White Defence League
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
|
"The end of World War II had seen a marked increase in African-Caribbean migrants to Britain. By the 1950s, white working-class "Teddy Boys" were beginning to display hostility towards black families in the area, a situation exploited and inflamed by groups such as Oswald Mosley's Union Movement and other far-right groups such as the White Defence League, who urged disaffected white residents to "Keep Britain White"." |
