I feel sorry for this guy....this case is common when mixed race children are raised and bought up in white areas of England. Probably haven't been exposed to his black side...doesn't know the culture. Probably doesn't have black or Asian friends. He doesn't feel like he belongs anywhere. His white in brown skin technically and it's sad. He needs to move to a area of England where it's more ethically diverse. Let's be honest England is racist. But if you live in cities like London, Birmingham and Manchester you won't be exposed too much of the racist bullshit. You need to move to areas where you be more accepted as a person of colour that's the truth. I wish him and his partner all the best.

We’re doing this young man a major disservice if we allow him to think his race is the whole reason he is unlucky in life. It appears he’s had a tough childhood which happens to many regardless of ethnicity. He hasn’t had consistent positive parenting. He’s in “attack” mode. Showing any vulnerability (not weakness) or kindness, connection would be perceived as weakness by him and may have led to bad experiences when he was younger. His ethnicity is never going to change. Skill sets and expectations can though. Best of luck to him

One of the reasons why this poor guy is angry because his mum was a drug addict and seen her get beaten up...then tragically she died.....he was subjected to racial abuse from a young age from children his own age...he was bought up in a predominantly white racist area and has not had the opportunity to be exposed to other cultures even though his of mixed heritage. Who wouldn't be angry and confused?! People who say multiculturalism doesn't work is ignorant, uneducated and is not willing to have the opportunities to mix with other races and learn about other cultures.

You're just assuming he's acting the victim cause he's black. He's literally just talking about his life. The comments on here just go to prove how racist English people are. A young guy who had a really tough life and is now bettering himself should be an inspirational story but nah, still have a bunch of sad losers making shitty comments. And ye wonder why there's a problem. Sad.
@I'MDEprEssEdaNDqUIrkY Well that's a bit of a shit response, why you even bothered to reply with just that comment is surprising, tell you what, why don't YOU SHUT UP!
Don't get mad at my below comments, I'm just giving you my own experience as a mixed race 32 year old male (white mother, black father). You will do significantly better in life (career wise) if you generally behave in a manner that is familiar to MIDDLE CLASS white people. If you want a well paid job in the UK, you are almost guaranteed to have to go via some kind of white middle manager type, who holds the key to your potential employment. Understand that the black culture you were raised with will have given you mannerisms that may seem strange to middle class white people. You also really need to listen to the manner in which you speak. For example, the way that young black people in London talk, their pronunciation of words and the phrases they use like "U GET ME FAM"... Understand that the accent sounds HORRIFYING to middle class white people, and they likely associate it with knife crime, which means you won't be offered the job...There is a famous saying which goes "When in Rome, Do as the Romans do". And I see a lot of black/mixed race people who forget that they are in Rome.
I seriously don’t understand racism at all people are people we all bleed. I’m 59, I was engaged for years to a Chinese man 1975 onwards but we did get nasty comments I found hard to deal with. My eldest sons god mum Is a beautiful black lady I lost contact with. I have no black friends now but would love some. But I have experience black peoples block against me sadly. I guess they think all are racist but I am not.
er.. black people are not items for you to possess . and the fact that your got to thought they a black person didn't want to be buddy being he thought you were racist, you just told on yourself.
Racism is a lot easier to understand in the light of personal experience. I know a guy who was drafted into the army and was sent to Vietnam and people that look Chinese and Asian shot at him and killed all his friends and somehow he was so tough and so mean by the time he left they couldn't kill him too. Then when he was home if he was someplace and an Asian person came there he would tell them to leave him alone and go away. So where does this person's rights as a mental patient with someone with a disability from the army collide with the rights of other people to be Asian?
We had terrible problems when we moved to a village in Wiltshire when i was 8 in 1958 and we are white english. So much prejudice until a teacher at the local primary school wrote a letter to the local newspaper. We were originally from London and regarded as foreigners because we didnt come from Wiltshre. One of our cousins who lived in London got called a dirty jew frequently and you wouldnt know he was jewish to look at, it was because he wore a kippah sometimes. So its not all about colour.
I think it's quite ignorant that you wrote 'it's not all about colour', almost dismissing how much a person's skin colour/ethnicity can make them a target and at risk. Yes unfortunately, xenophobes can and do discriminate against anything remotely different but you can't deny the significance of skin colour/ethnicity is a very significant factor. Even though you had problems in the village, its undeniable that you had a privilege because you were White British... just imagine if you were BAME
@Bear Phantom No but there are prejudices of all kinds not just colour. Personally i dont understand colour prejudice when so many white people cant wait to get a suntan the darker the better. I have friends of different ethnic backgrounds who have never experienced any racism and if anybody said anything insulting to them whilst i was with them i would jump in and have a right go. I have seen plenty of "racism between Asians (pakistani bangladeshi indian) and afro caribbeans and somalians and others What i am fed up with is the "only whites are racist" crap. Btw my only child was mixed race now 51 years old (half indian) he has never had any problems and he grew up in a small village in Wiltshire. All the girls were after him.
Your 100% right. My mum, Jamaican could only find accommodation with white Irish in the 70’s. The Irish were treated horribly so were white northern who came down south. My mum could tell you stories

No one should feel sorry for someone who has lied on a program to make out he's a good lad when hes anything but he made my life hell among others he was friends with, to which basically chased me and my siblings out of school plenty police reports and school teacher statements from the school psychologist to back the emotional scars and some actual physical scars caused by him personally. The boy who supposedly broke his nose was another black boy called kasper and he didn't break his nose. Josh if you read this yeh i have a whole books worth of physiological scars you and the rest of Bradford primary including teachers and some of Holsworthy community college your prejudice against Scottish, wasn't just you but I'm still haunted by the memories of you and your friends who made my life hard to live for my whole childhood. I will publish a book when I'm good and ready I remember everything you and yours did to me and my siblings
His girlfriend loves him so much and he loves her so much Brilliant documentary. I’m mixed race my self but I’ve never had any issues with my race I’ve always just fitted in with everyone and treated everyone with respect and that’s exackly what I got back. I understand there a minnority of people that are judgemental but I’ve always thought that’s there problem not mine, so hopefully josh finds his way in boxing and gives him and his family the life he deserves and he could one day move out of Devon and move to a city where it’s more diverse and he can experience a diffrent way of life.
Why does he feel so upset about two ancient figures of black men on a church clock. It's him that calls them golliwog's, but I doubt that many other people think of them as golliwog's.
I'm mixed race and I'm raised by my mother who is black but I think alot of blacks feel sorry for them selves in my opinion but of hardships and they blame it on being black I also seen white guys get bullied in black areas work both ways
@Belize Boy D no response because am right uk got raised plenty of times but they adapted and made inventions to help them protect themselves africans just stayed in there huts
I'm mixed race and I grew up in Birmingham and still live here. I never really experienced any racism and I was friends from people of all different races. There wasn't that much racism but when there was it was from people of all ethnicity. I can't talk for everybody but from my experience many people of all races experience racism. Racism was usually due to people just disliking each other. There was no blatantly racist person who hated everyone of a particular colour that I knew of. I just stayed out of trouble and if anyone tried to start anything with me I would ignore them. I never had to fight anybody. This video does come across as its not my fault that I did bad things it's my skin colours fault. 2 years sounds a bit much but it isn't elaborated or given any context so I assume it was a fair sentence. Sometimes I get tired of people saying how tough their life is and it's their skin colours fault. I'll admit I have had it easy but I think this constant I'm this colour and this is why I am a victim because of it. Its like these people try to go through their entire lives and pick out every bit to add to a sob story. I'm not denying that racism doesn't exist. However, every race experiences racism and every race has been slaves. These videos just divide us even more.
You know when your mum used to guilt you into eating your veggies because "there are people starving in Africa"...? Well this comment is the equivalent to that. Literally nobody cares if it is better or worse elsewhere, they just care about their experiences.
Karen Diaz it is harder for black people than any other race if I walked in a shop with a black Asian or white east European the black person would be followed so stop the shit about other minority's as long as their skin is white they are okay
Totally feel you brother..most people chose not to understand us.. The truth is it's OK to be anybody, white,Biracial,black and Latino whatever. The may point is always being responsible with our choices and to be sincere with our intentions.. I'd admit many dark-skinned black fathers don't really care for their biracial sons or have really bad relationships with them..The truth is they often secretly(with mental dishonesty or morally ambiguity) want their biracial sons to compensation for their fathers who rejected their black woman first.. That's why black fathers develop grudges with their biracial sons when they're with a white woman themselves,totally it's hypocritical!! I'll admit as a biracial male I am more attracted to white women and I know my father hates me for it..There's indeed a lot of contradictions in interracial relationships and strangely many white women who prefer dark-skinned black not only reject white men but also belittle biracial men,it totally weird!! As far as this notion of having the best of 2 worlds because is your mixed is a lie or an illusion for most of us biracial guys,this "one-drop rule" contradicts that... Mmm..yes it might be true that most black fathers don't really care about their mixed kids as much,especially biracial sons..Infact I think most black people are not genuine about social harmony,it feels the only thing they want is just a lighter-skinned opposite sex partner... You might have a point,never saw it like that growing but my experiences as a biracial person as led me to this conclusion.. My point is if dark-skinned black fathers don't want their sons to be with white women,then they themselves should stay with dark-skinned black women otherwise it doesn't make any sense this contradiction on their part.. And those white women who only date dark-skinned black men are indeed fools in rejecting not only white men but even biracial men!!!

Obviously his life would be easier if he grew up in a more ethically diverse city like London or Birmingham. He likely wasn’t raised around many black or Asian people so he hasn’t got anyone to share his experiences with
@Tyson King I believe you are correct m8. In this day and age it is possible for anyone to make it in life as long as they work for it irrespective of their skin colour. Btw I am a black man and I have suffered from racist abuse in the past but I've never let that hold me back mentally. Btw I dunno why everyone is acting like 99% of white British people are racist. In my experience it is only a small minority and you get those fukheads in all types of people groups. Seems like the left wing media want a scape goat for no reason and they chosen the white man. We are living in strange times indeed

You're just assuming he's acting the victim cause he's black. He's literally just talking about his life. The comments on here just go to prove how racist English people are. A young guy who had a really tough life and is now bettering himself should be an inspirational story but nah, still have a bunch of sad losers making shitty comments. And ye wonder why there's a problem. Sad.

Feel bad for him I went through something similar when I was younger. It’s hard being in a area where you’re a minority.

Good luck buddy. You got a good attitude. Believe in yourself and you will be okay
Josh you've done wonders mate. Keep that focus up and I wish you the glory man.
Don't get mad at my below comments, I'm just giving you my own experience as a mixed race 32 year old male (white mother, black father).
You will do significantly better in life (career wise) if you generally behave in a manner that is familiar to MIDDLE CLASS white people. If you want a well paid job in the UK, you are almost guaranteed to have to go via some kind of white middle manager type, who holds the key to your potential employment.
Understand that the black culture you were raised with will have given you mannerisms that may seem strange to middle class white people.
You also really need to listen to the manner in which you speak. For example, the way that young black people in London talk, their pronunciation of words and the phrases they use like "U GET ME FAM"... Understand that the accent sounds HORRIFYING to middle class white people, and they likely associate it with knife crime, which means you won't be offered the job...There is a famous saying which goes "When in Rome, Do as the Romans do". And I see a lot of black/mixed race people who forget that they are in Rome.
This video is great in inspiration for me I'm mixed and my name is also joshua

I seriously don’t understand racism at all people are people we all bleed. I’m 59, I was engaged for years to a Chinese man 1975 onwards but we did get nasty comments I found hard to deal with. My eldest sons god mum Is a beautiful black lady I lost contact with. I have no black friends now but would love some. But I have experience black peoples block against me sadly. I guess they think all are racist but I am not.
er.. black people are not items for you to possess . and the fact that your got to thought they a black person didn't want to be buddy being he thought you were racist, you just told on yourself.
Why did you lose contact with your son's godmum?
Why would you "love" some black friends in particular? Sounds like you're catching Pokemon.
Racism is a lot easier to understand in the light of personal experience. I know a guy who was drafted into the army and was sent to Vietnam and people that look Chinese and Asian shot at him and killed all his friends and somehow he was so tough and so mean by the time he left they couldn't kill him too. Then when he was home if he was someplace and an Asian person came there he would tell them to leave him alone and go away. So where does this person's rights as a mental patient with someone with a disability from the army collide with the rights of other people to be Asian?
Did your China husband eat cats
We had terrible problems when we moved to a village in Wiltshire when i was 8 in 1958 and we are white english. So much prejudice until a teacher at the local primary school wrote a letter to the local newspaper. We were originally from London and regarded as foreigners because we didnt come from Wiltshre.
One of our cousins who lived in London got called a dirty jew frequently and you wouldnt know he was jewish to look at, it was because he wore a kippah sometimes. So its not all about colour.
I think it's quite ignorant that you wrote 'it's not all about colour', almost dismissing how much a person's skin colour/ethnicity can make them a target and at risk. Yes unfortunately, xenophobes can and do discriminate against anything remotely different but you can't deny the significance of skin colour/ethnicity is a very significant factor. Even though you had problems in the village, its undeniable that you had a privilege because you were White British... just imagine if you were BAME
@@dunyasimoes3807
Privilege really being bullied and called names everyday for 7 years thats privilege i dont think so.
@Bear Phantom
No but there are prejudices of all kinds not just colour. Personally i dont understand colour prejudice when so many white people cant wait to get a suntan the darker the better. I have friends of different ethnic backgrounds who have never experienced any racism and if anybody said anything insulting to them whilst i was with them i would jump in and have a right go. I have seen plenty of "racism between Asians (pakistani bangladeshi indian) and afro caribbeans and somalians and others
What i am fed up with is the "only whites are racist" crap. Btw my only child was mixed race now 51 years old (half indian) he has never had any problems and he grew up in a small village in Wiltshire. All the girls were after him.
@Bear Phantom
What a load of bullsh%t
I dont care about colour religion whatever I'm with the late MLK.
Your 100% right. My mum, Jamaican could only find accommodation with white Irish in the 70’s. The Irish were treated horribly so were white northern who came down south. My mum could tell you stories
Amazing series, I just wish there were more than 3 episodes. It'a a shame.

Belize Boy D So ur saying Black people should just move to areas with black people. Then how r other areas gonna become more diverse
Imma follow this guys career, good luck to him, as long as his mind is right and he can find some connection with the most high there is nothing he can't achieve.
No one should feel sorry for someone who has lied on a program to make out he's a good lad when hes anything but he made my life hell among others he was friends with, to which basically chased me and my siblings out of school plenty police reports and school teacher statements from the school psychologist to back the emotional scars and some actual physical scars caused by him personally. The boy who supposedly broke his nose was another black boy called kasper and he didn't break his nose.
Josh if you read this yeh i have a whole books worth of physiological scars you and the rest of Bradford primary including teachers and some of Holsworthy community college your prejudice against Scottish, wasn't just you but I'm still haunted by the memories of you and your friends who made my life hard to live for my whole childhood. I will publish a book when I'm good and ready I remember everything you and yours did to me and my siblings
Are you being serious?
Good on you cheryl
Against Scottish ??
His girlfriend loves him so much and he loves her so much Brilliant documentary.
I’m mixed race my self but I’ve never had any issues with my race I’ve always just fitted in with everyone and treated everyone with respect and that’s exackly what I got back. I understand there a minnority of people that are judgemental but I’ve always thought that’s there problem not mine, so hopefully josh finds his way in boxing and gives him and his family the life he deserves and he could one day move out of Devon and move to a city where it’s more diverse and he can experience a diffrent way of life.

I'm mixed race and I grew up in Birmingham and still live here. I never really experienced any racism and I was friends from people of all different races. There wasn't that much racism but when there was it was from people of all ethnicity. I can't talk for everybody but from my experience many people of all races experience racism. Racism was usually due to people just disliking each other. There was no blatantly racist person who hated everyone of a particular colour that I knew of. I just stayed out of trouble and if anyone tried to start anything with me I would ignore them. I never had to fight anybody. This video does come across as its not my fault that I did bad things it's my skin colours fault. 2 years sounds a bit much but it isn't elaborated or given any context so I assume it was a fair sentence. Sometimes I get tired of people saying how tough their life is and it's their skin colours fault. I'll admit I have had it easy but I think this constant I'm this colour and this is why I am a victim because of it. Its like these people try to go through their entire lives and pick out every bit to add to a sob story. I'm not denying that racism doesn't exist. However, every race experiences racism and every race has been slaves. These videos just divide us even more.
Name some easier places not in the UK?
You know when your mum used to guilt you into eating your veggies because "there are people starving in Africa"...? Well this comment is the equivalent to that. Literally nobody cares if it is better or worse elsewhere, they just care about their experiences.

Idk why people are saying it's harder if your black or Asian or this or that surely it's hard for any type of minority's grouo
It IS harder I'm general but there are different tiers of struggle. I think people just directly speak about the struggle because it's so prevalent
It's called a joke bro come down
No it's harder for black people more than any other race
Karen Diaz it is harder for black people than any other race if I walked in a shop with a black Asian or white east European the black person would be followed so stop the shit about other minority's as long as their skin is white they are okay
Ricky Hyde have you walked onto a plane in a niquab ? Or a turban No you don’t know they Asian struggle it’s like you want to be the victim
Totally feel you brother..most people chose not to understand us..
The truth is it's OK to be anybody, white,Biracial,black and Latino whatever. The may point is always being responsible with our choices and to be sincere with our intentions..
I'd admit many dark-skinned black fathers don't really care for their biracial sons or have really bad relationships with them..The truth is they often secretly(with mental dishonesty or morally ambiguity) want their biracial sons to compensation for their fathers who rejected their black woman first..
That's why black fathers develop grudges with their biracial sons when they're with a white woman themselves,totally it's hypocritical!!
I'll admit as a biracial male I am more attracted to white women and I know my father hates me for it..There's indeed a lot of contradictions in interracial relationships and strangely many white women who prefer dark-skinned black not only reject white men but also belittle biracial men,it totally weird!!
As far as this notion of having the best of 2 worlds because is your mixed is a lie or an illusion for most of us biracial guys,this "one-drop rule" contradicts that...
Mmm..yes it might be true that most black fathers don't really care about their mixed kids as much,especially biracial sons..Infact I think most black people are not genuine about social harmony,it feels the only thing they want is just a lighter-skinned opposite sex partner...
You might have a point,never saw it like that growing but my experiences as a biracial person as led me to this conclusion..
My point is if dark-skinned black fathers don't want their sons to be with white women,then they themselves should stay with dark-skinned black women otherwise it doesn't make any sense this contradiction on their part..
And those white women who only date dark-skinned black men are indeed fools in rejecting not only white men but even biracial men!!!

@Tyson King I believe you are correct m8. In this day and age it is possible for anyone to make it in life as long as they work for it irrespective of their skin colour. Btw I am a black man and I have suffered from racist abuse in the past but I've never let that hold me back mentally. Btw I dunno why everyone is acting like 99% of white British people are racist. In my experience it is only a small minority and you get those fukheads in all types of people groups.
