Welcome to my blog. I am a gay skinhead and a SHARP. I am also an author of skinhead books and my favorite author is Richard Allen, and no I don't style my writings after his books. My characters are as real as I can make them in my mind and all my books try to show my feelings against racial, sexual and religious hate. Being a skinhead is not just being a lout although that does help in a fight, but upholding a creed and brotherhood established by working class youth in the late 60's.

What is a skinhead
A guy or girl who believes in working class values and respects those who share the same beliefs. Not all skinheads have shaved heads, wear suspenders or wear boots, but these are good signs. Not all skinheads are racist, but unfortunately some are. They are "boneheads" to the rest of the skinhead world because of the blemish they have put on a proud group of working class kids. Skinheads are of every race, every religion, because it's not who you are, what race you are or any external factor. It's what is in your heart. Traditional skins look to their English and Jamaican roots for their lifestyle and their music (Oi, punk, ska, reggae, and rockabilly). SHARP (Skinheads against Racial Prejudice) skins are the democrats of the skinhead world, accepting all and defending their way of life. A skinhead friend of mine once told me that he only fights for 3 things: his family, his friends and his honour. This is what is important to skinheads, not "protecting the white race" or to carry out Hitler’s unfinished work.
It's something you are. It's not a style. It's not a fad. It's a way of life. Skinheads will live on as long as there are fat cats in power who don't give a shit about the youth of today. We're proud, we're pissed and we're here to stay.
