New book chronicles socialist skinhead band The Redskins
Original: Socialist skinheads: New book tells story of 1980s working-class band The Redskins
A newly published book tells the story of The Redskins, the 1980s British working-class band known for fusing socialist politics with skinhead culture. The group blended soul and punk influences while openly championing anti-racist and socialist causes before disbanding after the death of frontman Chris Dean in the early 1990s. The book has drawn attention from left-wing publications and music fans interested in the era's anti-fascist music scene.
Why now: Interest in anti-fascist and socialist music history has been renewed by the book's release.
