" 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 19,

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"

| Photographs
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."

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.
