What is racism?
In general, racism is a belief that a particular race or ethnicity is inferior or superior to others. Racial
discrimination involves any act where a person is treated unfavourably because of their race,
nationality, colour, descent or ethnic origin.
Racism may take the form of stereotyping, name calling or insults, negative commentary in the
media, speeches at public assemblies,, property damage or abuse on the internet. Racism can also
take the form of excluding people from accessing services ,, employment, education or sporting
activities.
Racism can occur systemically, as the result of policies, conditions and practices that affect a broad
group of people. For example, research shows that systemic racism can result in Aborig inal and
Torres Strait Islander students experiencing poorer outcomes in education, or job applicants without
Anglo -Saxon names finding it difficult to gain job interviews.
In its most serious form, racism is demonstrated in behaviours and activities that embody race hate,
vilification, abuse and violence – particularly experienced by groups who are visibly different because
of their cultural or religious dress, their skin colour or their physical appearance.
Ultimately, racism is a tool to gain and maintai n power. It is also inextricably linked with socio –
economic factors, and frequently reflects underlying inequalities in a society
Racism in football .
Racism i n football is the abuse of players, officials, and fans because of their skin colour, nationalit y,
or ethnicity. Some may also be targeted because of their association with an opposing team.
However, there have been instances of individuals being targeted by their own fans.
In European association football, there is racism operating at the instituti onal and fan cultural levels.
In England, the upper levels of authority are majority white and give jobs as coaches or other
positions to other already known white men rather than making public job postings. Stereotypes
about coaches of colour, that they a re more physical than intellectual, limit the accessibility of
people of colour into the football industry
UEFA took care of this and created a platform to send out a key and unequivocal message: No to
racism!
