A group of about 200 football fans from Birmingham City football club marched through Birmingham City Centre last week to “speak against racism as football supporters.”

One fan said, “It’s well known that Birmingham City is a multi-cultural club with a big multi-cultural fan base.”

“After events that have been happening in the last few weeks … we wated to show them that we’re not going to let racism take over again.”

Another fan said, “It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, we all respect each other.”

-        First ask the children what the photo is about – what do you think the people are doing?

-        What do you notice about the people in the photo?

-        How are they similar, how are they different?

-        What brings them together?

-        What does multicultural mean?

-        “events that have been happening in the last few weeks” what do you think he means?

-        “We’re not going to let racism take over again” what time do you think he is talking about?

-        How are the fans showing they are against racism?

-        “It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white, we all respect each other.” Why is this like our school?

-        What can we learn from the football fans?

Why is this about no outsiders?
