Fortnight of Action 16th- 30th October 2008
 Show
Racism the Red Card is once again calling upon people from all sections
of the community to take a united stand against racism. Statistics show
a year on year increase in reported racist incidents in Scotland. Gone
are the days when racism is based only on colour, with racism towards
asylum seekers, refugees, migrant workers, the Irish and English communities
also occurring on a daily basis.
Show Racism the Red Card will endeavour to tackle racism in all its guises.
But we all have a role to play by challenging racist attitudes on our
streets and in our workplace. Our grants scheme can act as a catalyst
for long-term projects to be developed. Our free and low cost resources
can assist events and projects that are organised as part of the Fortnight
of Action to galvanise support for our anti racist message.
With your help we can continue to make the
Fortnight of Action a period of concerted action and tackle the scourge
of racism that affects our society.
