Barack Obama to introduce Cartoon Network anti-bullying documentary
Barack Obama is to give a televised introduction to Cartoon Network's documentary Stop Bullying: Speak Up.
President Obama will open Sunday's premiere of the film with a call to end bullying nationwide by encouraging children to have a more open mind to their fellow students.
BMX bike rider Matt Wilhelm, basketball star Lisa Leslie and NASCAR stars Jeff Burton, Joey Logano and Trevor Bayne also appear in the documentary.
Obama's involvement is just his latest attempt to help end childhood bullying in the US. The politician held a teen bullying summit in Washington DC last year and also recently met with Lady GaGa following the suicide of a 14-year-old fan.
Stop Bullying: Speak Up airs Sunday, March 18 at 5.30/4.30c on Cartoon Network. It was also uploaded onto the film's official website, Facebook, iTunes and YouTube.
