Iran Press/ Iran news: The departure of black staff from the White House in recent months has been so obvious that one current and former White House official has referred to the event as Blaxit.
"Kazem Gharibabadi," Vice-President of the Judiciary for International Affairs and Secretary of the I.R. of Iran's High Council for Human Rights, twitted on Thursday: "The exodus of African American staffers from the White House #Blaxit is emblematic of the systematic racial discrimination against non-white ethnic minorities. They describe the work environment in the W.H. with little support from their superiors and fewer chances for promotion."
Since the beginning of this year, at least 21 black employees have left the White House or plan to leave soon.
