According to those organized, the proposal is to expand the debate on the topic and reinforce the message that football should be a space for healthy coexistence, free from any form of prejudice. New meetings between fan representatives are already planned for the coming months, with the aim of deepening the project and defining the next steps of the campaign.
The initiative comes amid a series of episodes of racism recorded in South American football in recent years and reinforces the position of the two fans that discriminatory attitudes can no longer be tolerated in any environment linked to sport. For Gaviões da Fiel and La 12, football, due to its reach and cultural importance, needs to serve as an instrument of unity between people, promoting diversity and respect for differences.
