Round-up

1. Renowned clinical psychologist, Dr Shaun Whittaker has attributed the recent killing of a woman or women whose body parts were discovered next to the B1 road in Namibia to the country's inadequacy to address the problem of racism.

Without condoning that the perpetrator(s) might just as well be of the same color as the victim(s), Dr. Whittaker when approached for comment deduced that the perpetrator(s) were victims of race.

2. A Wigan MP is urging borough groups to come together for a week of action against racism in sport.The Kick It Out One Game One Community Week of Action will see organisations celebrate the contribution all communities are making to the game, while adding their voices to the call to challenge racism and discrimination in football.

What is the need for this? They already have the "Kick Racism Out of Football" campaign which has been running for several seasons, what do they expect another campaign, taking place over a single week, to achieve?
