This notebook describes how Never Again (nigdy Wiecej), a Polish anti-racism group uses a number of tactics to attract volunteers and spread information about hate crimes and racism in Poland.  Never again targets young people through concerts and football games and recruits them to join the cause.  Some of these volunteers become correspondents that collect and publish information about racism in Poland and send this information to the media. This tactic encourages the spread of information for general education.
