i missed this announcement. but thought it was worth posting even late. It comes from New York City antifascists and skinheads who DJ soul, reggae, rocksteady, ska and rock n roll. Demonstrates the ongoing culture building that is essential for an antifascist movement.

Aug. 14th Friday nite
In honor of the TEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY of our weekly skinhead reggae, ska and soul DJ night here in NYC (first Heavy Manners Mondays, then Move Your Mule Fridays).
This party should go til the sun comes up!
Tons of DJs will be coming thru the spot, and we will be spinning on two floors.
This has been a very good Summer for RASH-NYC, as well as the traditional ska/ rocksteady/ reggae scene here in NYC. Several new bands (The Hard Times, The Forthrights, Jammyland All-Stars… ). The old stalwarts like The Slackers, The Blue Beats and King Django are still at it. Too many shows and parties to mention (2 days of Lee Perry, including a free show!) And it’s nice to see new blood hanging around, all the kids in their early to mid-20’s.
