The Real Skinheads

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

This clip gives a very brief history of the skinhead scene and how it unfortunately got taken over by the white power/neo Nazi element in the early 70s. Originally it was an offshoot of British mod and was a multi racial sub culture. The music associated with it was American soul/RnB, Jamaican ska, rock steady and reggae.
