ABSTRACT
Racism in the US is not simply a black-white form of racism, with similar conditions being manifest in white relations with other people such as Asians and Hispanics. For the criteria of Cohen's processual model, generally racism conforms with the media and shock jocks acting as moral entrepreneurs- playing vital catalytic roles. When considering racism in the US educational systems, Comissiong contended it was "quite difficult to find a starting point from which to address the deepening gully of racially based inequities". In respect to racism in black-white relations, the UK fares little better than the US. In the UK, Islamophobic-base moral panics have attracted researchers where some have claimed moral panic surrounding religion seems to have overtaken the moral panic surrounding localised violence. Sport has provided an arena for much of the Islamophobia-based moral panic. A full historical analysis is important in developing a comprehensive of Islamophobia-based moral panics in schools and colleges.
