I've been helping with the promotion for the Oxford LMHR fundraisers and thought i'd let you guys know about the big London carnival in April. The carnival is free but donations are always welcome.

Its basicallly the big anti-BNP rally and its the 30th anniversary carnival after they started the anti-fascist rock music movement back in '78.

First acts announced....

Speakers include Tony Benn, Derek Simpson (Unite), Mark Serwotka (PCS), Weyman Bennett (LMHR) and Gemma Tumelty (NUS).

More speakers and major acts will be announced every week until Carnival ’08.

Highlights of our anniversary Rock Against Racism carnival will include:

* Three stages – two live outdoor stages + big dance marquee
* Some of the biggest and most exciting contemporary acts: hip-hop / indie / grime / bhangra / rock / reggae / dubstep / r&b / funky house / jungle
* Stars of the original 1978 Carnival playing live
* Unique collaborations
* Carnival procession against racism leading to the main event
* Speakers, debates and information on fighting racism and fascism
