Sectarianism Documentary
After many months of hard work, we have finished making our sectarian documentary and have uploaded this on to YouTube! Our documentary focused on people’s experiences and perceptions of sectarianism within Edinburgh and aimed to highlight that sectarianism was still an issue in the modern day. In order to be able to make comparisons with what our participants were saying, we also carried out a survey which aimed to look at the issue of sectarianism in a number of different areas including religion, football, education and social media.
