"She grew up in a nation where people of her race were slaves"
No. She did not. Nor did she grow up during a time when blacks could not vote, or were discriminated against by law.
She got into an Ivy League school with average high school grades. Maybe she won a lottery?
What the hell has she had to complain about during her adult life?
Look, I'll cut her some slack and just assume she was shooting off her mouth and not expressing any deep political or philosophical conviction.
