Marching to the beat of punk rock and reggae, Rock Against Racism fought alongside the Anti-Nazi League against a resurgence of racist and fascist politics in 1970s Britain. This book analyses one of the biggest and most effective political mobilisations of the post-war period, demonstrating that popular music and mass protest can go hand in hand.
