Growing up in the 70’s/80’s as a mixed race girl in the UK, I remember those ‘looks’ from neighbours! Getting called ‘P*ki’ even though I’m half Jamaican. My white mum trying to ‘tame’ my hair. An amazing short film!

Good little film. Such a strange and paradoxical time though. Skinheads, though starting off as a movement that was racially harmonious, listening to ska and reggae, eventually ending up largly going in the opposite direction and being infiltrated by racist politics. It's sad that so many today that still associate skinheads with racism are not aware of the movement's original and true inter-racial origins. Thankfully there are many original non- racists skins about even today. I could sadly imagine them unjustly being wrongly labelled racist when the opposite is the case. Must be very frustrating for them.

Yeah this is something they can’t get their head round over here in North America. I moved from UK in 1990 ... Ive tried to explain this weird transition when skinhead moved from 2Tone to NF and people here don’t believe me. Same with how u could have black and white best mates in high school. The one would go NF after school and their own black mates from school would be “off limits” for a bashing but anyone else black was considered fair game. Wot weird set of rules.

@@KarmasAbutch Yep Real skinhead was before that 2tone 79 early 80's revival of ska, based on black and white working class culture and the music was reggae and old ska bluebeat trojan labels. It all started to go stupid when those cunts hijacked the movement and the crossover white working class punk labelled Oi went more and more extreme and turned it into a nationalist fascist movement and they abandoned any black influence - fucking idiots. I used to go to punk gigs in a jamaican club and it was harmonious until those wankers showed up.

A great film which reminds me of growing up in London in the seventies. In those days of Ska music and skinheads and the paradox of national front skinheads who liked Ska. A scary time too because walking down the road past skinheads it was difficult or impossible to tell if they were the black-friendly skinheads or the black-hating ones. I had some black skinhead friends too - how much more difficult and scary it must have been for them too.

Skinheads were punk and ska hence your black leader, the national front stole the skinhead look and that's where racism came about. True skinheads were not racist! Nor were followers of two-tone which is how these guys dressed. So the story is bent out of shape apart from the ginger skinhead who you could call National Front but he was missing tattoos. There were times that you could only tell if you were safe by the badges and tattoos.

The NF came to my hometown in the late 70s for a march. They got battered along the marching route by white, black and the odd Asian. I was just a kid, but the NF scared me more than any other group. We even spotted our neighbour on the local news that night, marching along. Mum and dad didn't speak to him after that.

Really intelligent film. UK Ska showed the way in 81 to oppose racism through music. Bands like the Clash, who supported Rock Against Racism, gave a platform for bands like the Specials. Black and White standing against the NF. Pauline Black of the Selecter, has written a truly superb 2-tone memoir ‘Black By Design’ that should be read by anyone who appreciates this film.

A fantastically well crafted, yet succinct account to tackling the issue of British multi-culturalism/social integration in post-WWII and Windrush Britain. Rings loudly of Shane Meadows, which I feel is a definite positive, with incredibly strong performances and one hell of a script. I could close my eyes and cast my mind back to growing up in east London, when 6 members of the same family were killed in Walthamstow, after a National Front petrol bomb was slipped through their letter box one night. Yep, like the film points towards, there were times it was that bad. (See 'Yunus Khan Close or 'Belgrave Road' in London E17, circa 1981/2, and it's backstory). The dialogue in Beverley rings incredibly true, coming across as accomplished, polished, but most importantly REAL. While we the viewer are treated to en explosive finale, it's important to remember this is one of the truest reflections many have banished to the depths of their collective sub-consciousness. Those memories never really go away, continuing to lurk in the background. From being accused of not integrating enough, to abuse from the same people when you wore an England shirt over the wrong colour skin. You wanted to shout "Make your f*****g mind up!" The irony of mainstream ska as the musical movement of choice for extreme right-wing skinheads has never been lost on me and, as such, the film gravitates to a potentially unifying, multi-cultural movement rooted in a love for the same music. Such hopes were strangled at birth at the time, as the film illustrates, and remains both a baffling and disturbing social and historical twist. Would love to be kept posted of any future projects by the producers. Thoroughly entertaining, informative, moving and accurate. 11/10

skinhead culture started among young English and Jamaican working-class communities in 1960s London to embrace the reggae music and culture. In 1969 "Skinhead MoonStomp" was released by Symarip. It was the first album to celebrate the British and Jamaican Skinhead music.In the earlier stages of the movement, a considerable overlap existed between early skinhead subculture, mod subculture, and the rude boy subculture found among Jamaican British and Jamaican immigrant youth, as these three groups interacted and fraternized with each other within the same working class and poor neighbourhoods in Britain.

I've seen so many of these film/documentary over the years , In 69 I was a young skinhead from west London . So I have an understanding and a feel for this stuff ! You'd normally associate Cass Pennant to football violence - door work or Big Frank Bruno , but the truth of the matter ! Apart from the accents , he's got it bang on . Would I go to the cinema and pay to watch , the full length version ? Every day of the week ...... Short story One of my pals was dying from cancer a few years ago , I wrote to West Ham football club to ask if they could send a signed team photo ? They sent a passport size photo of Mark Noble ... Then I saw Roy Shaw at one of Joey Poyles shows , Roy was with a girl that had connections with West Ham . I spoke to her about my pal suffering at the hands of this hidden disease ....she was so understanding and promised to put things right ! Sadly , it just didn't happen ..she must get asked everyday by some punter for something like that ... and "Yes" Welsh Phil did win ! Then I was having a conversation with a fella known as Big Mark , a boxing coach and a man respected in the manor .... told him about my pals plight and to be honest , he was on deaths door but still managed two pints of Stella a day ! Anyway ... we spoke about Sean's cancer, and how this old bin man had loved West Ham before he could walk ! Big Mark invited me to a pub out Iver way ...travelling country good and proper . I think it was called the Gurkha ? There I met with some of West Ham's old boys ...A fella called Pants and some proper Herbert's ! They had come all that way to give me the biggest bag of West Ham stuff , for Sean Clark my pal .... In amongst it was a signed book by Cass Pennat , so now I thank you Pants Big Mark and all the boys for making Sean's last few days .... Well worth living as he smiled laughed and passed away ....

Yay, original suedehead! The clubs and blues we used to go to were a good mix, some great sounds and the vibe was always on the music. Kinda felt the ending was a little out of time, but there was plenty of memories there to make it a decent little short film. Well done, Cass.

I would love to see this being a feature length film. This was excellent. It was really cool seeing Neville Staple from The specials in it also with Vicky McClure from This is England.

Fucking classic! Growing up I could never tell if a skinhead was cool or not at first glance. I met people on both sides and over all the scene was always outcast, and violence was always around the corner and even at the gigs. The rhythms and flow of ska and reggae was a crucial light and vibe in a very dark time for many people. To this day you will catch me skanking and swinging baby! I will be listening to ska for the rest of the day.

I enjoyed that. Makes me feel very grateful and fortunate that I grew up in a nice part of South East Essex where even though I was one of the only ethnic kids (I'm half Bajan/half white) there, I never experienced anything close to the racism that "Beverly" or "Carl" experienced. I know it's a lot different for those who grew up in most parts of London or the North for example. I'm 45 so I definitely remember the tone of what was going on elsewhere in the country at the time. Also, my older White stepsister went through many phases from Mod to Punk to Goth to Metalhead and one of her boyfriends was a skinhead. He was a nice guy though so that was my first impression of what I thought ALL skinheads were like. I learnt later that there are 'S.H.A.R.P.'s which stands for 'Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice', of which he was one of them. I also knew a guy who was an ex-skinhead and he was just like one of the skins in this short film i.e. he would go around getting into fights with Blacks and other minorities and then go to Ska nights with his other racist skin pals. I think that's what confuses a lot of people in the comment section as to how can these guys be racist NF thugs and yet go to Ska and Reggae nights. Beats me to this day to be honest! Also, big shout to Christine Staple if she happens to read this (wife of Neville who's sat next to him in the short). I went out with her briefly nearly 20 years ago now! Top lass and I'm so pleased at how she's doing now :-)
