As part of International Clash Day, Larry Mizell Jr. chatted with The Clash’s videographer Don Letts about the band’s legacy and the culture clash of punk and reggae.
Earlier this month, KEXP celebrated a holiday we invented called International Clash Day. The Clash stood for a lot of things. As Clash member Joe strummer once said, “We’re anti-fascist, we’re anti-violence, we’re anti-racist, and we’re pro-creative. We’re against ignorance.”
As part of the celebration, Larry Mizell Jr. chatted with The Clash’s videographer Don Letts about the band’s legacy and the culture clash of punk and reggae.
