Antifascism part 2: Beyond Cable Street

This 2-part conversation brings together organisers in Manchester to discuss community organising as anti-fascist strategy.

In this episode, we talk more about what it looks like to fight fascism at the community level. We think about what we can learn from antifascism in East London in the 1930s, and how to build solidarity with people susceptible to racist narratives. We discuss the atomisation of life in Britain, the aftermath of the miners’ strike, the loss of shared spaces, and the need for robust community relationships in fighting far right radicalisation. We talk about the kind of conversations and experiences that can counter racism in communities, and how we can build rather than react, in light of the crises we face.

With Jamil Keating from Greater Manchester Tenants Union, Zara Manoehoetoe from Kids of Colour and Harpurhey Neighbourhood Project, and Dale Johnson from Harpurhey Neighbourhood Project.
