Nike are starting a new anti racism campaign though I would suggest it is also an excellent marketing oportunity for them, anyway...
STAND UP SPEAK UP
"...Racism is the biggest problem facing football across Europe. People may think it has disappeared, but it hasn't. It's time for us all to take a stand - players, fans and authorities. It's time to stand up and speak up." - Thierry Henry
Unfortunately racism remains a serious issue in football. An issue that the players alone cannot tackle. One voice can't drown out a sea of racist abuse from a crowd, or retaliate to racist taunts from one sick individual. But together, we can make ourselves heard.
STAND UP SPEAK UP is a new campaign, supported by the players, which aims to give the silent majority of proper, decent fans the confidence to voice their disapproval against racist abuse.
The campaign will adopt the symbol of a black and white wristband which will be available for a donation throughout Europe. All proceeds will go to a fund dedicated to helping groups across Europe who work tirelessly to tackle racism in football.
