A racially charged video involving children has been posted on Facebook and YouTube, drawing a lot of criticism over its content.

A white toddler on her bike is being bullied by too young African American girls. According to Daily Mail, the clip was originally added to Facebook with the title “When white people [expletive] black people off.”

The publication identifies the girl as three-year-old Mackenzie Peterson of Minneapolis. The clip is being shot by the assailants' older brother, who is 12 years old.

He teaches them to grab her arms and hit her, then ask her about it.

“Why you hitting yourself? Why you hitting yourself?” he says while the camera is rolling.

One of his sisters even spits at the victim of the attack. The girl is not a lot older than Peterson, in fact one neighbor describes that she is five years old.
