šŸ–Øļø Print Article

The Black Alliance for Peace and other organizations have called for a boycott of the 2026 World Cup being held in the United States. Before any matches were played, the U.S. banned players, fans, and officials, and even forced the Iranian team to stay in Mexico and fly to their U.S. matches. Austin Cole, who is one of three co-coordinators of the Black Alliance for Peace, explains why a boycott of the World Cup and the U.S. are necessary.
