"Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley defended her controversial remarks about the Civil War, which were accused of minimizing the role of slavery, by telling CNN that she “had Black friends growing up.”
During CNN’s town hall with Haley on Thursday, moderator Erin Burnett said:
I want to ask you about something that’s been a challenge for your campaign over the past week, and this of course is referring back to New Hampshire, where you were asked to explain the cause of the Civil War. You obviously did not mention slavery, and afterwards you came up, you said that was a mistake, in fact you said it should have been the first thing that you said. So you did come out and say that. Chris Christie, though, came out and said that you gave that answer not because you’re, in his words, dumb or racist, but because you’re, quote, “unwilling to offend anyone by telling truth.” What do you say to that?"
