The Grunwick strike was the first dispute where
a majority of strikers who were from ethnic minorities received widespread
support from the labour movement. This pamphlet and DVD should be seen by those
who did not live through the event. The strike also gives a
different twist to the current debate about multiculturalism - there was no
doubt in those days that the strikers at Grunwick belonged in the trades union
movement, regardless of their ethnic background or culture. Workers from all
different cultures were united at Grunwicks.
