When a 'big Black kid' pushed nerdy Vivek Ramaswamy in school: Unpacking his rant against American culture

Vivek Ramaswamy was pushed down the stairs in his early school by a 'big Black boy' following which his school was changed. ​In his book, he did not recount the incident kindly and identified himself as a high-achieving nerdy Indian kid. "...a big Black kid thought it would be amusing to push a nerdy high-achieving Indian kid down the stairs. Whether our races were relevant, I don’t know, but I’ve learned that others think it’s part of these stories," he wrote.
