The former Wolves playmaker, who moved to Nottingham Forest in 2022, opened up about the vile taunts he has received on the pitch and online.
The 24-year-old midfielder revealed he was first racially abused while playing football at school.
He said: “They almost make you feel different to other people, just because of the colour of your skin, which is obviously wrong in so many ways because everyone is human and everyone’s blood is red.
“When I first received racial abuse, I was quite immature and didn’t know how to handle it, but as I’ve got older and spoken to more people, that’s helped me massively on how to deal with things in the right way and get support.”
He was speaking as Nottinghamshire Police promoted Black History Month which runs throughout October.
Gibbs-White told how he deals with racists and so-called 'keyboard warriors' who post sick comments online.
