ANTHONY JOSHUA GIFTS BULLIED BLACK KID

Former world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua has thrown his support behind a Black schoolboy targeted by an alleged race-hate attack in the U.K.

In a disturbing video that went viral in mid March, the youngster is seen being pushed and punched by a White kid before being made to kiss his shoe in the city of Carlisle. Four teenagers have been arrested and released on bail over the incident that sparked outrage nationwide.

Joshua sent the youngster a message of support and boxing gloves which were delivered by our brothers @Raspectrebbelion and @ForeverFamilyForce. They also offered him lessons in self-defence.

According to media reports, the boy had recently moved to Carlisle from Zimbabwe to be with his mum. For legal reasons we’ve blurred the faces of people in the video.
