Greendale Secondary School 3 Secondary 4E/ 5NA Preliminary Examination 2019 Humanities (Social Studies) 2272/2273 What can be done to tackle racism in Italian football? BACKGROUND INFORMATION Read this carefully. It may help you to answer some of the questions. Football is a very popular sport in Italy with millions of fans not just locally but around the world as well. Serie A , the highest level of competition in Italian football, is considered one of the best football leagues in the world . This reputation has enabled it to attract top footballing talents from around the world, which has led to a greater diversity of footballers playing in the league . However, incidents of racism over the years have often tainted the reputation of Serie A. On several occasions, black players were subjected to racist chants from fans of opposing teams during matches. Regulations have been in place for many years to tackle racism in professional football. For example, referees are given the authority to suspend a match should racist chants cont inue after public announcements ha ve been made asking for it to stop. Clubs can also be fined or have sections of the stadiums closed off if their fans are found to have participated in racist chants. Despite this, sports journalists from within Italy as well as around the world often criticise the Italian football authorities for not taking a firmer stance in stamping out racism in the league. Study the following sources to find out what can be done to tac kle racism in Italian football.
Greendale Secondary School 4 Secondary 4E/ 5NA Preliminary Examination 2019 Humanities (Social Studies) 2272/2273 Source A: A cartoon posted on Twitter by Italian Football TV (IFTV), a few days after African footballer Kalidou Koulibaly was subjected to racist abuse by fans of an opposing team during a Serie A football match. Posted December 2018. Source B: An e xtract from an interview with Gabriele Gravina, President of the Italian Football Association . Published by an international sports news website, February 2019. The new rules that we have introduced in the fight against racism will lead to incentives for clubs that promote good fans. When you feel that you are in the company of good fans and you make it clear how beautiful it is to support your team in a correct, clean and healthy way, people choose whether they want to be part of the good fans or the bad fans. Of course, there are more good fans around so, the idea of rewarding the club when their good fans turn on those bad fans, it's a huge success. Kalidou Koulibaly
Greendale Secondary School 5 Secondary 4E/ 5NA Preliminary Examination 2019 Humanities (Social Studies) 2272/2273 Source C: Comments by the Sporting Director of Italian football club AC Milan after a match against Lazi o. Two of their players were subjected to racist chants by sections of the Lazio fans. AC Milan lost the match 1-0. Published April 2019. We weren’t the ones who had to ask for the suspension (of the match), because we didn’t want it to look like an excuse for the result. The referee had to decide. But I think referees should be protected and helped more by the institutions, so they’re not left alone at such moments. We’ve issued a statement and we’ll ask for action to be taken. There are rules for intervening and fighting racism in the stadium. Just apply them. We can’t suffer what we suffered on Wednesday night. We accept the defeat and reject excuses, but we demand respect and justice. Source D: Comments by the President of Italian football club Cagliari, after a match between Cagliari and Juventus. Fans of Cagliari were accused of racially abusing Moise Kean, a black player from Juventus, after he celebrated a goal he scored in front of a section of Cagliari fans. Published April 2019. We cannot go around calling the entire Cagliari fans offensive things. If there were racist jeers, then our fans got it wrong, but it happened because of the disrespectful way Kean celebrated his goal and would have happened even if the goal scorer had a different colour of skin. All I heard were whistles and jeers. There’s no need to cast a shadow over the entire Cagliari fan base or the club. Source E: An extract from a statement by ‘Kick It Out’, an international organisation focused on tackling racism in football , after Juventus player Moise Kean suffered racist abuse during a football match against Cagliari. Published April 2019. Despite the referee asking for a public announcement calling for the racist chanting to stop, the abuse continued – but the game wasn’t suspe nded. A clear failure of enforcing proper procedures . This is the third year in a row that black players have been racially abused at Cagliari, and yet the Italian Football Association allow it to continue. Swift, decisive action against mass racist chanting must be taken now, and that means extended stadium bans or points deductions.

Extract 1 In 2018, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced Singapore’s intention to nominate Singapore’s hawker culture to be included in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List. If accepted, it will make the hawker culture a recognised cultural heritage of the world . However, critics say that this move will not necessarily save hawker cultu re. Many hawker practitioners are ageing, and not many of the younger generation are willing to pick up the trade due to the hard work and lo
