Jim Goad has produced a short film to accompany his latest essay, “The Punk Rock Roots of Punching Nazis,” on how punk went from toying with Nazi imagery to becoming intensely anti-fascist — and becoming a lot less interesting in the process. See below.

Here we are again. It was way back in the Eighties that the scambos were astroturfing outfits with names like “Skinheads Against Racism.” Go ahead and Google that. Keith Stimely and were doing a parody comic strip called “Bof the Skinhead,” wherein the skinheads didn’t really think about much other than getting a new pair of Doc Martens. Perhaps that was a Portland thing.

I think you’re referring to Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice (SHARP). I had multiple encounters with them in Portland.
