Footnotes

Rock Against Racism (RAR) emerged in 1976 in response to racist attacks in the UK and the increasing support for the far-right group, the National Front. Two Carnivals were organised in London in 1978 in conjunction with the Anti-Nazi League, in April and September. The September event saw around 100,000 people marching from Hyde Park to Brockwell Park in Brixton, culminating in an open-air concert.
