The Battle of Bamber Bridge

[@gordongourlay7423]

What a great story, well told. Thank you.

[@eddiebirdie1545]

I'm very proud to say that I'm from Bamber Bridge 'a brigger' and in one of those photos you can see my Dads house, in Britain we don't see colour we see people.

[@2222quinny]

You should be very proud❤

[@Page-Hendryx]

Uh huh. Good luck with your immigration disaster. You don't see color, but color sees YOU...

[@diannel4698]

I'd heard about this incident years ago but not in so much depth. So very interesting, thank you. I just checked and it's only 19 miles away from me. I'll put it on my to visit list.

[@eddiebirdie1545]

Hiya the Hob Inn is still there.

[@2222quinny]

God bless Bamber bridge and the people who lived and still live there❤❤

Very informative chapter!

Thank you. Racism is not dead, but it is on life support -- kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as 'racists' - Thomas Sowell. Race and Culture. Sowell. Can recommend.

[@Sarahk150]

Great and well told. Thank you.

[@donquixote3927]

And yet to listen to the politicians, we're more racist now despite decades of familiarity with dozens of nationalities.

This really needs proper English subtitles. The auto generated ones don't cut it.

[@worldwrite]

We'll get on to it as soon as we can !

[@declanshanahan3888]

Subtitles? they are speaking English. Are you foreign?

[@EileenHall-j9f]

Why do you need sub titles? I don’t understand

[@corydorastube]

@@EileenHall-j9f Some people are dumb. They may be deaf. English may not be their first language. When I was learning to speak French I always put the subtitles on when watching a TV program or a movie. I still do if the dialogue is complicated.

But STILL TODAY Black Americans are Always the First to stand up for the USA! HOW and WHY? 🇬🇧😢

[@Page-Hendryx]

That's absurd, lol.

[@lecturesfromleeds614]

Money? Job opportunities?

[@lecturesfromleeds614]

Imagine how dumb these people in racially segregated towns in the US were? I mean, if you own a business and you have any brains, you aren't going to turn down polite customers that don't cause any problems simply because they're black? Thats something i just can't compute!

Let's get a load of southern to talk about Brig ...which is in Lancashire (Northern England ) 🙄😒
