Twitter Racism Sparks Outrage

By: Alex Olivares

Nina Davuluri was the first Indian-American to be crowned Miss America, but numerous Twitter comments denied her American identity. One tweet declared, “Miss America is a terrorist.”

Being American is not determined by the color of your skin but by your contributions to society, making Davuluri more American than any racist on Twitter.
