Former MSNBC star Joy Reid has attacked Elvis Presley and claims that the iconic singer's nickname 'The King' is racist.
Reid claimed Presley owed his career to a black woman last week while slamming the Trump Administration's anti-woke crackdown on the Smithsonian museums.
Jabbing her finger as she spoke to journalist Wajahat Ali's The Left Hook, Reid said: '(White men) cant invent anything more than they were originally able to invent good music.
