Class War issue 81: Bash The Fash: Anti-Fascist Recollections 1984-93
by K Bullstreet (£2 from Class War or from Kate Sharpley Library, BM Hurricane, London, WC1N 3XX)
This is history written in a different style to the world of dull academia or sober suited politicians. Informal, biased and very, very amusing K Bullstreet takes us into the necessary world of anti-fascism. Our favourite stories included the black guy who jumped in for BNP member Derek Beackon because he thought he was being mugged, and the member of Liverpool AFA who not only no platformed NF member Derek Holland but relieved him of his watch!
Some groups and individuals may quibble that their group or action does not receive sufficient coverage and the text does certainly contain the odd error (the Macc Lads for example were never a Blood & Honour band and nothing is gained by saying they were), but we recommend this pamphlet as the first in hopefully a series of pamphlets covering anti-fascist history.
