DJ and writer Dave Haslam has announced “One Nation Under a Groove,” a protest party “in response to Morrissey’s divisive views, and his support for the far-right,” to be held near Moz’s upcoming Manchester gig, as The Guardian points out. According to the event’s Facebook page, attendees of the free event should expect “solidarity, love, unity, positivity, reggae, funk, soul, and disco,” with music provided by local DJs. Donations will be collected for the organization Love Music Hate Racism.

The party will take place on July 8 at Manchester’s Revolution bar, located near Castlefield Bowl, the venue where Morrissey will perform, from 3 p.m. to midnight. “Morrissey fans on their way to or back from his concert are more than welcome,” the Facebook event page says.

In recent years, the ex-Smiths singer’s views on race have become particularly strident. Morrissey has described the Chinese people “a sub-species”, heavily criticised Angela Merkel for opening German borders to refugees, and has gone on record supporting far-right figures like Anne Marie Waters and EDL founder Tommy Robinson. He does, however, claim to have “Muslim friends.” Morrissey hasn’t lived in the city for thirty years – he lives abroad in tax exile – and has now joined the ranks of various right-wing politicians, tax exiles, tabloids, and media hate-slingers seeking to divide our community. Manchester is our home, it’s a city built on immigration, a city with an amazing legacy of great bands and wonderful clubs. How do we counter the hate? Let the music do the talking; by throwing a free party, a celebratory all-dayer of beautifully diverse soul-filled, hope-filled music...

Morrissey’s manager Peter Katsis has since responded to Haslam in the below statement posted on Morrissey’s Facebook. “ He is using this platform for his own agenda. At the end of the day, bullshit is still bullshit.”
