"White Riot" was the first single from 'The Clash' in 1977 and was also on their debut album. "White Riot" came about after Joe Strummer was involved in the Notting Hill Carnival riots in 1976. Fast forward to August 2011 and this song, along with another Clash song "London's Burning", comes to mind when watching the news of the riots in London and elsewhere in England.
