Racism under Donald Trump

Racism has been a major issue of contention under President Donald Trump administration raising concerns across the world.

He was reported to have called Mexican immigrants criminals and rapists and propose a ban on all Muslims entering the US among others during his campaigns prior to his election into office.

The trend, has, however, continued to his presidency raising eyebrows all over the world.
