An observation made on the eve of the cruel elimination of the Blues from the World Cup by South Africa, but the fight continues on and around the field. The mobilization and actions of Montpellier Jean-Bernard Moles have just been rewarded by the presentation of the LICRA d’Or trophy. LICRA – International League Against Racism and Anti-Semitism – works daily alongside victims of racism and anti-Semitism to provide them with legal advice and support and can also be at their side in court, so that they can assert their rights. .
The leaders were sensitive to the leading role of the Cadet, which fights more than ever against all discrimination in sport. Its mission, which is recent and now recognized and encouraged, is a formidable effort very well transformed.
