#RACISM FACT CHECK:
1)Nikki Haley says America is NOT a #racist country & cites SC as an example.
I led a @NAACP 800 mile march against #PoliceBrutality that turned into a 1000 mile march.
Why? Because her staff demanded we march an EXTRA 200 miles AROUND the KKK—
in SC.

2) Then Gov. Haley & her law enforcement went out of their way to provide security—after the Charleston 9 assassinations. They insisted we avoid the original march route because our safety could not be assured. The VIOLENT threat of racism was said to be real—in America and SC.
3) Nikki Haley detracts from her leadership then by understating the violent racism of this country—then and now. Her applause line obscures the real threats Black people and so many others face not merely marching but living.
4) Thousands of people of all races, ethnicities, backgrounds and faith traditions marched a THOUSAND miles in grueling heat for 40 days. Gov Haley provided security, but they were fearless—in the face undeniable racism.
