    Glad someone finally said that. And disgusted that those not wanting to think about it just down vote you.

    She was wrong to say it. Because she is a public figure and should know it would be taken as an offensive remark by anyone experiencing racism.

    But given the racist sexist crap see faces day in day out in public and on social media.

    And her rapid apology. I can understand how her personnel feeling may get a little out of wak on the subject every now and then.

    I am white so never experience it myself. I have seen it when my wife has been treated bad. Not in general only when folks didnt knew I was with her watching.

    The folks that critisize her. Are really unlikely to recognise how much stress someone in her passion face day in day out. And really need to consider how little stress it take for them to make the odd unwise comment.
