The EKF strongly condemns discrimination of any kind and will strive to ensure
that Karate in England is both diverse and inclusive. We are proud to be the
representative body of such a diverse Federation. We are dedicated to promoting
equality and valuing the diversity within the EKF and the members we serve.
We as a nation are facing testing times,
as recent events have again highlighted that
Racism and inequality continues to be an issue
within our society. It has opened wounds and scars o
f many of our members that have had to suffer at the
hands of the evil just because of the colour of their skin.
Karate has the power to break down barriers across communities
and we remain deeply committed to removing all forms of discrimination
from within Karate in England and Worldwide. We condemn wholeheartedly
the murder of George Floyd at the hands of Minnesota Police and stand
in full solidarity with the global #blacklivesmatter movement.
We also stand in solidarity with all those who are unjustly treated
because of their race or ethnicity and the EKF support the continued fight
for justice and equality. We will strive to ensure that the
EKF leads the way as we stand against racism with all our members.
