U.S. officials have chosen to operate outside the bounds of law and basic morality \u2014 from supporting Israel\u2019s genocide in Gaza and illegal settlement expansion in the West Bank, to launching a direct military strike on Venezuela and kidnapping President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro and his wife, to escalating repression against migrants and racialized communities inside the U.S. itself that has even led to murder. These are not isolated policies, but interconnected expressions of an empire that uses violence in the U.S. and abroad to enforce its dominance.<\/span><\/p>

The Anti Fascist Football Coalition, comprised of key organizations in the countries hosting the World Cup 2026 (Canada, Mexico, US), are collaborating to implement shared objectives, strategies, and tactics in two phases to Boycott the World Cup and Boycott the U.S.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n The U.S. is dangerous. <\/h3>\n \t\t \t

Inside the U.S., state violence is increasingly directed at Black, Brown, and Indigenous people through dehumanizing rhetoric, mass surveillance, immigration raids, and impunity for law enforcement. This same logic of domination underpins U.S. actions abroad and repression at home: a system in which \u201cmight makes right.\u201d As a result, the communities most at risk from U.S. repression are also among the World Cup\u2019s most passionate fans and among the Global South nations participating in the 2026 Games.\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n FIFA is normalizing genocide. <\/h3>\n \t\t \t

Allowing the U.S. to host the World Cup or any other international games would be an affront to the victims of U.S. lawlessness and its support for an ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people. FIFA\u2019s own statutes commit it to respecting internationally recognized human rights, yet allowing the U.S. to host enables genocide, military aggression, racialized repression, and the mass criminalization of migrants, normalizing and legitimizing these crimes. In doing so, FIFA becomes complicit.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n International concern is clear. <\/h3>\n \t\t \t

Blatantly ignoring FIFA\u2019s own \u201chuman rights\u201d standards, 17 nations in the Global South scheduled to play in the World Cup face intensifying U.S. travel bans and Visa restrictions, further heightening risk for Black, Brown, and Indigenous fans and players.\nThe World Cup should not be used to launder state violence and normalize genocide and international gangsterism. Organizations and people of conscience must demand that FIFA move the games out of the U.S. and take a stand for people-centered human rights rather than empire, repression, and impunity.\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The conditions surrounding the World Cup are a microcosm of the broader war on global humanity being executed by the U.S. settler state.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With the U.S. as a host country for the Games, FIFA is a conscious enabler of the U.S. fascist agenda. Driven by its own profit-seeking and corporate interests, FIFA is whitewashing U.S. criminality by legitimizing and normalizing the U.S. as a rogue state.<\/span><\/p>

Shutting down FIFA alone would not stop the state\u2019s oppression. Imperialist violence would continue to manifest elsewhere in our region.<\/span><\/p>

As such, our task is clear. Rooted in People(s)-Centered Human Rights, we must work collectively to both dismantle U.S. systems of oppression and build structures grounded in collective people power, self-determination, and the highest forms of human dignity.<\/span><\/p>

We understand that this struggle extends beyond FIFA as a legitimizer for the U.S. settler state. Join the Global Network to fight for the advancement of People(s)-Centered Human Rights.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
