Just looking back at our last trip to the US and when we hit Vegas! We played a show at the Wynn and checked out the stunning hotel that it is! Suites were a bit small 😂
A legendary throwback to two years ago today when we performed live at the blues to launch 🚀 the new album UB45 and world tour with @bcfc@greatesthitsuk and Jenny Powell!
“All through our lives there was always a rump
of the white working class who were willing to
answer the call to hate people with a different
skin colour.
Never a majority, but a minority big
enough to influence elections. It’s never been any different. Racism is passed on through families from generation to generation.
From our humble beginnings we’ve been
lucky enough to travel the world, many many
times.
We’ve met and made friends with people from
all over the world, From Europe, Africa,
America, Australia and New Zealand, the far
east, Russia. Every continent on the planet.
The single most important lesson we have
learned is that working class people have more
in common with each other, no matter where they come from, than they do with our various
elites, and the billionaire class.”
A huge thank you to @togetheralliance & @standuptoracismuk ,all of the amazing people who joined us to speak in Whitehall, the incredible artists and DJs over at Trafalgar Square & most importantly, thank you to over half a million people who attended the March today, to quote the great political philosopher WOLFY SMITH, ‘POWER TO THE PEOPLE’!
Big Love UB40
