I am disturbed by the Black Lives Matter banners in the stadium. BLM are nothing more than a terrorist organization that coordinate and initiate riots, arson and looting at great expense to innocent business owners and communities. We’ve all seen the TV footage making it undeniable.

You watch too many dodgy links mate.

Tell you what, first come to the UK to take a look. How many times does it have to be said BLM is a philosophy not an organisation.

You might as well say medicine is a bad thing because the Nazis were into R&D on sterilisation. BLM is a global movement that is different in every territory.

Second, actually go to a BLM rally in Croydon if you are a Palace fan and listen to what is said. I think you are living in a bubble.

Third, your idea that BLM activities in the UK are 'terrorist' would be viewed as a little far fetched, unless you count using a megaphone and giving away free water and masks as terrorism.

And finally, you will find by far the majority of Palace fans and players are strong advocates of BLM, no matter what is said on this Board. So maybe just accept you are in the minority eh?

Don't you dare claim to speak for the majority of Palace fans, Parish knows what he is doing and what his support base is thinking.

In the UK BLM and keep racism out of football are both on a par. In the USA it sounds like there is a large difference between them.
You will not get an answer to your question from the club because anyone who tries to discus racism is immediately shouted down as a racist in the UK from one side or the other, so it is one of those subjects that no one will put down an answer on twitter or email as it could be held against them a a later date.
I believe that all football ground have to have the BLM signs as I assume dictated by the Football Association.

People who write and like to say this - totally miss the point and tend to either ‘consciously or subconsciously’ feel uncomfortable with the notion of Black Lives Matters being vocalised or presented visually to them.

The when people feel they are being viewed as racist if the talk about racism says more about the individual than the points they are putting across.

It’s been very interesting and fascinating observing posters comments across the many months on Hol as a black male related to the topic as whole.

There has been a lot of ignorance without individuals even realising their ignorance or narrow mindedness.

Can this be merged with the other threads where the same arguments have been played out ad nauseum already? Please - a mental health plea.

I very much doubt it will be replaced with another worthy cause soon enough.

Judging by the amount of racism aimed at prem footballers this week and the debate that has surrounded these hate crimes and a person being arrested over the weekend for racist bile against Sawyers from West Brom.
