The thing is, you have proof that you have black genes in you. Rachel does not.

There’s no way to tell from this case because she wasn’t brave enough to say that about herself. Trans people don’t pretend their bodies aren’t the wrong gender.
She is bullshit. Total bullshit. Hugely offensive and weird. And also how come no one called her on it. Did she live somewhere far away from where anyone knew her that no one knew. Also, her husband - how, did he not call her on it/stay with her? So mostly I am a baffled white woman. I get away with shit for sure - so…
She exploited her privilege to the detriment of *actual* black people and this is no doubt batshit crazy. -white Irish arse haver
This is comedy gold. Or comedy blue. The more I look at it the harder it is to tell.
White female commentator here. SING IT.
Crazy huh? That must have been her Marisa Tomei phase. She’s like Zelig!
She posted images of her black adopted sister that claimed she was her daughter.
She posted images of a black man she claimed was her father.
She was doing more than trying to pass, she was sucking other people into a conspiracy.
I’m logging the fuck off.
I wish I could say that I’m surprised by the amount of people defending her but I can’t. White women can pretty much get away with anything. Must be nice. *waits for angry white female commentators to complain*
She wrote a lot about “black families like [hers]” for her local paper/blog
Starred for that last sentence, because damn.
Dolezal graduated from Howard with her Masters in Fine Art in 2002
The difference is making up an entire fake life history and fake family for the purpose of getting employment and acclamation.
YUUUP. Caution, this is an opinion of a very white dude with very 2B hair, but appropriating Black women’s struggles to advance your own personal profile isn’t exactly selfless. Whether she’s a “bad person” or not doesn’t change the fact that what she did is a very bad and unacceptable thing.
Dolezal has also reported nine
alleged hate crimes to the police in the past 10 years because of her racial identity.
Because she’s LYING ABOUT BEING BLACK.
