    Though I’m sure it’s pretty diluted, Vaughn or Vaughan is typically a Welsh surname.

      Bubba I’m sorry to brake it to you but everyone encounters RACISM in America, including white people.
      The US might actually be the racist capital of the world.
      Racism in America is on the left/right political spectrum. America is in a right vs left RACIAL WAR.
      Americans of color have to put up with racism from the american right wing
      But white people face a lot of racism from the american left. Especially white MEN!
      So you don’t know what you’re talking about.

    • Henry Builder says:

      A good example of racism against people of white color from the american left is left wing black journalist Don Lemon saying that white male immigrants should not be aloud to cross the american border anymore because they represent the biggest terror threat to America.
      Another —- example is the Fresno mass shooting by Kori Ali Muhammad, an african american.
