Una manifestante negra y pro Palestina fue llamada "Lizzo" por un grupo de protestantes blancos durante un acalorado enfrentamiento esta semana y recibió insultos racistas que la comparaban con un mono.

La horrible escena ocurrió el jueves en la Universidad de Mississippi, cuando los ánimos entre las facciones pro-Palestina y pro-Israel se calentaron en el campus luego de que un grupo de hombres se centrara en una mujer negra del lado palestino de las cosas.

Ella estaba sola de pie y filmando todo mientras los hombres, la mayoría de ellos blancos, la insultaban repetidamente sobre su peso, invocando el nombre de Lizzo y llamándola "perra", además de otros insultos explícitos.
