The real racism surrounding the USDA official who was forced to resign was not what she said. Her explanation that she told the story to explain how she recognized and overcame her won racism is very plausible.
The reaction to the story by the NAACP people in the audience may be racism, and that was the purpose in releasing the video; as a response to the NAACP’s resolution regarding the Tea Party.
However, the real racism was shown when the official claimed she was forced to resign by the White House.
Consider the same scenario, black female USDA official, video of her story about something that happened before she was a USDA official, and her claim that the White House had forced her to resign. Just change the race and perhaps political party of the president.
What do you think would be the response of the media, liberals, the NAACP, etc?
