Once broke a schoolmate's nose for using a racial slur, reveals former US President Obama

Former US President Barack Obama on Tuesday (local time) said that he once broke a schoolmate's nose after the then-friend used a racial slur during a locker room fight. According to The Hill, the 44th US President shared the experience in an episode of his Spotify podcast with Bruce Springsteen, "Renegades," released Monday (local time).

"Listen, when I was in school, I had a friend. We played basketball together," Obama told the "Born in the USA" singer during a wide-ranging conversation on race.
