So I told the UN some personal stories. I told them how my great-grandmother, Mary Thomas, born in 1865, was the child of a slave, just three generations back from me. I grew up in the segregated South; I was bused to a segregated school. On weekends, the Klan burned crosses on lawns in our neighborhood. I shared these stories and others to acknowledge, on the international stage, that I have personally experienced one of America\u2019s greatest imperfections. I\u2019ve seen for myself how the original sin of slavery weaved white supremacy into our founding documents and principles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Thomas-Greenfield faced subsequent backlash over her remarks from a wide range of critics, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realchrisrufo\/status\/1382452748319215617\">Christopher Rufo<\/a>, expert on critical race theory: \u201cYikes, it\u2019s like CCP propaganda, straight out of the American ambassador\u2019s mouth!\u201d<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rachelbovard\/status\/1382397885493432320\">Rachel Bovard<\/a>, policy analyst: \u201cShe\u2019s offering a straight faced apology for America \u2013 still the freest country in the world \u2013 to UN Human Rights Council member countries who execute people for being gay.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NikkiHaley\/status\/1382677319253434372\">Nikki Haley<\/a>, former U.S. ambassador to the U.N.: \u201cThe Biden administration criticizing our country in front of the world\u2019s worst human rights abusers &amp; oppressive regimes is a win for our enemies.
