Shaka Hislop, co-founder of SRtRC, says:
“Show Racism the Red Card has always produced wonderful films that capture the histories and stories of racism, telling the stories of the very human toll on some of sport’s greatest artisans.
Our latest production echoes those earlier films, again adding voices and stories of heartbreaking impact and upliftment. This film will greatly support the organization’s work in both schools and workplaces.”
Show Racism the Red Card have a proud record of over 28 years of harnessing the high profile of professional footballers to combat racism through anti-racism education. This new film features some of the best men and women’s players in the game, talking about their experiences of racism and giving advice to young people.
This film will be launched with our partners the Teachers Union: The National Education Union on Wednesday 10th of April and will then be freely available via our Education Hub and YouTube site. Over the last year an estimated 1.14 million young people have benefited from anti-racism lessons downloaded from our Education Hub.
