Haley says 'New South' can lead nation in race relations

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Gov. Nikki Haley said Wednesday that South Carolina has shown that racial progress comes from listening to, not shouting at, one another. Noting the deaths of unarmed black men in cities across the country, Haley told the National Press Club in the nation’s capital that black lives do matter. But they’ve been “disgracefully jeopardized” by the Black Lives Matter movement “that has laid waste” to Ferguson, Missouri, and Baltimore, she said to applause. South Carolina’s first minority governor called the riots in those communities senseless, saying they primarily harmed black residents and the businesses that serve them.
