## Resource

In July 2005, 18-year-old Anthony Walker was attacked in a Liverpool park in a crime that shocked the UK and became one of Britain’s most devastating modern hate crime cases. Anthony was intelligent, ambitious, and preparing for university when a night out with friends turned into something unthinkably violent. As the investigation unfolded, detectives uncovered a brutal attack driven by racism — and a case that would spark national outrage, soul-searching, and calls for change. This week on Seeing Red we examine the life of Anthony Walker, the events leading up to his murder, the police investigation, and the lasting impact his death had on his family and the wider community.
