Can A Black Person Be Racist? Chimamanda Adichie As A Case Study by Concaholic: 4:32pm On Nov 12, 2016
Popular Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie appeared on BBC program Newsnight, and has sparked debates on if a black person can indeed be racist.

In a debate with the Editor-In-Chief of American Spectator, Robert Emmett Tyrell Jr., Adichie had claimed that Donald Trump was racist, a statement Tyrell had rejected.

In response to Tyrell's rejection, the award-winning author said: "I am sorry... But if you are a white man, you don't get to define what racism is."

Tyrell had tried to explain that racism was a Marxist concept, but that according to Adichie, he couldn't even "open my mouth here because I am a white male."
