DANI ALVES has backed ‘leader’ Lewis Hamilton in his fight to end racism.
The Formula 1 star – who could step down at the end of the season – has continued to show his support for the Black Lives Matter movement.
Daniel Ricciardo told that Hamilton’s efforts to stop racism have been eye-opening.
And now Barcelona legend Alves, 37, has praised the 35-year-old as he insisted ‘All Lives Matter’.
Alves, who plays for Sao Paulo, shared a picture of Hamilton to his Instagram page.
The caption read: “We need to follow peacemaking leaders with clever voices of awareness.
“Ma bro @lewishamilton know you have a partner here to reverberate your ideas and voice!
“People need to understand that; LOVE IS LOVE and is within reach of everyone.
“We just need everyday teachers not to be stupid. #Respect #Life #Humanity #Peace #NOMOREWARS #JUSTLOVE #ALLLIVESMATTER #GODBLESSWORLD.”
Hamilton shared the snap to his Instagram page on Tuesday with the caption: “As we continue through the year I can definitely the slowing in momentum of BLM.

“I won’t stop trying to push for change.
“Awareness is where that starts so you’ll see me there each weekend representing. #BlackLivesMatter.”
Hamilton, who recently took his record haul of Grand Prix victories to 93, wore a t-shirt protesting the death of Breonna Taylor in Tuscany.
His t-shirt read: “Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor.”
He has also led by example by kneeling in support of the BLM movement before races.
