I can no longer find it. However, around the time, it was a big deal that she was black, even though they are described as such in the book, and social media was going crazy about SJW shit, and after that interview released it was spread all over the place to demonstrate the point of her being the target the of racism, even when it may not have been intentional. I know about it because several youtubers at the time played it in their videos to make broader points.
If i can find one of the videos that has the clip I will post that if i never find the interview again.

That’s Mack, considering she looked like this during that period of time.
