For the first time ever two Arsenal supporters? organisations will join together to campaign against racism in football as part of Kick It Out?s annual week of action.
AISA and REDaction have joined forces to produce thousands of leaflets which will be distributed to Arsenal supporters attending this Saturday?s (28/10/06) Premier League game against Everton at The Emirates Stadium.
The leaflet, on the theme ?The United Nations of Arsenal? is in keeping with Arsenal?s traditional motto, ?Victory Through Harmony?. Arsenal supporters are proud of our team which has been assembled from around the globe. We want Arsenal supporters of every race and creed to know that their fellow supporters welcome them positively as part of the Arsenal family.
AISA and REDAction are delighted to have co-operated to put out this leaflet, and look forward to jointly working with other supporters groups in the future. There can be absolutely no place for racism on the pitch or in the stands at our club.

I love the concept… shame KICK IT OUT doesn’t allow you to buy t-shirts online… great cause though.

These kick it out campaigns are jolly good and all that but when people like Stag do a preview before a game could someone bother to push it through along with articles like this? (rhetorical), looks like another weekend of typing comments under the T.V schedule.

I sent in (2) PREVIEWS!
One with us playing on the road…. doh?!
Which I then corrected with us playing at home.
So I definitely did a little preview… but mostly a space for us to comment.
Hopefully, it gets posted!

This Kick It Out campaign is stupid and pointless, the only way to get rid of racism is to stop talking about it. They don’t talk about it or have these Kick It Out annuals in Spain or Italy or France or Germany so why in England? Also the United Nations of Arsenal thing sucks aswell. What’s the logic behind that, they have it on the internet to download and when people do download them, what will they do with it? It will just go in the bin and that’s it. This whole thing is just garbage and you Americans are just ridding on the bandwagan because they bring this crap up. You all don’t even know the reasons and what’s going on with this campaign, you just see and hear things across the pond and then bring them up on this site. Well done MikeK you’ll make a good jounalist oneday just don’t try looking for vacancies in England with rubbish like that.
