Rachel Dolezal details her journey to becoming 'woke soul sista' in new memoir about race

Rachel Dolezal is still "unapologetically black.”

Her new memoir, "In Full Color: Finding My Place in a Black and White World," details her journey from a poor white girl in Montana to what she refers to as a "woke soul sista" working in Washington.

Dolezal, who pretended to be a black woman for years before her parents outed her as white in 2015, writes that she realized early on in life that she needed to free her inner blackness, in the memoir obtained by the Daily Mail.

"I'd stir the water from the hose into the earth... and make thin, soupy mud, which I would then rub on my hands, arms, feet, and legs," she writes.

Is this a manuscript that a publisher actually bought, or is this a vanity, “pay us $1,000 and we’ll print 200 copies” deal?

News reports about a month ago state that the only job offers she has gotten are those for reality TV series or porn.

This one is tough for liberals: white woman appropriating Negro culture, but she is a leftist, so that makes it OK? Shouldn’t she be so disgusted by her own bigotry that her head should explode?

A good review here

It begins
Unfortunately, America is a place with weak protections for the average worker. Because of this reality, I’ve been forced to spend the last two days reading Rachel Dolezal’s new autobiography,

So her book isn’t a best seller??? LOL.

So nobody wants to read the life story of a wanna be Negress??? Nobody wants to know about her life story, her life journey that got her to this point??? Really??? No curiosity about her affinity for the black community or any of that?? No curiosity as to why she has now legally changed her name to some African sounding name???? No curiosity as to how she had been a high official in an NAACP chapter but apparently was forced out when it was discovered she was not really black???

Nobody has any desire to read her take on all of what she’s been through?? I wonder if her book is a sympathetic tale in which she is a victim somehow????

Isn’t she going to go on the Today Show, Good Morning America, etc. and plug her book??? Isn’t the media giving her airtime?? If not then by God that proves they are racist!!! (sarcasm)

That’s only because people don’t know her full story. It’s captivating! From Wikipedia: “Dolezal has said she was born and lived in a teepee, recounting how the family hunted for their food with bow and arrow.”
