Who comes to mind when you think of ‘standing firm in power and pride’? This year’s Black History Month theme will tell the story of many inspirational British figures, and we’re pleased that our founder, Lord Herman Ouseley, is being recognised and celebrated as one who helped change our country for the better. A year ago, he sadly passed away. We can’t think of many people in football who showed such courage, power and pride at a time of resistance when he set up Kick It Out 32 years ago. In our film to remember him, Sir Alex Ferguson described Herman as “fearless”. Others describe how he gave a voice to black players and made the game feel safer for many communities. We continue to draw strength from his power and pride at a time of political uncertainty and a rise in discrimination. If you want to know more about Lord Herman Ouseley and what impact he had on football, you can watch the whole film here: bit.ly/4728YFE Our thoughts are with his friends and family as we remember a truly great person, whose legacy continues to live on. #BHM #BHM2025 #BlackHistoryMonth
