American gymnast Suni Lee, an Olympic gold medal winner and the first Hmong American to compete in the Olympics, said she was pepper-sprayed in a racist incident while in Los Angeles for her stint on « Dancing with the Stars. »
Lee was waiting for a ride after a night out with a group of girlfriends who were all of Asian descent, she told PopSugar in an interview. She said a car drove by and the people in it started shouting racist slurs like « ching chong, » and telling the girls to « go back to where they came from, » according to the article.
