World Heavyweight Champion Lennox Lewis is shown as he actually is (bottom) and how he may look if he were of a different race (top) through the use of make-up and digital manipulation, in this photomontage taken from a Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) television commercial December 1, 2000. Lennox Lewis, Spice girl Mel B and boxer Naseem Hamed are shown with white skin, and England footballer David Seaman is seen as a black man in the advert to show how opinions may be affected by race. Crime surveys show that every hour, every day there are four incidents of racial harassment or abuse in Britain, something the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) is trying to change with a series of television advertisements launched on Friday.
