This might be a double definition.

'raised fists' is the first definition.
'dukes' can be an answer for 'fists' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not sure about the 'raised' bit.

'ellington and wellington?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dukes that I've seen before include "eg 21, 22 and Plaza-Toro" , "Noblemen" , "Titled gents or slangy fists" , "Peers of the realm" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
