Joe Biden introduced a Japanese-American civil rights activist named Karen Narasaki as ‘Karen Nagasaki’ Tuesday, leaving Americans collectively face palming.
Biden was making the introduction during a ceremony to mark the introduction of a law to establish a commission to study the creation of a National Museum of Asian American and Pacific Islander History and Culture.
