Some amateur and unique footage of black youths hanging out on “The Frontline”.
Part one includes some police-community relations including an arrest at 6:40 and a cop getting lumped at 7:05 – after which his helmet is used as football.
Part two is a bit more relaxed and includes a visit at 5:58 from reggae royalty Dennis Brown (of “Money In My Pocket” fame).
More context about the policing and community of Sandringham Road available in Hackney Community Defence Association’s “Fighting The Lawmen”.
There’s an audio guide to Sandringham Road as part of A Hackney Autobiography.
