Death of Kevin Gately : ウィキペディア英語版 | Death of Kevin Gately Kevin Gately (18 September 1953 – 15 June 1974) was a second year student of mathematics at the University of Warwick who died as a result of head injuries received in the Red Lion Square disorders in London. He was the first person to die in a public demonstration in Great Britain for at least 55 years, since the British Army shot two looters dead in Liverpool during the riots caused by a police strike in August 1919.〔(The media and political violence ), Richard L. Clutterbuck, MacMillan, 1981, ISBN 0333314840, p. 56〕〔(A History of Policing in England and Wales from 1974: A Turbulent Journey ), Timothy Brain, Oxford University Press, 2010, ISBN 0199218668, pp.12–15〕〔Richard Clutterbuck says he was "the first man killed in any political demonstration in England, Scotland or Wales since 1919", quoted in (Introduction to race relations ), Ernest Cashmore, Ellis Cashmore, Barry Troyna, Routledge, 2003 ISBN 1135386900, p. 175〕 ==Background== Gately was born in England to parents of Irish descent. He had red hair and was approximately 6' 9" tall; contemporary photos show him standing out above the crowd because of his exceptional height. He became a mathematics student at Warwick University, and was in his second year in June 1974, three months before his 21st birthday. He was not a member of any political group or party, and had no experience of demonstrations before Red Lion Square,〔(From the archive, 17 June 1974: Dead student fell under crowd ), The Guardian, 17 June 2010〕〔''Socialist Worker'', 22 June 1974, asserts that Gately had not previously been on a political demonstration.〕 although he was aware of the nature of the demonstration against the National Front and wished to take part.〔(''Only One Died'' ) by Tony Gilbert (published by K. Beauchamp 1975), ISBN 0-9504283-0-2, page 222: 'Sedley (for the N.U.S. at the Scarman Tribunal ) then pointed out, that practically every student who gave evidence was not a member of the I.M.G. nor was Kevin Gately.'〕 His girlfriend also attended the demonstration.
