Rachel called out Laurence Fox – now she's getting death threats | Metro News
Even if you don’t watch Question Time, you probably saw Rachel Boyle’s heated interaction with Laurence Fox. The clip went viral, amassing thousands of likes and retweets and catapulting the former actor to a moment of infamy. The clash was about Meghan Markle. Laurence Fox said Markle hadn’t been subject to racism, that the accusations of racism were ‘boring’, and then said Rachel herself was racist for saying he was a ‘white, privileged man.’ Rachel called him out on every point, and the interaction blew up. People were passionate – on both sides of the debate – and the university lecturer saw her Twitter follower count rocket to more than 20,000, practically overnight. But, after the initial media storm dies down and those clips stop popping up on the timeline, what is it actually like to go viral for calling out racism on national TV as a black mixed-race woman in the UK?
