Don Letts 2016-10-09 Skinhead moonstomp

“Don paves the way for his new film Skinhead, which will be broadcast on Friday 14th October, with his moonstomping mix of the original movement’s best-loved sounds from the likes of Laurel Aitken, Desmond Dekker, Derrick Morgan and the Pioneers.
He says: “When I tell people my first point of entry into youth subculture was via skinheads, they look somewhat confused, not understanding I’m talking about the fashion version not the fascist version. I hope my film goes some way to clarifying what was the UK’s first real multi-cultural movement.”
In Skinhead, Don looks at this very particular and very provocative British subculture. He explores how skinhead has become associated with street fighting, trouble on the football terraces and violent racism in the public consciousness, both in Britain and around the world. He reveals that its origins actually lie in a cultural coming-together that could not be further from its tarnished image.”
