History has been made as the 1st Miss America of Indian descent was crowned, however, sadly this wonderful moment will be overshadowed by the hatred spewed from intolerant people. Many tweets were spewing racial slurs and remarks about this lovely young woman, I have chosen not to highlight those tweeters because that would be feeding their inner beast. With everything going on in the world, you would think that people would want to just show more love and compassion towards one another despite our differences.
