Comic Terrence Williams humorously rebuked former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley after her feedback about experiencing “racism” resulting from her “brown” pores and skin.
Haley, throughout a joint interview with NBC Information and The Des Moines Register, shared her struggles rising up in a small southern city as the one Indian household.
She recounted incidents of being teased for her pores and skin coloration and the challenges she confronted, together with being disqualified from a magnificence pageant for not becoming into predefined racial classes.
“We were the only Indian family in our small southern town. I was teased every day for being brown. So anyone who wants to question it can go back and look at what I’ve said on how hard it was to grow up in the Deep South as a brown girl,” stated Haley.
“If you want to know what it was like growing up, I was disqualified from a beauty pageant because I wasn’t white or black because they didn’t know where to put me. So look, I know the hardships, the pain that come with racism. It’s the reason that I fight bullies every day when it comes to racism, antisemitism, or hate,” she added.
