What is Racism?
Racism is when someone thinks different
skin colour or religious beliefs make some
people better than others.
Racists bully people who are different to
them. They do this by name-calling or
violence.

Football
There have been many cases in football.
Mainly with players but also managers.
When Frank Rijkaard of Barcelona started
managering the club the Spanish began
giving racial comments. It has now
stopped.

Formula 1
In Barcelona the Spanish painted
themselves black and wore black wigs.
They chanted songs. They had t-shirts on
discriminating Lewis Hamilton. Only
because of his colour and that Fernando
Alonso doesnt like him.

Political Correctness
The English Government have changed the
nursery rhyme Baa Baa Black Sheep to
Baa Baa Rainbow Sheep because he
thought people were being offended.
