Police in Manchester have begun recording attacks on members of sub-cultures, such as goths, emos and punks, as hate crimes. But how do you define and protect these groups?
The problem of hate crimes against sub-cultures has been of mounting concern since the murder of Sophie Lancaster in 2007.
The student and her boyfriend were set upon by a gang of teenagers in a park. The victims were targeted because they were goths.
A common question we often get in our mainstream society is, "What is Goth?". It's an inquiry that has come up so much that the artist, Voltaire, actually wrote a whole book to answer to satisfy the inquisitive. He wrote it because he was exhausted of explaining to people on aeroplanes while touring what genre of music he performs. His book, "What is Goth?", has become an easy answer for those of us who are tired of hearing that question and a complete answer for anyone who is curious enough to pursue it.
I'm very pleased to announce the long overdue return of being able to order prints of your pictures here on Gothic BC with prints starting at $1.65 for a 4" × 6" print.
