While being secretly filmed another black actor who also appears to be waiting asks them to translate some of the comments he has received on his Facebook page as he has just moved to Lithuania and doesn&#39;t know the language. The friendly smiles and helpful expressions on the faces of the participants soon turn to shock and anguish as they start to read the abuse (like &quot;monkey&quot;, &quot;go back to Africa&quot; and &quot;slave&quot;) he has unwittingly received. LŽTS released the video along with a website to raise awareness of the effect online abuse has on people and how they can report it.
