I love punk music and old school punk music but I never really liked the Clash. I think it's because I can't understand how they are anti-racist and yet wrote a song like "White Riot". :(

White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own
White riot - I wanna riot
White riot - a riot of my own

Black people gotta lot a problems
But they don't mind throwing a brick
White people go to school
Where they teach you how to be thick

The song 'White Riot' was inspired by the Notting Hill riots which took place on 30th August 1976, black youths clashed with Police at a carnival in the English town. Clash members Joe Strummer, Paul Simonon, and their manager Bernie Rhodes were there and got caught up in the riots, taking a stand against the police. Strummer felt that young white people should express their outrage over oppressive government just as blacks were, through direct action and protest.
