Sectarianism Discussion

This discussion will explore the particular nature of sectarianism in Scotland, the rights of those involved in marches, territories and organisations to hold their beliefs and faiths, the rights of those affected, and examine the responsibilites of organisations to challenge their members or supporters who abuse the human rights of others. The discussion will be introduced by a series of short films:

Hacked Off
Hacked Off is the result of a six month collaboration and conversation between artists Jane McInally and Anne Elliot and a group of Glasgow cab drivers in which they discuss Old Firm games, march days and the changing nature of sectarianism in the city.

Rebelland
Over a six month period GoMA artist in residence, Anthony Schrag and writer in residence, Magi Gibson encouraged young people to explore the issues of sectarianism, territory and neighbourhood. The young people talked of a violent youth gang culture where, rather than stemming from sectarianism or football affiliation, violence was territory-based, or simply directed against someone identifiably different.

Perfectly Wholesome
In January 2006 City Councillors involved in Blind Faith identified those they thought could provide an insight into sectarianism in Glasgow. They began as a series of research interviews, with key figures such as Ian Wilson (Grand Master of the Orange Order in Scotland), Jim Slaven (National Organiser for Cairde Na h'Eireann) and Kevin Smith (Assistant Chief Constable of Strathclyde Police).
