Because she benefited financially and professionally by using the appearance of a POC, appropriating their lived experiences, while retaining the ability to set it aside it at any time and reassume the privilege of being white. She also lied, appropriated the lifestyles of other groups and appears to have faked death…

I wonder about her husband, who’s black and apparently attended Howard too. So did he know her back when she was white? Was he ok with her reverse passing?

Watch how this is all somehow going to end up being black people’s fault. All the “reverse racism” (the only kind that matters!) she suffered at Howard or them refusing to “accept” her or some such nonsense. Somehow they will find a way to put this pathological narcissist’s bullshit on us. Just look at all the people…

Some other sites have reported that police think it’s likely that she sent herself racially motivated hate mail (like pictures of being lynched, etc.), possibly for attention (?), and it’s not like she’s just appropriating hairstyles and clothing, but tweeting and talking things based on cultural experiences she did…

claimed to be black to several people, claimed an adopted black brother was her son, darkened her skin, said she was black on a job application, said she was black and referred to herself as black to people in person and on social media, introduced a rando black dude as her father to colleages as well as students.

Scroll down a bit, the post clearly states he’s her father. If it is referring to another man that is confusing to the point of deliberate. Also safe to assume she has control over what Spokane NAACP is posting.

No reason? NO REASON?

Take a look at some of her past FB & Twitter posts. In one she’s claiming the black guy in a “family” picture she posted was her dad, talking about how watching ‘12 Years a Slave” reminded her of when she was little she made corn husk dolls like the character in the movie but with it’s hair in braids like her…

I’m Black and have hung around white people with mostly Black friends before. They don’t wear wigs and nap up their hair texture and say they are wearing their hair “natural.” They don’t darken their skin 4 shades and keep it that way (god knows how) all year long. They don’t claim Black people who they aren’t related…

I believe she may be mentally ill.

This is too long, but I have Thoughts. (I’m in the greys though, so no one will see this anyway).

Her tweets and reaction to the reporter directly questioning seem to throw that out. But yes. Emma Stone is clearly perfect.

More like Fifty Shades of Bronzer

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.

Apparently she has pics on social media id’ing an older Black gentleman as her father.

Fifty shades of WTF.

Dolezal’s reverse passing—new term! new term!

She wrote a lot about “black families like [hers]” for her local paper/blog

That hair takes effort. She was definitely trying to do something.

Literally how did nobody who knew this chick call her out on this nonsense? This went on for years!!
