Today is the 89th anniversary of the Battle of Cable Street so here's "Cable Street" by Albert Turpin from his post-war work, most likely to mid to late 1950s. This is actually a view of Grace's Alley, just off Cable Street. #AlbertTurpin #BattleofCableStreet #EastLondonGroup

For the benefit of non British people, Mosley here was a British aristocrat and politician who rose to fame during the 1920s and 1930s when, having become disillusioned with mainstream politics, he turned to fascism. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oswald_...

At this point, it should probably also be recognised that Mosleys blackshirts were prevented from marching through London's East End in 1936 by *the public*, not by the police...

On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, a bunch of #anarchists, #antifascists, #Jews, #Irish workers, and other #WorkingClass people in London's East End fought the Met #Police and #Mosley's #BritishUnionOfFascists in the #BattleOfCableStreet. Never forget that worker #solidarity can win.

what do you think happened at Cable Street, buddy?
“#Patriots defended our nation in the #BattleOfCableStreet against #Fascists in 1936, three years before #WWii “If we are to disagree, can we do so agreeably?”

"The thousands of Jews, trade unionists, communists and Irish workers who assembled that day nailed the coffin of British #fascism and ensured their place in history forever as the #BattleOfCableStreet ’s victors."

And so we learn from history generations have to fight
And those who crave for mastery
Must be faced down on sight
And if that means by words, by fists, by stones or by the gun

Remember those who stood up for
Their daughters and their sons

Mosley and his black shirts marched on London, October 4, 1936.

100,000 Londoners met them on the streets, ready to fight.

Mosley got fucked up.
