As part of the international 'Red Card' Israeli Racism campaign to stop UEFA holding the 2013 European Under-21 Championships in the Apartheid state in June - http://redcardapartheid.weebly.com/ - WFPSC has organised an awareness action for Saturday afternoon at the last 'O's match of the season. Not only will we be talking to fans and raising their awareness as they enter the ground, encouraging them to sign up to kick racism out of the beautiful game, but we'll also take the time to support our local team and watch the match! We will be joined by local trade unionists and anti-football-racism campaign activists from around London to help get the message across. It'll be a tremendous afternoon - really inspiring - so please come along with bags of enthusiasm and energy! To confirm you are coming, please email wfpsc@yahoo.com, or message us on www.facebook.com/walthamforestpsc or twitter @wfpsclondon
