New Cross Fire: Crime against the Black Community in London

43
years ago

18 January 1981,

A New Cross fire was unleashed in a home in eastern London, a supposed racist attack on the black community. Fascist attacks on black and Asian people were becoming the daily bread in England. When a house held a birthday party, in the early morning, the fire began. 13 young black men aged 14 to 22 died of roast. The police said the fire was on its inside and a demonstration of 20,000 people responded by calling for justice denouncing the assembly. They never punished anyone for the fact.
