Nikki Haley (nonfiction)

“We’re not a racist country ... We’ve never been a racist country.” —Nimarata Nikki Haley.

"To be a Republican candidate in this generation, one must court white nationalists and racists who subscribe to the replacement theory and the belief that people of color are contaminating the blood of whites. This rhetoric is what secures victories within the Republican Party in the age of Trump, and Nikki Haley is appealing to the same audience." —Daniel Kawuma

Nimarata Nikki Haley (née Randhawa; born January 20, 1972) is an American politician and ambassador who served as the 116th governor of South Carolina from 2011 to 2017.
