They Shall Not Pass: The Battle of Cable Street

They Shall Not Pass: The Battle of Cable StreetT02012717652
October, 1936. Three thousand fascists, led by Oswald Mosley, march on Cable Street in the heart of the Jewish East End. Six thousand Metropolitan Police officers are on hand to defend them. But London's socialists, trade unionists, immigrants and dock workers are ready to meet the fascists - and their message is clear and united: "They shall not pass."
Author Steven Berkoff
