As a biracial woman who has been shit on by black and white both and who has had to work double time to earn and keep my black card all I can say is F*&^ this B*% I hope she rots in hell. I cannot express the bitter rage I have for this idiotic woman.

the lying and the weak sense of self? the fabricated victimhood...

The woman is delusional. I would wager that were she to have a proper psychiatric evaluation, she would be clinically diagnosed with a major, albeit high-functioning mental illness.

Uh, I IDENTIFY with Elizabeth the Ist but that doesn’t make me royalty.

I don’t know much about Reverb Press, but this is an interesting article. http://reverbpress.com/news/rachel-do…

You hit it right. Her identity and sense of self as a minority during grad school effed up her head. But instead of embracing her German/Czech heritage and her Montana upbringing (all valuable and interesting), she retreated into white guilt.

I wrote this a little earlier in the comments, but this is part of the…

I guess they didn’t have Hot Topic where she grew up.

how is this a ‘jam’? i was so bored i could barely get through the first minute.

Isn’t it like, the UTMOST of white privilege to choose to be a minority? JFC.

Is being from Detroit the, “But I have black friends” card? :p

Looking at Miller, I want to turn this post into a hot mixed people thread. Anyone?

It also speaks volumes to me that all of her pathological lying seems to benefit her in some way, whether it’s attention, pity, status, or employment.

She might be a compulsive liar or something. She probably needs to see a therapist. This isn’t a casual act of idiocy, this is some really strange identity stuff.

I actually meant to reply to someone else, but there is a vast difference between dismissing someone as a “stupid bitch,” and credulously accepting everything they say about themselves, especially when many of those things have already been outed as lies. All we know about this woman right now is that she’s been lying…

Oh my god I had a World Music professor in college who was exactly like this lady. White-as-a-cracker, middle-aged, balding self-styled bohemian man who married an asian lady, put on his first dashiki and just never looked in a mirror again. He would talk about all the international travel destinations he’d been to…

I do enjoy some theoretical justification or framework for work, but I often feel like it’s best when that informs the work without overtaking it or being the sole reason for it. Ideally, the work should stand on its own with the theory there for me to dig in if I want to, but I find the opposite is often the case…

I haven’t watched this video and have no opinion on it, but I like to call that particular writing style and the art frequently associated with it “11x17 art.” The kind of art you occasionally find somewhere like the Whitney or the New Museum that you look at and think, “huh...” Then you stroll over to the 11x17 title…

I agree; it’s interesting even if a bit cloudy in its specific interpretations. I think the real power of the piece is in how angry the objections to it are. “THIS IS BIZARRE I DON’T UNDERSTAND THIS IS BULLSHIT THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME AND BECAUSE I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT AND IT DOESN’T RESONATE WITH MY PERSONAL…

I feel like her real statement isn’t in the questions she asks or the video itself (which I honestly could not even watch), it’s in the release of this material to the public and their interpretation of it. To me, the real power in her message is simply in the comments to that video. I’m a knee-jerk “BAN ALL THE…

So, do I win by deliberately NOT having watched it?
