Sage Steele Experienced The 'Worst Racism' From Black Folks

Sage Steele Claims She Has Experienced The ‘Worst Racism’ From Black Folks

The ESPN anchor made the remarks during a panel discussion about race and faith.

It seems as if ESPN anchor Sage Steele is continuing her critiques of the Black community by claiming the worst racism she’s received has come from Black folks. On a panel discussion, Under Our Skin, about race and faith, Steele had this to say:

“There are times that I believe that we, as African Americans, can be hypocritical, and that is to not look ourselves in the mirror when we are saying certain things and blaming other groups for one thing when we are doing the exact same thing. … The worst racism that I have received [as a biracial woman married to a white man], and I mean thousands and thousands over the years, is from Black people, who in my mind thought would be the most accepting because there has been that experience. … But even as recent[ly] as the last couple of weeks, the words that I have had thrown at me I can’t repeat here, and it’s 99 percent from people with my skin color. But if a white person said those words to me, what would happen? … How do we, [with Christianity] as our foundation, address this honestly with each other and these communities? Because to me, if we don’t start with ourselves in any issue, how can you point the fingers at somebody else?”

Steele has a history of policing people’s way of protesting issues concerning not just Black people, but other frustrated groups in this country as well. Check out words from her Instagram post below when protest broke out over the Muslim country bans:

She’s even gone as far as to cut off Win Butler, singer of Arcade Fire, when he tried to talk politics at the All-Star Game.
