Soul singer Lionel Richie‘s 18-year-old daughter is speaking out about racism on the newest issue of Complex Magazine.
As cover girl, Sophie Richie reveals that people make racist comments around her because they don’t realize she’s black.
“I’m very light, so some people don’t really know that I’m black,” she told Complex. “I’ve been in situations where people will say something kind of racist, and I’ll step in and they’ll be like, ‘Oh, well, you’re light.’”
“That still doesn’t cut it, buddy,” Sofia says.. “It’s 2016 — you better get your s–t together before you get slapped out here.”
