Battlefield Hackney: The 43 Group & their fight against Britain's fascists 1946-1950
The Hackney History Festival returns to share Hackney's vibrant history with residents.
About This Event
The 43 Group was an anti-fascist organisation formed in the wake of WWII by Jewish ex-servicemen and women, in response to the return of the fascist followers of Oswald Mosley to the streets of Britain. Between 1946-50 the 43 Group waged a direct and often violent street campaign against the fascists, with Ridley Road, Dalston as the most prominent and violent battleground. In his talk Daniel Sonabend, author of We Fight Fascists: The 43 Group and the Forgotten Battle for Post-War Britain will tell the story of the 43 Group and their fight against fascism, with particular focus on the central importance of Hackney within the conflict.
