If there was a gold medal for people who tweet stupid things, Sally Kohn would have more gold medals than anyone on the planet.
Simone Biles won all-around gymnastic gold medal because she is AWESOME and America cheered her as an American.
Congratulations @simonebiles and thank you for inspiring us all. #BlackGirlMagic indeed! ✨ #TeamUSA #rio2016 pic.twitter.com/VhmmopW2AG

Really? #BlackGirlMagic? Why does Sally care about her color? And it wasn’t magic that won the gold, it was skill, ability and hard work. STAHP.

Truth. She seems to see color before she sees the person – it’s a shame because this person is freakin’ AMAZING.
she's incredibly awesome
Plz leave race out of it

Simone IS incredible and yet somehow Sally found a way to alienate her by race and by sex.
her accomplishment stands on its own. No need to add race to it. Inspiring to everyone.

Absolutely.
She inspired our country as an AMERICAN. We are all proud of her and celebrate that we can call her a fellow American, stop making this about a “label.”
