Windrush - Part 8

- A lot of white people were shocked and it was a multi racial funeral - Turning point where people agreed the violence should stop


- General election 1959 - 'Down with Mosley'


- Mosley only gained 2000 votes and retired from politics


- Being able to speak your mind - Behaviour was different


- New social scene 'Blues Party'


- A new music genre came about 'Ska'


- 'My boy lollipop' was a core song from the West Indian market to the West end


- A different and exciting culture


- 60s began to swing but to Caribbean flavour


- 'Jamaicanisation' of white culture


- Caribbean music stapled the thriving night scene
