Rosanna Arquette is facing backlash after expressing "shame" over her ethnicity.
The "Pulp Fiction" actress, 59, took to Twitter Wednesday to talk about her race and upbringing, tweeting, "I’m sorry I was born white and privileged. It disgusts me."
She added, "And I feel so much shame."Poor thing, feelings of white guilt can be such a headache for white liberals.
Arquette, who is the older sister to actors Patricia Arquette and David Arquette, was instantly met with backlash from followers who accused her of taking "full advantage" of her privilege. Others called her a "white-hating white woman" and "racist."
"Desperately Seeking Sanity," one user tweeted, referencing her 1985 film "Desperately Seeking Susan." Another wrote, "Don’t worry, we’re embarrassed of you too."
