents such as the Battle of South Street in Worthing 1934 where Mosley's British Union of Fascists were also confronted, right up to today, as seen with 'The Battle of Trafalgar Street' in June this year here in Brighton.

The Far Right marched directy past the Prince Albert as we hosted a gig, with a newly installed blue plaque now documenting the resistance shown once again by a community united against the extremism and fascism that is infecting our communities once again.
.
At this Love Music Hate Racism supported event, we celebrate resistance and come together in community, as neighbours, as music lovers, as anti-fascists and anti-racists, standing up to those who wish to do us harm, curtail our freedoms and divide us. We take inspiration from those that resisted before us, and take our own collective strength in todays battles.
