" The Carnival's roots date back to the Abolition
of Slavery
Act in 1833 when the first Caribbean carnival was
held in Trinidad Black Caribbeans took to the streets
for their own carnival party, with song, dance and
costumes. When the first significant numbers of
West
Indian immigrants came to the UK in the 1950s,
they brought their musical traditions. But what began
with harassment of individual black men by white gangs
blew up into a full-scale
riot in August 1958 which continued for weeks.
The following year, carnival's first British incarnation
took place in St Pancras Town Hall, organised by West
Indian Gazette editor Claudia Jones. "

THE NERVE
OF NELSON
MANDELA ... By Emanuel McLittle, September

E. McLittle |
"Silent
about South Africa's killings and rapes, where
white women and even small white children are
intentionally infected with the AIDS virus. To
suppress the truth about their brethren, world
wide, is their job"
"This has cut food
production down by 60 percent. The reason for
the mass fleeing is the near 1,500 murders of
small and large white farmers by black thugs carrying
military weapons, possibly distributed by the
ANC" |

| "Carnival
organisers lose backing." |
"The carnival in 2003 will
still happen. One of the major financial backers
of the Notting Hill Carnival has said it will no
longer fund the group which has run the event for
more than a decade.The Arts Council has decided
to side-step the Notting Hill Carnival Trust, which
co-ordinates and promotes the carnival, and give
money straight to performers"

By Notting Hill Carnival Photographer - Timothy
N. Holt" |
"In taking pictures at
the Notting Hill Carnival, his aim is to be an observer,
capturing images of the participants dancing, singing,
performing, or in other words doing what they want
to do, without making them self-conscious or aware
they are being photographed. He's made a point of
following several individuals and has photos of
them over the years growing from children into young
adults."

| Notting
Hill Carnival 25 – 26 August 2003 |
Come and join in the fun at
Europe’s biggest street party. Every year over
a million people flock to the streets of Notting
Hill to gaze at the floats, wiggle to the scores
of massive sound systems and soak up the true flavours
of the Caribbean. Sunday is traditionally Children’s
Day with the party really taking off on the Monday.
All five disciplines of carnival; Mas (costume),
Steelband, Calypso, Soca and Static Sound Systems,
are celebrated in this two day musical extravaganza.
Check out the excellent Sancho Panza and Good Times
sound systems or buy a map and scour it for a chance
to catch some big names playing for free! Carnival
sets London on fire in a multi-cultural blaze of
Caribbean spirit.
