| Description | Poster and four copies of a bilingual flyer in English and Punjabi giving details about a national demonstration and public rally in London organised by the Black People's Committee Against State Brutality, and supported by the Indian Workers Association and Awaz, Brixton Black Women's Group, against racism, fascism, racist immigration laws and police brutality and harassment. The demonstration was held on 3 June 1979.
The poster includes bullet points giving reasons for people to join the demonstration, while the flyer includes a statement reminding people of the racist policies adopted by successive Conservative and Labour governments of the 1960s and 1970s and warning that the new Conservative government, led by Margaret Thatcher, is likely to further restrict right of entry to the dependents of immigrant workers.
It was on this demonstration that Jagmohan Joshi, General Secretary of the Indian Workers Association, suffered a fatal heart attack. |
