The Chapeltown Riots of 1981 took place in the Leeds district of Chapeltown in West Yorkshire, England, during a time when many other areas of the UK were suffering similar problems (such as London, Birmingham and Liverpool). The riots unfolded in July 1981 from a background of racial tension, inner city poverty, poor housing and high unemployment (which was rising rapidly as a result of the recession at the time). This brought high tension, particularly amongst the area's Caribbean community, culminating in attacks on the local police. These weren't to be the last riots in the area. In 1987 there was further rioting in Chapeltown and in 2001 there was widespread rioting in nearby Harehills.〔http://www.opendemocracy.net/conflict-terrorism/leeds_2696.jsp〕 ==See also== *Chapeltown *Harehills *1975 Chapeltown riot *1987 Chapeltown riot *Harehills riot *List of race riots Other riots in the UK the same year *1981 Brixton riot - London *Handsworth riots - Birmingham *1981 Toxteth riots - Liverpool 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1981 Chapeltown riot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
