Boxer Sammy Leone is a proud indigenous man who uses his boxing as a platform to help Australia's youth discover their cultural identity through sharing their story. This is a thought-provoking episode which will hopefully lead to amicable debate and open discussion.
The operator of The Boss Boxing in Brisbane, Sammy's own career saw him training in the Australian development squad at the Australian Institute of Sport as a young man. This experience along with 90 amateur fights, and several professional bouts and a State Boxing Title put him in a respected position to help others faced with the same challenges he faced growing up.
Sammy now works in the education system and sees preservation and sharing of culture as a key motivator to what he does. His shirt says it all, "Yarns Heal". He wants to help educate others about why the injustice of the past should matter, and how education can build a pathway to reconciliation and healing for all generations involved.
