Hi,
I'm currently researching The 43 Group who were an anti-fascist direct
action group operating in London immediately after WW2. Currently not
finding a great deal written about them in academic literature but from
what I've read thus far there were communists also actively attending and
disrupting some of the same fascist meetings as the 43 Group and so
wondered whether anyone on the list might be able to point me towards some
archive material that give accounts of some of these events or make
reference to the 43 Group.
An obvious place to start would be the literature cited in the Wikipedia
article about the 43 Group:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/43_Group
Incidentally, as a young man Vidal Sassoon, later more famous as
hairstylist to the stars, was an active member of the 43 Group.
Since one of the places where they were most active in opposing the BUF
was Ridley Road Market in Dalston (in the Borough of Hackney) the
archives in the local library, which is now called after C.L.R. James,
might be a good place to start.
